It's that kind of positive reinforcement bicostp makes that helps the spam stop. Welcome to the beginning.

Use the edit button dammit!!!!
And don't say that, your actions have gotten you on this list, so if you use the search, editbutton, and stickies to find your awnsers and not ask someone to buy you an 83 cent object because you don't want to put it on your credit card you wouldn't be there would you!

Hmmm, well it is a topic I must return on, to be less of a nuisance. I'm sorry about the DELETE posting. I was having an emotional breakdown. You great guys have given me a reason to go, with the exception of Lucretius

(meanie LOL). Lets forgive and forget *moderator to agree on forget and forgive or disagree*. Reply, thanks.

Editing your posts doesn't change what you said so just watch yourself from now on ok and you won't get banned.

I'd like to encourage everyone and anyone to post their ideas of the forum changes here. I'll try to compile and organize them and submit it all back to the community. If you don't want to post it here PM me or contact me on AIM. I'm on most nights.

I have a question: why aren't we allowed to delete posts? Every time someone accidently clicks the "Submit" button twice they have to call a mod? This is ridiculous!

Oh yeah, and whatever I said on the first page.

don't worry about it, we'll probably see it and take care of it anyway.

i think the mods only forum is probably the worst idea in the history of ideas. (hence the fascist comment).
i appreciate whoever condensed all the rules and regulations into one post at the top, though i don't like that we cant make suggestions anymore (no drug talk? what?! i thought this was a PG-13 forum, not sub-G rated.)
etc etc etc

i can give more suggestions of varying levels of sarcasm if prompted.

Why? And don't say "facist" in your reason. Give me one reason it could hurt. Quite frankly, I think that a forum for mods to disscuss issues and such would be extremely beneficial and help us do our job better.

You know, I remember a time when I went on this place and only talked about portbles, VGs, etc...I miss the good old days...

name a single issue that really and truly needs to be discussed in secret among those in power.

the reasons i think it would hurt have already been discussed. it all seems like a bit of power play on the part of the mods. already in the week or so since half the people on this board became mods, i've noticed a lot more of their weight being thrown around. more threads are being closed, more things are getting stickied, more people are getting put on watch lists. and to be honest, i haven't seen one ounce of actual incrased quality on the boards.

just my two cents.

I say that if someone does something uncalled for the mods for that forum decide if it is severe enough to step in. And if so then they warn the person and give them a mark of shame under their name like SPAMMER for instance (The interent equivalent of the corner

). If they persist then the mods for that forum decide if a ban is in order. By having the mods collaborate it allows for a wider opinion instead of feeling the wrath of one moderator you would be judged by all in charge of that forum. I say mods just contact over AIM (it is free for those who don't have it).
