Individual names are listed by the forums because moderators choose specific forums to moderate. They can moderate all boards in the normal circumstance; however, the boards in which they have chosen to moderate are the ones they are encouraged to focus on. Does that make sense? It is more or less to help things run more smoothly.
Its just rather weird seeing it since moderators actually do all forums... Its just me.. I presume..
Not necessarily... I mean, moderators will handled something outside of their forum if it really needs to be handled. But generally, the forums that moderators sign up for are the ones that they are (generally) the most comfortable with moderating. For example, someone moderating
Get to Know Each Other or
General Other Topic Discussion is more likely to stay within their forum versus handling something in
User Writings or
General Wolf Discussion, unless it is an emergency or something basic.
I don't know how the current moderators feel exactly about forum assignments now, but that's something that has been around for a long time and generally ensures that everyone has enough to moderate, per say. I don't think that's something that will change, but I could be wrong.
