TL.net's great but sometimes we should all remind ourselves it is an internet forum after all, whether you're a mod or a regular user or whoever, never taking anything too far without reason. | ||

banning and locking is the most annoying thing a moderator can do and they should only be used as a last action when nothing else works. try to think as in real life. do you think you can make people dissapear because they are annoying? do you also just interept in the middle of a discussion youre not even a part of and go "hey hey this is a useless discussion, shut up" and then make them shut up? you are grownups and if you have to use the admin powers too often you should learn to solve problems rather than running away from them/making them dissapear temporarily. | ||

Hint for stimey: reading your posts in the last days is what inspired me to create the ignore thread in website feedback. Dunno about fakesteve it's easy to ignore him because he does not make big posts like mitsy  But so many off topic/king of the hill posts are not worthy of a moderator. | ||

TL is a great site i think because the moderators are lenient and fair. And people shouldnt be banned as long as they dont act like an ass or flame everyone and contribute. Like no moderator should be acting like a dictator but we need some moderation to keep the site tidy and neat. | ||

You all act like they all ban a ridiculous amount of people. Most of the people banned all have less than 200 posts each, generally new people who haven't been following the rules. As a former forum mod, banning 200 users in 4 months really is NOT that much, considering how many were temp bans and new accounts by formerly banned people And if you even look at the bans, Twisted prolly bans more people than rekrul. | ||

(j/k btw)Haha, I guess it wasn't evident in my post since you can't hear my tone.  Saying "even Cyric" was more so inspired by the fact that you rarely put up with bullshit logic, while the rest of those guys would forgive ignorant posts just because I'm so hugable. | ||

i think the moderators are good, but i personaly became sick of this site when i see somebody post a serious topic followed with an immidiate flame so somebody can look funny and make the other person look bad. i see it happen so much, those are the people that should get banned, i agree with the moderators too, i feel people should be banned when they post stuff in topics that have nothing at ALL to do with that topic... | ||

Drone ftw. Sometimes I get absolutely sick of ppl like Rek and Bey who are so immature in their behaviors and just ban ppl they don't like w/ little to no reason what so ever and people have to suck up to them. Someone makes a comment, kind of out of line yet still very funny to the very least, people replied "lol gold" and rek came, and went "Not funny!" then banned him. Then people would proceed and say "OMG 1000foot tall rekrul~ <3 <3" That's just sychophantic, and makes me want to throw up, real violently. | ||

Edit: and uhjoo, don't pretend that being a moderator sucks. From experience, it doesn't. Obviously all of us like posting on forums (we're on a forum). So having more powers, and thus being more respected, is pretty important. And the TINY, TINY (let me stress this TINY!!!) bit of work you (not you in particular, but moderators in general) do, does not ruin the experience. | ||
