LOCKED THREADS?
 
Seriously, whats going on here?

Just ran through the MODERATION thread, and indeed there were flames but there were some good ideas. . .

Why are threads being locked because SOME PERSON/S drag the thread into OFF-OFF-TOPIC land? We have tools that allow you to clean up threads that get out of control off-topic. If someone has ruined a thread, this is what should be done, not posting "Thank [insert name] for getting thread locked" -

Should this have been posted in Officers Forum - maybe, but I think this forum needs to know whats going on and that mods are committed to actually doing their jobs and not making some really head-scratch worthy decisions.

Feel free to comment and critique.

i agree...every 2nd topic is getting locked. ffs annoy:

Nobody is ever happy with the mods, unless they are a mod...I'm sure if most of the people here ever became mods they wouldn't be complaining.

Arkan 03-16-2005 02:13 PM

Thats why i always attach my name to any post i edit/move/question.

Those that want to lead shouldn't... those that don't want to lead should. ;)

Hmmm too many mods maybe? Isn't this one of the contributors of the last rev?

BTW NB4LOCK. People have to stop saying that gay fucking shit. It pisses me off.

Trunks 03-16-2005 02:50 PM

I must agree with TGB on this one. Y punish the group if only one or two are at fault?

I should lock this just on GP....lol

I've noticed this too, just didn't care too much. I probably missed out on a couple dozen replies or so telling someone to STFU or Die or some dumb shit like that. Wait a minute, that's all offtopic is anyway.

Probably too many mods. However, can't say that I've objected to them locking any particular threads.

why do we have so many offtopic mod's anyway?
de-mod the 3 new guys that were recently moded, are they really needed?
I think they are causing more problems than solving problems.

Ok, to answer this question for the hundredth time....we needed more mods because of BS and Zoner not being able to keep an eye on things. Plus, us mods are on at all different times hence a better job keeping things in check.
The only time a thread should be deleted and or edited is when it breaks the rules (p0rn, warez, unrelentless flaming, going waaaaay off topic, reposts) ...things of that nature. The mods should assign their names when applicable so you'd have someone to cry to when your feelings get hurt.

Does that answer everbody's question? Can we finally move forward?

1080jibber 03-16-2005 04:05 PM

i doubt we need this many mod's in offtopic. this place isnt that popular, but ya make it seem like there needs to be someone here 24/7.

i dont understand that going way offtopic thing, if it keeps the thread alive than let it get offtopic.

Judas 03-16-2005 04:06 PM

i havent even noticed any locked threads

TonyMontana 03-16-2005 04:12 PM

if you want threads to stay open longer, i'm going to delete any post that has NB4LOCK in it, because that is the biggest contributor to it
