Poll on moderation

Last moderator elections took place a long time ago. Is it alright with you to keep having the same team of moderators?

There is no reason why you cant nominate and vote for them again.

You left off:

Yes, but there should be regularly scheduled elections anyway incase one or more of the moderators fall out of favor.

Then I would have voted.

Graham mentioned yesterday that he was going to contact the other 5 mods(both forum's) and see if he could build a consensus to then go and ask the Sponsor to hold elections or allow the membership to vote via a poll

oddly..i have seen several mods post here AFTER Graham contacted them and yet i hear no news about this

We were not elected for life. Elections are overdue.

I have suggested the possibility of running them ourselves if the forum owner agrees. See here:

I also posted in the moderators' subforum to get the views of the other mods on this, but so far none have commented.

Regards, Graham.
