Mods Locking Your Threads

looks like thius is a time when a shift in power could happen. but ill say this, from the looks of the responses on this thread, the percentage of people complaining is extremely low. extremely!

not passing judgement, just looking at it and trying to warrant a change.

fuck that then all the whinny-ass liberals will just bomb the shit out of good ol' American threads, so much for controversy...make the rules simple and equal, take out the human element...only lock racist or source threads, everything else goes (minus extreme personal flaming)...plus their is way too many mods, delete a few of them

It's not the "whiney ass liberals" that constantly run around trying to acting like bombing babies over controversy.

See what I mean by whiney ass liberals? there you go, proving my point.
Star, you are always instigating shit and pointing fingers yet when it comes back to you you get defensive and angry...makes it hard to have a rational debate

First, you need to understand something, I didn't resign because of the workload, I resigned because some of the member's only reason for being here is to create drama, and I got tired of beating my head against a brick wall in trying to deal with them.

To be completely honest, before George starts to limit his moderators, he needs to get rid of some of these drama makers, whether they are regular members or platinum. The biggest problem right now is that there are some platinum members who think that they are untouchable, and as long as that attitude is in place there will be issues.

This is why i think it is good that you stepped down. You let your emotion and personal beef interfere with your mod duties. If their was an election I doubt you would be elected, nothing personal, it's just that I don't think your beliefs are shared by very many here. Come out and say it, you don't like Lestat. Well, unforunatley for you, the majority of peeps here like the dude and I will say he has contributed more here than I have ever seen you contribute.

Ok, please let me know how to make it better?

sorry it has taken so long to reply george....any way i think that there should be certain criteria that needs to be met before a thread is locked...such as discrimination,scammers,alters posts,severe flaming of one member, and of course bad talking the site. other than that i think that the threads should be left as is..people are allowed to argue their opinions this is a discussion forum. i think that chat and conversation board should be left the way it is. other serious boards should be the boards that the mods focus more attention on....

Wow that is a pretty bold statement. I do like Lestat but doesn't mean he has done more for the site then Big4Life. How long has Big4Life been and mod here? I dunno a long dam time. Anywho everytime a mod helps someone out do you think we see it? NO! A lot of mods here help a lot of people everyday but you just don't see it.

just my opinion. if the field was level and lestat was a mod I'm sure he would help out to. big just struck me as too bitchy, and it is for the better that he stepped down, which I am sure he and many others would agree

How was that a complaint? It was more like a FACT

Who said I was angry?

Give credit where credit is do. I see the groups who constantly drops bombs around this place. I don't really even see the point of bombs. If I bombed you, it would take all of 2 minutes for you two have someone remove it. I just think it's beyond silly.

I have never asked for one thread to be locked....ever

modding is a job that requires one to move ur beliefs and feelings out of the way of it, in order to do the job effectively.

look at stilletto. tuc harrases him alot and gives him red and post stalks him. he doesnt go back and fuck with tuc's threads.

he is a good mod.

you on the other hand would make a terrible mod, because you think (judging from this post) it is about popularity, blah blah, who u like most. u act like modding is some sort of high and mighty position. its a job, and if u can do it right, u have a right to be one, if u cant, then u shouldnt be one.

lestat doesnt do anything (per se, -however hes a good bro who probably brings in traffic with his posts) - but he hasnt done anything bad either.

poor modding chases traffic, whether he flirts with u or not, gambino's post was dead on

OMG Big4Life has NEVER flirted with me EVER. Why do you assume that me sticking up for someone means I flirt with them? :rolleyes:

My post was not slamming Lestat either. I agree with you modding is not about popularity or agreeing with everyones opnions. Is it being unbiased similar to a journalist they should keep there thoughts and feelings out of what they do to a thread and look at it from both sides to see what is truly fair to do with it.
 
I view modship the same way I view the office of President. If you want the job enough to actively run for it, you're too power-hungry to be trusted with it.

Presidents should be drafted, sentenced to serve four years, and then allowed to escape.

LOL!! Not a bad idea though!
 
Sometimes I wonder how people have beefs and contrevorsy online. I mean shit, like this stuff is gonna affect you in real life. Why bother sweating over the small stuff?
 
the board should simply be handled as it was when I first joined

Source threads, and threads that contained realistic threats should be locked and thats it. Let people have their drama and arguments, its fun. Let people be able to talk about past occurences on this sight and voice their own opinion. Make a set rule list of GOOD reasons that a thread should be locked. When a mod goes to lock a thread, program it so that the list of rules comes up and they have to click on the one that is appropriate. Finally after they do this make it so that when a member opens a locked thread, that the thread specifically says this thread has been locked by "name here" on the basis of "the rule they clicked here" That should eliminate personal agendas and hold the mods up to scrutiny that they can be called on if they break the rules of locking. I dunno just an idea because I don't trust the judgement of mods in many circumstances, especially when an entertaining thread with a little drama gets locked with the quote "this thread is stupid, done"
 
oh yea one other thing, the post whores, karma whores, and girls that only have contributed "sexy" pcitures should NOT be made moderators unless they have demonstrated exceptional abilities at helping out other members. These people are likely to be biased or unqualified for their duty. Sure popular people should be made mods IF they deserve it, but it should be based on action rather then popularity or the fact they flashed some skin for the camera (if you look over the history of elite there are a lot of women mods who never should have gotten it)
 
The TOS is now in my sig at the bottom of every post

I think just about every single member can agree that the locking of threads happens far too often. As already stated in here numerous times, threads should only be locked for very specific reasons i.e. spammers, source posts, certain racial and ethnic slurs, exposure of someone's personal info etc.

Dang, I tried to reply and it came out as an edit. Sorry 'bout that.

"Accountable" does not mean the mods have to fill out a form or type a reply -- no way I'm going to tie their hands while peeps are free to generate crap without even a one-minute speed bump.

If a mod has time and feels like trying to reason with the original poster, bless 'em. If we're in a crapflood and all they have time to do is hit the kill button, that's all I'm going to ask of them.

Last week couple of clowns decided to make every post on the front page have the same subject. Extremely rude to the rest of the community. You tell me I have to put an "explanation" on every single one of those threads before closing it, and my response will be to ban the sucker that much sooner.

You want the mods to be "accountable". Interesting. How do I make YOU "accountable"?

wel didn't mean an explanation, just say there are 10 rules to locking threads (really don't think more would be needed) when you hit lock a window pops up with poll type bottons 1-10, click the number of the rule that was broken and done thats not very hard, it was just an idea
