1. Poker mod @ SBR basically consists of simple simon tabulations of leaderboards, occasional announcements and occasional public forum chiming in (some miscellaneous not-all-that-complicated other stuff). Oh yeah, and ignoring posters.
IOW, it's an impotent position.
Designed to be.

No, what SBR actually needs is a true poker *manager*; someone w/ the power to implement real ideas to grow/improve poker here (only answering to 1 or 2 SBR bigwigs... period). Some changes are easy & obvious, and would increase poker activity immediately. The poker manager would actually have to know poker extremely well.

2. Install a true poker manager here that knew what they were doing... well, that job would be so far from thankless it'd make your head spin.

Dare I say that person(s) would become somewhat beloved round here?
