Advertise your site section. About time?

[iMatt]

Sam said he will add this at around 30 members and 5000 posts.
It is around that now so can we have one now?

[JoeyLostDharma]

Yeah, I think we should.

[+zai@FFF]

I think an ad section is a bad idea at the moment!

The point is to come here to chat about The Simpsons and maybe a little off topic chats and discussions, not to advertise. GrrrRRRrrrRRRR

Really, why is advertising on every single forum so important? I don't get it.

[iMatt]

I know but we put all the effort in advertising this forum we should be able to advertise ours.

[Sam_]

I'm voting for we do it when we hire moderators (in the future).

[TNT94]

I think at 5000 posts not yet and mabye not straight away.
There should be a 100 limeit like cmf has 50 limt

[netsavy006]

Yea, a limitation like that might be in order, to ensure people participate somewhat before promoting their site, but does it really have to be 100 posts? Wouldn't 50 be enough?

[Cloverfield]

Look how quick and easy people got to 100.

[iMatt]

Yeah. But you could put a rule like you have to link back then we get more members.

[netsavy006]

That's not a problem. Once a 88x31 affiliate button is posted I will be glad to add it to my forum affiliates.

[JoeyLostDharma]

When you choosing mods anyway?

[+zai@FFF]

I think you should be a Full Member AKA 1000+ posts (Progress Complete) to be able to promote anything here. That's fair.

[JoeyLostDharma]

That sounds fair, I guess.

[netsavy006]

Whatever the number I will respect it.

[Cloverfield]

Thanks, yeah, we did the link back thing on CMF as well.

[sbfc93]

I think this place needs a mod now, because of the insane amount of activity.

However this is the admin's decision and I will respect it :P

[Cloverfield]

At the end of the day, it is still only 40 members we are moderating...

[sbfc93]

I know, but the most active 40 members I have ever seen.
Imagine carlsberg making a forum :lol:

[Cloverfield]

It woulsn't be better than this :P:P

[+zai@FFF]

:lol:

The very first Moderator will have his/her hands full, I think the first moderator should be wise, friendly, great at spelling and using correct grammar, active, loves the TV show The Simpsons, knows how to moderate, have been a moderator before, should be able to solve problems/issues in a timely matter off the forums via email and/or PM system, ect. ect.

Good luck on finding this very skilled person. :P

[sbfc93]

Are you implying anything? :lol:

[+zai@FFF]

What do you mean kind sir? :P

[sbfc93]

Are you suggesting you should be mod? :lol:

Would look great on anyone's resume.

[Squirt]

Lol, If you ask to be a moderator your chances are killed!

[+zai@FFF]

Who asked to be mod?

[MovieMan8877445]

Who asked to be mod?

You Implied It, Well At Least That's What It Looked Like.

[Sam_]

Actually, once we decide to hire moderators we'll probably open a new board for so-called applications. It is debatable whether everyone will be able to see your application or just you and the administrators. Applications will be judged on the following:

- Activity
- Posts
- Quality of Posts
- Language (Fluent English?)
- Effort put into Application
- Maturity level

From there we may choose one or two moderators, who knows when we'll start though. Oh and, yes, a few people have asked to be moderators. I can personally guarantee they will not have my vote.

[+zai@FFF]

Sounds good Sam, no need to rush things though. :P

That is all the qualities needed to be a good mod, nice application criterias.

[Cloverfield]

I'm quite sure the applications should be private to everyone other than the application starter and the 2 admins.

[JoeyLostDharma]

Sounds cool. I doubt I'll bother to apply though.

[+zai@FFF]

Or just have the person send the application to an email address or to someone via PM?

[Cloverfield]

Nah, we'll just make a private forum.

[+zai@FFF]

That will work too...

[sbfc93]

Applications aren't open yet are they?

[Cloverfield]

No .

[George]

Well the forum being up 2 days i dont think it is ready get to be honest with you maybe a couple of weeks.

[iMatt]

I'd say the next week or so we should get one.

[George]

Yes i agree matt +1.

[iMatt]

Thanks George *Gives Rep*

[George]

Thanks,so yeah that is my point on the subject.

[+zai@FFF]

I'm sure when the admins think it's ready for a moderator than they will make a choice to promote someone or open applications. :)

[Vintage1998]

I won't be promoted! my change went up in a bang in the staff thread! :lol: anyway shall we get back too the subject as we are off topic!

[+zai@FFF]

I'm sure if the admins want to create a advertising section here than they will do it. ;)

[MovieMan8877445]

Way Off-Topic.

[+zai@FFF]

Yeah, I thought I was in another thread, oops... :lol:

Anyways, I'll try to advertise SFF as much as possible. :P

[MovieMan8877445]

This Is About An Advertise Section, Not You Advertising SFF On Other Sites, Hahaha. You Got The Wrong Thread Again.

[+zai@FFF]

Then my post wasn't off topic now wasn't it? :P

[MovieMan8877445]

Then my post wasn't off topic now wasn't it? :P

I Didn't Say It Was Off-Topic, I Just Said It Was The Wrong Thread.

[Cloverfield]

Now you're both off topic...

[George]

Close this...
