Thread: The all new: Ask a moderator about the forum & rules

    Could a nice mod correct the title in this thread, please?

    It's quite a common question and the OP has misspelled the keyword so it won't come up in searches.

    Dear mods

    i dont think this banning series is very productive

    you ban people for defending there ideas and work maybe its a better idea to change the attitude of the people that are whining

    if you can say nothing nice don't say Notting ( Will Smith )

I simply have seen worse from mods)
    I have one question too: Why is it impossible for some to finally settle the 'wld427 issue'? His oh-so-terrible ban has been reversed into a 7 days suspension already, so why all that fuss about it?

    By now it's obvious that his post which caused the ban was simply to attack Sickboy because he got some issue with him for whatever reason. Clearly a violation of §1.

    The posts you are referring to are not ignored, they probably were just not noticed by us - we do not check every thread and post made here.
    And the forum rules do not apply to moderators.


    Edit: Your edit came too late.

    I strongly advise each of wld427 fans to stop wasting our time.

    Just going to ask a question and i want to try and be careful how i ask it because i don't want to offend or upset any of the moderators here, but i just have some concerns that annoy me with the way some of you deal with posts on this forum....

    1. Everytime a member makes a thread, does it cost the site money? are you charged for them? reason i ask is the way some of the mods close topics seems like you are in competition for clsoing topics. it looks like there are more closed topics on this forum than open ones.

    2. as a mod do you have the ability to merge, and move topics or is it just lock them? again reason i ask is some topics are locked simply because another thread already exists or someone posted something in the wrong place. so rather than moving or merging these said topics they just get locked, meaning you end up with a locked topic and a duplicate topic open up somewhere else, this just seems lazy to me, speaking for myself who moderates many other sites.

    3. in the offtopic section it seems threads really do get closed for the most petty reasons and in some cases closed because a sole mod doesn't agree with the thread, and would have been left open if he hadn't closed it. i remember someone posting a question about why armoholic went down and a mod came on and quite rudely said "why is this our problem?" then locked it. The original poster never said it was bis's problem or anything like that, just asked in the offtopic section if anyone else knew something about a different site.

    Thats all i have to say i do hope i haven't opened a can of worms or upset any of you mods, but i am on a lot of forums and i just think sometimes it can be a bit overkill with the mod topic closures here.

    1. Yea, around 0,0001 € for the cpu cycles needed and writing the data to a HDD

    2. i guess locking something is faster/easier than moving tons of posts

    If a new thread gets locked then because there is already an existing one and to prevent cluttering of the forums. It simply makes no sense to have the same discussion going on in several threads in several forums.

    Yes, we usually merge such threads but only if the target thread does not turn into a mess of old and new posts after. And yes sometimes it's simply faster to lock a thread than checking and moving it.

    Another sample for threads are subject to be closed are the ones which are simply created to get faster answers or because people were too lazy to search for the existing ones (ACE2 or addon request ones).

    As for the lazyness: May I remind you that each of us here is a volunteer? We moderate the forums in our free time - after work and school. We have every right to be lazy.

    Someone asks that about every other week. My guess is that the answer will still be no.

    I'm not getting emails from the forum any more. The ones that tell me if a subscribed thread has a reply or if I have a PM.

    Could someone feed the email server hamster?
