    Yes, when they lock stuff rather than moving it. It mkes no logical sense, or when they lock your thread for not being in the right place but don't use the same logic for other threads:rolleyes:

    i get threads closed on a daily basis when there is no reason for it.....i think they do it too quickly..without following any guideline or rules as to when they should.

    Well, it's mostly because a lot of them are gits who react in the completely opposite way to rational. And they can do it without any ramifications, because they answer to no one it would seem. Even if they did, any complaints made would probably have this über-mod laugh his hole off and then delete it, and give you some bull**** reply where he justifies their actions.

    YAY!

    The mods here are the coolest posters ever, but it really annoys me when they ban me. Its such a thoughtless act, but it is OK when they ban others.

    Meh. I don't envy them in any way. I wouldn't* become a mod even if I was paid.

    *couldn't either.

    problem is, i doubt they,r told anything..they get no training they do what they think is correct.......but when a thread with 20+ is closed by 1 person who doesnt agree with the 20...that ruins the fun of the majority

    Nope. A large amount use (read:bend) the rules to fit their own nasty little whims.

    Not saying that there aren't really nice mods too but, I hardly ever notice them, which is sad. Maybe I notice them if they make a funny post in AH or whatever. But when a mod is a complete arsehole by god you know about it.

    To be fair, the mods in the forums I tend to be active enough in are sound. Only ever had a problem once, and that was when there was a distinct lack of moderation in a forum for a sustained period of time.

    That said, I've seen mods that just take the piss and abuse their position as well, but luckily in my experience these are few and far between.
