Just as well you added that, Tommy (the 'cunt' bit). Hmmm...does anyone else get the feeling that Grim is quietly itching to be selected for such a position? Why would he be keen for the power to delete threads, i wonder? 'Those who want power most are the very ones who shouldn't have it'. I think him and Barry might be placed under too much temptation. :!:
Nur I have my own board to run. I have no interest in doing anything here. The person that does get selected should only be allowed to delete the spam.
I don't really exist Nursey. I am just an opposing positive energy force that rises in response to negative energy. The place was out of balance. It had to happen.
I mean I come here cause I like you guys and I have no responsibility what so ever and I can post stupid shit from time to time.
To be honest the only 2 people I would trust with the power that I know wouldn't do anything but get rid of the spam is Nursey or Chester.
What the fuck am I? Chopped liver? I would only delete posts and/or threads that were completely useless. Like the 'last one to post...' thread.... :twisted:
Quit talking about who should be selected to moderate. That isn't going to happen. Nobody will moderate. Has anyone taken the time to look at other board software?
I did teacher. http://forums.invisionpower.com/ Has a lot of bells and whistles it seems. http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/index.php?s=f4d95387802b836af1927355285ae436 Looks a little cleaner and to-the-point. I don't lurk here much anymore, so my opinion isn't top notch. I don't know what I do with my free time anymore. I think I just exist. I can look around later today for stuff though.
Instead of having someone mod the board, could you turn off auto registration and manually authorize new users? I dunno. Sounds pretty time consuming and tedious. Tommy, sometimes I miss being your "mum".
I nominate Judge Floro to be nobody. He seems honest, and with his special powers he could put an end to all spam by cursing the senders. Eventually they all die - and POOF! - no more spam. The world could be a better place Jefe. Think about it.
Then the place will fail. There is no magic fix to spam. Not talking about a mod just someone we all trust to delete the spam and that's all. No ban powers or anything else. You have to have someone for clean up on a board. If your not around to do it then you need someone. Like I said before boards don't run themselves.
Would it? If that were an option, there don't seem to be too many legitimate newbies with which to contend. Ya'll go recruit, vouch for your protege, and Jefe can allow them into the "family." Don't forget to kiss his ring.
