How were moderators chosen? 


@mom2four0418   I can only speak for myself.  I saw there was a need for assistance and sent a message to Mellyg that I would be happy to do what I could and she accepted.

 

I sent one as well, but never got a response. Thanks!


@mom2four0418   I am sorry about that.  The first day of the board was overwhelming.  I would think that more mods would be needed going forward with so many on the site.  As mentioned before, with the holidays coming and things everyone needs to do help would be appreciated.

 

I know I am dealing with an 11 month old Lab right now and he takes up a lot of my time....sometimes that is good and sometimes not so much!

@Mersha, are the mods on a schedule so one of you is always on duty?  Sounds overwhelming 😬

@SharkE  @persiflage  - are you all coming?  I'm just thinking of a few names I haven't seen over there.

 

Everyone please join proboards!  Smiley Happy


already blocked 3 not putting up with that 'stuff' no more.


WHAT???


@BalletBabe , if someone's posts annoy or upset, you have the ability to block them on melly's site. Hope that

helps.🌸


@Trinity11   Oh Thanks!  I thought they were saying that 3 were blocked (Thinking Mods blocked them)   OK that makes sense.  LOL

@BoopOMatic @mom2four0418 ,

 

They are chosen by the owner/Admin of the forum. She has to put in place the various powers/ and roles before anyone can become a mod whether they have volunteered or not.


 Of course, but they volunteered first. She asked interested parties to PM her. That's what I meant.

@tansy 

 

No, no schedule.  I don't think anyone volunteering could commit a certain block of time at present.  I know I could not.

 

If an issue arises, a mod will get to it as soon as possible.  That is the best that we can offer now.

@San Antonio Gal I was going to register until I saw that my name, email, and birthdate were required. Why is all that needed?

@Eager2Learn, just a nic, email (can be a throw-away) and I did read that some put any birthday they felt like in the question. I think the birthday is asked because proboards celebrate birthdays. I was on one once where they did. Come join us. It seems very nice over there.Woman Happy

@Pearlee You can come and browse without registering, but only for a little while longer.

 

The boards will be locked.  Visiting guests will not be able to read the posts or see the posters nick names.

 

This is being done for security and privacy.

 

Currently there 644 people registered.


@Carmie  Why not give a specific date rather than "a little while longer?"  I am still undecided. I would hope you would let people browse there until this board closes.  

 

 


@PearleeI just took a quick look at the "Royals" over there. Go take a look, and see if you see what I see. It is very slanted, in fact read the last person that posted she doesn't mind someone disagreeing with her just as long as they don't speculate???? Isn't that what we all do on here???

 

There are also posts hoping the hateful people don't come over from the QVC board. What they mean is someone that has a different opinion.

@manny2  OY! Thanks for the alert, I'll look.  I'm really not sure about joining a board where any moderator will read racism into my posts  because I've criticized Meghan's (and Harrry's) behavior.

I assume that the forum is intended to be Pro-Royal Family only.

 

That's the impression I get from the posts.

 

Contrary views should be taken elsewhere.
