The fifth moderator will be 'nominated' by the existing mods and any sort of lobbying will not be required. Guidelines Those members who would be interested in taking up this role are encouraged to write an email to 'airlinersindia@yahoo.com' giving a brief reason why they feel they suit the role. Members have one week time to send the request and the name of the nominated mod will be announced by the end of next week. regards Moderation Team _________________ [url=http://openflights.org/user/aseemsjohri] [/url] Back to top Birendra Member Joined: 15 Feb 2007 Posts: 1411 Posted: Mon Dec 24, 2007 10:08 pm    Post subject: Quote: The fifth moderator will be 'nominated' by the existing mods and any sort of lobbying will not be required. Where is the Democracy in that, should it not be by the votes of the members herein of the person [A list of people who are wanting to join and voting for them by the members] that must now join the management Or in the interest of a largesse, just give the mantle to a woman and showcase that AINET believes in equality.

In the interest of greater participation from all members, I'd like to encourage additional nominees to apply ASAP as today's the last day (1/Jan/2008).

The original post says 6 months, but nothing's really set in stone right now. However the intent for now is 6 months.

I'd like to thank all the 3 nominees on behalf of the entire moderators team and the forum for coming forward to volunteer for this role. We're now going to start the selection process (within the mods team), and may be in contact with the applicants if we have any questions of them. To the rest of the forum, stay tuned for the new mod!
