Petition: Forum Moderators

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

They can do IC and deletion and stuff, idk. I feel like we need forum moderators and game moderators so mods don't feel bogged down.

I never said it did, Bear. All i'm saying is that if i, as admin, could delete censor bypasses and move threads when necessary without it even being a burden, then forum mods are unnecessary.
Ah, sorry, I thought you implied it. My bad

there were more reasons i had for supporting this idea, back in the day, but i don't remember what any of it was

just got done with my app.

I actually thought it was a good idea, me posting this had nothing to do with wanting to mod.

"forum mods" more like "someone looking to get +/- 10 abilities without actually having to do anything"
nevermind, this is a good idea. i'm going to be a forum mod

all the current mods [at the very least] view the forums, you don't need someone else there just to delete posts with naughty words in them, they can handle it.

some ppl just wanna be forum mods
deleteddeletedover 11 years ago
but anyway, if my memory is right it was done before and the forum mods eventually were allowed to just start moderating games because there was nothing for forum mods to actually need to do.
deleteddeletedover 11 years agoedited
1. its been tried before and didnt work, and 2. there are only a limited amount of slots for moderators in the first place. actually i think the limit was abolished.

Well said Natalie

I mean I don't think we absolutely need forum mods but there wouldn't be a down side to it, really.

All I'm saying is if you guys think of one good reason why forum moderators are a bad idea, I will consider it
if it's not broken, don't fix it. A system like this isn't going to be implemented unless you can show that there's some sort of need for it.

The Mod Elite Group is the equivalent of the big 8th graders graduating from the 6th grade Spec. Ed.

Eh that's true but the gold star doesn't really mean much and neither does the +10 because that would benefit forum mods because they can hide stuff etc

But yeah I don't know if there's a way for them to not have access to the moderator forum
no, they do, and i only brought them up because they do. they are things that attribute to the "elite" perception of moderators.
deleteddeletedover 11 years ago
If there's something on the forums that's posted and you think it needs to be gone just PM one or three of the 14 MODs, matter of fact just skype one of them because i'm sure you have at least half of them on skype and it'll be gone fairly quickly.

because forum mods remain a part of the community instead of being part of an "elite" group

Devante, those mods can be prone to hidden linking, these mods form a bridge between moderator and common user, and help the site out.

Think of a reason why we should NOT add forum moderators.
We have forum mods. We don't need mods specifically for the forum when a majority of the mods are active on the forum.
deleteddeletedover 11 years ago
the forums are reaching a new level of cringe.

desperation is in the air.
