Quote:how the admins/moderators handle this forum...

If you add a ? a the end of this part of your post, you got exactly what we'd like to know/change. democracy hideout? It's not what we're trying to preach here. This is a very common situation that any board that grows to have several hundred members will ultimately have to face, no matter what the board is about. With growth must come somekind of structure (I don't necessarily mean discipline, law and order here) I mean structure. Have you read my 2 previous posts? I thought I was being quite clear then. As I am trying to be here.

If someone comes on a forum like this one and tries to throw chaos around, he will most likely succeed if he knows he's got plenty of time to do his thing. How many bank robbers would rob all their lives if they knew no cops would show up for a week? This is just an example. But I don't want to compare this board with somekind of criminal justice here. But the fact that this board has so many members should be enough (by common sense alone) to say that "we need more mods/admins" it's the only thing you need with a growing number of members, the only thing that will make the board successful. Logically at some point, the admins/mods must have been doing a good job or there wouldn't be 1600 some members here. To keep doing a good job, you have to add enough people to be able to handle the mass....just like a job...a man/woman can only do so much, if the company needs more done, then need to hire more help or they'll never get things done.

I'm not saying the current list of admins/mods are doing a bad job either, I'm just saying that they can't supply the demand. Getting VonGodric aboard as a mod is a good idea, but just one more mod like that isn't enough..they need more mods doing more things in different places on the forum to help keep QBasicNews as good as it historically has been. it's not democracy, it's not political, it's not authority or power, it's just simple common sense. A mod can only do so much. After that you need more mods. Makes sense no? :-).

A mod and an admin for that matter should also try to get people to post more. Get people involved in the community that the board is supposed to represent :-). Loooking at the ratio of Members to Members who post, I'm thinking there might be a bit more that can be done on that side of things too. :-)
hen they say it can't be done, THAT's when they call me ;-).
