Okay, she deleted those posts. So why then close it?

I like closing threads. It's fun.

On every message board I've browsed upon, I've felt the mods have been on this power trip so they could have the power of closing threads and deleting things.

In general, I think people take mod positions on sites and message boards far too seriously. There is no mod school. Nothing is prestigious about being a mod. Mods are not cooler than normal users.

Just leave threads open. Unless someone is being majorly bashed, there really isn't a need to lock a thread. On a repost of a topic, maybe a link to the already ongoing discussion, but there are far too many threads I see on boards where a mod replies "Well, what's-his-face has found whatever, so there is really no need for this any more. Locked."

Augh. Who cares.

Trick question! You do! So does Mykel! And like 9 other people!

Haha.. I am great. :cool:

I haven't seen the moderation being that bad lately.. I personally felt Zero Hour was nuking posts in the GK section just because he could, but that's ok.

I think moderation has gone up alot from when it has been, it's just been a testy last month on certain subjects, and due to experiance with said subjects you can see why a thread (such as the one about Malinko) would of been closed; but at the same time you can see why it coulda been left open..

Eh, there's always been a small comprimise when it came to how these forums operated, but I mean honestly, who wants to see reasons for threads being closed, like there is for each deletion? The reason for post deletion annoys me when reading a thread.. it's nice to know my comments were deleted/why, but I don't want to see *******#1/2/3/4/5/6/7///9/8/76/7/56/23r4/2/e1q/ and so on.. I'd rather not see that happen with the 'closed' threads, either.

Just my 2 cents. I'm catching up to 50. ;l

Why do the police enforce the law, anyways?

Even police go above and beyond. Police have rules too.

When the laws are made responsibly and enforced responsibly, responsible people do not have a problem with it. The fact is, the enforcing of the rules is erratic. Not just that, but many of them make no sense and the authorities refuse to discuss them, are falsely interpretted for personal agendas, et cetera.

Yes but my point is... You know what, nevermind. It was meant to be an obnoxious, satirical comment to what he was saying. I'm not even going to bother debating it with you or VT since you can't take a joke. :|

This is true, since we are both hardass and emo.

You see Police break the law all the time, though. Do you get upset, goto City Hall, and demand reform? No, you just do it here cause it's the internet.

On that note.. continue.

Police go to jail all the time for breaking the law. Don't get me wrong, a lot of times they get away with it, and there have been a lot of times when mods have done things they shouldn't have.

Oh well...

Anyway, we need Kaimetsu back, or a different person to 'run' the forums. I understand we have quite a few super-mods now, but Moonie generally 'runs' them.

We need defined ranks of "Super Super" mods. Like the Super Duper Duper Mod, Super Duper, then the dinky Super Mod (hi Kamuii <3)

okok we already have that new idea

I didn't really read that you quoted him, I just read what you put and made a judgement off of that. :( Lo siento.

Hey hey I don't take orders from nobody. No guff. >:[

Though I am susceptible to bribes of the candy type.
