But yeah, I don't see why we have so many mods in the first place. Most of them aren't on later on in my night and all. Anyways, when was it decided that PTS was going to be a mod?

as far as numbers are concerned, i say the more the merrier, but perfection? bull.............shit........

We shouldn't start attacking him, he isn't a bad lad.
We just want to have some basic notification on this sort of thing.

I know the thread is closed, but I felt it was neccesary for me to get my 25 cents in.

First of all the time issue. Time is probably the last thing we care about when picking a mod. I can think of one time when a time issue was important, and that was by the spamming of the mygot forum. It took 3 hours, but it was taken care of. More issues....

that's actually why i was so pissed about this decision, noone asked us

We're picking a mod, not having a popularity contest. One of the most important quality is being able to get along with the rest of the mods so we can all try to be as even and fair as possible, but also have similar reactions to problems.

not only that, but this occured to me also:
iamalejo - emo/hardcore/punk
fenixpunk - punk
AITA - emo/hardcore
etc etc etc

The job of being the mod is to moderate the forums, not be a nazi at what is this and that type of music. 99.999% of all moderation takes place in the lounge anyway. Makes that point useless. I'm completely down for giving out special titles or even colored names to those that specialize in a certain topic of music, but one's expertise in an area isn't one of the biggest qualities we look for when giving someone the spot. David Frost, knows a lot about music, but he's a d-bag. No chance he should be a mod.

PM if you have any questions on what I wrote. But it is really that simple.

I agree. Seriously has Allnitedinah even left the punk forum? Ya never see him anywhere else. And I only know he's a he because Ethan mentioned it. Otherwise, I know nothing about this "moderator".

I want more AITA's

As in, european. As in, the rest of the world. As in, south of the equator perhaps.

The forum doesn't need 8 mods or whatever.

4 well situated mods would be more effective then the current 8 due to time zones.

Nothing against the current mods, just it'd be so much more effecient. Law of Diminishing Returns... for anyone who knows anything about economics

Urban Hat€monger ? · 01-25-2006, 04:57 PM

As long as they`re consistant & fair this place could have 20 mods for all I care.

Barnard17 · 01-25-2006, 04:57 PM

Only thing is this isn't an economic issue. The mods are there because they're willing to do the job and for the most part have proven themselves capable (I say for the most part because I don't know everyone on the team). As long as we have some well situated ones, it doesn't matter if we have some floating about because it's not like there's a limited number of placements.

The point of this thread is that people shouldn't be given the chance over other people who are showing themselves to be what some would consider more suitable for the job.

And who might these people be?

that question was answered, not only was it proper to ask urban and stu before perfection because of seniority, but the fact that we're being moderated by a 15 year old is not only rediculous but insulting ....

if you're going to choose another mod from the us, big3 would have been a far better and more deserving choice...

not only that, but this occured to me also:
iamalejo - emo/hardcore/punk
fenixpunk - punk
AITA - emo/hardcore
thrice - emo/hardcore
allnightdinah - emo/hardcore/punk
perfection - i have no idea but i would venture a guess that it's emo/hardcore
riseagainst - rock/metal

hmmmm.....nepotism? yes, and it sucks balls.....

and yes, the free masons REALLY DO RULE THE WORLD!!!!
