Idea for handling green pea threads..........."rookie mods"
How about this...all new mods go through a probation period before they become full mods.....all they handle is the rookie posts(you know the ones)....then they make full mod after a certain time period or post count. Sounds like a pain in the arse, but maybe it can be a right of passage?
I think this could work...

Wouldn't you think that post might piss off the new mods a tinny bit.
Now me I love the mods, all mods.
Yay mods!

What a clown...We don't just make people mods out of the blue...Why would they need a probation period?

If it benefits the board then I'm sure they would be all for it. Unfortunately I don't see how putting a mod through an initation phase would serve any benefit. If it ain't broke why fix it, right?

I dont get this post either, give me a specific instance where you think a mod should not be a mod.

I guess since I am the "Newbie" Mod, I will take a sacrafice for the team and consider myself on probation until I reach the 100 post count..Since I get about 500 PM's and Instant Messages everyday, I think that is going to take about 10 minutes!! But anything in the name of peace!!

I'd say if they have been made a mod then they have paid their dues. And I am sure they discuss a lot of the major decisions that will be made before action is taken. So I am sure they know where the other mods stand on issues. Point is, they know who to pick based on what that individual will mean to the board, how they can contribute, their knowledge, and experience etc. I've been on AR for awhile and we've always had the best mods. hah how is that for a$$kissing!! lol
Peace,

a heads up.....
everyone thats been considered or ultimately bumped to mod status(or even vet status) has been screened as carefully as possible.
we look at background, contributions to the board and/or members, and attitude, amongst other things.
as far as i'm concerned, this is the probation period, this time we're in discussion amongst ourselves as to what to do. i dont think bumping someone, and then basically telling him or her that they have to fulfill "X" amount of requirements before they get "full status" is necessarily fair, to us or the person in question.
they've already done that, or we wouldnt be considering them in the 1st place........

bro is there something wrong with the people we pick as mods? i mean look around(apart from ifl, cant beleive we made that old guy a mod) all the mods are spot on, hand picked, sure we have made mistakes however i feel the team we have now is excellent. Do you think we been here for this long, and got 20k members cos we dont know how to run things? I wonder maybe you just did one of those 5 day management courses and decided to teach everyone how to run things? but anyway if you got something to say, maybe you can send me or one of us a pm, however im quite happy with all our mods now and the way we do things, as people have said why try to reinvent the wheel?
peace

I don't think the original post was made to say there was a problem with any mod.. I think he made it with 100% of its intentions to solve the 148 newbie questions asked everyday that coudl be answered by reading educational threads..
I repeat i do not think the original post was to say ANYTHING about ANY mod not being qualified or able to do the job..

Hey, how about someone make a thread that will erk and really piss of the MODS. Oh wait, this is the thread. Never mind.

Good idea re new mods
[QUOTE=Doc M] I guess since I am the "Newbie" Mod, I will take a sacrafice for the team and consider myself on probation until I reach the 100 post count..Since I get about 500 PM's and Instant Messages everyday, I think that is going to take about 10 minutes!! But anything in the name of peace!!
Since when can't a doctor spell "sacrifice"? Judging by Doc M's flip and erroneous statements concerning testicular and prostate cancer in another thread, I question whether he is qualified to be a medical Mod. Has anyone actually seen his medical license? It seems odd that a physician would not know some basic facts regarding cancer and now would misspell "sacrifice".

Whats you deal with the word erroneous? Is that the only "big" word that you know? You used it in both posts. I can understand once, but twice? Is this a word that you have just been waiting to use or something?
