here's a clue: it isn't outsiders that "make posting in nyta a negative experience."
also, compared to other, modded sections, nyta runs perfectly fine. |

Aside from that recent fiasco with the Marak5 whoring thread, I don't really think that NYTA needs a moderator. I think anyone who is a member of the community and who isn't coming from outside like Marak5 was understand when an argument will pop up, and how to deal with it. I think part of the problem was that Marak5 made some posts that offended the sensibilities of certain NYTAs, and they took it out on him in a childish, angry way... but that doesn't mean that we need extra oversight on our forum.
The real question, I think, is what would such a moderator do? The reason why I state this is that objectivity is a very difficult thing to achieve, and I'm not even sure if such a thing is in a moderator's job description. So, would he close angry threads that contain flame wars? Would he close any 'Tiesto Sucks' or 'JP Sucks' threads --- those are damn popular on the NYTA board. Would he close threads that seem to be unneccessary? The conclusion that I draw from these questions is that I think that the closure of such threads will cause more harm than good by simply a) redirecting the anger of the arguing parties toward the moderator b) making it seem like the moderator supports the 'tiesto sucks' threads that he leaves open and opposes the ones that he closes c) leave the option that some of the threads that he deemed 'unneccessary', actuall turn out to be interesting for all involved.
That's just what I think, and I don't believe that one fierce argument regarding Marak5 should change what I see as a smoothly operating forum. |

true, but nice for someone to take care of things instead of PMing other mods to actually mod the forums |

i vote kidnyce (brian chin) for nyta mods.
mr.chin is sociable, responsible and is an active member of the ny trance scene, promoting shows such as TSFT.
it seems ian (redeye) is really busy these days so maybe it's a good time for someone else to take the responsibility.
it just seems really weird for a community as large as NYTA to be unregulated for such a long time... that you have recent threads like the Marka trolling, become so big. With an inactive mod, you have losers like him and others to become s, and make posting in NYTA section a negative experience. |
At first glance Brian would be a great candidate, but after thinking more about this I feel that it would be a conflict of interest. With Brian being one of the main men behind Tfst, one may be under the presumption that he (Brian) would give preferential treatment to his own peoples (tfst). Our new mod should have no vested interest in any certain club and or promotional group. From what I have observed, Lunasea would be the best choice.

a bit backwards thinking don't you think? shouldn't ties with clubs or promotional groups only make the candidate's resume stronger? if he is primarily a club promoter (bradleyrose) then it can get annoying quick. and it's not like brian is whoring tfst all the time. he has alot of other strong qualities that boost his candidacy. his thoughts and participation on the boards are much appreciated.

Thanks Pork!!!
Keepingitreal - You are misinformed, I'm no longer a "main man" behind TFST, I support them but I have no working affiliation with TFST. They are my friends, I hang out with them and I offer my service as they need. I do not play any role in organizing events or coordinating publicity for them. DJ Tek does it well himself as well as the rest of the TFST.NYC Krew, they hold their own.
And if you continue reading the thread located in NYTA, there is vested interest outside of the party scene to elaborate on what the true new york environment is about. Read the thread and you'll find a surplus of knowledge being promoted outside of the music scene. We are normal people too, not all of us are strictly clubheads. Some with careers, others with hobbies, a message board is a medium of communication, a community in which we've established an identity, I think we could make it more thats all =) |
