More moderators for Hosted Mods?

I browse through the RTW Hosted Mods anyway to see how they're going, so I'd be happy to take this on if the admins felt there was a need.

I can manage the CTW sub-forum, but I don't have the time for anything else. Anyway CTW hasn't gotten any bad behavior so far.

Why not just give the mod leader the power to delete, edit in their own forum.

They already have, but there are still cases where moderation wasn't done. The Org moderators are picked for being good at keeping the peace. Mod leaders are primarily good at modding.

I'm afraid DJ was suggesting that the existing modding moderators should take more of an interest. Not that we need a new moderator solely for the purpose. As has been mentioned, most mod teams take care of their own housekeeping (stickying etc.) so a moderator would just be there to help out barocca in case things got out of hand.

No, I think that one or two exisiting moderator(s) should more actively try to keep the peace at the Hosted Mods section. Of course modders have benefit when their modforum is friendly and enjoyable, but I have seen some modders flame a Org member, who critized a part of the mod. Modders are members of the Org and they need to follow the rules and creating things for free doesn't give you any freedom for insulting or flaming. And that danger exists when mod forums are almost exclusively moderated by the modders themselves.

Of course the modders should take more interest as they probably read all the interests. For example this post: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showp...3&postcount=25
I would have immediately deleted the whole post if it were posted in the Sengoku Jidai forum, but the EB modders apparently think more freely.
