Dorian ... my opinion on this was stated early, briefly, and quite concisely, viz:
I'd not be in favour. There would IMHO be more flaming about what the moderators did/did not do or alter than what is ever in the posts!
As an example of the difficulty of locating moderators, someone above has volunteered to undertake such a job. That same person was on another thread a day or so back very aggressively urging me to identify by name a person openly selling "VOID IF SOLD" upgrades on an auction. I did not name the person, but others based on that strident urging did so. That seller (a regular FT board member and has in fact posted on this thread) may now possibly be expelled from MP and its highest level and have all his/her program points confiscated. So being a moderator requires certain judgement calls, and many of us may not be always able to make the correct ones. It is a tough job.
The two heaviest users of FlyerTalk,
Doc and Rudi say right here THEY do not want the job, and that lead just may indicate how difficult it may be for any of us to undertake.
If you feel Randy's thoughts on moderators were not important to mention on his boards, I apologise for raising them. It just seemed vaguely pertinent to me.
