Should a semi-spammer become a Mod?

24-10-2003, 02:41
They can seperate good spam from bad spam, and then the people with high post counts have a say with the Mods.

Examples of a good semi-spammer Mods:

Norm((I'm not kidding, I think))
RR
and so on....

I don't know about that. . .
Parratoga and Nyborg are the only people with a really high post count from the General whom I think would make a good mod. Norm I do not think really has time, and I do not know Rouging Rouges.

Mabye, but there are others, that have time. Mods would just have to search a bit for them, and they could find them.

No, and the always wouldn't want a Satanist as a mod either, I happen to be both. I was just pleased that someone mentioned my name. :D

She shuts up about it for the most part, that is what is important.
Neut is a staunch rightish, and Hack is pretty far right too, but you would not believe hw hard it was for me to find enough pieces to prove it. Stephistan on the other hand is a leftist who usually shuts up about politics, and therefore is a well liked mod.

Behavior and competance, not worldviews, determine the modliness of a player.

In any case, the current staffing needs of the site are filled and the mods and admins are not considering new appointments at present, according to Neut.

I don't know if Neut told us to shut up about it. I wasnt here if he did, so on with the thread. :D

Kandarin is right. Neut locked the "Paratoga for Mod" thread because the mods are not currently looking for help.

Huh?

I like mods who kick back in the generals and aren't all up-tight. I bet they all have puppets who are in the General, we just don't know who they are ...

Spam is not like Cholestrol.

I don't know about that. . .

Don’t really know Nyborg, seen him/her is all. I guess if Qa says they are alright, they are. Tho I think Qa is a pretty good player as well, to add to the list.

Doesn’t matter what the mods will like. I think Max would be open to such an appointment, though only if they were exemplarily beyond their own political beliefs, much like every other player worthy of modhood.

And that, my friend, is why you'll never be a mod.

Keep telling yourself that...

Of course, if people wouldn't break the rules, there'd be no need for Moderators. But... that would require "personal responsibility".

*sigh* any form of responsibility seems to be anathema to a large percentage of this site.

:idea: Moderators are very helpful in keeping out obscene, illegal, threatening, malicious, defamatory, and spam.... but censorship of unpopular ideas is not a reaction to a lack of "personal responsibility" it's just an immature reaction that harms society far more than it could ever help...

Odd.

Several people on this site manage to post "unpopular ideas" without resorting to flaming, and haven't had their nations deleted.

In other words, "Maybe it's not them, it's you."
