IH Admin Matt: Here is some code to run in keeping with the theme, "you might me a redneck if"...

You might be moderating to many boards if the boards you moderate add up to more than half of the posts you've made...LOL

New Moderator/Assistant policies:

-The script will now run on Saturdays (new)
-Moderators not participating in the board in the last 90 days will be removed to free up the space for an active moderator. (Old)
-Assistants not participating in the board will be removed (new)

Adding assistants: It's not acceptable to add an assistant because they are your buddy or otherwise; any assistant added needs to have an active interest in the board and particpate in the discussion.

Becoming Moderator: Admin approve all Moderator adoptions. Do NOT sign up for a board unless you have an active interest in the stock. This means previous and ongoing posts about the stock - not short messages just to take over as Mod.

Starting new boards: Same thing here - by all means, create all the boards you want for stocks that don't exist - however, if you don't have an interest in actively talking about the stock (besides just pasting the last price or a PR or two), do NOT tick the box to be the Moderator.

At the end of the day, what makes the iHub Moderation concept work so well is ACTIVE INTEREST AND PARTICIPATION by the Moderator and Assistants - they make sure the rules get enforced timely and properly because they know what the discussion is really about and are actively around to read the board.

This isn't a system to be 'gamed' for any reason.

We've run this script as of tonight and it will run on Saturdays going forward.
