Well, like we said in your Hello post, we have moderators. Many people view the moderators as idiotic, vindictive, annoyances that hide the posts that they want to be up; even if they aren't needed for the community.
Kruncher and I are just venting a little bit.
I encourage you to go have a look at that log, just so you know what we're doing. ;)
People have complained about mods for the few months that we've been here but no one has ever brought a specific post to debate as to weather it should or shouldn't be up. My offer still stands unaccepted.
Also, most members have no idea what was accomplished my the mods during incredibly intense spam attacks on this site, we were that fast to hide that garbage. I suspect Aubrey finally cought the culprit. There was a hint afterward in a comment left by a formerly active member saying something like "I just want to be friendly and help make Mars better.".
The moderation is necessary for all websites. They are stop to promotion ща spam. A lot of cheap
resume were written by different authors about this problem.
That would be either FC's or my user comment mod code. All comments on the forum have to be removed using a javascript hack as there is no native feature to do so (Aubrey just hasn't gotten around to doing it).
Could you add a "go to last page" thing? That would be nice as I would like to see the first moderator actions ever without having to go through all 105 pages...
I believe Aubrey picked these specific people to be mods. because most of them were around since the day Mars Explorer was created. That means they have a lot of experience and wisdom for the forum and the game.
It's kinda hard to believe that they were once n00bs. lol
But if I were to recommend someone to Aubrey, it would be one of the CIC board members, including me.
Not quite. PointYBagelS was not there for all that long when he was instated as a mod (because ~5 months isn't really all that long). He registered around November 2009 and I think most other mods are registered since 2008.
Gotta ask if someone quits mars forever, does her get replaced. Or do they have a choise to quit. And is there a pole on the forum or get pmed or recommended. (lol i asked alot of questions sorry :P)
