A new moderator for German board is detected. It seems this moderator has given that role very recently. Merit statistics are taken from last Friday data dump from theymos, on 2020w2, 17jan2020 02:33:31 (GMT time)

See this post and earlier/later posts in that topic.

good catch tranthidung
as LoyceV already found out, the topic was very present in the german area from mid december on.
we also had a poll which should help with the decision.
at the beginning of january it ended and 2 weeks later (end of last week) the decision was made.
i am happy to be the new member of the team and i will do my best to support the forum as good as i can!

Not really sure about what happened and the exact dates, but franckuestein is no longer a part os the staff (inactivity IIRC). Welsh has taken over the Spanish moderation ever since

[logfiles]

It Looks like phantastisch is also no longer part of staff. mole0815 was then introduced as a new mod as a result of his inactivity.  He was last active in September 08, 2019, 07:47:31 AM, so he should be off the list.

MiningBuddy has been inactive and not been a mod for a very long time now but I wonder why he is still indicated as Moderator of Beginners & Help Board

That's not the only case in which an inactive user is shown as a moderator.
GazetaBitcoin made a topic about this a few days ago. (You can visit the link below.)

Suggestion to update the obsolete moderators from various boards / child boards.

[notocactus]

Just to inform you first!
frodocooper nolonger a mod, what could have happened?

• Profile link: frodocooper
• I will keep you update and will update OP as well.

@franckuestein hasn’t been a mod for over a year now. He was the mod on the local Spanish board, but due to inactivity, @Welsh kindly stepped in to act as the local mod on that board. I see @Csmiami pointed it out previously on this thread.

[Pmalek]

phantastisch can also be safely removed from the list of staff members. It was mentioned previously in the thread that another user has taken over moderation of the German local board. Also, phantastisch hasn't been active on Bitcointalk since September 08, 2019.

[notocactus]

It is my appreciation with your help. I spend a few minutes to update OP with the section for Ex-staffs and Reference links.

[notocactus]

It's time to bump this thread with an updating information about one of our staffs.

Xal0lex was assigned additional task to moderate threads in Other languages.

He informed me about it today.

Right, I can see his name there. With the re-opening of Vietnamese after being blocked for spam, I hope that the Vietnamese language becomes more active now.

While some local board still do not have their own moderator other than the global moderator assigned there. It might be good to get some new names there to moderate their respective local board sections, such as India, Nigeria, Nederlands and other active local board. Definitely this will reduce the workload of global moderators in my opinion.

That's an excellent opinion you just gave @ Blackstar, and it will be a great pleasure seeing that put into fruition anytime soon, as that will definitely lift a certain amount of workload from our respective global moderators.

Wow!!! 100% supported. Frankly speaking we are in dire need of a moderators, and also Merit Sources in the Nigeria Local Board. Thanks you very for bringing up this notice in this thread, we have been agitating on this matter in the local way though we have not broadcast it in the general or the public boards. Therefore i, on behalf of other meaningful Nigerian in the forum to ask Cyrus and theymos and other reputable personalities from the Global Arena to look into the request of moderators and Merit Sources in the local board. Once again thank you.

What could be the reason that a staff would be dropped by theymos after being appointed? Could it be related to wrongly handling cases or intimidation of ordinary members?

Op, nice to see this thread. It will be nice you remove the rows for earned and sent merits because it is not being updated by you. I also think that the merit information is not actually necessary. Maybe when the post was made, merit system was newly introduced.

There could be various reasons, and everyone's issue might be different. Some may be stepping off at their own request due to personal matters. Of course, no one here to explain unless theymos or the Ex-Mods want to explain why they were dropped from the position. It's possible that they were not active enough, so the admin has to remove them. There are still some Mods who have been offline for over a month still they are Mod. So, I guess it's not a big issue.

Wangbus has been inactive for a year and still holds the position. So, it's understandable that theymos doesn't remove someone without talking to them. @tranthidung, It seems mitzie is not a staff anymore. Also, He is inactive for the last five months. Can you please confirm if he is still a Mod? You may want to update the list as well.

No, mitzie is not a moderator at this time. By the way, any user can check the list of moderators at any time. It is enough to go to the memeber search page, enter "staff" in the box and select the "Search by position" option. As a result you will get a list of all moderators. You can find all administrators in the same way by typing "administrator" in the box.

@tranthidung: Cryptios needs an update too:

Official confirmation: alanst is not a member of Cryptios anymore.

It is how I found staffs, admins, VIP members and Donators when I made my threads.

Thank you Loyce. I knew about that announcement from Cyrus but forgot to update this thread. On it now.

Mostly is because of inactivity or abandon the forum. It can be from other personal reasons like Dabs.

Forum staffs were chosen very carefully and very less likely they will turn to be scammers. I recall that one forum staff was removed because of scam (it is very far in the past).

With the re-opening of Vietnamese after being blocked for spam, I hope that the Vietnamese language becomes more active now.

I put my time to request unlocking that local thread but sadly local members did not contribute good things there. Only a representative of BitcoinVietnam looks good and I am very doubtful that Vietnamese guys will be actively in that thread. They are very early Bitcoin adopters in Vietnam.
