Re: Discussion Board in Toggle Mode


Posted by: Mark H. () on Mon Mar 3 00:04:53 2003


As we have done in the past, the discussion board has been placed in Toggle Mode, meaning that posts will not appear until they are reviewed, in order to end the waive of posts that are unrelated to baseball and softball or posts that engage in personal attacks, rather than a discussion of ideas relating to baseball and softball. This is a discussion board that accepts posts related to baseball and softball, unlike a chatroom or news group or some other discussion boards which may accept every post. Certain posts may not be accepted, including the following: material unrelated to baseball or softball, nuisance material, spam or chatroom material, advertising material, harassing material, personal attacks and any other issue which we may review on a case by case basis.

It's a shame but this was easy to see coming and sadly, necessary IMO. Perhaps, in order to speed up the timeliness of posts being approved, batspeed could pick a few co-moderators such as people like Tom etc who would have the ability to review and approve posts whenever they happened to be online, thus not only speeding things up but also taking some load off of you? I have seen this work well on other boards. Of course if a co-moderator doesn't work out, you just suspend their privileges.
