Just a thought.

Probably because it doesn't need it. The Tech Help forum rarely gets any bad posts, and when it does, another admin or mod will fix it. Although this forum isn't posted in as much, it is still viewed by a large amount of people.

(Although I sure wouldn't mind being a mod )

Moderators of forums don't necessarily need to specialize in the areas they moderate. I'm sure that Link would make for a great moderator, but there isn't really that much rule-breaking in this forum in my opinion.

Just because someone is specialized in some area, doesn't really mean they need to be a moderator for it.

For example, in the clan talk forum it is wise not to have someone specializing in clans.

Maybe not, but Link is nice AND specialised. The traits of a mod, no?

I guess Ice M A N is the moderator of JCS, and we have programmer-types moderating Possum, Future, and 1.25.

I know I would be a good moderator, and I'll gladly accept the position if they want me to, but I don't think it is really needed in this forum right now.

Any official opinion? (From mods\admins)

Link probably isn't a moderator of this forum for the same reason why Alberto, Krezack, or Overlord is not. Fquist and Derby aren't having any trouble handling the moderating of this forum by themselves. If they need help, they'll ask for it. Still, I'm all for making Link a moderator. He's got the time and the expertise for the technical help field.
