Idea
Assistant's

Description
Simple as this. Just members who can take questions, help point new embers into the right direction. Basically everything a mod has to do, without the powers. This way, the mods and especially admins aren't waking up and logging on to see 300 comments piled up ^_^

Where this works
We have this implemented onto our site and it is currently working great! I can actually kick back and enjoy the site for what it is.

Yay...Nay?

Nay. This idea has already been suggested by me, firetail_madness, and skater_kid_who_pwns in the name "mini-mods" and the idea was shot down.

It's either you are a full mod, or a normal member, there is nothing in between.

Good idea but I say nay , my reason being , well the mods are doing things fine , if say things get out of hand and mods can't handle all of this then yes assistants will be useful but else , nope

Yes, the mods are doing a great job already, they are really keeping the site clean!

Little bit confused here.

As the "Assistants" will be "Taking over" the moderators "Jobs" (Hehe loads of quotation marks ^_^), wouldn't they become "Mods" without the Moderators knowing they're "Mods"?

Yes, that is kind of true... and that is why this idea won't work, as Carlie said, you are either a full mod or a normal member...

If I would say Yay or Nay it would have to be Yay because it sounds like a pretty good idea to me being a mod seems like alot of hard work anyway.

That sounds pretty cool to me.

I think that'll help the Mods a tremendous amount

This is completely useless. You can complain that they don't change anything but you need to think up good ideas instead of taking ideas that were utterly rejected and change one little thing in them, then saying it's a new idea and that everything is rejected. Be original and maybe you will see something happen.
