Important Mod Notice: PLEASE READ!

[muccamukk]

The Cap_Ironman Mod Team, as represented by garrideb, valtyr and myself, would like to announce that we're stepping down as moderators of this community.

We took over moderation of cap_ironman on LJ in June 2010, when the founders pandanoai and axolotl_lan stepped down. In September, we started the DW mirror. Since then, we've enjoyed years of relatively trouble-free modding and challenge running (seriously, you guys are awesome!). We've all made friends, created fanworks, and had a wonderful time in this community, which we all still love. We don't plan to stop participating in this fandom any time soon.

However, other responsibilities being what they are, we've decided to hand over the reins/reign to a group with more time and energy to dedicate to Cap_Ironman.

On that note, we're looking for a few brave souls to volunteer to replace us.

A few thoughts on responsibilities:

• We hope to hand off both the LJ and DW comms at the same time to the same people. If you're thinking of volunteering, you should have an account for both sites.


• This is more than a one-person job, especially if they'd like to continue running challenges. We're hoping two or three people will take over. "Works Well With Others" is key.


• Though it's a pretty trouble free comm, things like tagging and checking headers does take some time out of the day. Please don't over commit.


• Experience modding is nice, but honestly none of us had any when we started. Hello, learning curve!

Last time around, the only people who volunteered agreed to work as a team. This time, we'll either set up a team, or get whoever volunteers to talk it out amongst themselves. If several groups really, really want to take over, we can run a member poll to elect a new team. In any case, the new mod team will be subject to comm approval by either referendum or election.

If you are interested in becoming part of the new mod team, please PM me in the next ten days (so by 29 January).

On a personal note, I'm also trying to hand off maintenance of the Slashy Moments List, including image hosting. If you're interested in that (related or unrelated to modding), please PM me. FOUND!

I have a lot of mod experience on multiple platforms. I'd be willing to deal with problems, challenges and special events if someone could do the more day to day stuff.

Please PM me if you're interested.
