Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

You win if you get the reference.

There's been some changes in board management. The admins are less active because they're in college or working, and many of the mini-mods have either cut way back on their forum time or have fallen off the face of the earth. Here's what happened so far, and will happen soon: we added an admin (mainly as a title and ban lackey), and we'll start shifting back to a universal moderator setup. (That is, every mod has power in every forum.) This should help solve some of the problems we've been having, like forums with no active mods and the list of people who need titles.

Is there anything else we forgot about? Discuss/suggest!

Note: DO NOT ask for custom titles (unless you're waiting for a "portablizer" title and have finished a portable), request for someone to be banned, or ask to be a mod here. Thanks.

Not sure how you managed to do that - but sure, I'm all for changes.

We had a math note titled "Ch-ch Changes" on the day we had a very stuttery supply teacher. It was one of the few sentences he didn't stutter on, oddly enough.

Anyways, I want to know the reference please!

And I am all for the universal mod idea, as long as the mods don't post things they're not sure about without stating so in a forum that they aren't too knowledgeable on. Because seeing "Moderator" means something. People might take everything they say to be 100%. Other than that, great!

Any mods getting booted? Do tell!

I think it's a good idea. I don't see any power-drunk fools here. I trust you all

Something I wonder is, what is up with Luc? He came back for like a week or something, and then left!

Is it to the Chia Pet commercials? Ch-ch-ch-chia!

Glad all mods are getting full power, the mini-mod system kinda fails when theres only a few active mods.

No, it's to that 80's song that goes "Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes"

Something I would like would be the ability to lock/delete/move our own threads. Is that possible? That way we won't have to wait for a mod to do it for us.

Oh, well I plead ignorance on the count that I'm not into 80's music and the fact that Chia Pets are cool, though I never had one.

Not going to happen.

As much as it sucks for some of our more responsible members, this won't happen, seeing as people could delete evidence of rule infringement at their own discretion.

You don't trust us? So we will always have to wait 1 hour-10 days before our mistakes get locked, deleted or moved?

It's not just me, it's a general consensus of the administration. It's nothing personal.

We've had this discussion numerous times; and to answer your question, you're correct in saying that there are SOME users here I would not trust with said powers. Also, take into consideration that the changes we'll be making here with the moderation staff will drastically decrease the time it takes for us to clean up all the crap that's lying around, so you'll be hard-pressed to find a thread that's not taken care of in a timely fashion.

Turn and face the crowd?

Global Mods are always a good thing. I'm a mod on another forum and know how annoying it can be seeing things I can fix in other forums but can't.
