My view on user accounts/privileges on forums
I noticed something really funny about Forkheads (Well I noticed it long ago, though never thought about it much) There's like umm, say 4 Admins or so. All kinds of mods. And considering the fact Forkheads isnt that busy at all, you would only need 1 administrator and say 3 moderators. (Even 3 is too much for this forum) I mean, what's a admin do? He basicly can delete users, ban users, change the forums around, pretty much everything, he has full reign. While a moderator can delete and edit posts that are not his and ban users. Having multiple admins is really stupid, unless your forum is huge, which forkheads is no where near.
I also noticed Lime has been de-admined recently. I dont know if this means Lime gave up on the site, or some asshat de-admined him as a silly joke. And certain people have mod status that really shouldnt. Not my place to say. On the other hand there is people with admin privileges that really shouldnt be trusted with that much power over the forum.

Re: My view on user accounts/privileges on forums
Totally agree with you. We need to weed out the admins and mods and do a biiiiiiiig background mod check.

Re: My view on user accounts/privileges on forums
You know, I've been saying this forever now. In fact, that's why I set-up the LOL-G-MOD-GUIDELINES and created my own position between admins and mods.
'ya know, there's like, no rules for moderation, totally... NOT. Quit screwing around maggots. Wanna bitch about it? DD

Re: My view on user accounts/privileges on forums
1) There are 2 admins. "Forkheads" isn't a real account. 2) Lime has things under control with that. 3) Including Lime there are 5 mods. 4) How many forums have you admined? FH may not be that big right now, but we WANT to grow, and part of the growth will involve the need to work on improvements. Lime is busy alot so can't always be around to do the admin duties as quickly as we hope to have to retain members and quality. Also, the more admins are so we can work on improvements. In fact its not atypical to have a head admin, a tech admin, and so on, even for a somewhat small forum. 5) You don't understand FH, obviously. 6) Don't hide behind "this is spam" you know people care even less outside of spam, and thats why you posted here. 7) Yes. This is what I do.

You see, not everyone in the world is put on medication like you. Some of us are capable of clear and coherent thoughts without medication. Don't worry, you'll understand when you learn how to read sentences longer than 7 words with words containing more than two syllables.

Re: My view on user accounts/privileges on forums
More mods=less work. While it's clear that you want to become a mod yourself, this is a position that's earned; not given. Seniority, unfortunately, is key here. So stick around, we love you
