Yes. My other concern is knowing who all of the mods are.

@Mj12  And that too.

 

I recognize all the names of the mods except emmabug.  I don't know who she is.

@Carmie 

 

Thank you!

 

Again, thank you for all the hard work you and the other mods have been doing.  It's a huge undertaking to moderate a forum.  You've all done so much in just a few days.  Heart

Moderation is a concern for me at the new board. Posters do not make for good moderators. It's a imbalance of power. Moderators are usually neutral for a reason.


Do you think the mods were always fair and neutral on QVC?  I think not.

 

Humans are not robots.  We all have flaws and when using judgement, not everyone will agree.

 

We can only do our best and be as fair as we can, as best we can.

 

Inbalance of power?  I hardly think this is a power position.  Not from where I sit anyway.  It's a difficult job.  I hope I never have to monitor my friends, nor those who for some reason have rubbed me raw over the years here, but I know that I will.

 

I am not looking forward to that.

Yes, @Carmie it is a power position. While I didn't agree with some of the moderators decisions on this board they have established rules. They don't post here either. I don't think posters should moderate.

@manny2   While I do understand your concerns, not letting mods post on the new board will penalize those of us who volunteered to help.

 

I offered to help because this board is shutting down and mellyg took the initiative to put another board together so we could continue the friendships that have gone on for years. 

 

She obviously could not do it alone so I offered to do what I could.  The rules will clealy state what is and is not acceptable.  If someone disagrees with a mod in a civil way that is no cause for any action.  Civil, respectful and kind are key.

 

Since the board is so new, I am sure it will be tweaked as we move forward but everyone is doing the best that they can for now.

On proboards, you can ban people by their IP address.
