Dear members,
We have for a long time had the same team of moderators. But some get new jobs, others simply doesn’t feel they have the time for the community anymore.
So we’re looking for new members of the DUG moderators corps!
But what does it mean to be a moderator?
The job as a moderator could be seen very much as someone working at a gas station. You make sure that there’s gas enough. Sometimes you help people getting gas on their car. And if they are stuck on the street with no gas, then you might even bring them a can of gas, so that they can drive back to the gas station. If someones tries to put diesel on instead of gas, then you might direct them to the right pump (forum). Or if their windows are dirty you might clean them (help clerify a unclear question). But most of the times, you don’t need to do anything. Just smile and be happy about your fine uniform (the moderator badge on your profile)! Except if they forget to pay, then you have to remind them (to verify the right solution).
Who can become a moderator?
Not everyone can become a moderator. It’s expected that you’re are online almost every day during the week (not weekends), but of course you migth have days or weeks where you’re not able to check any posts. As the moderators should be someone the other members who as very knowledgeble, then you should be able to show a “good record” of posts where you have solved members problems. Either here on DUG or on other sites or blogs.
Several of our current Dynamics MVP’s have actually started their “Dynamics Carreer” as a moderator here on DUG. So if that’s your future goal, then it’s a good place to start.
So what should you do?
If you would like to become a moderator, then please look at the list of forums below. If there are any of the forums you would like to become the moderators of then please let me know.
There might be one or two of the forums where we actually have a moderator, but where I mistakenly have not filled in the right name. Then also please let me know.
