What is the solution ?

Yes abid, now you,gulshan,meean are the regular active and experienced members of boddunan. Hope you three will be continuing with boddunan. So two from you can take this and do.

You have raised very valid issue Abid!
Some more persons should be appointed for this task.

My suggestion is There must be backup. If any one is absent, other can continue it. It will not affect the regular activities of the website.

Yes it is true and known fact that some contest are not properly conducted...even the weblinks are delay sometimes..
Till now the member of week award of last week is not decided or announced.

However as said by kumaresh there should be some backup after the main memeber is missing..so that people do not have to wait long..

I think the names suggested by sajeetharan is good as they are seniors with experience..if they dont have any problem to take the task..Sajeetharan can also manage as he is quiet active member and always leading the member board..

Thanks Sajeetharan for your appreciation. I am ready to take GD provided it ends on a day other than Saturday to Monday.I may be offline on most of those days!

Thats good abid. You are the correct person for GD. Lets wait for maverick's suggestion too. i think members would accept this suggestion

Instead of one person, a panel of senior members should be drawn to fill the gap. The panel members will generally not be performing duty of moderator but they should be available when the moderator seeks leave. The moderator will send a PM to the next member in the panel to take over the job temporarily. But such contingencies must be very rare. When some one agrees to be moderator or editor, he/she must assume responsibility for smooth functioning of the site.

Nice idea gulshan,

i welcome this. So that there will not be a confusion among members here And decision will be also genuine.

Yes it is nice idea and hope maverick also agree to this concept..so that delay will be soon resolved. :)

Hi Friends,
A serious issue is being discussed and we can resolve it.

Let me take a decision on this.
Lets make Three member committee for Group Discussion, Daily Forum Activator and the up-coming contest.

Kindly post your 3 members list that you want to see in this panel.

Hope to get positive response from the suggested members.

I do agree with Gulshan and Atul. Let it be more transparent and stable.

Thanks Abid for your pro-activeness. Let all of us decide the best outcome so that no delays happen in future.

Thats true. There is a very long gap.
Aastha has asked me to take over DFAA for one week. But as she is having some inconvenience at her side, she is not able to handle this task daily.

As I am on vacation, it is not possible for me to handle this for the month of August. I would be back to HYD at the end of this month.
Sorry for inconvenience caused... :(

Some very nice suggestions are given by Gulshan, Abid and Atul. It is a necessity that there be a back up for every role on the forums to avoid just the current scenario.

I am willing to help out with the same!

My vote for 3 members in the panel are

1.Abid
2.Gulshan
3.Kalyani

These three members are visiting boddunan and doing a wonderful contribution on forums.

Yes, a shared responsibility is better than individual shoulders.But the leaving member should inform it earlier.I may be participating in the GD started and one morning if I am asked to take its moderation due to other members inconvenience it may not be possible.

Yes, I agree with Abid's point of view totally!

Also, require one clarification regarding GD moderator, the moderator is not allowed to participate in GDs. will the same apply to the per'son who is designated as the back up for GD too?

That's correct. There should be a common communication channel and understanding between the panel members. I can help you with whatever the suggestion you give.

Well Friends,
Post your 3 member panel who are eligible for collectively taking decision for current contest like GD.

Kalyani has shown her interest to join the Lead Panel.

Yes, the rules remains the same. The contest moderator and Lead Panel members are not eligible for winning the contest, they can participate.

Post your valuable comments/suggestions.

-Atul B

Now kalyani would refuse to take up this position. If the moderators cant participate then there should be some rewards for them.

Now we all had a solution.

From tomorrow onwards Aastha will will be back..,no need to worry.

If result should be automatic by using some criteria than there no need to make committee for daily forum activator award.
