Howdy /m/SC.

First off, i’d like to apologize for basically disappearing, lifes been doing its best to be a hassle. I have stepped down from /r/SC as a mod as well, but apparently since I “own” this community I can’t exactly do that here.

SO.

With that being the case, It’s time we get more active mods on the scene here to start making this community more of a functional entity.

I was reached out to and told that this was being discussed by the community already, so hopefully this is a straight forward enough process.

Since this is a new community, and there isn’t a precedent for this yet I figure we let the community itself have a hand in choosing.

To start, we will open the floor to nominations, either yourself or someone you feel deserves the spot in helping lead and continue shaping what this community will become.

If interested in nominating please comment on this post with the following:

  • Username (With link to profile preferred)

  • An explanation for why the person you are nominating should be chosen. If nominating yourself, provide some background on your experience moderating a community or helping lead a group.

We will leave discussion open for at least a week: 7/20/2023 - 7/27 2023 and hopefully have a functional mod team in place by the start of August.

    @TellumSiege has been posting a ton of the content here. They’re basically already doing the live thread stuff so I think they’d be a good choice.

    ETA: They also seem to have a good vibe and are really invested in the success of this place. I think we can trust them to help maintain the positive atmosphere we’ve cultivated here.

    Also - glad things are going a bit easier for you.

      I’d second this, provided they’re interested in the role. They’ve been doing a wonderful job kick-starting activity into the magazine and taking the reigns in getting all the threads started, much better of a job than I could dream of doing.

      “No, you’re breathtaking!”

      Thanks for the praise, gang. I’m very easy when it comes to modship. To be honest, if I were to mod, I’d rather have low-level powers and responsibilities. Just the ability to pin important threads, comments, and delete the odd troll/android enhancement ad is more than enough for me. I’d happily leave the admin stuff to people with experience…or who have a much better idea of what that involves.

      And to the current mods: thanks for coming back and caring enough to do this. We’re a small community compared to the places you’ve modded in the past– but I really feel this place is a “quality over quantity” situation. We have some great people here, and the makings of what could be an awesome wrestling community.

        I don’t think kbin has much in the way of power privileges right now so it’s sorta get what you get, but we can figure things out as we go.

        Like stated, I basically can’t leave so I’m happy to handle the “admin” side of things.

          Whatever works for you. The last thing I want to do is step on anyone’s toes.

          On-line stuff aside, I hope life is starting to settle down. You have my ear if you need it (that offer goes for all of you marks).
