Due to the increased activity of the forum, the site moderators are looking to add two additional moderators to the team in order to keep it running smoothly. The role of the mods will be to ensure that site rules are enforced, which would include removing posts that fall under commercial spam or harassment. Being a moderator is entirely voluntary, so we are seeking trustworthy users with good intentions. Replies to this topic will be for the purpose of nominating additional moderators you think would be a good fit.
Nominations
You can nominate 2 users to be moderators (including yourself) and can include your reasoning in your post if you would like.
Example: I nominate X and Y to be added to the mod team (Optional: Because...)
The users with the most nominations will be contacted later to confirm their candidacy. If they decline, then they will not be included in the final round of voting between nominated candidates.
Nominations will be open for 5 days after today's date.
Note: We are only counting nominations from users who have a post count above 30.
Current Moderators: KiloKAHN, Medium Drink of Water, TRS
Active Moderators: KiloKAHN, TRS
New Moderators: To Be Determined
30 posts? Imho a bit low lol.
I will nominate Penguinn.
Neutral, active and with his own LL experience. Probably everything you need.
I would like to nominate -
Unicorn - because she has been active and had experienced fair share of complications. So I think she has lot to offer.
Sweden - because he's brutally honest and responds to most of the diaries, especially when someone is doing something foolish.
Iamready - He's the only one, I know of, who did quadrilateral lengthening. So I think he brings a lot of experience to the table.
I would say:
- Penguinn for sure: active, with LL experience, and seems to be a mature guy (despite being young). He lives in India, so he can be active during some hours in which other moderators (i guess based in the US/Europe) would probably be inactive.
- I'm not sure about the other one. Probably between KrP1 and Alu, but I might be forgetting someone.

Penguin sounds like a good idea but shouldn't we first make a list with the available users for the job?
Sweden
Maybe Penguinn after hus experience is complete.
Penguinn, too. Active user and experienced.
I'd nominate Tibike since he's pretty active and I think he would do a good job. I also want to nominate LLcaptain, to keep LLuser away
Penguin - very active - will keep a vigilant watch on the forum
Sweden - experience - active - knowledge
Stripes - experience - knowledge - not sure if he'd want to do this though.
Guys it's not about the experience of LL that should give someone Moderator status. That doesn't equal judgment or decision making when it comes to how the forums should operate. So people like DIFM and Iamready, I doubt would be interested in this since I'm sure their time on the forum is largely based on simply telling their story until they feel capable enough to return to normal life and then move on. But I'll let them answer that.
(Like wise, my own game plan/endgame has been to hear these guys' stories and then move on.)
So far from my mind, yes Penguin is probably the best candidate for it.
