TTF is looking for a new Moderator

[Vorlan]

Hey everyone,

I'm please to announce that TTF is looking at recruiting a new moderator in the next few months.

All members are encouraged to nominate users they think would make good moderators. The TTF team will then decide on the best candidate out of those who have been nominated.

Each member can nominate up to 3 members by e-mailing their names and why you believe they would make a good moderator to:

throughtheflame@live.co.uk

OR:

By PMing myself or Admin2

Please place the word "nominations" in the subject line.

Also include your member name. This is to confirm that all those who nominate are members.

When nominating please consider the following:

* Who in your eyes, has selflessly helped many TTF members?
* Who do you consider an asset to TTF?
* Who do you think has proved themself to be a responsible and generous member?
* Who would you be most happy to turn to for questions help and support?
* Who has an understanding nature and is respected within the TTF community?

FAQs

Can I only nominate people that have been members for a long time?
We won't put a restriction on how long people must have been a member to be nominated but please bear in mind that a nominee who has not been on TTF for very long will be unlikely to be selected for the position by the TTF team.

Does it matter if the member has had a relapse?
No it doesnt matter, What matters is what you feel about that member when nominating.

What if the member I want to nominate is no longer active?
Please only nominate members who have been active in the last month or two.

What if the member I want to nominate has been banned?
You will not be able to nominate banned members.

Can I change my mind later if ive already sent my nominations?
Unfortunatley no. Please think carefully about your nominations before clicking send.

Will I receive an acknowledgement following my nomination e-mail?
Not neccessarily. We will endevour to send confirmations if possible but this may not be feasible due to the numbers of members.

If I have a question that isnt listed here what should I do?
Please PM myself, Admin2 or Rowlf.

How long do we have to nominate people?
The Deadline for entries is midnight 30th November 2009 (GMT)

Should we check if people want to be a Moderator before nominating them?
No, don't worry about that. The TTF team will deal with asking whether people are interested when all nominations are in. Feel free to nominate anyone.

Thanks,

The TTF Team

We haven't had many responses yet. It's OK if members need some time to think about this but please do contribute your suggestions. We'd like to appoint a moderator who is respected by the community as a whole. :)

Best wishes,

The TTF Team

We still havn't had many responses. We've given another way to nominate (via PM) for those who would prefer not to e-mail.

Nominations must close however at midnight (GMT) on 30th November 2009.

Make sure you have your input as to who moderates you and who can help us to improve the site for everyone here!

Best wishes,

The TTF Team

Is there a way we can verify if our nominations were received? I know it is not always possible to receive email responses.

I'll post a list here of who we've recieved nominations from. I'll try to keep it as up to date as possible.

People who have already nominated people:

• Athenon
• Crisodian
• Pandora's Hope
• Starpuppy

Pleas give us your opinions so we can employ the right mod! :)

Best wishes,

Nominations for the new moderator have now closed. Thank you to the four members who expressed their opinions.

The TTF team will use the results to select a new moderator who will likely be announced around Christmas.

Best wishes,

The TTF Team

P.S. Any members who wish to have their say but forgot to nominate members should feel free to PM their opinions to myself or Admin2 but we cannot guarantee that we will take into account these late nominations.
