Nah. Little bits at a time Monk. Effendi is not going to make those sort of changes. Just needs to get those vacancies filled so those Sub-Forms get some life back.

It takes a lot of persuasion and proof that the absent moderator has given up and isn't coming back - even though he or she hasn't been seen for years. It's not as simple as just naming the member board and offering a replacement for it.

I don't know how FD deals with it but I notice some boards have co-mods. That seems a simple fix rather than removing the current mod.

A co-mod would be the easiest solution, unless FD has mellowed in the last few years. Some moderators have come back after years of absence.
