Huwajux - 1. World - 0.

Yes, moving onto the matter at hand. Zone has 5 moderators because those moderators have a relation to Zone. Why would we need someone who is experienced in Zone to moderate the Era forum? It just doesn't make any sense. Just because the Zone forum is more 'well stocked' in moderators purely means that it is just lucky to have that amount of staff who are willing to help moderate this section of the forums. Hmm, forgive me, I'm rambling.

Basically, Zone has 5 moderators because there are 5 competant moderators available to do the task at hand (Well, maybe discounting Vulcan of course ). Other areas such as the Era section of the forums have less moderators because there are less people available to do the job. The other reason is that the Zone forums are well-managed and have scouted around to hire decent moderators, although in my opinion I'd have to agree that Supernanny is a bit trigger happy, Jesse only does event related things and moderates fairly...averagely (Sorry Jesse!), Dan just does whatever the hell he wants because he can, and I have no idea why Dante is a moderator.

So yes, I guess Dante and Vulcan should be removed from the moderator list, which would narrow it down to just 3 moderators, would that make you happy Rufus?
