The Dog House and Cotswoldman would seem to be the ideal candidates for this role.

I'd concur with the second, but would add MJB for an alternative

i think you are the ideal candidate, I mean stuck ashore, proper Internet, interest in canals and their people, knowledge of the authorities. Talk your way out of that

Hehe not for me I hate authority but thanks anyway. I will fight boredom by continuing to come on here and disagreeing with everyone except those that agree with me

[patty-ann]

Oh and you have a knack of stopping some wandering off topic. Over the years I've seen you spring to novices aid 'when they have. Been assaulted on here. Well if not you who would you nominate?

Seems to work fine at moment I think you can over do moderation.

[the barnacle]

i might not contributr much to the forum but i read i spend alot of time reading the threads,

 

i think - Alan_Fincher and Mike The Boilerman would add alot to the crew.

 

 

...

[junior]

I nominate Starcoaster.

[RLWP]

Erm,

 

this is all jolly stuff - I'd suggest that you can nominate loads of folk.

 

And it's for someone who actually wants to do the job to step forward

Very kind of you to say so. But I'd be a terrible moderator. I'd be endlessly deleting the squabbly off-topic posts that derail threads!

 

I'd like to nominate the barnacle (clearly a very sensible boater) and RLWP, obviously

Exactly off topics need deleting, one of the reasons. You are in the frame

[MtB]

Excellent. I thought I was the only one who objected to them!

 

Something we agree on at last

[RLWP]

I turned the job down years ago - I don't want the responsibility thanks.

i am a mod on another non boat site thats enougth for me - i think you would perfect Mike. - "I'd be endlessly deleting the squabbly off-topic posts that derail threads" - thats what it needs. see your doing a great job already.

 

What RLWP says is right - nominations are all well but its someone that wants the job needs to step forward.

[MtB]

I am already an unofficial mod.

 

I'm constantly deleting posts of my own, before even posting them

I do alot of that myself, type them then delete them thinking better, - Hey if you were a mod you could now delete this off topic post-
