Clay, Dee,
Not sure why they went away but can we please get a few posters with mod powers again?
I think the forum ran a bit smoother with mods than without. Especially now. It seems cyclical but there are days when we could see some mods on these forums.
Just my 2 cents.
Cosigned.
I agree to this, please. There are a few bad apples that tend to ruin it for everyone else. It would be nice if those could be silenced etc....and all the dumb threads that get started, if there was a proper place that they could be moved etc...having mods with those powers would be nice
Whoo hoo....power to the posters!
Seriously though I wonder if we could get a concerted effort going to see if we can politely request for Clay or Dee to return mod powers to those who had them or new ones if the old ones displeased them.
I'm down with this too please. I don't come here to watch 13 year olds with legitimate, difficult personal problems get shredded by 20 year old cyber-bullies flexing the full power of their anonymity like the true men that they are. In a word "ugly".
I wouldn't want the power, but I think some regular "normal" posters should be allowed to, HGM is a perfect mod
Yes please! Mods!
Agreed
Agreed!
Agreed!
Hey guys,
Noted, but we still are having some issues with the mod accounts in vBulletin, and with the concern that some of the previous mods were counter-productive. And with BB2K10 just out, this isn't exactly our #1 concern right now.
Thanks Clay.....understood.
I will drop the issue.
I do want to say thanks for hearing us and responding. You rock.
yup, thanks ClayQuote:

In Metsguy's "I REALLY need to vent" thread some guy named a57nxj or something like that was incredibly rude and disrespectful, and was just a total jerk. If you aren't going to have a mod, could you at least do something about him? Thanks.Quote:

Do not allow the banning or censorship of books, movies, and games!
As TNP said, ignore the guy or just stay out of that thread
I did that, and I think he did respond when he quoted your post and stated he did not want to deal with petty squabbles. But I think this was more then a little thing...Quote:

This doesn't speak well to the idea of bringing mods back if all it will do is get people banned depending on who gets along well with which mods.Quote:

I'm contemplating ignoring anyone young than I am.
Hopefully Rongar doesn't do the same. He would have a boring forum.Quote:

Rongar would be fine. He'd just talk to himself by creating new characters.
Agreed.Quote:

I feel I meet both requirements :D. Realistically, I would say RickD and ArcticBlast would be great mods.Neither seems biased or holds a grudge, you know?Quote:

That would be best. IF they are unknown and Clay or Dee gives them a list of parameters then it would work wonders.Quote:

Everyone just needs to take a deep breath, and move on. I'm sick and tired of this pointless babbling about who started what. Just end it and move on.

I disagree. We probably all could name several people who have hindered this forum way more that what they contributed to it. Banning these would would go A LONG way to curbing other from engaging in similiar behavior.
