Basically, I'm tired of keeping this place organized, so you get to be the example of sorts. So maybe, just maybe, more threads will be created where they are supposed to be.
Perhaps staff should recruit some additional lower-ranking mods to cleanup rogue threads. I'm sure some people would be up for that. It would mean you wouldn't have to sting the majority of the userbase with warnings and it'd avoid threads like
this being created.
Agreed. There's enough good members on the board to trust with moderation powers. That's another option in this.
Yes I'm going to still be doing my work on FF7. Right now seeing if I can take Yuffies two trap areas and copy past one over the other and using the remains of the other one to essentially use as a new map if I can figure out where to put it and how to access it. Inner programming is kicking my butt. Floor mapping I'm somewhat figuring out.
But I will also be setting up a campaign on
-ideas and suggestions to help with the workload on moderators; then getting those into action
-looming over moderators shoulders and being a 2nd opinion. Alittle more on fatbear then the others.
I've noticed it with some other threads people have made where mods move or delete it though it seemed to match the catagory just cause the dude was typing poor english, or the moderator doesn't get the goal of the thread. I think that moderators should consider giving a chance and making a warning post on a thread of why they think the thread should be moved/deleted. That way the OP can answer if they agree with the moderators decision or if they disagree state their case.
I know this is not a democracy, I know the moderators have been put in charge for a reason. But don't spit in the face of the site members while you're doing you're duties. It'll just piss everyone off. Think of it as being the good boss that everyone wants to work for versus being the douchebag boss everyone hates. You may get the job done, but people will constantly be looking at you as a jerk boss. Can you get the job done and not step on as many toes. Yes. It just requires a few extra steps around the subject.
Today while I'm working on things I'll be making a list on what my goals should be on this site splitting it between working on ff7, helping sort out any messes on the board, and my own personal goals. I'm going to have to do some things like at the bottom of every OP I make in my threads write a paragraph summary of why it belongs there.
Speaking of which fatbear still has not explained why he believes my previous thread didn't belong in tech related. He stated what does belong in tech related, I told him how my thread matches the terms, and yet fatbear doesn't answer. You know, just sayin.
Really my whole analstick on this event is fatbear did not do his job. From my point of view, he took a thread that had nothing wrong with it or where it was, moved it, and put a watched status on me. Labeling me basically as someone who is trying to ignore board policy. I accepted that on the dark ansem affair only cause I deserved it then. This time, didn't do the crime now I'm doing the two week time and have it in my record. Is it serious, not really, just a nonsense warning that will have no effect later. I'm just pissed that fatbear is not giving case as to why he is correct, gave him three chances of that and he has still failed to provide evidence that in some way I deserved his slap to the face. Not only that but that he thinks it's just right to willy nilly do this stuff without consulting or assisting the the people he's "cleaning up after".
Why am I coming down hard on fatbear. I'm very tired of seeing mods that just use their functions without taking the time and using the basic functions of double checking before you cross a street. So fatbear, it's not just about you, I'm just making you a sign to any other mods.
Oh and I explained a logical reason for my actions, where's yours.
