The Chat Club’s activity level is at an all time high, and yet the club has no administration. This means that internal club issues need to be dealt with directly by the moderators, whereas normally the club admins handle most of the moderation.

For this reason, we would like the club members to elect admins. This is an opportunity for the chat club to work together with the staff, so everyone can enjoy the activity of the club without moderators needing to be involved.

A club admin’s duty would consist of restricting content which violates the Site & Forum Guidelines, so that we don’t need to step into the club and do this ourselves. This means:
- Deleting NSFM images posted and/or uploaded by club users.
- Ensuring flaming and abuse is not directed towards non-club members (who have not agreed to the rough nature of the club). Should such comments be made, the admin(s) should immediately remove the posts and redirect the conversation to other subjects.
- Preventing excessive abuse/harassment towards club members. If the member is not wanted in the club that badly, then they should be removed.

Some level of baiting/joshing is part of the club’s atmosphere and is expected based on the club’s information. However, these statements should not be directed towards non-club members.

Keep in mind that the club admins will be working independently. Forum moderators will not be contacting them for every issue that comes up, unless members are reporting the ineffectiveness of the admin(s).

You may nominate someone else for the admin position. We are looking for strong candidates who understand the concerns we are facing and are willing to deal with the aforementioned cases that occur within the club.

Thank you for considering this matter. Please do not use this topic to post jokes about each other or to choose people randomly.

[i]Please do not nominate yourself. Put some thought to the idea of who you would like to lead you, someone who will preserve the integrity of your club.

Let me just say that even though I'm a moderator, I'd like to nominate myself to be one of the club admins. Instead of having the club admins have to contact us, they can just contact me, who already knows all about the problems that happen around here.

Feel free to reply what you think.

I'll do it.

I have prior moderation experience on other forums and I tend to spend all my time in this club anyway, so you'd be getting a lot of bang for your buck.

EDIT: I'd also nominate editor.

Knowing how club issues work, the shit will be flung to us first before being flung to the club admins.

Not if the club admin in question is online when a mod isn't, which is quite often the case when I tend to be active.

One of the reasons I nominated myself was because of my activity level. No point in having a club admin in namesake alone, after all.

That's not a good idea. Many people from multiple different timezones post in this club, and the mods don't need even more on their shoulders.

We'd need more than one club admin.

The report still sits in the queue, and when we do come online, we still have to fling the shit back.

I believe that given enough time, the presence of the club admins would become well known enough that people wouldn't be so quick on the trigger-finger for reports, so that wouldn't be too big of an issue.

It's more of a want than a need, yes, but there's nothing wrong with putting some moderator's heads at easy and decreasing their work load.

This club is only going to grow more and more overtime, which means more problems, so it's not a bad idea at all.

The problem isn't members reporting on each other (which sometimes happens anyway), it's outside non-members reporting people.

I don't even think one is necessary, tbh. This place has gone without for what? Almost a year now? One would be fine. All you're doing by having two admins is escalating the circle jerk and pretentiousness that frankly, this club hasn't seen very much of up until recently. I'm not saying anything bad about you, korrvo but I know for a fact that if you and one of your notorious dick riders became admin this club would go down the poop shoot. Quick. Mods have to stay neutral. That's why they would make for good admins. Plus they basically are already modding it anyway.

I wouldn't know since I haven't had the chance to use it.
In most other clubs people usually don't bash others as much.
I do think it prevents them from joining though, posting, etc. I don't think they can even view the club at all.

I think those guys might be even less-inclined to be report-happy than members are. The ones who actually post tend to get more butthurt upset than those who simply lurk and post every now and then.

And like Hedy said early, it could be made that only members post, so we'd have even less of that.

@bold wat

I think you're forgetting who's the king of the food chain here in the first place, that being the moderators themselves. It's the moderators that are asking for admin volunteers, it's the moderators that will decide who is good for the position, and it's the moderators that can take it away should the positions be abused.

I think your vision of an apocalyptic scenario for CC is a bit overly dramatic for the wrong reasons.

Well, just in case I'm wrong I'll vote him.

I'm also happy with Josh (doubt he'd want it) and -muuse-.

Don't take it too personally. That goes for everyone. It's a chain effect. Make someone admin, they make another friend admin. Then people get banned from the club because abloo abloo. It's just bound to happen when young people are put in charge of shit. Even if it is a club on a shitty anime forum.

I honestly don't even give two fucks, so if my take isn't needed then so be it.
