Neighborhood Moderator???

[Torsten.]

Can somebody please explain what a "Neighborhood Moderator" moderator is?

I (and others too) wonder about topics like this:

http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/HP-BladeSystem-Network-Blades/Upgrade-Firmware-on-1GB-Ethernet-and-4GB-Fiber-Pass-Thrus/m-p/4822937#M85

person A asked something, Person B answered something ... but both not here on this forum.

Can somebody explain these kind of posts? The author did not ...

Torsten,

I have asked several times for explanation of these various titles and the qualifications required to attain them.  Since I've received absolutely nothing in reply, my conclusion is that they must be random and arbitrary.

lol - is ' chuckk281' Chuck Norris?

Or is it spam?

Almost all threads by him ...

Couldn't be Chuck Norris.  This Chuck is way too busy moderating to waste time making films!:smileytongue:

A "Neighborhood Moderator" is someone who is responsible for moderating just a portion of the community (as opposed to a "regular" Moderator, who has those privileges anywhere within the community).

In this case, chuckk281 is the moderator for the Blade area - and taking some question/answer pairs from another source and including them in that forum in case other people find the discussions helpful.

Thanks, Kevin - but are these various titles defined somewhere?

[Torsten.]

Thanks Kevin and Pete.

But I would expect a responsible moderator keep an eye on his own topics and read/answer questions ... agreed?
