Driving over the speed limit does not make you a criminal, Shawn. It's the people who invented the speed limits that are the criminals here.

Welcome aboard! :)

Hi there! Welcome to Administrata. :)

You asked if we had something coming up a few days ago. Well here it is. 😃

Yeah, it's quite annoying. It's not a big deal really, but it's annoying to me. 🙃 [ATTACH type=full" size="1626x658]451[/ATTACH]

Looks great. Very lightweight. The only thing I hate is that it translates automatically half of the functionality. So I see a part in Dutch and the content in English. That's the only thing that disturbs me.

No, there isn’t a link available. Just a simple mention would be enough. :)

Every community leader wants an active community where members are constantly engaging. But let’s face it - controversial topics often get people talking faster than anything else. Think about it’s heated debates, polarizing opinions, or sensitive subjects, these discussions seem to spark more interaction than everyday chatter. We'll take it to the test: [TABLE width=100%] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]Normal question[/td][td width=50.0000%]Controversial question[/td] [/TR] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]How do you encourage shy members to participate more in discussions?[/td][td width=50.0000%]Are lurkers ruining your community?[/td] [/TR] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]What’s the best way to enforce community rules fairly?[/td][td width=50.0000%]Are community rules killing creativity and engagement?[/td] [/TR] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]How do you grow your community while keeping it active and engaged?[/td][td width=50.0000%]Is prioritizing growth over quality a mistake?[/td] [/TR] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]How do you keep members coming back to your community?[/td][td width=50.0000%]Are giveaways and rewards cheapening real engagement?[/td] [/TR] [TR] [td width=50.0000%]Are controversial topics a key to engagement?[/td][td width=50.0000%]Are controversial topics exploiting your community for engagement?[/td] [/TR] [/TABLE] Do you see the difference in the tone and how you'd respond to these questions, while they have the same topic? Some thoughts: Do controversial topics create meaningful engagement, or do they just fuel drama? Can encouraging these discussions strengthen your community, or does it risk dividing members? How do you balance open debate with maintaining a welcoming, respectful environment? Should leaders allow all types of controversy, or are there some topics that should always stay off-limits? What do you think?

Identifying potential moderators for your community is an important step in building a strong and supportive team. Behind a great forum is a .... indeed - great staff team. Thus, a great moderator isn’t just someone who follows the rules - they’re someone who actively contributes to the positive culture of your space, without the need to ask. But knowing who’s ready for that responsibility can be a challenge thing. So perhaps we could all gather some insights how to identify such great asset to your team. Consider these questions: What behaviors do you look for when deciding if someone would make a good moderator? How do you determine if a member is ready to take on leadership responsibilities? Do you think it’s better to approach potential moderators or let them volunteer themselves? Why? What role does a member’s personality and communication style play in your decision-making? Choosing the right moderators can have a huge impact on your community’s success. So let’s talk about how you approach finding those key people and what qualities you think make someone stand out for the role.

Welcome aboard Phillip! :)

Valid point is my middle name. Not but seriously though, v5 removed the ability to have hooks, which made plugins more easy to develop as far as I know. It seems they want to get rid of the ability to customize altogether as time goes.
