New Forum Moderators

[Sedgistan]

We're pleased to welcome two new additions to the moderator team: Kyrusia and Wrapper.

Kyrusia has served as a Roleplay Mentor since 2014, and has been specifically chosen to maximise the confusion between existing mod "Kryo" and "Kyru".

Wrapper was successfully extricated from the General Assembly for long enough to promote him, before dropping him back, armed solely with a shiny badge, with the instructions to "sort out" the festering snakepit. We wish him luck.

[Libetarian Republics]

Congratulations all

[The NeoSindar]

Kongratulations to Cyrusia!

Oh and Congratulations to Wrapper, too

[Lychgate]

Well done and congrats.

[Phydios]

Congrats to Kyrusia and Wrapper!

Congrats.

[Leppikania]

I bow to my new masters.

What qualifies a person with one GA resolution to moderate the GA forum?

What qualifies a person with one GA resolution to moderate the GA forum?

Ardchoille did much of the moderating in the GA for years, and as far as I'm aware, never authored a GA resolution. I don't think Hack did either. A person's suitability to becoming a WA-focused mod isn't based on the number of proposals they've passed, the same way we wouldn't judge a roleplay-focused moderator on the number of RPs they've participated in, and so on.

Is Ard retiring?

What is it based on then? Wrapper has been on these forums for all of two years.

[Sedgistan]

Ardchoille isn't retiring. She's had various RL matters that have kept her away from NS for several months.

Two years is actually a long time to spend on an online game, even if the site has been around for over a decade. It's enough to judge someone's suitability as well as it's possible to do. Suitability to be a moderator is based on a whole load of factors, including activity, personality, knowledge of the rules, humour and many other things.

Oh, good, fresh pastries.

Congrats, you two. Now get busy.

Ardchoille isn't retiring.

How about Mall? He hasn't posted in the GA since February 20th. His pick was nearly as random, especially given that he's primarily a gameplayer.

He's currently busy with academic studies. He is around but not as much as he was previously.

Getting a new moderator is like getting a new Pope.

[Great Feng]

New mods!
Only thing better would be if Ozzy was a moderator, or Stormwrath.

[Benjamin Mark]

Congratulations Kyrusia and Wrapper. My condolences if this is a sad event.

Ermergerd good job Wrapper! And Kyrusia (I've never met you before ).

Random, no transparency and no democratic process.

but that's what to expect from an oligarchy.

Congratz to all who have been selected to serve as tribute for the glorious Max Berry!

May he spare your souls for as long as possible.

*winces seeing what Wrapper is being dropped into*

"Snakes... Why is it always snakes?"

Gosh... That's a uh... Pretty harsh beat to walk for the new cop. Congrats?

[Katganistan]

Welcome Wrapper and Kyrusia!

Mine was the cherry cheese danish and the venti chai latte soy.

Not at all random, and no, not democratic, and no, not transparent.

Tell you what: you pick the mods on your site whatever way you want to. Names out of a hat. Your buddy who you've known since last week. Train a chicken to peck a list of people at random.

[Common Territories]

Oh god. Kyr is a Mod now? Jesus save us all....

Seriously though. Congrats Kyrusia and the other fellow who I do not know.

At least they're honest about it.
