There is a practice thread in the Business Room: Lali Plays Around with Forum Management. New rangers, feel free to play around with it and with this one as well.

You can experiment on detail_oriented and aagragaah, too. They are tied to the b77 email accounts (gmail and yahoo, respectively), so don't ban them forever or anything like that! (If that's a problem, Alatar or Jude, please let us know!)

Sometimes members will start a conversation that doesn't belong in a certain thread. In that case, Rangers should consider splitting the thread. It's not hard to do, but it's nice to practice first before accidentally messing something up. Thankfully, with the new board, we can splice that thread back together again if needed.

The most work you'll have as a Ranger is adding and deleting ranks. That is also nice and easy on the new board.

Occasionally, you'll have to deal with some kind of brouhaha. It's no fun, but it does keep you occupied!

Then there are various tasks--adding new Rangers, derangering the old Rangers (Jude thinks that term is funny, but those of us who don't speak French aren't sure why), answering technical questions here and there, moving topics to another forum, updating info threads, etc.

Editing test...

Derangered sounds an awful lot like deranged, don't you think?
