Re: Summer 2011 Scratch Community Moderator Elections: Discussion Thread

Honestly, the idea of TDD for mod is a little meh to me.

She would do the job and all but just doesn't seem mature enough to do it completely right or whatever.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

I'd rather have a slightly immature mod around than one that's terribly mature  tongue

I hope someone in a different timezone wins: I reported this commercial spam an hour ago and it's still there.

Am I allowed to run from my new account?  Just wondering, because that account is not six months old, but I don't use this one anymore.


This account is dead. See my new one here.

Nope, sorry. You can only run on an account you've had for at least 6 months.

Re: Summer 2011 Scratch Community Moderator Elections: Discussion Thread

Hmm... I'm looking at all the moderator speeches, and everyone is saying the obvious stuff, and largely talking about the "moderator" aspect of being a community moderator, but very little about the "community" aspect.

Although the mod election is looking for someone who is active in maintaining the Miscellaneous forums, remember that being a moderator goes beyond cleaning up spam and keeping the peace in the forums - it also involves trying to encourage the community to grow. (Did you guys suddenly forget the thread Chronicles of a Moderator?)

If you don't mind me giving some advice for the speeches: Don't give a list of what moderators already do (like saying you'll remove commercial spam, or remove e-mails, or closing topics, or dealing with trolls, yada yada yada) - such things are already obvious and do not show much insight as to the role that community moderators take on. Instead give some ideas of what you would like to implement into the community.  wink
