If this whole process of a MOD TEAM is to scare players then wouldn't it make more sense to keep the team seamless from a public vote and invisible to the site players? Wouldn't this be more of a deterrent to "cheating" the the current method? Yes, if Russ wants a Mod Team by all means create one but to have forum noise be the virtue to creating such a process is not efficient and a diservice to the general members.

If you think you belong on the MOD TEAM by virtue of your low rating and that "I don't cheat" then that should be your exclusion right away. We want people on the MOD TEAM that UNDERSTAND CHESS!!!!
Originally posted by Very RustyI don't think you can imply the number of mods that will be selected from the number of votes each of us has. I think there will be at least 4 mods, and more likely 5 or 6.
I had thought they might put more than 3 on the team though, it seems like quite a load of work for 3 men to look after on a site as big as this with all the members...Anyone aware of how many members we have on this site? I am sure it is massive !
Originally posted by GatecrasherI was thinking that 6-8 with the amount of work that would be involved, and the amount of people that are on the site. But 5-6 is sure better than 3 😉 !!! Last I heard free speech was ok, oh and by the way, you have my support, not that it matters much...It was a given that you would be back on the team !!!

P.S. Just because I don't like the way a certain matter was handled, doesn't mean I don't respect what you have put into making the site, a better place for us. I do realize the hours you sacrifice for the site, and kudo's to you for it.!!!
Originally posted by KatonahHa, well...I'm pretty sure I have at least a decent understanding of chess as well (Though not 2000+ like yours). You're welcome to challenge me if you have this idea that I'm a patzer or something...

I'd prefer to play on ICC though, my username is CMSSacrifice.
