Like you did with Sinnoh fan club? That's good idea but you're the only moderator in this section so that would require lot of work from you.
I agree that it would probably be a little too much for one person to handle (even though it's Alex ^^), though I don't like the idea of picking people who to be better and more suited than others from a section. Perhaps it could be something to sign up for, where the moderator then gives some kind of interview to see if the person's suited for the job and those who get selected have to make a specific amount of give-away clubs?
I agree, you're already so busy as it is Alex, you never stop! xD; but other than that I think its a great, idea or perhaps, to solve the workload, some of Pokemon Club's most active/helpful/contributive members begin to do what you suggested. That way, the workload is spread evenly..
I am still getting used to the fact that Pokemon Groups is now known as Pokemon Clubs. The day it changed, I logged on and literally was scrolling pu the page 4 - 5 times looking for Pokemon Groups, completely missing the board and its new name. xD

I'd say, for the people who has the time and free-time to actually create a good club, give it a try. What can hurt?How would people feel about moderator-run clubs that can be taken on by others? For example a moderator would start a club for fighting types and upkeep it until a member wants to take it over and run it on their own? There'd be a lot to work out, but what do people think about the basic concept?

Some clubs I've seen (Not naming names or pointing fingers here) do need some work on. The list of Pokemon need to be organized properly, sprites of each individual Pokemon especially gives it a good look rather than just 'names,' in my opinion.
But to include a variety of different selections, such as questionnaires/quizzes/trivia, know how to make an interested activity among the group alive (like the points system for example..or topic discussion) and so on are very important, in my opinion.
& the club creator/owner, MUST (I mean huge must like...MUST) be active enough to keep the club alive and going. This is probably the biggest decision also, how active will a club owner be.
I liked how the Review thread is created for that purpose. I do have to ask, it's almost a month since the last post. In regards of the future members if they ever post, will they get an infraction for thread revival or is this an exception?
You know what they say, better safe than sorry! :D
