[QUOTE]Originally posted by BlessedbyHorus: [QB] Okay where do I begin? :) Before I joined this site I have always been a lurker that fell in love with how posters here provided valuable data on African history and African bio-anthropology. However, we can all agree that the lack of moderating here has left this site especially this section of Egyptology in a decaying state. Punos_Rey has made me mod of the Egyptology section because he alone can not tackle all of Egyptsearch and will need help. I never envisioned myself being mod of this site but here we are. But anyways enough of me rambling on. My goal for the Egyptology section is to make it great again. My ultimate goal with getting it out of its decaying state and on the level that it can rival other bio-anthropological forums. I want it to be a section where [b]serious[/b] African(or non-African) history and bio-anthropology discussions are discussed and only that. I know some of you maybe hesitant to support me as a new mod being that I am a recent member and not a vet. And I completely understand that. But I want to say(like I said before) that I am a mod on another, but also compared to the other mods I am the most less strict and friendly mod on that site(sometimes TOO much). So I want to ease whatever skepticism anyone has about my modship. Moving on and I want to address this because it is IMPORTANT. As mod I promise that there will be NO repeat NO personal vendattas against other members by me. I know I have gotten into some heated debates against some of you but that is where it ends. Again there will be no personal targets. And if that does occur please report me to Punos Rey. I don't care if you are a moderate, Afrocentric, Eurocentric, Asiancentric or Aliencentric there will be no personal attacks. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Moving along to the rules: 1. Like I said this section is only for [b]serious[/b] African/non-African History and Bio-Anthropological discussions only! Any discussions that do not fit this bill will be moved to the other section. What I mean by "serious" is no off-topic, pseudo-historic/scientific, alternative history, political, trolling,etc,etc topics. So before you guys create a topic please at least make it fit the theme of this section. :) 2. I know discussions can get heated, but I prefer there to be civil discussions with no insults. I'm very laid back(even on the other site) and will allow many to get away with it. However, if it gets out of control to the point of the topic going nowhere then I will be forced to lock the thread. Which I do not want to do. 3. If you have any problems, wanna report something, etc then please PM me. I will make sure that my PM box is not always full. Also, I want to say that if you guys hardly see me on here do not get worked up or hesitate to PM me... It just means I am busy with work or college but that does not mean I won't be lurking this forum. More importantly when you send me a PM here I also get the PM through my Gmail account which I ALWAYS check. So again do not be hesitant to PM me if you see my activity here has gotten low. 4. But going to back to point 3 and I wanna make this rule CLEAR. Reporting members due to personal vendettas will NOT repeat will NOT be tolerated 5. Images that are large to the point of making topics inactive will be changed to link form. Please try not to post incredibly images that make the topic hard for people to read and post. 6. People I see spamming threads(large images/large texts) for the purpose of ruining said thread, I will make SURE that same person gets banned and quickly. This is a rule that I will enforce thoroughly. This is because I view Egyptsearch as a library and many people even lurkers like reading through the discussions here. And I know many people who say they are lurkers and just like the read the threads here. People who spam threads to ruin them take that quality charm about Egyptsearch away. So you all may want to read this rule, because it is my strictest one yet. 7. After reviewing this rule with posters who vouched for it, I am finally adding rule #7. This rule is not only to get discussions/debates circulating more, but more importantly to flush out the trolling and spamming. If you are posting any content/material please at commentary of some sort [b]especially if you are replying to someone.[/b] Otherwise, it will be seen as trolling/spamming. As for making threads, this is also important. Don't just make a thread with no commentary we want to know YOUR THOUGHTS on it, otherwise the thread will go nowhere and it will just be taking up space. Anyways, those are the rules for now. And if you guys have any suggestions then please let me know. I hope we all can change this forum around. [/QB][/QUOTE]
