The name "higher stakes" is really good.

One thing I like about the current situation is that there are no hard and fast rules about what limits go where being pushed down from above. Instead, the bounds of each forum are really decided by what the community thinks is appopriate and is interested in discussing. No matter what initial guidelinse we give for what limits belong in what forums when/ if forums are created, I hope it continues to be the case that the roles of the forums are allowed to evolve naturally and we don't bind ourself into "20/40 can only go here because the sticky says so".

i agree about how nice 'self-policing' aspects can be when they're actually working, but people really do pay strict attention to posted numbers. somebody whines about a guy's newbie 30/60 post, and he says, 'but the small stakes forum description says 2/4 to 15/30!' i'm talking about the ones you see when you go to the forum list, not stickied ones. there are some definitions in those.

i think if it were as simple as 'mid stakes holdem: intermediate discussion' and 'higher stakes holdem: advanced concepts' or something like that it could work, but the phrasing would have to be done really well and there would still probably be some heavy lifting involved in terms of moderation (and the hurt feelings and bitching that goes along with it).

Thanks for the endorsement to mod SHUSH, LUSH, SSSH, or whatever we end up calling it. I should probably go looking for a partner in crime. I have a couple ideas from the Micro forum. I'll talk to them and see what they think. Do you have any 3/6 or 5/10 players who'd be good nominations from HUSH?

Good post Mr Wookie.

Between posts in the HUSH split thread and PMs i've received the consensus is that those who have heard of you are in favor of having you as a SHUSH mod. Those who haven't are in favor of having a current HUSH regular be your partner in crime. One PM politely asked that we find a HUSH regular to work with you to moderate SHUSH, saying that it would be good for the atmosphere of the forum, and I agree.

A number of HUSHers have stepped forward to offer Moderation services. Josh. would be best for MHUSH or Mid-stakes limit. Krishan would be an excellent SHUSH mod but he plays 10/20+, so he might not be interested. While Schneids wants to be a mod I think he'd be much better suited for the hopefully pending HU forum. DMBFan23 would be a good SHUSH mod b/c he's between 5/10 and 10/20 and would post in both. I'll have to do a bit of thinking and check around the HUSH forum.

I'm in one of those tired moods where I mistakenly delete entire threads. Please, someone make the complete list to give to chuck. Moderators of the new forums should be discussed in a different thread once we have the new forums.

Gracias again to everyone.

Mat

It looks like we've settled on:


"HUSH becomes:
-Mid-High Shorthanded (MHSH)
-Small-Stakes Shorthanded (SSSH)"
MHSH and SSSH should be specific to limit hold'em

"The 3 current limit hold'em forums become:
-Micro Limits(ML)
-Small Stakes(SS)
-Mid Stakes(MS)
-Higher Stakes(HS)"

Additionally, we'll have:

Beats, Brags, and Variance
Forum Suggestions.

Maybe "forum suggestions and questions" instead? So that people can ask things as well as suggesting? I'm not sure I understand the purpose of the "forum suggestions" forum, so tell me if I'm offbase.

Yeah, you're right. Just call it "Forum Issues and Support", or something like that.
