We are pleased to announce a brand new approach to running the affairs of the forum.
The approach is to ensure a more streamlined and effective communication strategy. To prevent unnecessary delays in responding to situations/queries/spam etc. The structure is also more inclusive and representative of the broad forum community & its members. Some elements of the communication structure was compared with international forum benchmarks and the appropriate elements were chosen.
Lastly, the strategy combines experience, youth, fresh moderator input and some out of the box thinking - driven by a need to (empower) moderators.
MODERATORS:
Our moderators are the backbone of the forum. We need them to run the forum. The new structure empowers them to make decisions. It is not the role of the administrators to run the forum. It is the job of moderators - this is in line with international social forum standards. Our mods will be the face of the forum & we must give them all our support. The structure enables growth in tasks and responsibilities where mods can become supermods and administrators etc.

SUPER MODERATORS
They will oversee & support groups of moderators to streamline communication and ensure a level of consultation amongst moderators when difficult decisions have to be made. Super moderators will have access to back-office tools in order for them to do their work such as home page management etc. they are also responsible for the other social sites that enhances the presence of the forum such as FB, Twitter, Youtube etc.

GLOBAL MODERATORS:
More and more international members and members from across Africa are joining the forum. A special focus is required that would assist these members and encourage greater participation. We may even develop subforums for Africa/UK/USA etc. We also looking at liaison with other forum communities and car magazines etc.

* Kish
ADMINISTRATION SUPPORT
There will be three groups of admin each providing different support to the moderators and broader forum. Only the Admin - Technical Support will have access to the (full) back-office & forum server. This team will provide technical tools & permissions to the other admin support teams as and when required. The portfolios of the administration support is clearly defined to avoid confusion with the various roles & responsibilities.
ADMIN - TECHNICAL SUPPORT:
* Shikar
* Philip
* Bruce
ADMIN - LEGAL & ADVERTISING SUPPORT:
* Arthur
* Coisman
* Charles
* Prevan
ADMIN - FORUM DEVELOPMENT & EVENTS SUPPORT:
* Arbee
* Andy
* Bugger
Ps. One or two moderators must still confirm their appointments but we are good to run with this structure as from today.
