Wanted: Classifieds Section Moderator


The classifieds section is beginning to get a little ragged-too much chit chat, threads/posts not deleted once the item is sold (or found!), etc. We have discussed this and we feel the best course of action is a dedicated, classifieds section moderator that will take ownership of the classifieds section.


The ideal candidate is well spoken, easy going, has strong English skills and most importantly, understands how to deal with different personalities and can diffuse difficult situations. Prior management experience preferred but not required.


Benefits:
You'll pay no taxes on your income.
You'll be part of an elite team of douchebags
You'll be able to assist people in the HMV hobby
You'll learn lots of new ways for people to call you dirty names and get them past the dirty word filter


Downsides:
You'll receive no pay
Weird hours
Weird co-workers
Harassment from people who think you are editing their ad because you're a Satanist who hates them, America, Mom, apple pie and dogs.


Please pm your application to patracy and you will be added to the applicant pool.


Understand that the position will be offered under a probationary, 30-day trial period, after which we will decide whether to keep you on or let you back into the woods.

The successful applicant will have great latitude in moderating the classifieds section but will occasionally have to defer to our judgement.


Job will be renewed on a yearly basis.

At the risk of ticking off potential applicants this thread is starting to look some of the classified threads we are trying to fix. ;-)


From the OP:

Please pm your application to patracy and you will be added to the applicant pool.

After deleting 7 or 8 posts here yesterday, I almost closed this thread.

It is not a conversation, it is a wanted ad/ site improvement thread!

It is not here to discuss the last classifieds moderator.

It does "eliminate" some prospects, by noting that they can not follow directions.

Where in the first post does it say to NOT post anything in this thread?

If it is not open for conversation, why wasn't the thread immediately locked by Clinto?
You are correct, It doesn't say that. But it did say this:

Please pm your application to patracy and you will be added to the applicant pool.
We'll bump the thread from time to time until we make a selection.

Thanks everyone!

Food for thought, we may select a couple(2 or 3) members to work together for this task.

Get your applications in guys, we're gonna choose soon.
