The forum is getting flooded by multiple threads.
Inappropriate language.
Wrong threads in wrong sections.
Etc etc etc.
Glu forum admins.
Pick players/acc that are frequently on forum to help you share the load.
Pick players/acc that have constantly been courteous towards other players problems. (So that eliminates me.)
Make them able to ban/give warnings to other forums users, close threads.
Give group messages to to player admins about what is expected from them and what is happening in game for them to share around.
Seen this on other forums and it works wonders for cleaning up these sort of problems.

The last clean up happened around 11am on Sunday and it was within just a few hours that the forums flooded with one user. It's only been 24 hours since then, and things should be looking like normal again.
As for your criteria above, we are always on the lookout for those players who could be moderators, however there aren't any that have stood out in that capacity from within the EW3 community as of yet. If there are recommendations for forum members who could be moderators, we are certainly willing to watch activity and see how things progress.
Either way, I agree with Demonic. But I'm first on list that you can eliminate.
Community moderators do not work for Glu, but have to adhere to forum rules (including banning players who don't adhere to forum rules). So yes, we are aware that you wouldn't qualify, Ultra.
I take pride in stating the obvious.:)
But EternityWarrior looks like he could be a great admin
I mean, if an Admin and i disagree on something, then can he just find some excuse to ban me? that's not fair.
- A clean history of no flaming, trolling, Glu-bashing, etc.
- Supportive of other players, helpful and patient with new folks
- Been a member for over a month and has over 50 posts
- Will be able to be impartial (no Guild cronyism)
- Will uphold and act on all forum rules (http://ggnbb.glu.com/showthread.php?110-Glu-Forum-Rules)
Remember- with great power comes great responsibility.

Well yeah, now you see why this doesn't exist yet.
No doubt there's gonna be like that one douche who's gonna abuse his power though. I hope that they pick wisely.
Yeah, problem is, you can never truly judge someone over the internet. You have to take your chances and hope that they are what they seem.
Lol, 500 posts only on this EW3 forums. I am addicted:)
Nominate: Superstargum
He's been pretty active and helpful towards other players problems
Thats understandable, the community is pretty poor minded people to be honest.
Ill keep a eye out for any reasonable people, that do what you suggested.
Did I bash ya once today? Yes
But we needed you to communicate with us, you were not communicating
Regardless this is a position Ive held many times in other games and I would like everyone's consideration
Thank you
We communicate with you every day, and accusing us of anything other than that isn't going to get anyone very far. The fact is that it hadn't even been 24 hours since the flare-up regarding the tournament and we were able to get you a response. "Bashing" us did not make us work faster.
Everyone needs to understand that it requires time (across multiple international teams and time zones) to find out the reason behind an issue and be able provide a response with more than "we are looking into it."
"Patience" is another important criteria for a community moderator.
Thank you for your consideration for this position. However, as a member of this fine community, I regret to inform you that I would not be able to endorse you at this time. Please feel free to continue seeking other opportunities.
I'm not going to argue with you about it. We are not on 24 hours a day and the response came within 24 hours. If you have questions about what to expect with regards to responses in the forums, please refer to this announcement here: http://ggnbb.glu.com/announcement.php?f=15
Please move on from this, Saabot, and let's get the thread back on topic.
I have a question tho, we just received our prizes for last tourney (thankyou)
Is there a way to transfer anything to another character?
I want to start my mage soon and I have two pets now and lots of wings, do these things work on all characters?
I've only ever played my warrior so far
Prizes come in the mail. When you get the mail, you can switch characters. Then accept the mail on that character, and bingo! You get the prize for that character. If you have already accepted the prizes for warrior, you're kind of screwed.
So there is a way then cool
Already accepted but at least now I know for next time
Thank you
You're Welcome:)
So this is the way to make people respond with civility.
You don't nominate yourself first of all >.>
And yeah it helps people behave, seen it work on other forums, though it wont have much effect with the amount of hackers at the moment.
And saabot, you gotta have a clean history. Very few players have that.
Also gluadmin, thank you for cracking down on the threads.
We have some really funny people on this forum :L .
But yes some very good candidates for admin would be jonwayne, christot and eternitywarrior. All ew2 regulars as well and the first few to complete ew3 when it came out, contributing much to the forum community with relevant and extremely helpful posts and threads.
also would be good to have admins from each device os (android, ios, mac, kindle users.)
Usually, the more replies you have, the more active you are on forums. I'm on all the time, and even do this when im at school if i don't get caught. Of course, since my history is a train wreck, i can't become an admin, but it's people who are as active as me they want to look for.
