Black_Angel Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Whoever made the point about mods in different timezones - that's true. I think all the mods we have right now are American. Maybe an Aussie mod? If Stenners was still here he could be a Brit mod We don't need anymore admins. And being green isn't such a big deal, it's just a colour like :| i still love you, girl from mars.

Clogz Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 The site is recieving alot more attention now that it has in the past six to seven months...so I am happy with our current staff. And everyone, please, don't make inhuman requests of the LPF staff. They cannot possibly sit at thier computer screens every waking moment of thier lives (not to say some of them don't cut it close), and they can't possibly track down every bad member, and every bad thread. The problems you are talking about stem from issues with member involvement/cooperation. See a bad thread? Report it. See a bad member? Report them. Doing those two things alone will help out the staff greatly. And just so the newer members in this thread know, I was a Mod once so I do know how it is. And then I felt chills in my bones / The breath I saw was not my own I knew my skin that wrapped my frame / Wasn't made to play this game XXI
shadowfax1007 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I dont think we need new mods/admin. The ones we have at the moment are fine. The spam issues arent their fault. And such an issue requires community and staff action. As for your choices for new mods/elites. I think they are based on personal preference and friendship, rather then who really deserves it. There are alot more members on here, who have been around alot longer and as active as those members you listed. But yeah, current staff is fine, although I wouldnt mind being an Elite sometime [broken External Image]:http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/2574/brissigyp1.jpg [broken External Image]:http://card.mygamercard.net/sig/shadowfax1007.png
Sygy Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 This is my opinion. (which probably is going to sound dumb, but ill put it forward anyways). Instead of the Mods and Adim having all the power, because i honestly dont think its fair that when it comes to decision such a who becomes a new elite that they get the say. Why dont we have like little elections. For example, after a certain period of time we rotate who is an elite depending on how well behaved they were as an elite. e.g. whether we think they spammed to much and whether we think they were just out ragiously rude. That way, everybody can be an elite for a while. If they get too big for there boots they just wont be voted for in the next election and they go back to blue. And, the same will be done for mods and adims. i think its fair and democratic. iam mors sola fuga est [broken External Image]:http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9977/n76430001741552817731hb2.jpg
Hahninator Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 ok your right but why did it take so long for the spam threads to be deleted in general talk i mean there is still a college girls one from a few days back like peet said making more mods wont hurt any one and if you dont wanne do that least give some of the active and loyal members elite... just a thought i mean i just wanne do what best fo lpf and its members :thumbsup: more mods WILL hurt. there's such a thing as 'too much power'. I think the mods now are great. You have two totally different kind of people and we both take care of what needs to be done. I like to be more open and post a lot while still working, while Victim likes to remain behind the scenes, which allows him to do more
GraDoN Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 ok ok ok your prob right.... then make a few more elite... that really cant hurt and it would motivate more members to become active cause everybody want elite... right? http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/095443c5f5914cdd05b1d389456c201e.jpg http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8df3638f80a4f010e06ef2c959f426e8.gif http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/fe80ab99471398f0ef121d8f90c31038.jpg
Hahninator Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 maybe. there was a discussion not long ago in the staff forum about just totally getting rid of elites because it seemed unfair and some members don't need to be elites, etc. like they were saying the whole system is messed up. who knows we might make a new thread and discuss it since it's become a hot topic lately in this section.
Person Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I'm gonna have to disagree on there dude. Im happy at the position im in right here. Just a member...don't really have to worry about anything but posting and having fun. Let the people who are mods and admins do their job...they know they have to do their job. Also, they aren't robots...they arent online 24/7 so uhhh GIVE THEM A BREAK.
GraDoN Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 and about the spam cant u make it that the system pics up the spammin bots cause they never say anything in their profile like "live shows" "hobbies" "bands i like" or anything.... that could also work.. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/095443c5f5914cdd05b1d389456c201e.jpg http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8df3638f80a4f010e06ef2c959f426e8.gif http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/fe80ab99471398f0ef121d8f90c31038.jpg

Hyper Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 hmm well i actually think the community choosing mods [ that are agreeable with admins ] is a good idea. cuz then instead of nobody listening tot he mods, they probably will. i don't know tho, i don't think it's ever been done really. could have, not sure tho. but it's kinda like a presidency, voted for by the people, then they can't get too bitchy. they chose em.

Greyfoxx Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I like the idea of people on the fourm deciding of who they want to Mod or Admin, it's a good idea. Then they will listen, like Hyper said. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/597b7053e7f6b9db3d3e47081db54c76.jpg youre so freaking gothic fox' date=' just wait till you meet the emo me. youre like redheaded vampira or something[/quote'] http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/aac84d56c4349b6631041cd70d25f813.gif
Victim Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 But then that is just a popularity test.. Not everyone will vote for who the think are the BEST for the job, they will vote for WHO they like the most. It could be a good idea, or a dangerous one.. Then you have to look at, does this new voted in person get along with the current staff, sometimes it's not so.. whereas if the person is choosen by the Mods and Admins, it ensures that they have complete trust in them and that they all get along. For example.. You may not like one of the mods now, but the staff must of trusted that person, and believed outta what 6,000 memebers they were the BEST for the job..But what if so and so, is your favorite person and has caused hell recently, but you were one his/her side, so you vote for them, that will cause interstaff trouble.. Just my 2 cents. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/305186a372bb061b2ab713febbdc560a.jpg
Greyfoxx Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Well what about this. The people of LPF pick a few people who they think would be the BEST for the job, then the Mods and Admins think it over and choose from who the people want, then they can decide if the person will be fair and get along with everyone. That way, both the Admins/Mods are happy and the people would be happy. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/597b7053e7f6b9db3d3e47081db54c76.jpg youre so freaking gothic fox' date=' just wait till you meet the emo me. youre like redheaded vampira or something[/quote'] http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/aac84d56c4349b6631041cd70d25f813.gif
shadowfax1007 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 its still a popularity contest though. although i like the idea of voting in theory, in practise it rarely works. take for example my school, at the end of last year, we had an election for different roles in the school. one popular girl got the position of head of the student council, and yet, she had never been to one meeting, when there were plenty of other candidates who had been to them, and were far more qualified.

diana Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Foxx's idea is pretty good... Anyway, I also kinda think we don't need any more mods and admins...I appreciate the job that the current ones are doin...so, I guess I think we should leave the decision up to them...they deserve it... And when they think some of us member deserve somethin more...I believe they'll do so... About the elites...I'm honoured I was mentioned but...only the time will tell...and the "great power" people... http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8b479714c2981449a34f1f582adc8fb2.jpg ...ljubim...<3
Hahninator Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 the only change I think we need to make right now is to make Hyper a mod lol
GraDoN Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 who is qwest? hes admin and its the first time ive ever seen him here O_0 and i dont see hyper here alot either 0_o http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/095443c5f5914cdd05b1d389456c201e.jpg http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8df3638f80a4f010e06ef2c959f426e8.gif http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/fe80ab99471398f0ef121d8f90c31038.jpg

Greyfoxx Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 bwah, i really don't care if we get new ones or not, i'm just happy i was mentioned by the people to get "upgraded" to Mod status. I don't care if i am or not, i'm happy being an Elite. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/597b7053e7f6b9db3d3e47081db54c76.jpg youre so freaking gothic fox' date=' just wait till you meet the emo me. youre like redheaded vampira or something[/quote'] http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/aac84d56c4349b6631041cd70d25f813.gif
