Advertisment Mods

You guys need to step it up a notch or two... or ten.

Seriously, put the moderation back on. There are some fucking stupid ads in there that should never have been posted.

When did the standards drop?

I see the rules, the problem is that the mods are not making the members follow them :(:

You don't have to be a moderator to report posts. If you see spam just report it.

even reporting them sometimes the mods will skip it

L0lz@op Y you want mod so bad??

Have you even bothered using the report button? Because if you haven't you've no right to call out the staff like that and talking about standards being dropped.

We aren't machines we are human. We have lives to attend to as well. We don't just sit down on ragezone 24/7 waiting for threads to pop up to delete and people to punish.

By the way how the hell is this a suggestion. Should I complain about subscribers not posting in the right section anymore?

Geez when did the standard drop!

@Scratch, Impossible for a moderator to miss a report.

No it's not true now stop spreading ridiculous lies.

Unless you know how mod reports work here I don't know how you can come to that conclusion.

A lot of those threads are atleast a day old, meaning that if a mod had taken the time to just browse through the section they would have found them. The reports thing is getting old, it seems the be the answer for everything. You can't rely solely on them.

How is it old when it's rarely used? All of those threads, if reported, would have been dealt with the very same day they were posted. Were they reported? Nope.

Like I said, mods have lives, we don't sit down and browse the forum 24/7 to ninja threads. The forum is huge, and we are human, we make mistakes and overlook things. We rely on reports to help us do or job when we are away or when we miss things.

you must be kidding me really. Go check the KOTH contests and than come reply to my post. Zeaos did a KOTH i think it was KOTH #2 and someone's entry was not following the rules
the rules were written in the main thread saying that the entry MUST have "KOTH #2" as a text and the entry of that someone had GOTF instead of KOTH than mental said me to stop bitching about a typo. rules are rules, made to be followed, Zeaos just skip that rule and he just ignored his error, now don't come say im bitching because if Zeaos had actually a good way to think about the contest he actually would receive the entry from the PM, he would check the entry to see if its following the rules, if not he would have pm'd the member back and tell "Hey you must edit your entry because its not following the rules" than the problem would be solved but no, now in the KOTH#5 that is live atm there is the same typo shit, 2nd time the same rule to be broken. WTF!?

1- The mods are not forcing the members to follow the rules, they are too friendly
2- members are making fun of the mods by breaking the rules because they know the mods are friendly enough to let a typo rule to be skipped.

A mod should think about every problems he can face while hosting an event which Zeaos failed at doing that.
But finally ChewBecca have the full control of the whole contest and she's going to change the way of this contest, imo the contest should be wiped again so everyone could get a fair win, and please, don't come with the argument that this is not gonna happen for the reason of the time spent of the designer to turn into a waste of time because its not, a designer will never be wasting time doing a sign a wallpaper or w/e he makes, he is just improving own skills by making something.

But yeah do w/e you think is the best. thats my opinion i just ask you to accept because its my view and im not changing it.

Mental does whatever he wants he's the head honcho here.

Do you still see Zeaos as a moderator? Cause I sure don't.

Also your post has nothing to do with reports. It has to do with rules and it just looks like your peeved because a moderator and MentaL made a different decision on the same problem.

I know that mental does w/e he wants thats why i said to do w/e he thinks the best. and yeah Zeaos got banned and demoted for some reason that i don't know. and i used this thread to write what i just wrote because i saw a link between the 2 issues, since I've reported the rules being broken and nothing happened. making it unfair to the members who are joining the KOTH contest.

but yeah i think im just wasting my time trying to make some contest's rules being followed strictly. But yeah i just see this unfair :/:

The excuse has been used since before you registered and probably since before I registered, but I have seen it a lot lately in response to questions similar to Ron's.

I agree mods do have lives (although most don't and we all know), but logging on at least once a day to check their respective sections should be required. Some of the threads are two or three days old, meaning they were either missed by a mod relying on reports or by a mod who simply did not do their job.

The private server section is huge. I don't expect every moderator to sit down and read through every single thread posted just to root out the bad ones.

This is why we have reports.

just got warned because of trying to make rules being followed at KOTH, I defend my point = i get warned

Hence the over-reliance on reports.

Are there not different moderators for different sections? And if not, then where is the logic behind having the same few people in charge everywhere when it is ineffective as Ron has pointed out.

Give a moderator a section and if they cannot handle that ONE, then they don't deserve to have anymore do they?

Its not over reliance? Over reliance would be just doing only what is reported and that's definitely not what happens as far I see with deleted threads.

But what is not reported is not done, as shown by Ron.

I'm not trying to fight btw just having a discussion. Actually wanted to create a new thread for the outerworld as well but seeing as though this thread has served it's purpose I am considering hijacking it and getting a quick answer.

How can you guys possibly complain about moderators not cleaning up threads, but refuse to use the report system in the same breath? Come on... Most people on here don't use the report system. With how big this forum is, you'd be damn well surprised at how few reports we actually get a day. Stop whinging about things if you're not going to do anything about them, yourself... Have some common sense -.-

@Scratch: Stop trying to use 1 incident as the basis of your argument. The fact is, the typo was let slip BECAUSE IT WAS A TYPO, simple as. Please move on. Thank you.

@I Rule Mu: You know very well that just because a thread is not reported doesn't mean it won't get cleaned... I can guarantee that a lot of unreported threads get dealt with. Please stop trying to make out that the moderators simply don't bother checking threads ever.

Personally, I think we need to remind our users what the report system is for and that it is there to be used. Until people can start using it, threads like these are pointless and serve as nothing more than a poor excuse for members to try and bitch at mods for invalid reasons. Thread should be closed, IMO.

this 1 incident was repeated twice, still ignoring the mistake and lets move on with this skip? its just unfair, be my guest and take my place and than think about that.

You're still not getting it... Your report(s) were dealt with, so if the thread/post stayed, obviously the mod who dealt with it thought it was an invalid report. Ergo, you still don't have an argument. This thread is about threads that violate the rules not being taken care of. You're just complaining about a rule being bent BY THE MODERATORS in a competition... Those 2 are quite different things. Why you feel it necessary to carry on with an issue that had been dealt with a while ago, I don't know, let alone one you have absolutely no say in.

But I don't know that, and judging on what Ron has just posted no one can count on that. I am not trying to make it seem like anything, I am just saying if something did not happen there must be a reason and so far the reasons have been excuses. Stop getting offended so easily.

I am just saying you are here to actively search through your section and be proactive, not reactive. What all of you are saying is that everyone should report stuff and you will take care of it, and the thing I am deriving from that is that the majority of the responsibility lies with the community and not with the moderators. If this is the case, then half the mods seem superfluous.
