Archive Mod Position Request + Welcome Mod Nomination

[Fox_McCloud]

I was thinking that we could add a new board titled Archives. It would contain all old information on the site as well as locked topics, dead topics, old posts, records, etc. I have had expiriance in this field because I am good at organizing things into folders (I help my mom do this stuff and my dad at the office on weekends). I can also keep it updated and would like to be its mod.

Also, I would like to nominate Dr.Wilopolis as a Mod. who would welcome new members to the site. He would also help them if any questions arose as to how to post or where to post.

[Mr. Krystal]

Got my vote.

Eh, sure, why not?  I don't know if this board has a purge or not, but if it does, I can think of a few topics to save.  Especially in the RPG section.  Aye.

[Dr. Wilopolis]

Whoo. Archives're always fun. 

But me as a mod? Well... no commet on that one...  :oops:

We already have an archive of sorts for the forum, though it is hidden. It's a board called the "Evidence Room/Storage locker." Deleted posts are automatically chunked in there. Also, some old threads from SFO.com were there, but I think they've since been pruned.

This serves two purposes: It allows me to see what posts have been deleted, and allows me to hold posts that may be of use later (IE spotting how a particular flame war started without having the post in public view to possibly create new policies).

I see no other reasons for a post archive, particularly not a public one.

As far as one for site content, that ball is in Dwight's court.

Other than the RP mod (one will be chosen soon) I think our moderator staff is fine at it's current size.

Though a greeter, without mod powers, isn't such a bad idea.
