I think the whole notion that we ought to keep the leadership we got because so & so could become a mod is a bit weird. The general point is that the the leadership has been the leadership for so long it's ossified.

Call me a pessimist, but this kumbaya, "let's have all the members change and get that tiger to trade in his stripes for some spots, too!" nonsense won't work, and even if it did the difference it would effect would be minimized if we had the same ole' mods.

So let's try changing the mods.

Do you mean all the mods or just some of them? Personally I would be more in favour of piecemeal change than any radical overhaul. I think the mods by and large do a good job and like anybody doing this they're not infallible to mistakes, but sure a drop of new blood would be a vital injection into the moderation team.

You do realize that Urban is really the only mod that has been a mod for any great length of time.

BD, Duga, FD, janz, Pete, Satch, and Vanilla have all only been modding a pretty short time. This forum often replaces mods, as they are always retiring or moving on. I mean 1 year ago today we had a completely different mod team.

I'm sure most of those have been mods for longer than that. I know that Janz, Pete, Satch and Duga have.

I took a break during a particularly hectic semester at the beginning of 2011 and I don't think I was modded again until August or September of that same year. I remember because I originally became a mod after boo boo's meltdown in mid-late August 2009 and it was around that time I became a mod again.
