Today I am proposing that we change the way chat moderators are chosen. So far applications do not work due to everyone and their grandmother applying to become one with the sole reason of "protecting" something that isn't vulnerable. Private admin nominations do not work because as pointed out there is no real community involvement in deciding. The way we had it set up for Castiels "applinominations" was effective but rather sloppy. Here I have come up with a new idea on the matter. This involves having the current moderators and administrators gather up a few users they think would make decent candidates and privately narrow it down to one or two. The next step is to make a forum thread where people can vote for one candidate or the other and they may also vote for neither. This would keep application spam away, and would help turn out moderators with less bias and more community involvement.
