Well, about that-- On the last forum, the members were moderated by the group leaders. I didn't do that on this forum. I was going to, and certainly can, and I don't know why I didn't, but... I just didn't. Hmmm, maybe I should....
Anyway, sorry for taking so long! Managing the forum can be stressful at times. I had forgotten about this thread! Haha, to tell the truth, when I got those first two PMs, I wanted to wait a bit and see how many posts it would take before it started to get annoying!
But I probably wouldn't have waited too long. I couldn't do it until now anyway, been busy and whatnot.Okay, here's the scoop. When I make a group, I have to do a lot of stuff: Create the group itself, set leaders, create a forum, set permissions for specific forums (like keeping non-mods out of the mod forums while letting group members see this forum--there are several permissions to set), make sure the leaders are up to speed and can see the Group Trooper forum, and finally go to Photoshop and create a shiny new group image. I'm gonna make a glassy button, as usual, but you can have me change it any time. Just send me the replacement image and make sure it's not too much bigger than the glassy image. That "Dorothy Fan" thing in Kurtz's sig is an okay height, just make it a bit less wide. If it's too wide it'll stretch the part of the postbit (each post) where the avatar and stuff is, making less of the post itself visible.
I'm gonna make the group right now. You can join, but do not post in the forum until ten minutes or so after it's set up. I'll still have to do the permissions, making it RA-exclusive!
Now for the leaders: There really isn't a setting for "sub-leaders." Anyone I put as a leader is simply a leader. That means if I put both Calibremon and Mars in charge, the group will just have two leaders.
Have fun!
Edit: Group's made! Go ahead and post!
