I agree with shenske absolutely. Promotions should always be agreed by all available admins. Never forget we got a democracy here or sth like that. Except for our absolute leader snowcone. May god bless our dignified Führer! ;D |

Wow I can't believe I didn't notice what some of those look and layout settings were before. The almighty quick reply box is now in use! :D I do agree that we should come to some sort of agreement beforehand too. Last time we made new forum admins (me included) I assumed it was a bigger process. |

Oops. Emphasis added. I guess I'll play by my own rules in the future. --- Quote from: Doom --- --- Quote from: tiktektak ---As I posted in the thread I'd suggest to put them in the Global moderator group and just give them access to post/thread editing and ban stuff.... A yes and only seasoned users I suppose would be good. By the way I just looked through our member groups and saw that of our almost 4000 users only around 25 have more than 250 posts and only 85 have more then 50 posts. ;D Talking about regular users.... EDIT: I still think a redone activation process (security questions and stuff) would keep most bots away... --- End quote --- We all know how busy Snowcone is, and we don't know how much effort it takes to implement additional security. For new (forum only) admins, the only thing it takes is Snowcone's approval, and perhaps a rule that nobody goes to forum admin without 3 existing mods supporting their promotion. This will be a voluntary position obviously, with no requirements for anything else. Should they be a full forum admin (I think that would be equal to all non-cover posting admins we have right now)? We could make a new group that can't do the more major things like edit permissions for added security with this new idea. Also, if they don't already, all current Gurus should probably have the ability to ban people. --- End quote --- |

Lets count: 1 z0mbiew0lf suggested 2 Doom promoted 3 Shenke didn't disagree ;D I'll promise to behave well. |
