Debug errors have been fixed. Search function still disabled to expedite the behind-the scenes part of the fix. - Ard

I wish it was that easy, but it's not. - Ard

Phew. Quest Cape back on. \

This is currently being fixed. Thanks for your patience. - Ard

Newest are at the beginning. - Ard

Thanks! - Ard

Better late than never. We are saying the same thing. We plan to align the trainees with the forum they post to most. - Ard

We recognize that some of the specialty forums need moderators who are most familiar with the content and frequent posters. We've customized groups for forums like Off Topic and The Gallery for that very reason. The Trainee positions will expand that concept by assigning moderators to categories/forums like Rants, Clans and Player Killing (along with related subforums) if potential users have applied. By asking for volunteers to moderate very specific forums they most use, we can fill in some of these gaps. One of the overall goals of the Moderator Applications is to get new moderators who WANT to moderate the forums they use the most and will be active. By asking for volunteers, we're taking the guesswork out of "do you want to and have the time to moderate" question that sometimes isn't answered until after a user is already doing the job. It's an addition to the "hiring process" (if you will) that we are hoping proves to be beneficial. We're not replacing the "being asked" method, we're simply adding a new method to the mix in order to fill in the gaps. - Ard

Hang in there gang. We're carefully considering how to best place the applicants based on a variety of criteria. Please keep in mind that we started with almost 300 applications. That's a lot to consider. Thanks for your patience. - Ard

I'm glad I stumbled on to IRC when I did and was able to track you down. Congratulations again!!! - Ard

My turn to drop in my two-cents worth. Regarding Time-Zone Coverage I agree that we need to balance out the coverage of moderators for the variety of time zones. We are taking this into consideration with the moderator applications and are always on the lookout for potential active users who are in some of the least-covered zones. Regarding Perceived Staff Activity I will say from personal experience that after performing daily moderator duties I often don't have time to post casually. I will say that if a moderator is active with moderator duties, it probably takes away from their casual posting frequency. Regarding Crew Having Moderator Permissions Crew members are committed to the website. They have enough work to do and we need them focused on the website. The last thing we want to do is give them more work. As For Monitoring Moderator Activity It is a constant effort but please realize that we must respect that everyone has a life outside of these forums. Our staff members are doing their duties here voluntarily. I can appreciate the initial intention of this thread but bickering about what constitutes an "active moderator" really isn't constructive. - Ard

Last non-combat before hitting 1800. Melees will take me to 1800 and a combat level now. Standard Deviation: 5.20

One step closer to 1800. Only one more non-combat level to get, then it's all melee to my goal. Standard Deviation: 5.25

More new ones. - Ard

Thread subject updated along with a comment added to the initial post. - Ard

He's an Op trainee now that he's a full crewbie. We're still reviewing applications and nobody has been offered the position as of yet. - Ard

Whaaaat!!! You got a level???? Dang Congrats! - Ard

Heh. It just so happened that he was able to join us for Tallest's 99 Fishing level yesterday. ... just like old times. \
