Guest Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 The key step to getting your suggestion included as part of the forum, is to get mod backing on your topic, that helps heaps. But generally if no mod backs it then you'd most likely have a suggestion not worth implementing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Devoted12- Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 As a moderator, do you get a bigger say in suggestions? Whilst I personally would disagree with giving moderators a bigger say in suggestions as I believe in equality for all, I would just like to know. It's something I like to incorporate on all my ThinkTanks forums. Everyone on our forums gets a fair say on suggestions. Before I was a mod, I created many suggestions which were backed by mods/admins and they were later used. I know I, along with many other mods browse this forum frequently. Even if you are not a mod/admin, your suggestion can definetely be implemented. Just make your suggestion as detailed and indepth as possible in order to recieve the best results possible.

Ard_Choille Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 We appreciate your interest in the process and for you all taking the time to send in your application. Close to 300 applications have been submitted and are in the midst of the review process. During at least the next two weeks, the only notices going out to applicants will be decline notices. So, "no news is good news" if you don't hear from us right away. We'll do our best to keep you posted as we continue this process. Thanks! - Ard PS. Please do NOT send messages to inquire about your application. Nagging or asking staff members to put in a good word for you will be grounds for immediate rejection of your application. - - My deviantART Page - - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umega Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Is it too late to send my application in? Kill Life just mentioned this to me, because I didn't know anything about this. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InkofDeath Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Not to be pesimistic, but there are always the odd forum users who take offense to being declined, and revert to being a negative influence to others. And those particular users should always be declined. If they complain, or whine, or do what ever just because they got declined, probably means they aren't ready to be what a Mod stands for, and who a Mod reflects, even the responsibilities of a Mod. All i know is to keep my head down and continue to try keeping this forum as positive as it has been. I don't think you can influence positivity with your head down...so lift it up. : Even if you, or I are declined it shouldn't change your posting attitude. You've probably gained some good lesson from being declined, that you could use in real life, and the internet Actually, I think I look forward to being declined, just to know what I do wrongly.

I started posting on this forum, not even knowing what a Mod. I continued posting here as i felt i was having a positive influence on people.
