Moderation/Administration chatter

So, wait.
Rooks is really Donald Trump? Make FFXIAH Great Again!
No, just wanted to know why we can't block mods and refrain to PM defusing instead of public viewing ego grows.
Kojo on occasion does PM warn people (at least for me).

Because telling people to cool it, stay on topic, or to stop with the personal attacks without having to directly target someone, is such a power trip.
My god, the horrors of actually having to moderate a forum! Bloodrose said: » Because telling people to cool it, stay on topic, or to stop with the personal attacks without having to directly target someone, is such a power trip. When did that ever work? is...

And whats the count on getting ***even worse by public viewing? Asura.Azriel said: » So i dont get an answer from a real source? What? On "why can't I block mods?" You were given one. cause supposedly mods are real people and have real people needs and real people jobs too
or something like that, so they cant insta reply to everything . Asura.Azriel said: » So i dont get an answer from a real source? Rooks said: » Asura.Azriel said: » Why cant we block Mods? Because in ages past, there were cases where things in a thread got out of control, and a moderator would attempt to defuse it/warn people; only the mod was blocked, so said warning was ignored, and people involved ended up suspended/topicbanned when it might have just ended with a talking to. If thats your answer, so be it.

So anyone with an opinion, or reasoning to your question you don't like, is somehow not a real source?
Lovely. You were given an answer why it isn't done, and no longer continues to be done. But in all seriousness, if you are really that offended by "reading the BS", that somehow, mysteriously and magically equates into a mod or admin going into a "power trip" for performing their duties, instead of the BS that is general politics and religion thread discussions, the internet, is not a safe place to be. Edit: So far, the count on things getting worse via public viewing, is 3-4 people, tops. one of which has been banned repeatedly for continued infractions.

(Well, bar. Our names weren't green back then.) Asura.Kingnobody said: » So, wait. Rooks is really Donald Trump? No, I've never had to declare bankruptcy. Asura.Azriel said: » No, just wanted to know why we can't block mods and refrain to PM defusing instead of public viewing ego grows. I've used both methods, as the circumstances require. If it's a whole thread turning into a riot, it's public. If it's one or two people, PM. Like everything moderation related, it's a judgment call. Anyway, you can't block mods because public messages are a useful tool. If someone abuses that tool or privilege, that's a different discussion, but "tossing around a green bar in a thread" is the least of the concerns to be had with a mod gone rogue (which is why everything is logged quite heavily now!). Does that answer your question? Anna Ruthven said: » As soon as your name turns green, you learn that there will be people who hate you simply because your name is green. I can't name names but there were people I got along with who turned to resent me as soon as my bar and name turned green. (Well, bar. Our names weren't green back then.) shut up girlboy. also, i thought this thread was a petition started to give me full control over the forums. how disappointing.
