I'm trying to establish some specific requirements. Currently, my idea is that candidates need to have been registered for 1 year, to have posted 300 times, and not to have been blocked for longer than 4 weeks at one time or within the last 3 months.
Volunteers should *not* assume that satisfying the above requirements means they'd automatically be selected. There may not be an "election", but there probably will be at least some sort of opportunity at some point for posters to provide feedback. I think that could be done here or privately, and any feedback that's posted will need to be civil, but still there's clearly the potential for dynamics involving acceptance, rejection, competition, envy, etc.
Any questions? Thanks for working together to keep this community going,
Bob
