I am starting the push to get Eagles Lover to be the mod. It was his idea,its only fair that he should be a moderator. Its his forum.

Actually, we have been requesting a sports forum for about 7 years and more than a few have asked. It's not just 1 persons forum. It is a forum for all of us.

Forum shows no alternate mods and only Justin as the main mod of the forum :p. Don't moderators only have the power to lock/edit/etc threads in the forums they have been given permission in?
In a word nope. Why do you think tmpchaos See Profile said this; "Trust me... there are other mods lurking around in here."

That whole suggestion of a forum process simply got the forum created, not voted upon who should control it. Moderators/Admins on anything need to have gained trust from everyone. Hence why moderators are DRAFTED... not invited (from the FAQ).

To be honest, I haven't seen anything in this forum yet that I felt the need to hey-mod, even from the most passionate fans. Sports fans will disagree loudly about who's going to win a game or whatever, but that's the whole point of talking about sports most of the time. And I think most of the people here are mature enough to not take it as a personal attack if someone puts down their team.

I don't think that this forum needs that much moderation.
Go Jets!
Yep.
Actually, I would say the forum is running much better than what those who "Objected" ever expected. Those who said no way to a sports forum because they said it would never be civilized have been proved wrong already.

But with all that said, excessive profanity and personal attacks ( that go way beyond trash talking ) shouldn't be tolerated and from I have seen so far, it isn't. And that's good.
Everything seems to be working great!

Thumbs up Sport Fans!!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19130683 Sun, 23 Sep 2007 17:53:33 EDT Re: Forum Rules http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19122344 pcdebb :

Am I the only one that thinks its fair to have the founder of this idea be one of the mods. Everyone knows who I am talking about and I think he would make a great mod, or at least a co or semi mod.
No, because then that would create such a backlash for all the other forums that were created from an idea from members. I think I would be a great mod too, hell i've admined entire forums before, but just because he had the idea doesnt make it "fair" for him to be. sorry to sound mean and I have nothing against him or anyone on the site for that matter.

Justin will use the "sky finger" as he sees fit I'm sure.

No, I mean the person who suggested the idea, I think it was less than a month ago.
While we're at it, we should also make Michael Vick president of a dog kennel and OJ Simpson should do public speaking on domestic abuse. Oh, and Terrel Owens should hold good sportsmanship seminars for NFL draftees. lol.

I can see it now. Any thread that says Donovan McNabb is lesser than Jesus Christ himself... LOCKED!!!

I think he either needs another mod to help him out or have two different mods instead. Two is always better than one because if one mod is away for some trip for example, the other one should still be available :p.
