GSS For Forum Moderator Thread

[highpeaksdrifter]

Greg, do I have any political capital built up here from my years of faithful participation? Because if I do I’d like to spend it right now in trying to get GSS appointed to the position of forum moderator.

Nobody cares more about this board then he does, he’s always on and he certainly brings a unique perspective.

I’d like to use this thread to let GSS make his case for being a mod and to find out if others think it would be a good idea.

Greg, I’m fully aware AZ is your baby, I’m just asking you to be open minded to the idea after this thread runs for awhile and see if other loyal forum members would like to give GSS a chance at being a mod. He wouldn’t take anyone’s place, he’d be a new addition.

Bumpity, Bumpity

And not a bad idea IMHO

How about following the Major League Baseball model and starting in the minors? Start at SkiADK?

Make him a MIT (Mod In Training)

 

[gmcunni]

how about an intern program? He can sweep the floors and fetch coffee for the real moderators. :razz:

i'm not a frat boy, but forget the internship and make him a pledge. at least that way we can torture/haze him a bit. ;-)

Dude, I think a good move for you in this campaign would be to make an infomercial, kinda the way Obama did. Then put it on YouTube and post it here. Make a video that shows you in all your stezziness. You at home, work, Blue, out in a bar, etc. Then have some people who know you give testimonials as to way you’d be a great mod. Try getting Sexkitten on, her endorsement might put you over the top.

It would be great to be a moderator but I don't think Greg and the other mods want me to join their posse. I sort of like being just another poster on here..a customer..I click on the links alot to get extra ad revenue for the site..but yeah on a rainy November day..chilling and posting on AlpineZone is a good time..and PASR is so freaking slow..I think AndyZee should be a moderator.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

-I still want to be a mod.

I would also help out with marketing and sticker distribution..I could also help setup a stats database..to keep track of days skied, vert, runs, notes..whatever..I could get some representatives from Pennsylvania ski mountains to join. This is a Northeast forum..not just New England..in return all I want is a moderator position and more attachment space would be nice as well for Mad Steezy pictures..

I'm down with the idea

The mods in here do an excellent job, period. I don't know this for sure but I don't think any are from PA or are of GSS's age. It's good to shake things up and ad new perspective. That's all I gotta say

The video already exists and shows everything you need to know (and more):

I agree 100%

That video just shows his fun side. We need one that shows he has a serious side. You can say what you want, but he is 100% dedicated to this forum. Plus he really wants it and would consider it an honor to do it. That’s the attitude you want brought to any position. You know that type of guy is going to do a good job for you.

The kid's got passion---That's one of the biggest things I look for when I hire peeps because passion leads to 110% effort given.

 

[Philpug]

Great guy, but I see nothing "moderate" in his posting habits.

Have him moderate the Non Northeast Trip Reports.

Or GSS better sign up for both the Sundown bump contests and if he gets a podium in both, he becomes a moderator.

Nah, we need a non-Sundown bumper as a moderator;-)

 

[MRGisevil]

Let him moderate the miscellaneous section. There really is no screwing that up.

Dude, what’s to screw up? We’re not talking about entrusting him with the code sequence to launch a nuclear strike. If he didn’t do a good job Greg could click off the mod button just as easily as he clicked it on.
