Raz, who out of the moderators has been always a moderator? Or did you appont them all as the time went by...? Just curious who were moderators at the begining or did you do it all by yourself?
I didn't really know the forum too well, even though I created it, and most of the members were fighting between themselves on who should be mod. At the time I chose UnknownBountyHunter (he's left since) because he seemed the sensible type. Later on it was decided that we create a "Jedi Council" (because we were a Star Wars board at that time) who would be the sort of guardians of the forum. They collectively made decisions including recruiting mods. I think the next mods was Dim, queeq and Gundark - although I'm not 100% sure.
Man it makes me nostalgic just think about it π
π Alright!
So no one was a mod straight away....the reason i asked this was because you posted that thread Ush made ages ago, and i remembered, I always thought Ush was always a global moderator...kind of appointed because you two were friends...i dont know why i thought that, just did, so i was just checking.
Many of the old global moderators do not visit anymore, as well as some memeber, that must be a little frustrating...still cool though, as now Killer Movies isnt just Star Wars forum...
Ush was actually one of the fifth global mod, after the others (Dim, queeq, Gundark, finti). It's only Dim, one of the original moderators, who doesn't visit that often. She used to be VERY active before, but real life situation means she can't visit that often. The others do still visit and occasionally post.
Before we "merged" with KillerMovies, we were primarily a Star Wars website (http://www.episode-ii.co.uk - website offline (long story)). We were on EZboard at the start when they were free - but they soon went pay and we found a new home here.
