Becoming a ThanalMaram Moderator

Are you a caring person who likes helping others? Do you hate it when spam and harrassing posts drive people away from our forum? Do you enjoy wandering around TM until late hours? if your answer is YES, then you are the kind of person we are looking for


Do you know the responsibilities of a forum moderator ? Here are few !!

1. Foster a sense of community, caring and responsiveness in your assigned forum(s). This can be done easily by getting involved in discussions, responding to posts (especially those no one else reponds to), and offering your support.

2. Monitor your forum section for abusive posts, unauthorized spam or advertisements, copyright infringements, any sort of harrassment, and any other violations of the forum rules and edit, merge, move or delete posts that violate these rules (you will be granted access to the moderator control panel). Send warnings to members who repeatingly violate the forum rules.

3. Participate in the private Moderator's Workshop. Only current moderator's have access to this forum, hidden at the bottom of the main forum listing. This is the place to post questions, concerns, problems, ask for help, get feedback and input from your fellow moderators. It is a good idea to visit this forum regularly to keep updated with changes in the forums.


How do I signup to become a moderator ?

Once you have familiarized yourself with the forums and have read the forum rules, you are on your way to becoming a moderator. Preference in moderator applications is given to members who have been actively participating in our forums for a while, made good contributions to the forum, followed the rules and had been a nice and friendly member.

However, to become a forum moderator the following restrictions apply:
- Be a fully registered forum member
- Be an active member with not less than 1000 post.
- Commit to review of their assigned sub-forum twice weekly
- You should not have violated the forum rules in any case at any time
- You should have a balanced character
- You should allow, invite and consider different point of views in a discussion
- Remain moderator for a term of 6 months

If you think you are the right person to be a moderator please contact any TM Board members. And if we feel you are the right person we will assign your member account with Moderator permissions and privileges.

Your efforts will not go unnoticed. You will be doing others (and yourself) a great deal of good. You will be helping us to develop one of the best and most active community forum on the Internet.

Thanks for your willingness to serve!!!
