I am seeing some more moderators around the site (aclauser, dadink13,...). Were they added for the new OT forums?

2) Who will moderate the new forums?

Dice599 wrote:3.) When will the forums open up.
1. For now, post counts will not be affected in any of the OT forums.
2. We have our 3 current moderators, DADINK13 has accepted an invitation to be a new moderator (congrats!), and we have invited one more user to be a new moderator (he hasn't been online yet, so we're not sure of his decision). There will be a total of 5 OT moderators as well as Ryan and myself.
3. The new forums will open up as soon as we have the moderator team in place.

You forgot Ryan.

Actually I did not forget Ryan. I just left him out because I did not know Ryan was part of the "Moderators" group since there is no need

But Ryan is part of the Mod group? I'm confused as to what you mean.

There is only 1 group: Moderators.
Mark/Ryan just have higher powers than us.

Then why did Anthony leave him out? I'm still confused.

I have no idea.

My guess is because Mark in essense is the major moderator of the forums. If you notice, Mark's here all the time, interacting and posting with all of us. Mark and Ryan do seem to be collaborating over forum issues, but at least to me it seems that Mark is the one who takes care of it. Mark was the one who recruitted myself as one of the new mods, and in our "Moderators" group, Mark (not Ryan) is the one who moderates the group.

Anyone else understand what I mean?

EDIT: While Ryan does post here quite a bit, I tend to see Mark check in with the forums a bit more often than Ryan does.

I think I understand...While Ryan is listed as a Moderator under all the forums, his rank is 'Developer' and not Moderator. Is that what you mean?

I was getting at something like that. I guess you could say that Mark is the (using Plasma's lingo) "Keeper of the Board." The other mods and myself are more like the "Keepers of the Sanity."

Ryan just makes cool stuff..lol..explaining the "Developer" rank he has. He does also have administrative control over these boards--just like Mark does. He has just as much power as Mark does, but Mark appears to be the one who's been delegated the head moderator.

That's because Mark is the Website dude. He developed and maintains the Big-O-Software.com domain, and message boards.

While Ryan on the other hand is strictly the programmer behind our nice applications.
