I extend my proposal, to include TB candidate. (more important than the "I voted"- which I btw also support.

Thats to help in voting process and ease the evaluation.
Of course the candidates you mention probably wont have to much help to offer, but Im talking about previous TB members.

And I would guess most former TB members would have great insight for potential TB candidates, for people who wants to suggest changes, to be able to get a better grip on how it works behind the scenes.

We have some TalkBoard members running right now that have one month's experience on FT, and another with years here and only 300 posts. I don't think I'd rate either of them as having more experience with FT than those that have taken the time to give you input here. The posters that have answered you here are all very experienced members and know their way around FT.

Not sure if you were making an illustration for what a newbie might think or actually saying you think this yourself, but I just wanted to clarify for you and anyone reading: being a moderator (and a member of TalkBoard, for that matter) is strictly volunteer. The bolded name is about the only thing a moderator gets in exchange for some often hard and thankless work.

FWIW TB candidates used to have a title identifying them as such under their handle but apparently not this year. Don't know why it changed but I think it's something that should be brought back but that's just this humble TB candidates opinion.

After reading more on the TB topics forum lately, I still back this suggestion.

When discussing former motions on TB it would be good to know the posters background/history on the topic.

As this is a "suggestion" forum, I wouldn't expect much action here. Maybe it's time to post in the Talk Board forum and see if they'll put your suggestion up to a vote. Have no idea whether they will run with it, though.

I never got one while I was on TB. I think I was the only one who never got it. Why, I don't know. Never cared enough to ask, though.

That was an illustration for what a newbie might think.
