Moderator Applications

[Vivi Ornitier]

There was a hack like this in vb2 but i don't think one was ever made for vb3.

The gist of the hack is, it creates a page where potential moderators fill out info and then it gets sent as a thread to certain specified forum(s).

This is by far one of the most useful hacks for a forum that has a lot ofp eople and has lots of people that want modship. Instead of having them spam you on AIM about being mod, this way, you can have current moderators vote on the application and therefore do it in a more democratic way that makes everyoen happy. Or you can just have it for the organization and whatnot.

Is anyone contemplating makin this?

Ah, Lesane's hack for vB2. I have been toying with this but haven't gotten serious about it yet. I will see what I can come up with on it. ;)

[Vivi Ornitier]

that would be great man, it's a very very useful hack to say the least.

Doesn't have to be relaly confusing, as long as it's capable of making an application that creates a thread in a forum or two forums (the latter is good cause that's what I'd need).

[Loyalty4Life]

I was just about to make a thread about this until I did a search and found this thread. I would love to see a Moderator Application hack for vB3! That would be awesome. Boofo, how serious are you about making it? I would be grateful if you would do it! I'm sure many others would be, as well. :)

[Boofo]

We're working on it. ;)

[Loyalty4Life]

Sorry for sounding... pushy ;) but are you actually working on it, or are you still thinking about doing it? :)

[Boofo]

We're wortking on it. I need it, too. ;)

[Vivi Ornitier]

w00t, can't wait for it, thx heaps

[Loyalty4Life]

Cool. Don't forget to PM me when you release it in case I don't see it or overlook it. ;)

Thanks for making it! I can't wait. :)

[Vivi Ornitier]

Sorry, guys, it had to be put on hold a bit. It seems now that I'm a Mod here they expect me to actually act like one now and do some Modding. If I had only known before. ;)

I'll get right back on it and report back as soon as I have something. Sorry for the delay. ;)

[Vivi Ornitier]

boofo? lol, sorry, just very anxious, you don't have to respodn if you don't want to.

[Loyalty4Life]

Boofo - Any progress? :) I can't wait for to see your version of the hack.

[Vivi Ornitier]

[Boofo]

You guys need to calm down. ;)

I'm doing the best I can with all that I have to do. I also have to get the ok from Lesane before it gets released for vB3. Just sit tight and it will be worth waiting for. ;)

[Vivi Ornitier]

When my site gets more members and I have to choose mods. I'm going to make a sticky in the thread and just put please send me a private message including ALL of the following in the same order. Then put stuff like:

Experience:

posistion applied for:

Why you would want to be a mod:

What categories:

and stuff like that.

[U-Dox]

yeah anybody can do that. it also looks better and easier to do it this way.

who wants to keep gettin PMed about a mod job?

[msimplay]

lol i want this hack coz i made it a rule that people can't ask me to be a mod
but now i got a double dilemma coz i dunno who is qualified :P

Well after you found all of your mods, just delete the thread that is about the mod applications. Its either that or waiting months to get this modification that everone wants. I don't really need this now though, because my board has only been up for 5 weeks and only has 131 members so far. Prob around 400 or so I'll choose my mods. By then this modification could be out then again it couldn't. Not really concerning me though, if it is I'll use it, then if it isn't I'll do it the way I was going to anywase. No biggie to me though.

Its not really any easier doing it any way. They both are just as easy in my eyes.

thanks :)

[Vivi Ornitier]

I need this hack because i have staff forums and i let the current mods vote on the moderator application, kinda like a congressional system so all the mods have a say in the appointment. This is better because the mod team is all about how well they can work together. If i just appoint a mod, i might not know how well he's like amongst the other mods so this way it is better.

So if this hack were to be made, it would have an application page and the results would be submitted to certain forums as a new thread, very useful and handy for my system.

And also, i have 300000 posts, 1500 active members and more people than i can keep track of from pms.

[Vivi Ornitier]

booooooofoooooooooooooooooooo??? u still alive wit dis one?

[Boofo]

An update: The hack is almost done. Just need to clean up the code a little, but I am stopping work on this hack temporarily until I can get an ok to release it from the original author. Without that ok, this version will never see the light of day. So be patient and let's hope he gives us the thumbs up. ;)

[Vivi Ornitier]

whoa really? yay! go boofo! go lesane! (please say yes)

[Loyalty4Life]

here's hoping we can see this for vb3!!

[Vivi Ornitier]

??? any news on this? lol so desperate

[MaxScript]

i'm in >>> :)

[Loyalty4Life]

Boooooofoooooooooo! :nervous:

[Boofo]

Come on, guys, this is getting a little bad. This hack is on hold until the ok comes from Lesane. That might not even be happening now. If that is the case, then the only way this will ever get released is if I write it as all new code from the ground up. You guys are either going to have to hold off and bear with me as I attempt this, or it just isn't going to happen. It's up to you now. Which is it going to be? ;)

[Xenon]

Bob, i got contacted by Lesane via Mail.

Hi Xenon,

Would you give the green light for me on this post?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=514014&postcount=36

so, i think this means yes :)

[cinq]

Hmm that's odd , I thought there was a vb3 version of this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=53269&page=1&pp=15) somewhere.
If so it could be modified for use for moderator application too :)

[Vivi Ornitier]

booooooooooofooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol, i think u will know the purpose of this post.

?????? lol, still desperate

[Rick Sample]

I just made an electronic modorator application form! :banana: Its just a basic electronic form that asks questions, and users must fill in the blank. If they skip a question and they hit submit, it will give an error telling them to fill in all blanks. If they fill in all blanks correctly, it will give them a little thank you letter thats like 2-3 sentences long.

Its not for Vbulletin, but its usefull to me and I'll be using it here shortly to get my mods! :banana:

[U-Dox]

wow i thought once he got the ok we were going to be able to get it. no we have to wait again... :(

As promised, here is something even better! ;)

i quite liked how the mod application form went, plus theirs some additional features that would be nice, like auto response, a new thread @ application submission and a pre-canned text rebuttle/approval/'keep you on file' type thing. along with a more information gathered via initial form.

i always get people saying we've heard nothing from you, so would like to also set it to send a 'we'll keep you on file' after XX days. oh well i'm just dreaming but it's a few ideas i had if anyone wants to make one.

This hack is not what I call *better* ... the original hack sends a message to the admins and mods in their cp's, this hack you refer to requires a whole lot of work to get it to work the way the old hack did.

Erwin needs to re-word the hack better, so others can understand really what this hack does.

[adhari_com]

I agree ;)

man you guys are retards posting the same ++++ everyday wanting this bofu guy to do your work, if you want it so bad why dont you make one yourself?
