Please rate us, your forum Mods (Rick B, Coach Mc_Guirk, BigHorn and Cannon - not Yoss as he joined us last week) and how we moderated this forum, Arsenal, in 2006. These polls have been created at the request of the BigSoccer Admins in an effort to improve our community and clarify our newly revised community guidelines for the coming year. Please be honest, civil, and fair in your responses. After one week, we will attempt to respond and address your praise and criticism.

I, Rick B, have moderated this forum since 2004. Along with the above Mods I have taken this forum to being the 2nd largest in terms of posts and views club forum on this site behind only DC United. I also moderate all the other Club forums in the Premiership along with other forums on this site.

Cannon: I've moderated the Arsenal board since last winter. I'm also a Mod for the UEFA board.

Please use the thread as an opportunity to provide feedback. Please note all comments are public intentionally. Your vote, however, will not be public. Your comments can address both the way the board is moderated and the way individual Mods moderate.

Mods may not respond for 7 days. This should allow everyone time to cool off and answer maturely.

SuperMods and Admins will review all results and discuss problems (and praise).

Mods will be urged to bring up points of praise and concern on the Mods board for further discussion as well.

EDIT - As per some posters confusion, we are doing this like grades in High school or Grammer school so A is best and D is worst.

Cannon/Rick EDIT: I'd also like to make it clear that we'd like to learn about the concerns/problems behind your votes especially those that vote C or D so that we know what we need to work on. Otherwise we could just assume that it's Chelsea or Man U posters being "helpful". So help us to sort stuff out if you have any issues and put your comments down. We are all very fair and can take criticism.Thanks.

Generally a first rate job is done by the mods here.

My only moan is about the number of stickies, but it's one I've been on about before, so I won't labour the point.

Besides having one of the Mods editing my posts (;) ) you lot do alright. There are no iron-handed or one-sided tactics like on other boards.

True. But I think Rick gets a little full of himself sometimes. :)

The mods do an excellent job here...but I will also say that compared to a lot of other boards, the posters do make the mods' job a little easier. :D

In any case, it's a wonderful atmosphere here.

I know I'm not around here much anymore, but I think you guys do a great job from what I see. Considering the volume of posts, the number of outsiders who want to take a pop at us, the number of newbies who start rehashed old threads, and the number of passionate members with serious disagreements it must be difficult. Most arguments are allowed to be played out until it's clearly just personal disagreement before threads get locked, which is good. Most spam and trolling gets thrown out quickly, which is good.

To know how well the Arsenal board moderators handle things here, take some time on nearly every other forum on BigSoccer. Flaming wars, topics derailed, trolling...the list goes on.

The Arsenal boards are always fresh and cleaned up, with the proper line drawn between intelligent discussion and moronic drivel.

A+ for our mods.

We have a good group of mods and we are lucky to have them.

Wait, I can't give the mods anything below a D?

Biased polling system!

;)

Just kidding, keep up the good work, A+!

Who was confused by an alphabetical grading scale? Please tell us so we can make fun.
