Nobody's Been Banned or Suspended in Over a Week

The moderation has definitely relaxed. I've seen many things posted that I've received infractions for in the past that now get left on the board. I don't know if Colton has finally given up or if all the posters who were offended have left the board. Neither are good.

I disagree.

Col*on hasn't given up, as evidenced by the lame-*** -21 he gave me regarding my potty-fingers. (sweet rep power, by the way brah, you must be awesome in RL)

When the majority favor evil, the end is near. I think colton and the rest have just given up and booked tickets to Jackson County.
 
You got in trouble for that? That **** was weak.
I would tend to agree. However, this is what you said after my tirade:

So the same moderator who keeps issuing me unfair warnings for defending myself, loses his cool and blows up on me.

Haha

That was easier than I thought it was going to be. And yes I did report you. But Cmon seriously, we both know nothing will happen. You have the power nate. You can abuse it all you want.


So in essence, you reported me for something that was weak.
 
Half the mods are MIA these days. I mean, SKA is still a mod and I think he's posted about 10 times in the last six months. Dude used to be all over the board and seemed like a pretty active moderator. Moe, (is she a MOD still?) she seems to check in every couple weeks or so. Some cali-something guy. I don't even really know who that is he posts so little.
 
I've said this before, but I think it bears repeating; other mods may be different, but I don't patrol the boards. I go to threads that interest me, and participate if I feel inclined. If something is a blatant violation of the rules, or particularly egregious, I'll act on it. Most of the time I just assume you guys are mature enough to be civil with each other. I figure, if there's a problem, someone will report it, and I'll deal with it then.

It is amusing to me, however, that when someone gets banned the mods take a load of grief for being unfair (almost regardless of the circumstances), but if nobody gets banned for a period of time, it's because we're slacking off on our duties.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I usually take both ways as said in jest ... except for the person who got the infraction/ban .. they sometimes seem to be seriously ticked.

I've only been upset about one infraction .. and that was only because I see it done all the time .. no biggie though.

If I actually had to read every post on this board, I would pluck my eyeballs out with flaming donkey *********.

Just because you see it done doesn't mean that person hasn't received an infraction for it as well. We don't normally edit the posts that result in infractions/warnings.

Yes, there are some mods who don't seem to be as active on the board as they used to be. Just because they don't post as much doesn't mean they're not lurking. And calijazz is no longer a mod. Hasn't been for a while now.

Understood. The infraction I'm referring to was putting asterisks to mask the 'bad' word but spelling out the portion of the word that was clean. I actually thought I was within board rules, but screwed up.

I'm the same way. It has to be real blatant before I report something. I think I've reported about 5 posts in my mod tenure.
 
Hey, I'm not asking for more active moderation, just seems some of the mods have stepped back without stepping down. I wouldn't be a mod if you paid me (mods don't get paid, right?).
