The Question and Answer Board

Change in Stock Board Moderator Assignments:

It took a few days for the 40 watt lightbulb in my noggin to turn on.

Some of the expressed concerns are from current Mods who have been conscientious in having a task oriented and T.O.U. compliant board, including the mentorship of chosen Assistants to lead by example and to be sentiment agnostic in all applications of the T.O.U.

Although there won't be a head Moderator to be in charge of the boards that had set those higher standards for participation from all contributing members the leadership principles of the existing team of Mods should still prevail when new appointments are made by ADMIN. Those well managed boards will adjust to the changes.

It appears that one of the reasons for the change in Stock Board Moderator Assignments is for the boards that have not been well managed, where positive sentiment of a stock was the primary criteria for becoming a Mod and Assistant Mod, and applying the T.O.U. was a secondary consideration. Members who wanted to join the Mods of those boards were screened by the MOD for their sentiment and not by their T.O.U. credentials, and were often denied positions on the Mod roster.

There will be new opportunities for conscientious Moderators to apply to ADMIN for nomination to the many boards that they previously were prevented from joining as Mods. Newer members who may have wanted to become Mods, but didn't for whatever reasons, will now be able to apply to ADMIN. Their pro or con sentiment on a particular stock will be irrelevant, as it should be, and fairly applying the T.O.U. will be the only consideration.

ADVFN / IHUB personnel have made IHUB a technological masterpiece through changes and improvements....and adjustments by its members. The changes in Stock Board Moderator Assignments will now apply uniformity in T.O.U. moderating for all stock boards.

For those who lead by example, seize the opportunities. For those who have led by agenda and sentiment bias, get with the plan for sentiment agnostic moderating.

OK....I think I'm up to a 100 watt lightbulb now.
