Sky Poker - Meet the Mods

edited March 2011 in Poker Chat
To help each and every Sky Poker player enjoy the Sky Poker Community, we have enlisted the help of some of our fellow players who have taken on the roles of Community Moderators. Moderation might not be the most enjoyable part of a forum, but to make sure it's always friendly it's something every forum needs. 

Sky Poker is no different. As we hope you know, the role of the Moderator is to ensure the Community Guidelines are followed and the spirit of the place as a whole is friendly, approachable and informative. They are not to be confused with Customer Care, who can be contacted through the details at the bottom of the page.

While we might not always agree or understand the decisions made by the moderators, I hope you all appreciate and respect them. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to drop me a PM.

The current team of Moderators are:

Sky staff
Sky_Dave
Sky_Bernie
Sky_Lee
Sky_Jordan
Sky_Adam

Moderators
Mod_Machka (aka Machka)
Mod_Nosey (aka Noseybonk)
Mod_Solar (aka Solarcarro)
Mod_JockBM (aka JockBMW)
Mod_Kiwini (aka Kiwini4u)

This list will be amended as and when Moderators are added or leave the role.

Enjoy the Community and good luck at the tables.

Sky Dave

    Donkeyplop,

    Good to see you show an interest in becoming a Moderator. As we've just set this up we'll see how it works for a short while before reviewing. :)

    Thanks,
    Dave

    No worries Debs, thanks for taking the time to apologise. The Mods and the Sky staff are all working hard to make this a great place to chill out, have a laugh and learn a bit along the way. We need you guys to support them, not wonder if they're someone else, take digs at them, and so on. 

    Good luck at the tables :)

    In my experience mods / traffic wardens were probably bullied at school, i hope they are not going to suddenly become power mad, on a serious not, the list does not represnt a cross section of the community very well, like where are the ladymods or the idiot mods?

    Tim: "Team Leader don't mean anything mate"
    Gareth: "Excuse me, it means I'm leader of a team"
    Tim: "No it doesn't. It's a title someone's given you to get you to do something they don't want to do for free - it's like making the div kid at school milk monitor. No one respects it"
    Gareth: "Er I think they do"
    Tim: "No they don't Gareth"
    Gareth: "Er yes they do, cos if people were rude to me then I used to give them their milk last... so it was warm."

    No AceBarry...he must be devastated.


    On  a serious note, does this mean pictures will be approved quicker? As some fun threads are useless for 8hrs until they get approved.

    That has to be done by Sky employees as the management console (which includes photo approvals) is only accessible within their network.
