Title: Are the moderators for good?
Post by: NeonVader888 on August 05, 2003, 08:52:30 PM
Are the moderators for good, or do they hand their position down over time, if so, do hey deside, or de we vote? Also, how long would be fare for a minitor to run? Just curiouse.

May the force be with you! :)

The mods have been appointed by Deezer and no one else, and there is no voting.

Thank you, that is all.

Eccentricity is my goal.

No, the moderators are for evil. Some are scaring me with their strictness and itchyness to use their power.

That's presisly why there should really be a voteing system. So everyone has a chance to run, and one person isn't in power forever. Just like a presidency. ;)

Why can't Deezer go back to moderating the whole message board?

 Eh... Why do you say that? They haven't even been Moderators for a week. Have they done something that displeases you?

 Not that he had to, Deezer didn't do an awful lot of Moderating here. With these new Mods, maybe we'll see less tolerance to the horrid problems that plague this forum.

"horrid problems that plague this forum"

Uh, what are these?

I assure you, I'm for good. I may be intolerant of "rule-breakers," but that's the way it should be, right?  Very rarely do I need to edit a post, because most people are mature enough to follow the rules. The ones who DO get their posts edited are the ones who shouldn't have posted it in the first place.

One thing though...  All of this "Closing Topics" is starting to bug me.  You guys shouldn't be so closing-happy. If something is inappropriate, just edit the posts; don't close the entire topic.  Very RARELY should closing and deleting topics be done, or else everyone will get annoyed with you.

As I said, if I may seem a bit strict, I assure you it's for the benefit of the boards; I'm for good here.  I hope none of you are upset with me; I just want everything to be at peace here.

 An exageration, basically.

 But basically, Spam has been a large problem over time, something to which everyone is guilty of.

 Constant posting of topics in the wrong forum. This happens more than enough.

 Topic Reviving. This in itself isn't bad, however, when a topic is revived for a one liner, especially after the topic's significance has passed, is when it becomes a problem.

I think the new mods are good.  I rember about a month ago, Latereous or whatever was posting all the crap.  It took a couple of days before it was deleted.  Now jasonhoover whatever's posts are getting eddited almost amdiateley!  But watoad isn't around much lately.  Did I have a chance to be a mod?  And I think editing the "who's hotter" post was dumb.

Watoad is around; he just doesn't post often. That doesn't mean he's not here.

I guess it's a good thing I became a mod... I've been seeing a LOT of swearing lately *cough*newbies*cough... Usually I'm pretty easy-going, but, as I've said before, when it comes to profanity, I'm COMPLETELY intolerant.
I apologize if that makes me seem like a jerk, but I have a very stubborn sense of righteousness, which can cause me to get annoyed when there is lack of it...

Yes, by all means enforce the four forum rules. Sapphira should not feel any guilt about editing out swearing if she wants to. Just try not to close "pointless" threads so quickly, especially if no rule is really being broken.

Thanks, LD. :)
And I agree with your last sentence.

Hey how are you other mods closing topics and editing posts outside of your section? It won't let me do that.

I think people are just getting jealous.
