Can we please have some moderators for this forum? One would be enough. It would improve the quality of the forum so much.

There are moderators. What gets moderated doesn't always mesh with what some members want. Some want more, some want less grin.png

I offer myself to be moderator. Waiting for someone contact me in order to talk about my salary. 2000 dollars a month would be ok.

Well they could have easily fooled me. There are obvious things to do as a moderator and nobody's doing it.

There are moderation guidelines and it's very possible that what you think needs moderated doesn't fit the guidelines. It's also possible no moderators have seen it.

 

If you see something that breaks the TOS and isn't handled, you can open a ticket.

Now that would be nice, or anything for that matter. Unless a forum moderator is staff, they probably aren't getting paid.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Children of all ages! Just another lovely day in Ye Olde Chess.com forums. 

My day is now complete. Someone needed to create another  topica how us deviants aren't living up to their expectations.

I do think moderators, even if not staff, should be paid. One of the reasons I pay for a premium membership, despite the availability of so many free YouTube videos, is that the instructors making videos, and other staff, should be rewarded for the value they add. I guess if you don't get Premium, the ads make revenue to compensate staff. I don't understand how a free membership is enough compensation.

This place needs better advertisers if there's people working for free. Soft drinks and energy drinks make great partnerships.

I don't know about ads. I'd be fine with them myself (to a certain extent), but I'm guessing a lot of people wouldn't.

I wouldn't mind a sponsor banner as long as it doesn't flash or scroll. I would also prefer it not to be on screen while I'm playing. Other than that if it gets people paid and improves the site, I'm down.
