Title: Looking for a global mod!
Post by: Guybrush on Mar 06, 2025, 11:25 PM
Hey gang!

As you all know, SCD is moderated by myself and @Trollheart. We can largely handle things, but there are times when we're slow to react and feel a little understaffed.

After a very short discussion, we've agreed that it would be nice to have an additional moderator; someone with a name in blue who can fight unsanctioned nastiness and blast the occasional spambot.

We promise it's not a lot of work and you can also quit if you like. Some things we might value:


We hope one or more of you will be interested! You can apply with a post here or a PM if you prefer a more anonymous approach.

If we have more than one candidate, we might put it to the vote. In that case, us admins will recuse ourselves from voting unless it is to settle a tie.

So what do you think, Guest? Would you be our new mod?

I check absolutely none of those boxes, but would like a fancy title and status anyway.

If @Queen Boo was still a frequent flyer here, I'd nominate her for a classic redemption arc.

Congratulations (or commisserations!) @Auroras In Ice ! You passed the flimsy excuse for an interview, and as you satisfy our main criterion, i.e., have a pulse, you become the new mod!

Thanks to @Auroras In Ice 🙂

Your new badge and all the access that comes with it should be up and in effect now.

Congrats @Auroras In Ice! I won't lie, I had to google it to make sure your username wasn't a Captain Beefheart song...just to be sure, you know?

Sorry, all appointments are final. The only way you get out now is in a box.

Of chocolates.
No nuts please.

Why has Aurora got a blue name? I want a different coloured name.

Can I have a purple name? I want one.

I don't even see where her name is in blue. From what I can see, everyone's name - including yours - is in blue.

It will be blue at the very bottom of the index where the site names members active in the last 15 minutes.. I think? So that's it. But the badge is kinda fun!

They all look exactly the same to me (in dark or light mode; I've tried both), although for some reason Lexi's is italicised?

I sent you a message about QuantumSync, did you get that?
