Sooooo, it apparently does seem smart to have a mod so they can remove spam or personal info if need be. JennyBee has indicated that she's fine with remaining mod, but is fine with a co-mod or another mod as well.
That means we should probably elect someone.
Hence, the poll.
If you vote for anyone else than JennyBee, please nominate yourself or someone else. If the result is that we want someone in addition to/instead of JennyBee, I suggest we'll see if the nominated people are willing and able and have an election between them.

I agree with Valerie. I am happy Jenny is around but since it seems IN nesties travel more, it would be a great idea to have somebody else around when she is away on vacay.
If people are wanting a second mod, then I think ukyankee would be great. I think she was an excellent mod before but I don't know if she'd want to do it again.
Kelly volunteered in another thread, that's a different time zone. And I think having a few would be better - between the time zones and all the travelling we're lucky enough to do, the more the better.

I'm only on US time until September - then I'm back to GMT+1. I agree that having a few different time zones and a few moderators would be a good idea with all of the traveling and posting at varying hours that goes on on this board. I wouldn't mind being a mod but definitely would not want to be the only one, and I think it's also a good idea if there are a few (for traveling / time zone purposes). If we decide two is enough, then it wouldn't make sense for me to be one in addition to Jennybee since we're only 2 hours apart (or will be again in Sept). We should pick someone in Western Asia / Australia or the US, as others have suggested.
I don't think there's anyone on this board I would object to being a mod, so I'm ok with whoever wants to do it.

If I recap what's said and voted here: Everyone wants Jenny to remain mod. So that's settled. Jenny herself let us know she'd like a co-mod. So I guess that's a no-brainer too, right?
Crimsonandclover is willing and able, but close to JennyBee in time DorothyinAus is willing and obviously in Australian time zone Riversong (formarly pseudo) is in the US and is willing as well.
I propose we vote JennyBee, DorothyinAus and RiverSong into office and appoint Crimsonandclover as a vice-mod, in case someone decides they've had enough of being a mod.
Do we need to put a poll in for that?
(And to appease the 2 votes, would one of you be willing to change their name to Band_Geek? (or should you 3 set up a mod-account together which you have login info for and call that account Band Geek. Yes, I am trying to please everyone here, if I can.)
I agree that setting up a mod account sounds like a good plan. In addition to those listed above, I'd suggest that Meggers or Kelly take a mod role.
I like the idea of a mod account, that way nobody knows which one it is that's doing the "dirty work" if it's called for and we don't have a reenactment of what happened to one of our past mods.

Sounds like a great idea. I'm fine with being vice-mod, mod, nothing, whatever.
And, um, what happened to one of the past mods? That was before my time.
