Web Team - Celia Sutton 0 Posted February 12, 2006 This is currently a moderated forum - which means you have to wait until someone is moderating the messages before your post gets put through.Celia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom NCFC 0 Posted February 12, 2006 That would a good idea. Have a look at the Red Hot Chili Peppers message board. The messages are put on instantly and moderators look through the post afterwards. Would be better for the forum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oso Butch 0 Posted February 12, 2006 Can you please let us know the moderators hours of work actually are each day? I assume you''ve all been to off to a long Sunday lunch today?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Web Team - Celia Sutton 0 Posted February 12, 2006 It varies - at the weekend we have one person on duty on Saturday and Sunday to do moderation and all the other web updating work - yesterday I worked 10 - 6 in work, then moderated a couple of batches of messages during the evening at home (after the Rugby League on Sky and then before I went to bed). Today I''ve been dipping in and out - you get the worst service from me, to be honest - the others tend to go into work and do 11-7 ish, so they are more consistent. I don''t usually manage to take two days off during the week to make up for the weekend (pause for sympathy) so I do less on a Sunday to make up for it. But I am lucky in that I can work from home. The others can moderate from home, and often do, but not do anything else.Celia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sugest anyone with doubts should check that site out as it''s a perfect example of how a popular message board can be properly managed (not a slur at our moderating team on ANY level).
