Utter rubbish.EMF said:The problem is not so much moderation or the amount needed...it's the lack of rules and how to deal with folks that disrupt the forums, so that they cannot complain that they were not treated fairly. The mods were doing about all they could with the present system. But they needed help since the forum got bigger and they thought that a rule set would make modding easier. This is what is being discussed by the admins and mods right now according to their many postings on this issue.
This poll is actually a moot point as the folks volunteering have already decided that something needs to be done, so things don't get worse. The tail, apparently and thankfully, does not wag the dog around here. It is obvious from reading the postings from the staff, that they want the bickering/badgering stopped. I guess it should be up to them since they are doing all the work.

If they make it a rule he will and also people will know this is against the rules and will try to abide by them. Unsubstatiated slander or childish empty accusations type posts will probably be frowned upon as well.

The absolute number isn't the criteria, it's the lack of a track record of how he responds under various situations that's missing that serves as an audition or resumé of his suitability.
I hope the first thing he cracks down on is those indviduals that are unable to express themselves without extensive cursing.
