I doubt any of you value any of our opinions, thats plain to see, but obviously I am not the only one that thinks what I have said.

I like Rikpal, I'm sorry that he chooses not to hang out here anymore. I've been to other sites and find them boring. They have good tech and most of the members are familiar, don't get me wrong I'm not knocking any other sites. Just not exciting enough for me. | |

Our mods work very hard, do they catch everything, no, do I expect them to, no, that is why we have the "report this post" button, so everyone can work as a community to make the site better. Quote:

As always we are open to suggestions and we work hard to make this a great site. Will spammers get on the site and post porn pictures every now and then? yes, will people get upset and say bad words? yes, will there be people that don't get along with each other? yes. But we are always working towards making the site better as a whole. My personal cell phone number is posted all over on this forum, if you can't find it feel free to pm me or email me for it. I am always open to hearing peoples ideas. Quote:
Just so everyone know we understand we are shorthanded on mods, we have been working hard for the last few weeks to fix this problem, and you will see several new mods added soon. | ||||||||||||

e: f,b by the man himself.  Said a few of the same things I did too. Keep up the good work and if you need someone who browses a lot outside of tax season, let me know.  Quote:
As far as I'm concerned, they're doing their jobs fairly well. Sure, we could use a mod or 2 more around here, but that's up to them to implement. It is a very difficult thing to chose and train more moderators. People *really* don't understand what it takes. I have to say, Wheelchair, I would probably not want to be on a board that you moderate, based on this thread alone. You seem like a fairly level headed guy otherwise, but your "think about the children" argument sets off my "batsh!t insane" alarms. That's years of making my living running forums and large websites speaking. Hey, be glad, I could be a moderator around here. My switches between pedantic postings and hazing would go over real well with the masses.  Honestly, I would probably delete a crap load of posts rather than haze them.

I know this won't mean much coming from a noob like myself, but I like to think I've been around forums enough to know what I'm talking about.. If you don't like the way the forum is run, leave. Your part of someone elses forum, you don't own part of the forum. No matter how much money you have put towards a star you don't run the place. The owner of the forum runs the place. Would you walk into a bar and start telling the owner how to do things, how to run his establishment? I like to think of the money I've payed for a star goes towards getting me into all the free giveaways, being able to use a custom title and avatar and helping with the upkeep of the forum....in no way do I think that paying $20 a year gives me the right to run the forums and tell people how to do things and when to do them. I see that money as a helpful tool that the owner can use to keep costs down on running the place. I've been a mod/admin at a popular photoshop forum for quite a few years now and I'd like to think I've seen it all. I've banned people for being idiots, I've let people stay for being idiots, hell I've even turned a hated member into a mod/admin along side myself...the owner of the forum basically left the forum in my hands for most of my time over there and I ran the forum. I tried to be fair...sometimes I've had a bad day and tired of reading the BS that spews from behind the keyboard and just started deleting accounts. The owner of the forum never questioned my ability and my reasoning behind the things I did, always backed me, and I'm sure this forum is not far off from the same. The decision is left up to the person/people in charge and the trusted few that are given "the power" are expected to use their best judgement to handle business. I'm sure that if the owner of the site saw things weren't going right he/she could make some changes if they thought it needed to be done. On a personal note, I like RCC the way it is. As much as I've seen I don't think I've ever saw a mod/admin do anything I disagree with...I think I'll keep this place just the way it is(because I have that option???)... |

You can also set sites with "Parental control" just like you can with your TV. If you are affraid of your kids getting on this site to read "Poopie" or read threads about how they may wipe. put a parental lock on it. It's funny cause I have to unlock my tv for my kids to watch the news for class projects.  I've also seen things on the disney or cartoon chanels worse than what I've read on this site. (for the most part) |

I see it as the owners right to have an idiot for a mod if they so choose. Would I rather these guys get the red star taken away? Yes, but it is not my place to tell the owners how to run their board. Quote:

Sorry man, i thought you came in and left without a word. But you are twisting what I said. I guess I should have added that this IS A PRIVATE FORUM. There for it is up to the mods and you to have it the way you want it. I just did not think that you wanted this place like this. Yes I do enjoy being able to chat about things on here and maybe a little friendly banter.... but there's a lot going on here that simply should not be. Someone telling someone else to go jack off their dad should be BANNED. I don't care how long but he should be banned! You totally missed a lot of my points Jason. When I was talking about attitudes of the people running this place, your name was not included. It was NOT a personal dig. I appologize if it came across that way. But you have to agree with me the attitudes of the people in charge are, this is how they like it. (With a few more mods of course) As for the getting payed to be a mod, It was simply a fact to show the mods arguing with me that it is indeed a job, I don't care how many hours a day you do it. I have ONLY stated the facts with a few small opinions mixed in. If that makes me a drama queen then what ever makes you happy man. | |
