Ahhh "AFAIR", usually that goes further than a week.

I can assure you I did not make that post - even if it is under my signature.
Must have left myself signed in a cafe somewhere but it was not me.

I have never even looked at that thread before now!.

Seems to have turned into a right MOD thread. What forum isnt covered by a mod making some mod sided comment yet? And its been completely off topic for ages.

I'm sorry Moriarty you do do a good job, I didnt understand until now that all the other mods are clowns and your the only one with sense! :P

If the people calling Moriarty into question are a fair example of what he has to put up with on a daily basis in Broadband then the man deserves a medal for not having set himself on fire in silent protest.

Seriously lads if you have such a problem with the way things are then I'd suggest you go and start your own forum. If you feel like staying around here then you'll make things a lot easier on yourself if you attempt to see things from the mod/admins point of view. A lot of the rules/actions of mods make a lot of sense when you look at things from a broader prespective.

This could well be true.

I suppose we could moderate silently but that wouldn't be nearly as affective.

Hobbes

Dont always see eye to eye when it comes to debating (if you can call my ramblings that).. but hes a good moderator. Thumbs up here.

that not true. many mods here do a good job.
some do less than good jobs, and some go above and beyond the call of duty.

however, what is importnat to remember, is that they were placed in that position by admin. and whether they are considered good or not by you or me or anyone else (becuase, it is all subjective, isnt it), is irrelevant. it is only the admins that matter.

if you have a problem, then i would think a good idea is to put forward a good argument that shows which side is lacking, and maybe a solution as to how you feel that this mod can be helped. on the other hand, saying that someone is crap, and then whingin, is likely to get you ridiculed, and disliked. mostly by other mods and users who know the person in question.
becuase we all know each other, and we all like each other, and just becuase some newbie comes in flapping about cliques, flapping about the unfairness of it all, and whining that the system does not live up to their expectations, really dont matter a jot.

so if you have some useful critisisms, please lets have them.

if all you want to do is be agressive, point a few fingers, and get into a verbal argument, then be prepared for the sort of responses you get.

Moriarty

Thats a good one, really you should do that for his birthday.

On another note he's not bad at all sure i fell the wrong way with him once over a poll, i apoligsed and he greatly accepted it, mods are there to protect the innocent and to ban the guilty.

Awesome, you make me feel like a superhero!

apart from the €9.35/hour it's a pretty thankless job. (you get paid more the more forums you mod, the Category mods pull in nearly a grand a week!)

Thanks Cult, way to give the game away :rolleyes: But in fairness, insuring Aston Martins and paying for "pleasurable company" doesn't pay for itself.

Man, you're getting ridden. I'm on double pay for modding at 5am. You really need to start modding on Christmas Day (quadruple pay and a free cracker), Easter (quad pay and a free rabbit dinner) and weekends (treble pay and Regi brings you a free stew every Saturday). Your twopence a week and jam every other day (always jam yesterday and tomorrow, never jam today) salary wouldn't keep me in clover. Stay on boards all this Thursday and you'll get your complimentary snake surprise and shamrock hamper in the post first thing Monday. You know it makes sense.

Money's tight in boards-land this year (Cloud wants that ivory back scratcher) so ecksor's just sending a worm and cheese basket to the HMods with no stamps on the parcel.
