What do You think about Mods?

[Katganistan]

[Where to go if we have complaints about mods? The forum admin or co-admin? Don't get me wrong, I don't have complaints, yet.

The Getting Help page is a good place to start, since everything is logged, and no mod can alter it.

Mods are part of what makes NS such a great place.

If there were no mods. Just imagine Youtube minus the videos.

Trolls would run rampant. Spamming would be everywhere. Even worse Turn into a p... site

[Franklin Delano Bluth]

One need only look at the blatantly dishonest, disingenuous, and self-serving comments of a number of moderators (primarily Katganistan) throughout this thread to realize how jealously most of them guard their power against any suggestion that there might be room for improvement, and how most of them see it as a marker of personal status rather than as a trust for the benefit and service of the community we have here.

I flicked through that and found nothing. Was there any particular post you wanted me to look at that I may have missed?

Neo Art starts to scratch the surface

Katganistan posts a ridiculous response that, coming from someone of her intellect and education, can only be described as a disingenuous attempt to pull the wool over everyone's eyes

Neo Art calls her on it

Katganistan accidentally reveals that yes, she does self-servingly see moderation as a badge or trophy rather than a trust

I call her on it

TCT also calls her on it

Katganistan recognizes her tactical error, and tries to distract our attention from it with more disingenuousness and a bit of emotional blackmail to boot

Neo Art calls her on it

I call her on it

Neo Art advocates for a system that requires moderators to actually do their jobs competently

Czardas (no longer active on NS) starts the process of circling the wagons now that their cover has been blown

TCT calls him on it

Katganistan now openly admits that she takes questioning of moderation decisions as a personal assault on her precious badge of power

And Neo Art calls her on it

Katganistan shamelessly tries to backpedal

Neo Art will have none of it

And neither will Muravyets

Nor will TCT

LG attempts to spoonfeed us a bit of pabulum

Neo Art spits it right back up

Muravyets suggests that "I don't get paid" is not a valid justification for not properly performing a volunteer position which one is free to quit at any time

Neo Art again just asks that moderators be expected to perform competently or resign

LG misses the point somewhat

Neo Art brings to the forefront how self-serving the responses from moderators have been so far

For a start...

is that link spam or evidence?

[Malaysii]

I like all the mods. They do a good job and all, but I've never really interacted with any of them, so I suppose I'm neutral.

Oh dear me, it seems as if some people in the thread have a nasty of case of Taking Yourself Too Seriously. Anyone need a tissue?

Its kleenex...

[Buffett and Colbert]

Did a mod ever go rogue by the way?

I've personally heard rumors told personally to me on a personal level that Katganistan was seen in a lesbian strip club. Personally.

It has happened. And that Mod was stripped of their position. [violet] then posted an apology on the forum.

[violet] and Max take it extremely seriously if we start abusing our position (Jokes aside), which is why everything that we do as Mods are logged in such a way that it cannot be erased by us.

Do mods with small number of posts (Say somehwere between 213-90) meaning that they don't do anything that much?

It's true. We both dressed in leather, went to a lesbian strip club, then we went to the Hayloft Saloon, one of the most successful leather bars in the Detroit area.

I went rogue. On the tapestry and the carpeting in the Mod Centre. It was atrocious.

From what I gather, it was still fabulous.

And you consider yourself worthy of being internet moderators. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

lolol did kat kiss a gurl?

I hope you redecorated the place to be stylish, yet still give off that evil layer of doom look.

[New Kriegizstan]

The mods are great, but I've seen them confuse, what was standard debating and stating of opinions, as trolling/flamebaiting.

*hug* I've got a special plan for when we go out. I'm going all-out in drag and we're going to sing to some Whitney and Diana Ross in total diva manners.
