							| A question about the new rule: moderators must have 10000 points 
 |  
							| I agree with Victor that moderators must have more than 1000 points. But I have a bit of a problem with the new rule: 10000 points.  I had a look at different countries, some haven �t reached that number yet. It means that members from some countries can �t act as moderators. I just wonder if it �s fair.    I don �t have a clear suggestion (I �m not good at numbers ) but maybe it should be more proportional?   Let �s say, if the first member of the country has 5000 points, then he/she could have the right to be a moderator? Is it possible, Victor, or will it be too complicated?   I �d like to hear your opinions! Have a nice day,Aimee |  18 Feb 2010

							| Victor was talking about it in that topic about the new rules. He suggested 5000 points is enough to be a moderator. |  18 Feb 2010

							| Wow, thanks, Linda! I didn �t see that... Too many events over the last few days... So 5000 points is enough! Great!!!   Have a great day,  Love, Aimee |  18 Feb 2010

							| I like aimee �s suggestion - if there is no one in a certain country that  has enough points - then let the one with highest number of points represent that country.   It would also make the work easier for the moderators because they would know of sites that teachers from their country use.       What do you think?   Hugs  Barbara   |  18 Feb 2010

							| I don �t think this should be about countries. Are we going to make Jianana Biancomotu (nick JianB) from the Central African Republic a moderator because he �s got 3 points and he �s the only one from that country?  
 This shouldn�t be about nationalities as there is no way to check those. BTW, I am not Chinese.   |  18 Feb 2010

							| I �d say between 3000 and 5000 is a sufficient number to become a moderator. |  18 Feb 2010

							| Hi, 
 Perhaps, Victor should choose the moderators. Someone suggested this yesterday, but I �m sorry that I can �t remember whom.

							| Philip has the point. I �m Russian but i live in Bahrain, so which country do i represent? And what keeps me from saying that i �m from Central African Republic to become a moderator? |  18 Feb 2010
