''And me?''

''And us?''

Old habits die hard. I am beyond glad I am esconsed this side of the ur-barrier 'Atlantic'.

"...and me?"

WORD.

Also, no one here is capable of being a moderator. I think the people who complain all the time would delete posts and even board greats such as Atari had their limits. If anyone was capable of doing it it would be me and AB simply because we wouldn't moderate. It would be the old board basically.

CHABIB is doing a wonderful job.

Mentally handicapped jokes are MUCH FUNNIER than racist jokes and much more acceptable.

You are an idiot.



next

User mods would fucking suck.

Yes they would.

ill admit, i miss the more civil ways but i am totally against mods.
to anyone who is with me, just make worthwhile posts yourself.

the reason people make gay threads is because there are no other threads for them to post in, so make some good ones for them. im not nearly as active on this forum as i once was but if you want nice threads, make nice threads.

who said this was a joke? suck my...nevermind.

Yeah !! Words don't hurt me....but that cock suckin' does !

Yikes !!!

There are times when people are under personal attack when some kind of instant moderation is desperately needed, because for all the 'it's only the internet so it doesn't matter' cries, this is still a community of people who are real, whose feelings on the internet are largely the same as in 'real life'. If you feel that you have formed even one or two friendships here then that's proof of that fact.

User moderation is not the answer though; as chabib says somewhere, this forum is largely successul as somewhere where people gather and hang out. Perhaps (probably) it's to do with my politics, but I can't understand why people want to be monitored, edited and admonished by a higher power; other boards on the internet actually, for the most part, have more instances that require moderation, and the fact that they have a moderator is a part of that. The presence of power encourages naughtiness, for want of a better word.

Also beware of that fact that the actions of moderators are as likely to offend as they are to please.

I believe that there have been times since the new board was set up that we have very much needed a moderator to warn or serve a temporary suspension, but we have gone without. But in the most part this is a nice place, and it really is easy enough to ignore those users or threads that cause you irritation or offence.

On a slightly irrelevent note, I also don't want a user moderator for a more personal reason; I think I know who it might end up being, and I would have to leave the board if I were right (by choice, as a rather silly 'protest', but I would have to). I don't really want to do that, as I feel I have a few friends here too.

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Hip Priest again."

But please, let's let this whole die topic die now, and just get on with improving the board by just being more positive instead of constantly moaning.

Yeah, I know, I've done my bit of moaning over the last couple of days, but I've seen the light now.

How would you guys like me as a "USER MOD"?

Ok, then. now do you understand why we all don't want "user mods"?

not everyone here gets along and there will always be people who don't get along with certain "user mods" and believe me, personal feelings will eventually get the best of the "user mod" to the point where things are taken personal.

NO!
We don't need user mods.

make everyone a user mod, and let pandemonium ensue!

All annoying posters should be gang raped.

that might be fun

i agree this has gone far enuff. maybe we should all get a grip and just go back to listening to music and discussing cool shit again......

i sugest, all go and listen to silver session real fucking loud the whole way thru t=right now and then return to the board!!!

user mods, nah... more cons than pros for me.

hahaha. Pass them around like a peace pipe at an Indian gathering.
