Moderator Elections


 Share

Recommended Posts

For the very first time, TalkChelsea forums are holding Moderator Elections for the next position on the Staff Team. Previously, the Administrators have appointed new global moderators, but this time, we're holding open elections that ensures a popular choice is elected into power.

This comes in light of the fact that I will not be able to ensure my activity to the forum after the summer due to university commitments, staff members being away on holiday over the summer and other reasons for absence.

The way the elections will work is relatively simple:

  • Firstly, people will be able to submit their names forward with a brief summary of why they want to be part of the Staff Team here on TalkChelsea.
  • The current Staff Team will then assess the credentials of all of the applicants, and, in an interview format, will ask the applicants a series of questions which will then enable the Staff to whittle down the number of people running for the position down to a shortlist of four.
  • The four nominees will then be encouraged to start an election campaign, which users will be able to support through campaign topics in a specially-made sub-forum under Announcements, Feedback and Support which will be put up in June.
  • The current Staff Team will then choose the final two candidates based on popularity, the success of their election campaigns and their suitability to the position (such as past experience, length of time here at TalkChelsea and other relevant criteria).
  • The final two will then go to a straightforward public vote to determine who will be elected.
Basically, this is just to have a bit of fun and excitement. The election campaigns will offer a heck of a lot of banter and discussion, and it gives every member the opportunity to put their names forward.
There are no restrictions at all on who can apply.
So, if you are interested in becoming a staff member, please put forward your name in this topic. The next stage will see one of the Staff Team contact you with a brief form that you will need to fill out over private message. If you progress to the next round, we will send you a set of questions to answer, and if you again impress the Staff you'll be put forward into the final elections.
If you've got any questions - just ask!
Best of luck to you all,
Alex.

We get it, advertisements are annoying!
Talk Chelsea relies on revenue to pay for hosting and upgrades. While we try to keep adverts as unobtrusive as possible, we need to run ad's to make sure we can stay online because over the years costs have become very high.

Could you please allow adverts on this website and help us by switching your ad blocker off.
