Moderator
Definition
At a forum, someone entrusted by the administrator to help discussions stay productive and within the guidelines.
Information
Good moderators are essential for good forums; great moderators are essential for great
forums... and the absence of moderators typically leads to ghost towns inhabited
only by spam bots.
Basic moderator duties include deleting or modifying inappropriate
posts, educating newcomers about forum guidelines, and possibly deleting
accounts of repeat offenders. Additionally, moderators may be experts
in their field who can help minimize unanswered questions.
Most moderator openings are volunteer positions, although there may be substantial
indirect rewards. These highly visible positions can lead to enhanced
status within a community. This can even translate into business
leads, as potential clients have an opportunity to get familiar with
the moderator.
