Alatar suggested mediation might be necessary in this thread. I'm kind of caught up in it already but I don't see how I can be of any use since I think the whole argument is bollocks.

Can anyone help?

SF hasn't even shown up yet by the way, so I don't know which way it will all turn when (if) he does.

I will stick around even if someone takes this, of course...I just don't see myself making much progress on my lonesome.

I have posted in both of the Bike Racks threads and I am attempting to steer them back on course. I can monitor the thread for a bit. If it appears that a mediator is needed after tonight then we can pull straws out of a hat. :P

Thanks, Holby. I am useless at this people stuff. Can I just stick to deleting double posts and moving threads? :P

I have already mentioned this to Holby in a PM, but I thought it would be a good idea to point it out here as well. The Charter states, in Article 5, paragraph 1, subsection 6:
Quote:
6) If members are having difficulty resolving their dispute they may ask for a Mediator. There should be no more than one mediator, agreed upon by the discussants, and chosen from among those jury pool members who have indicated their willingness to serve in this capacity. Service as a mediator in a particular dispute is voluntary.
(Italics and bolding mine)

I have not had a chance to look at the new threads in the Bike Racks, but it seems that the responsibility for dealing with these issues is not a function of the Rangers. My assumption is that the Mayor would be responsible for assigning mediators, if the thread participants ask for it, although I am not sure about that.

In any case, I do not want to see my fellow Rangers get burned out from trying to resolve every issue that comes up here. That is not our purpose. It’s a member moderated board, so everyone is responsible for moderating, not just the Rangers.

I've also understood that, a Ranger should not act as a mediator. So, if a mediator is needed, the request should probably be forwarded to the Mayor.

And, welcome back, tinwë. :)

Well, I've gotten a PM from a poster letting me know they are prepared to ask for a hearing to be called to(quote)look at their trolling behavior in the Symposium.(unquote) Just letting you guys know this might and probably will happen soon.

:neutral:

(on the side- I would have mentioned the poster's name and all... but I'm not entirely sure whether I should, seeing as this is an open forum and they don't seem to have said they will ask for a hearing anywhere else in public. I bet they wouldn't mind being identified but...uh...just erring on the side of caution here for the moment.)

Erring on the side of caution is a good thing in this case Ro.

Am I a bad person for relishing the fact that my term ends in less than two weeks? :D
