Ugh, they seriously changed the title of this from "slutty" to "unbecoming of a lady"?

After it's been up eight freaking days?

Unbecoming of a lady?


Please kill me now. :rolleyes:

Somebody must have taken flak from unbecoming ladies!:eek:

How lame.

Hot Rodia did it. Just like he decides to moderate every single little inconsistincy he finds.

Yes, it does seem the power is going to Hot-Rodia's head.

Only to you.

It would be completely out of character for Kat, at least from where I sit. Though I do recall there were some word-substitutions going on prior to HotRodia being made a Mod, so I can't say. But it's all supposition, in any event. There's really no clear way for us to tell who's doing what at the Mod level.

Yeah, but notice the moderation has reached a critical point since Hot Rodia became a moderator. He's doing EVERYTHING that needs moderation, even the things that are usually left alone.

I hadn't even been online for the past 20 hours. It'd be a real trick for me to have changed anything until I got on about 30 minutes ago.

Please remember that the titles are under a more stringent rule than posts themselves -- the titles show up in sidebar, and NationStates is used in middleschools. It's nothing new for titles to get changed; if that bothers you, sorry.

It's not just the titles, Kat. It's everything. Hot Rodia is becoming a megalomaniac. If he sees ANYTHING wrong, even the slightest little HINT of a flame, he goes and punishes whomever he sees fit.

I'm glad he(/she?) didn't take the time to edit out every occurence in all the posts, that would be hellish, both for us, and for him(/her?)!
However, there is something to say against the word "slutty" being plainly displayed in the index and only being displayed once your (perverted) mind has shown interest by opening the thread...

Anyways...
FD It's okay if you hang out in the shadowy alleys, it means you can keep an eye out for our lovely chandelier. (And I trust that eye won't be to preoccupied with our young ladie's looks, but also enough for her safety ;))


Naliitr, If a mod decided "slutty" was to much un-pg13-ish for the index, that's his decision.
Lets not let this thread degrade into a "the mods are to censoring"-bash, it's come to far for that.

I can't believe it, you people posted a whole page while I was typing my post!
Naliitr, if you have doubts about a mod, isn't there some kind of official place to take that to, Instead of a totally unrelated thread that actually was doing very well until we had two whole pages of one-liner posts questioning mod politics, thereby ruining it?
(sentence intentionally too long to read at once, that'll make you stop and think about what I said

Actually, there is no place to take it to. I cannot complain about moderators, as the NS forums are not a democracy.

It's not that he's moderating WRONGLY, it's that he's far too overzealous in his job. Most mods, like Katganistan, and Tactical Grace before Hot Rodia came in, put humor in there moderating. Or at they least got straight to the point and said: "Idiot. Your thread is locked", or something to the sort. Hot Rodia has to go into this long monologue about how the thread is innappropriate, telling us where to read the rules, whle essentially reitirating them at the same time, and then once more explaining why the thread is innapropriate. Also, he has a tendency to edit every single little problem. Usually mods just decide to let that tiny hint of a flame pass, but not Hot Rodia. He has to make sure NSG is perfect.

Naliitr, I think your desire to discuss this side-issue would be better applied to a thoughful & well-considered thread of your own devising.

God, get over it already, will you? In your thread in the Moderation forum, Frisbeteeria told you where/how you can complain, so if you're THIS upset about someone who has been a moderator for maybe a couple of days, and if you're THIS insistent to blame any mod decision you don't agree with on him no matter if he actually did it or not, then why on earth don't you go and file that formal complaint, instead of posting post after post about it here?

1) You're doing so right now, and have been doing so for the last couple pages and one thread in Moderation. Looks like you can to me.

Finding your groove as Moderator of a forum and being able to uphold the rules and keep the posters happy is not nearly as easy as you seem to think.

Cut the new Mod some slack and try helpful feedback instead of grumbling if you think there might be a problem.

2. Well look at the way he moderates. It's not... Natural. If they should've assigned him to be a moderator, it should've been in one of the RP forums.
He's not a generalite, he's an RPer. He needs to moderate those he knows, not those he has no idea about. We need TG back...

I love how "slutty" was changed to "unbecoming of a lady".

He doesn't moderate wrongly, and he tells the posters that break the rules what the rules are and where to find them? I fail to see the problem.

If you know he's not a General forum poster then cut him slack as he gets used to the forum, pretty simple stuff.

HotRodia is sexy, in a very becoming way for a...umm, mod.

Dude, he's a Generalite from way back. He's the first cat that I've actually interacted with that became a mod (mostly with his puppet) and I never RP.

Really, man. Relax.

I find this in a way a little suspicious. If you have a problem with his moderating, either be open to him/her about it, or not. But don't go talking behind his/her back, all that does is spread negative vibes (if you'll excuse me the term)

I can only complain about a moderator abusing powers. Not about him being an idiot.

I have a feeling you are defining "over-use" as "abuse" to. Something I can relate to. There's such a thing as the letter of the law, and the spirit of the law. Usually, it's sufficient to moderate in the spirit, as moderating to the letter is way to much work and results in debates such as this one.
Over-zealous moderating is something you could politely inform Rodia of, and If he's a sensible person (which he must be, or else he wouldn't have been selected for moderating), he'll evaluate what you say, and take it into account.

Vacuumhead, shall we keep the non-platonical things out of this? This already has every potential to degrade into mindless quarelling without everyone shallowly hinting at physical appearances.

If Hotrodia is still in his work-in period, my support for lenience and kind-informing reinforces.

1. I think if I talked to him about it, he would just ban me.

2. Read above answer. I think that explains how I think about his "sensibility".

It's not just the titles, Kat. It's everything. Hot Rodia is becoming a megalomaniac. If he sees ANYTHING wrong, even the slightest little HINT of a flame, he goes and punishes whomever he sees fit.

