[LIST] Forum's admins/ global moderators/ staffs

[Pity Token]

Great list but looks like 1 very important person is missing. Any place for the founder Satoshi?

No longer active but would be good to see the name somewhere

By replying in another thread, I searched around and found some Forum Ex-Staffs as follows. It's interesting to see the author of some famous books like Matering Bitcoin, Mastering Lightning Network, Mastering Ethereum, The Internet of money, namely Andreas Antonopoulos, has an account here. He was a forum moderator too.

Interesting discovery, with me, in early of 2024.

To be honest, I was surprised. This is the first time I learned about this information. I did not know that aantonop seemed to think that the forum was a place for everyone who wanted to learn Bitcoin. I sent him some merit points and hope he comes back. Also, making decisions in the forum has become less rapid than in the past.

Indeed, it's quite interesting to know the person behind those amazing books was once an active user of this forum, and based on one of his last posts, it appears that the reason behind his gradual disappearance was how this forum was constructed:

• Yes, I have an account here, though I find the forum structure cumbersome and have not written here in a long time. Thank you for the support and kind words!

I sent him some merit points and hope he comes back.

Our best bet would probably be Epochtalk ^{[if there'll ever be one]}

Also, making decisions in the forum has become less rapid than in the past.

That's the norm when there's more at stake.

Another moderator has appeared on the forum. This is Igebotz. He became a moderator of the Nigerian section of the forum.

I updated OP with a little bit change in the table format: two columns for Earned merits, Sent merits were removed as now I think they are unnecessary columns.

Thank you for your information on a new forum staff.

Congrats Igebotz too!

The list needs more updates. You can find the latest data by searching by position



Some mods on the list have not signed in since 2023.

Good news.
Nigerian local board showed big increase in activity since it was created and adding new moderator is a great decision.
I would like to see same thing happening for Croatian board before I die or leave the forum, maybe this is just wishful thinking.

[un_rank]

The admin is really taking moderation serious in the forum with the recent change in the Politics and Society board and now a new moderator for the Nigerians on the forum.

This should show those applying for a local board or merit source that theymos checks the data and will act accordingly when he feels the need has arisen for any such change. Congratulations to igehbotz.

Tell us you're 80yrs old without mentioning it - that statement got me rolling on the floor  . theymos silence means thousand words, he sees everything and take actions when due. Your board's turn will come..

Thanks for the flowers but I will still banter your shitty club.

I will take a look at it and update the list after checking.

If it is only like moderators are inactive last 6 months or last one year, but are still staffs, I won't remove them from the list in OP. Probably your post raises an idea for me that, I can consider to add a new column "Status" for Active/ Inactive."

It's not bad idea because today I removed two (unnecessary) columns so I am ready to add one helpful column.

Yes, i believe so too, but waiting for Theymos to act can be really frustrating most times, particularly when the changes are long overdue. Congratulations Igebotz, i am pretty sure you'd make a great moderator for our local section and keep it clean, now that our activity has increased greatly.

I wonder why Mitchell is listed as Ex-Staff in your spreadsheet? He is currently a forum staff member. And by the way, his registration date is also incorrect.

[LoyceV]

I wonder why Mitchell is listed as Ex-Staff

As far as I know, he used to be Moderator for the Dutch board, but not for the last few years. I also noticed he's Staff again (but not a Mod on the Dutch board).

I wonder why MindlessElectron doesn't have a Staff tag, while it has Nuking and deleting privileges.

[Mitchell]

At some point I asked Theymos to hide my Staff position, since I got so many random DMs and was kinda done with that. I've recently asked to have it re-instated.

As far as I know, he used to be Moderator for the Dutch board, but not for the last few years.

Just FYI: I started as a Moderator on the Dutch section, asked (and received) patroller permissions, stopped moderating the Dutch section, moderated Collectibles for a bit, but that got quite heated, so I stopped doing that as well and just been a patroller ever since.

Patroller - aka "tattle tailer".. hahahahaha

Surely, I am not trying to spin anything too negatively.. ..

right?  


right?




rrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiight?

Pretty please sir..  don't "nuke" me (or my account).

Perhaps you may well know how some bitcoiners (true bitcoiners) might be a wee bit suspicious of policing labels, even though potentially and perhaps there could well exist some actual real world justifications for some kinds of "policing"..  

Like the concept of "good" policing versus "not so good" policing.   How are "we" able to determine "which is which" (Animal Farm, if you might know the reference?)^**.

I put him on Ex-Staff list because I knew he revoked his staff role, but from his reply recently, he only asked theymos to hide his staff badge.

And by the way, his registration date is also incorrect

Thank you. I corrected it.

As far as I know, he used to be Moderator for the Dutch board, but not for the last few years. I also noticed he's Staff again (but not a Mod on the Dutch board).

Same as LoyceV knew, and it is reason for Ex-staff information in OP when I made this thread. Honestly I saw Mitchell with Staff badge again recent months, but I forgot about this thread and didn't make an update.
