This is just a simple question. I'm sure I'll get hatemail from it, but nonetheless:

My question goes back to a thread posted in July entitled: New criteria to become a moderator

No hate mail. At least not from me.

Any chance MCA is a new user id for am old member? That's the first thought that cam to my mind.

No, MCA was a MOD for over 5 years on another site. Her knowledge and information is incredibly valuable for this site, so when she decided to come over here, Admin made the decision to make her a MOD in the banking forum, since she is the one with all the information. It was a special situation. It was done mainly because she has lists that she constantly is updating, and to be able to edit those posts you have to be a MOD. It was either let her MOD the forum made especially because she came over here, or have someone else constantly doing things for her. It just makes sense to make her a MOD. You will see that she is only a MOD in the banking forum, not any of the other forums.

I'd also like to point out that nothing else in the MOD thread is actually being praticed. There are MODS that haven't posted in forever, and they are not losing their MOD status as it said they would.

Also, the idea to have the banking forum was because MCA was thinking of moving over here. If MCA hadn't come over, there wouldn't be a banking forum.

My thoughts are with debtcruncher. I was under the assumption that you started the thread about the banking forum goudah.

I do not remember readiing anything about having someone else being the mod for it. I assumed that it was going to be you. Am I confused or what?

I did start the thread. Because I was trying to get MCA to come over here. If you read through the thread it talks about it her in it.

And I didn't say in the thread someone else would MOD it. That was up to Admin. I didn't even suggest it. They looked at what she has done in the past and the huge following she has, plus what she would need to be able to do her work, and decided to make her a MOD of the banking forum.

There is no need to get upset or defensive about it, I just did not remember reading it that way Confused

.

I think that she does have valuable information to provide I am not saying that at all. I did read through your thread that is why I made the comment that I did. I guess I was just looking for clarification on it is all.

Jeff I can't seem to give my away so I guess yall are still stuck with me. Laughing

Jeff - I think I got two threads confused. I was referring to the thread "Mission Statement for all Moderators, present and future." What I was talking about wasn't posted in the same thread DC was talking about.

Nice attempt to post and flame a member, anonymous. If you can't say something nice, you don't get to say anything at all.

And "ahhhhhhhhh" goudah. I thought I was blind.

The management usually allows me to take most of the decisions within the community. I was not in the town last week. Since Denny and Jason were handling the board for the most of the time in my absense, they considered some of the community members decision and reviewed MCA's post.