Um, that's his job?

Um, that's his job?

When was the last time you or TG hunted down every single last problem, to the littlest one to the biggest one, and fixed it to the point of where it completely derails the topic?

Hot Rodia did it. Just like he decides to moderate every single little inconsistincy he finds.

No, he didn't.

I will be giving a ruling as soon as I finish reading all this.

We got a new mod because we decided we needed more eyes in the forum because people have been more abusive lately, and TG told us he was retiring.

The question is "when did we have time to take care of the forums properly"? The answer is we did not -- which is why we selected HotRodia to help us do this job.

I don't know what the heck your problem is with HotRodia, but since you've chosen to sit here flaming him all night without the decency to actually discuss it with him, you can have a weeklong vacation. We wouldn't tolerate you abusing another poster like this, and I am not going to let you get away with abusing HotRodia out of some idiotic idea that different rules of civility should apply simply because he's staff. Go throw your tantrum elsewhere.

Didn't people complain like this when other moderators joined up? It seems to be a growing trend...

:confused:

Strange. I actually didn't edit that thread title, and didn't see anything wrong with it. I rather liked that thread, and thought it was discussing a substantial issue.

And I generally don't Moderate a thread in General unless it's reported. I'm not going to waste my time trawling through every thread to find every poster who's flaming.

Also, I've been a regular in General since I started on this site, though not always under the name HotRodia.

Nalitir needs to chill eh? If HR did change it(which he said he didn't) then i'd support it anyways. You know, Max does offer this site, forum included, to Junior high students, I am sure their civics teachers don't want them on here reading about Sluts. -wipes the brown off his nose- and thats my two cents :)

I can only complain about a moderator abusing powers. Not about him being an idiot.I really expect some respect for the people doing the mod-job.(and for non-mods too)

And I demand some respect for the personal time the Mods give to our Community..

I can't help thinking there are far more constructive ways of pursuing a complaint if it's genuinely legitimate. Somehow, I get the impression that you have an axe to grind with HotRodia and THAT'S why you're complaining.

Wow, managed to get someone hating you in just a few days. You must be doing your job well, my friend. :D

Thank you, thank you. You guys tend to be much more tolerant of people heaping this level of abuse on a moderator than you would be with a general poster and it frustrates me. I'm glad you guys stopped it. Clearly, there was no interest in actually discussing the issue but just an interest in heaping abuse on a mod that in fact DIDN'T do what he was being accused of.

For those of us who appreciate a respectful and clean forum, I'm glad to see y'all stand up for yourselves the same way you stand up for us.

Amusingly, if HotRodia is really doing as much work as is claimed in this thread, then I say kudos and thanks for your hard work.

EDIT: To the obligatory brown-nosing comment, I call it like I see them. Mods do a job for us that helps us to be able to play here and they do it for free. I could do worse that appreciate charity.

As for Yavin, that was way back when Mods were still kinda new. He was Modded in the second batch, I believe, thus with Ineptia, Enodia, and Reppy (I think). Things were largely okay with him until it came out that he was only 14.

You would not believe the shitstorm that followed. Mostly, amusingly, by people in their twenties who didn't think they should be told what to do by some "kid". Thus, of course, demonstrating their own lack of maturity, while he demonstrated his own maturity by not saying much of anything in the thread.

It was completely ridiculuous, stupidly over-inflated, and it carried on for far longer than it had any right to. I believe [violet] eventually settled things by telling people to shut the hell up.

You would not believe the shitstorm that followed. Mostly, amusingly, by people in their twenties who didn't think they should be told what to do by some "kid". Thus, of course, demonstrating their own lack of maturity, while he demonstrated his own maturity by not saying much of anything in the thread.

It was completely ridiculuous, stupidly over-inflated, and it carried on for far longer than it had any right to. I believe [violet] eventually settled things by telling people to shut the hell up.

I forgot about that.

I was flamed on my second day for abusing my powers. Of course, the most amusing thing was that I didn't have any powers at all, not even the most basic of forum mod powers. Now that was funny.

seriously yall, yall just jumped over him and didnt even knwo the story :confused: how would you feel if people complained like crazy about you? Yall sound liek littel girls "he did this" "Hot rodia did that" "kat save us" bla:gundge:

Oh, the irony.

Wasn't that the thread with also the "Second Salad" comment? :p

And Hacks, funny story, thanks for telling :D

Not much different than this, really. This poster was upset about things that HotRodia didn't do. And considering that the poster was arguing that it was a correction that mods wouldn't have done before HR was modded, I guess a bunch of seasoned mods must have suddenly changed the way they do business because HR arrived on the scene. The charisma that child must have.

lamest moderation arguments ever -.-

...Well, as long as spamming isn't starting a single-sentence social thread or posting '+1,' why not.

*puts the cat in a box* Is it dead? Or is it not dead? =D

Seriously though, t'is about time we let this thread die, people. Even if it's got top-rate moderator silliness =p

It's in Moderation, I didn't even actually start it, yet still the thread is happily evolving into spam with a point.

Behold my awesome powers. :rolleyes: :p

Wow, managed to get someone hating you in just a few days. You must be doing your job well, my friend. :D

Yeah. Go me. :(

Hack...story time about Yavin next time I catch you on irc

Hotrodia, congrats, this is the fastest "hate thread" I've seen a mod recieve after being promoted to mod and you didn't even do anything for it either :p

Wow. I guess I'm just that talented.

I'm jealous! I've been a mod for like, 3 years and I don't think I've ever had a disgruntled/obsessed player on my case like that! Certainly not in such a short span of time.

Ah well. Perhaps our little hot-tempered friend will regain use of his intellect when he returns from his forced vacation.

.... Wow. Three years and I still have any optimism left?
