    Interesting. I guess the reasoning is to try and reduce scams on DP. Why not a moderator for all of the BST sections though?

    Shawn, I must say this is a great community you have here, congrats to the chosen few. Just like to see communities like this where they keep a staff count to a min. and still nice and clean :D

    Thats great news, If my suggestion counts then i think there should be a separate 100% dedicated Moderator for BST section excluding site. It would be great to have a moderator who can actually "Step into" transaction details and verfiy everything that seems fishy. I know its not easy but i am sure you will be able to find couple of people who can volunteer to do that. I am sorry to say but lately there have been lot of scams going on @ DP and Shawn dont think that it doesnt matter or it is not a matter of DP. It really effect the creditability of the forums. :)
    I hope my suggestion will be considered, and you know what? its not a big deal to have more moderators if need be and i think we really need it.

    Shawn what are the criterias of becoming a MOD?.I personally feel that it is high time to make atleast one Mod from india.They are many good indian webmasters here , companys like microsoft,google hase lot of indians in top positions why not in DP?.Only reginal Mod will be good to manage this group because he can think like typical indian guy.

    DaveN and GFC I can understand.

    I know I am not entitled to ask this, but why was Rubeina selected for the moderator position?

    Also, are these moderators paid anything?

    Congrats to GuyFromChicago, DaveN and to lovely rubeina. :)
    IMO Rubeina deserves to be a mod because she's been very nice to DP members and been here for a long time. And I'm sure she will be a good moderator for the forum. ;)

    Who the fook are you guys to question who's a mod and who's not.

    Don't get jealous. It's not up to us who's mod so don't cry

    and I bet you don't ask ur boss how much he gets paid

    so don't ask...
