Forum Sweeper

[ryancpexpert]

So I had an Idea about some amount of people that look over the forums and delete spam/copy messages/topics. This would remove spam, and Admins/Mods could worry about more important stuff.

How often do you see spam? I don't see it really at all nor does it seem to be clogging the forums.

And I would thank AK49BWL for that one

Better idea, a select group of people to moderate the forums, with the ability to redesign and orginize some of the categories, and update things like rules, gym leaders, server addresses, etc.  Things that do sometimes get ignored, or lost in all the confusion, and hard to find.  The ability to delete and regulate spam would be nice, but look at it from a more broader aspect.

We have that already. They're called Moderators.

The Sever Moderators. I'm talking about a separate group of moderators that can control only the forums.  The Pokemon Server is big, and still growing.  It's obvious that it has been difficult thus far to control and organize the Forums.  Having a group of people that will specialize in organizing and supervising over the forums would help it greatly.   Plenty other servers have separate sever moderators, and forum moderator's.  I was once a forum moderator and not a server moderator.  All this idea could do is benefit, unless someone was poorly admitted to being a forum mod, and s/he just messed things up.

The mods are expected to moderate both forums and server. Almost nothing gets out of control on forums, whereas on the server theres a much bigger problem.

[ryancpexpert]

Yea, Forums with forum moderators are most likely due t the forums often get out of control.

The forums never get out of hand is what tene is saying. If we see need specific forum moderators, I promise we'll make it known. I appreciate the concern for the community.
