How about Fender starts making some people here moderators? For those who dont know what a moderator is, it is a person that has given special perminissions by the admistrator/s to lock/delete/move posts and so on. making sure spam in deleted and so on. Keeping forums clean and working :)

It would be great if these forums started to be online 24/7, especially for all of us European users. The times are obviesly made for American timezones. If you just give moderator to the right people it will make these forums more self running also. Unless Fender can hook us up with moderators working in Fender or something.

As a example on how good it is working:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am myself the creator of a forum, its only for a gaming clan but still relativly big. I have 4 fellow admistrators ( not asking for fender to give out Admistration here lol) and we have plently of Good working moderators. We admistrators never ever have to check the forum for spam and simular things because we have good working moderators active on a daily bases dooing theyr job. Moderators also live in different timezones so it gets automaticly better. Moderators makes forums better!

Long post sorry but as i said if the right people here can get moderator it would be awesome.

Thoughts? questions?

probably a decent idea which i'm sure will happen sometime in the not so distant future.. i also think there needs to be an easier way to report spam besides emailing you guys, like a report spam button or something, but just an idea

great forum though, keep it up

I'm up with that. I would never have the time to moderate. Judging by the number of posts incoming, that would be a full time assignment; depending on the number of moderators.

We've discussed this quite a few times so I'd ask that you review previous posts. We can't directly equip non-employee users with moderation tools since this is a corporate forum. But we can work on making self-moderation and spam-reporting functions significantly better ... and I do have some great plans in place in that area.

The more active moderators the better. Ofc moderators wont make these forums absolutly perfect but it would make them much better. And possibly take away that horrible time limit :shock:
