@ Aces There are some moderators who are primarily inactive, even when active, they hardly post anything useful. Is it befitting of the job? Except for the founder moderators(obviously deserve leeway), everyone else should be expected to perform IMO. Change keeps some people fresh. It doesn't...

Excellent write-up cranky :) It doesnt have to be elections, like I said, sectional mods can be changed half yearly by the global moderators. It keeps them fresh and motivated to lead, post and contribute usefully. IMO the primary responsibilty of "Section Mods " should be to post...

Section mods can't promise that in any case :P Section mods are expected to have knowledge and interest in their section. They are also expected to post good reliable information consistently, apart from maintaining some discipline and mood.

I entirely agree with Sharekhan. Every eligible member should have a chance to manage/assist the forum. It just keeps everyone interested and the powers should not be akin to a royal throne that you inherit for life. Section moderators should be rotated every 6months IMO, with or without...

I hope no one gets me wrong here. Your twisted rationale can be met with another twisted rationale :P The tax we pay are in the form of "posts", "traffic" that bring in "revenue". Its another matter that we post and read because we like to :)

lol... You cant blame him though. How good is a campaign that cant be heard?

@ phoenix Sorry, Did I offend you? In any case, I already agreed that reputation should be more of the deciding factor. Look above :)

Hmm, true, elections do have a propensity to breed favoritism. Good point!

Exactly why I said only members with 500+ posts should be able to vote :P

When staff recruit, it is more of an appointment/recruitment and less of an election, hence termed recruitment drive. I have nothing against that and you deservedly got selected.

Its a good idea. How is this proposition ? - Only the long standing global moderators, who are more the founders here, should be in the elite panel and don't have to stand for elections. IMO all the section mods should be elected. Only members with 1000+ posts should be able to apply and...

From the little action that I caught online, It doesnt appear like the pitch has deteriorated a lot although it isnt as easy paced for sure. SL should have done better. Thats the beauty of test cricket. No pitch in the world will play the same on all 5 days. If you want similar pitch on all 5...

I tried Wire. Saw the first episode and dropped it. I see TV series' with my wife and she just hated the first episode. I didn't like it either. Maybe I gave up too soon.

Congrats! Have seen some of your awesome photographs. That DSLR will surely be put to good use.

Is anyone still watching Heroes? Watching Season 4. Why can’t Hiro just travel back in time to the moments before Samuel abducted Charlie and prevent it? So many loose ends, its beginning to look stupid...

Good review. On what settings did you bench Batman:Arkham Asylum?

Dont worry, that record is safe. India now 619/6. Dhoni out for 4. Edit: India lose last 6 wkts for 29 runs. Hopefully, thats a sign of things to come. Return of the bowlers perhaps :P Edit: Dilshan out first ball. Not a great ball though...

The last ep of Dexter was bizarre. Thats just NOT Dexter.

You have missed 24!

PS can use discreet graphics on occasions, but the whole thing is still crappy. For the most part you really dont need it. No harm in getting a cheap but decent 4670 though .
