I was thinking about something over the weekend.. Gonzo and I will always have lots of work to do. We have a limited amount of time to dedicate to the board and occasionally we go out of town.

What would you regular posters think of the idea of having moderator access that would allow you to ban, delete, and edit pretty much anything or anyone. You wouldn't have to ask our permission you would only have to see a situation that you don't like. You handle it.

This would not be a paid position.. I hate that shit. You don't have to be here all the time.. In fact we might give this access to 20 or more people. I figure there will always be atleast one of you around to deal with stuff that doesn't lend itself to a pleasant environment.

I'm not just talking about the old timers when I ask you guys about this.. if there are some newbies that are making money in this industry and you have a level head.. I see no reason why you couldn't deal with agressive posters.

Note if you have a history of being an aggressive poster you can immediately exclude yourself. The goal is to have responsible moderators that pay attention to what the community has a whole wants. If a moderator doesn't like what they see and people are complaining to them then your toast.

I figure if a big chunk of you have moderator access this place would be more peaceful and you would all feel more comfortable.

I haven't talked about it but there are some changes coming to Oprano. Some things that will be useful to the entire adult industry not just the webmasters. Once the new features have been launched they will either become powerful tools very quickly with user support or they will become
powerful tools slowly because we end up doing all the work. It doesn't make any difference to me how it plays out because the site will always be here, growing slowly or quickly but always growing.

Ok I need opinions.. post here or contact me on icq - 33840775 and give me your thoughts. We may or may not do this.. I want everyones opinion right now. There would be some simple rules and moderators would be held to a higher standard but nothing major.
