[guitarrocker]

I'm thinking bout when to start hiring and i wanna know what every1 else did

I hire them as I need them. If you just made a forum the only reason I could see to hire mods is to insure you have some people active.

For the forum in your sig

When you can no longer run the place by yourself.

I never hired anyone....and I dont have forum mods...they are board mods only...and they earned those positiions....but thats my way...others have freinds they give the postitions to. Each admin does what they feel is best for them.

As said many time before by many people, but just thought I'd mention it again in case you weren't advised....well it is always best to give trusted members powers, those that have been with you for a long time and you are almost certain that their actions will be fair and that they understand that they must not be tempted to the dark side by the evil n00bs ;D.

I never hired mods. I awarded some singular board positions to some of my members. Some of it came with the position of a teacher or assistant, but the ones that mod multiple boards are those that earn it.

I add more than one mod to a board when it gets to be too much for one mod to take care of.

I'd personally say hire ones you actually trust and just wait until you need them. (When your forum gets active.) I started up a forum a while ago, it had OK activity.. We hit about 500 posts in 2 weeks, but still, I hired moderators I didn't even know, some were good, but a few were bad. They sucked at their jobs so I removed their position and then they deleted their account. So really, I felt used.

At the moment i'm struggling to attract members

A week into my site. I held a competition which I'll never ever do again.

Perhaps asking at Invis might get better answers then.
