A little on topic: I think that the less you notice the moderation on a forum, the best. You should only notice that the forum is clean and smart

new mods arent that great

way too many topics/posts getting edited in TESTING AREA

shouldn't be that way

finally somebody actually agrees with me
That's not somebody, that's Linkiboy!

..and yeah, he would feel that way, he's the king of testing.

Things were getting a little out of hand around here, and it was driving good members away from the board. We aren't perfect, but we have the interest of the community in mind when we do our stuff. If you think someone was being hasty in a mod decision, pm them about it. As long as you're not acting like a total jerk, we'll listen.

Moral: Don't be a dick, and you'll get by just fine.

75% of tempers like the new mods. I'd say that's pretty bloody good!

I think you guys have been great, not sure about the editing in the testing forum though. I can understand it if it's purposely offensive

Any post that I remove will have my name there, to partially answer your question at least.
Even if I wasn't the one who moderated, you're always free to PM me with questions.
I'm here for ya bebbah!
Here, I'm going to quote myself to correct myself. It was my understanding that my name would show up, but that's not the case. Seems I see it but you don't.

My offer still stands though, as I'm sure it does with all the other moderators.

(See, even I make misnakes!)

i dont because for one you guys close a lot of topics for a sucky reason and delete a lot of peoples post just because its a little off
topic and i can think of many more but dont feel like typing that much

Well the thing about that is that those are the rules. And I don't mean "blah blah blah, follow the rules or else, grrr". What I'm saying is that while the members have to follow the rules, it's our job as staff to enforce the rules. We can't pick and choose what we want to obey any more than you can. Ya' see, it's not the "new mods" (many of us aren't even "new"
laugh.gif
) that are doing this, it's the staff in general. Plus you may not realize it, but what we do is actually a very valuable service to the community, without the rules and people to enforce them this place would spiral into chaos.

I'm guessing you guys never heard of leniency? You guys completely DELETE a post, topic, or whatnot just because of the slightest thing. I'm not going to lie to you guys. You are making things to strict, and half of you are like...12? 13?

Actually, deleting and removing are two separate things. We almost never delete. And if we don't enforce the rules by say... removing an off-topic post, things quickly spiral out of control. You may not think so but ONE off-topic post can ruin a thread. JUST ONE. Because sure, it's one post, but then someone comments on that one off-topic post, and then someone comments on that, and then someone comments on that, and before you know it the entire thread is off-topic. At which point it's nearly impossible to get it back on topic. You may say "Oh, you're being too strict" but it's called being proactive. We stop the problem before it starts.

And as for our ages, most of the staff members are adults, actually.

JPH increases warnings.

And yeah, the moderators have continued to do a good job.
I must say that the board has been more strict and crackin' down on a lot of folks (but lucky I've only had 3 of my post edited

)


And AceGunman pwns - he's on like 24/7 (Sheesh...get a life, loser :dry)


Just a kiddin'
Ace is one cool fella...
And I love when he takes me around in his Batmobile

Keep up the good job, new mods

I like things the way they are. Without their stictness this forum would be full of trolls and flamers. I've never been warned or had any of my posts deleted (as far as I can remember). If you get your post deleted, it's probably pretty bad. Other then the avatar/signature size limitation I have no problems with the staff.

Leniency is for wimps.

No, sobbing to big-daddy government to sheild your eyes from teh bad manz is for wimps. And I don't frequent boards to get my posts "adjusted" for whatever reason. There's enough censorship outside the netz.

Fuck this noise.
