Recently I've been noticing that lots of users have been applying themselves for the position of Chat Moderator. I have also observed that many of these user applications are met with a not-so positive reply from the community. The title of Chat Moderator seems to have descended to the point where users think to themselves: ''"Hey, I do chat every now and then. I should apply for Chat Moderator. I'll probably get it, people like me." ''This should not be the attitude when applications are made for senior positions on the wiki.

Due to the excess of the matter, and the amount of applications coming in on a weekly basis. I propose that for the tilte of Chat Moderator, you must be nominated by another member on the wiki, preferably, another Chat Mod. I believe this will allow for a more effective Chat Mod application system, as the users on their actually have some respect from fellow wikians.

Also, hopefully, yet unlikely. A more effective, and mature nomination system may result in the right users being chosen for the status of Chat Moderator, and earn a decrease in Chat related drama and abuse.

Do you guys agree?
