First let me say that I am sorry if I have been one to steer things off-topic. I try not to do that because it does get rather obnoxious. I wanted to be part of the "Ignorance" discussion, but by the time I got to it, I felt that I would be saying the same thing that you and many others had already said and I didn't want to be redundant.
Now, I am a highly organized person, almost to a fault. My professional background has always been one of "assistant", a.k.a. organizing other peoples' business. I'm a almost full-time stay-at-home mom to a cute and silly little 8-month-old. While I'm not sure I would be qualified to be the sole moderator, I would like to help, if at all possible. I have no problem keeping things "on task", for lack of a better term; I'm a part-time daycase teacher to eight, yes, eight two-year-olds. I would be more than willing to help, if someone else were to take the reins.
Also, which kinds of things would you like to see on the board and which kinds of things would you like to see taken somewhere else? I don't think you should be shy about saying what you want here because it is YOUR board. I know that you cherish your fans and we thank you for that, but this board is here for you - whether it's a sounding board for something weighing on your mind, a place to update us on what's going on, a place to discuss characters you've played, etc. I agree that anything off-topic needs to be clearly labeled and held in special threads.
I hope I am not out of place with all of this. I want to see "aces in their places" on this one.

All the best,
Val

P.S. I forgot to add that perhaps another forum format would work better for what you seem to be envisioning. I'm no good when it comes to website stuff, but you (or someone else willing to redesign everything) may want to consider shifting it to some system like Proboards.com where things already have designated main topics (i.e. "Christy", "Four Vines", "Off-Topic", etc.). That way it will be significantly more controlled and easier to browse through/contribute to.
