This is a follow up post on where I wrote about having your forum members pick their moderators. If you’d like to read the first post you can do so here.

It’s safe to say this idea was a success. I wrote a thread on my World of Warcraft Forum where members could nominate themselves or other members on the forum that they’d like to have be moderators rather than simply leaving the task to the administrator. We now have two moderators on the site that are both interested in doing it and received some nominations. I think that from now on I plan to add moderators to my new forums via member nominations because this way the members have more of a say in who helps to shape the community. Even for a smaller forum this tactic worked out well.

Has anyone else tried doing this before?

Side Note:

In the past several weeks I’ve been working really hard on this blogs, my forums, finishing up paperwork and more. So because of the hard work and the fact that Halo 3 came out recently, I haven’t been as active on my blogs and forums. For those of you that haven’t read my about me page, I suggest you read it. One of the primary reasons why I am running websites now is because of my success in using videos from Halo 2 as a promotion tool. I’m obviously still a Halo fan so I was looking forward to Sept. 25th and some time to relax. Now that I’ve taken a solid break I’ll be playing less Halo and getting some more work done
