in the last 2 forums i have joined the mods/owner seem to have come down with a power madness , giving out warnings , banning members, deleting threads that they do not like etc etc , it seems to be catching on here ;)

You guys don't realize these mods are pretty forgiving compared to other mods elsewhere...try the lx...forums.com or 300cforum...z.com....those places have some CRAZY MODS!

The Mods here are ridiclous. It seems to me that there is a huge inconsistency on warning and bans. When it rains it pours I guess. But IMO I think that any bans on this site will have much more affect than a forum with a broader subject. This is a Jeep SRT8 forums, so we are going to have a limited amount of people who will visit this site, and when we do get people who contribute and bring life to this forum, and boom they get banned and others are getting warning of ban's for sticking up for a fellow member.
This sucks MB's

There membership is far greater than ours, thus there will be more infractions going on. This is a speacialty site.

so a post or thread has to be reported BEFORE you take action ??

Matt McKenzie
10-29-2008, 11:34 AM
Because a lot of these guys manage many forums they cannot search everything, so you have to report the post with the little [!] button on the top right side of that post, right by what number post it is.

Unless I happen upon it, yes. I dont just administrate this forum, I have 20some others that I also am responsible for. With several key people leaving the company recently (Ekool and El Calor are no longer with the company), Im pretty much it on most of the forums Ive been administrating for years. As such, I dont have time to sit here and read every thread on every forum Im responsible for. If it gets reported, I investigate it. You guys arent children, you know the rules, you know what's allowed.. for the most part you shouldnt need me looking over everything you post.

Im a firm believer in minimal moderation.. I have to work within the rules Autoforums has laid out for me to work in. On my own forums, which are not Autoforums owned, I rarely delete anything or ban anyone but I dont have to because people know the rules and stay within them.

I deal with about 100 reported posts a day and try to work my regular job, which is not these forums. I wish I had time to read more and interact with the community more but I dont. Im sure at some point Autoforums will send in someone else to oversee this forum. Id be careful what you guys wish for, you may not like it when you get it.

the above reply was well thought out and fairly typed , although i did not like the muted threat at the end ,, no matter ,, i think what has got up alot of members noses is the way the rules are picked and chosen to be enforced

rules are rules but you must enforce them all with equal vigour , not just some of them

I agree and if it gets brought to my attention, Ill do that. Someone else is serving time now for posting a disgusting photo right alongside Ace. Just because it appears the rules arent being enforced doesnt mean you can disregard them.

Like I said, Im only one guy with so much on my plate, I need 3 plates but generally Im accessible by PM even tho it might take me a little while reply. If anyone needs anything or has any questions, feel free to PM me.

Im not making a threat.. Im simply saying that if they chose to bring in another admin, the rules may get tightened up tremendously to the point that it will make people unhappy.

If you keep the language clean and dont post NSFW content or make death threats to people, moderation will be kept at a minimum on my end.

Dr.Steve
10-29-2008, 12:07 PM
it means :
1) they want you and Matt to run for pres / vp in 2012 over here

2) not safe for work

Guess in times like these everthing can be taken wrong =P :eek:

I didn't care he's got nothing but negative racial remarks about me in every thread i post in....getting old already

He's bitter cuz black people are getting him fired from his ENTRY LEVEL jobs....so he says....boo hoo

Not sure why he doesn't just get into a career like the rest of us

BlackJeepSRT
10-29-2008, 04:11 PM
I'm sorry I'm not more sensitive to your feelings? Booo Hooo to you!

Who said I got fired? Looks like you're a dumbass because it never happened. Yeah, it's really every thread? Can you exaggerate anymore or is that just saying a lot about your character. Maybe because I'm against Affirmative Action, you want to make things personal? That's fine. I'll report you posts for harassment, overriding the censor filter, personal attacks and stalking. How long would the ban be for that?

You want to bring something funny up. Who is the giant douche for copying somebody else's listing on eBay? I guess a little report to eBay is in order.
