While I am not one to get much interaction with the mods, I do get to see some action by association with a certain group. Take note this idea is fully mine so far, and the people in that group only support it, not participate in its development.
The idea is as such: We have Mod Elections.
Every couple of months, maybe every 4, 5 or 6 months we vote on all the current mods. We vote based on our exposure to them as posters, as moderators, and as well, our rulers. Inadvertedly, some mods would get voted out of the job due to well, being disliked by the general community. If so, TF would draw up a list of possible candidates. Maybe 5 candidates for a single position or somewhere along those lines. He and the current mods who are not at risk of being kicked out would then review this list, maybe to make sure the candidates arent attention whores, or are just vying for the position, but are legitemately good people for the position being offered. From there, the Final list is posted, and people vote on the mod. Say, keep the polls open for a week. THe winning mod then assumes power as such. And repeat the above for any number of mods that got voted out.
Of course, some checks would have to be put into place, which is where TF comes in. He will be the final say in any decision and would be the one to come up with candidates ( to ensure that we don't have election campaigns or such).
The smallest hint of actively vying for a position could disqualify a candidate and so forth.
Yes I know this might be a bit half-arsed, but thats what you people are here for. Suggestions, and criticisms ( other than " CFC isn't a democracy" ) are all very welcome. I would hate to see this degrade into another PDMA topic or a mod-bash so please keep those comments off here. All I want is input into this idea of giving us, the 120 thousand or so of us, some say in those who rule us.
NOTE- I am NOT trying to undermine Mod power, so please, if you mods have any rationale, let us decide this as a community, and not just close this because it might offend you a bit.
