Introduction
For those unaware, recently, I (Cokedragon) suggested "Forum Admin/Op," a brand new user group consisting of members of the Ben 10 Planet community who can be trusted with overlooking these forums. For more on the base idea, see here.
How It Will Work
As discussed in the main thread, the forum operator is the forum's version of the default user group, the chat moderator/operator. These forum operators will be "regulars" on the forums who can be trusted to block those who spam and manage to vandalize on the forums. Alongside this, they will make sure all users of the forum are adhering to the forum policy while themselves being its adherents.
Forum operators will be entrusted with the ability to close or remove threads when necessary as well as to edit and delete others' messages (where absolutely necessary, such as in the use of profanity or caps shouting). The ability to highlight threads will also be given for the cases in which highlighting is absolutely necessary (such as if said forum admin is moving a suggestion to its public voting stage).
If allowed and the suggestion passed, I'd like to assist with getting the forum operators in place and doing their duties as well as aid in inviting/promoting them to their new positions. An admin as a head of the forum operator group is fitting, right? Plus, I've got a few ideas for people who might just be seeing an invitation if this suggestion goes through.
What It's Come Down To
With a majority vote in favor of this Topic of the Week being introduced to Ben 10 Planet, it comes down simply to you, the regular user, on deciding whether or not the Topic of the Week truly does become a a part of this wiki. All users are to vote in favor by replying below like so:
{{Support|reason}} - For those who want Topic of the Week to happen.
{{Neutral|reason}} - For those who are undecided or are indifferent; you are free to change your decision later (as are those supporting and opposing), but it has to be before we count votes.
{{Oppose|reason}} - For those who are truly against Topic of the Week; you're who we're looking for to see what about Topic of the Week may not be fitting.
The voting will close in two weeks, on August 15, 2013 at 0:00 UTC. This topic will be closed at that time. Also, no administrators or members of CotG are to vote in this stage. You are free to change your vote at any time before the topic closes, and you can also suggest additions here that are relevant to Topic of the Week that may make it even better.
Let the voting commence!
