If that's the case, and some are to be believed, shouldn't the job title be changed to 'modr8r'?
I do agree that there is a need for more mods on here, and if i could spare the time i would gladly put my name in. I feel that a lot of those who are putting their names in the frame would do a great job of modding, under 18's included.

Pick me though
I for one can not see what difference a person's age makes to how well they can moderate, I know people under the age of 17 that can spell and write a lot better than some people over that age and anyway a bit of youth would surely be good for the UKAR team.
Like the 'pick me though', I was thinking of doing something a bit similar but you beat me to it. You can also pick me if you like
If they've got a sharp mind they could probably deduce that using a spell-checker will ensure their posts are intelligible and as such any medical issues wouldn't be a problem. We don't require Oxford English graduates, just people that can put there thoughts down in a clear manner. Doesn't matter how smart they may be if they can't communicate it. Harsh? Yes, but also the truth.
Do you not have a spell checker.I could not resist.
But i see your point.
Let us hope you get a good team in place,just like FC.And we can work together instead of at loggerheads.I am sure you agree.No more gunfights at the OK Coral.

Firefox has an excellent plug-in that highlights spelling errors as you type your post, giving you a drop down list of corrections at the simple click of a right mouse button ... in fact it is just like the one found in Word.

There's no reason why UKAR and FC can't get on famously - would be fun to arrange something to bring the two together at one of the shows maybe?
Might be missing something here, but I'd always thought that a lot of UKAR members are also posters on FC and other similar forums too, I am.
Edited to add that I too would love to be involved in moderating, but unfortunately I'm not on the forum that often nowadays so that would rule me out.
I have only just seen this put me down please if i am not to late thanks spend enough time on here browsing so i may as well do some good try to put some thing back
