Ive seen some bad users in my time in the forums, abusive, harassive, like that, and mods do nothing about it. Now, the mods are into it. So, why cant the modsdo their job, and tend to the posts? Does anyone else notice this?
No, nor do I care.
well, you can keep not caring, but i think the mods need a wake up call, and they need it now.
i think you should start doing your job
after all, that is what you should be doing
...keeping the posts modded! ive seen rules brokeand nothing done and im tired of it

Answer the question you blitheral idiot.
You're tired of it eh? Well, perhaps you could site some of these places where rules have been broken that were so severe they warranted a mod's response? This site isn't run by Nazi's, and some leway is given, you douche. How about you either get out or just enjoy the way things are done?
How about we get a list of names? I bet I'm on it!
Nah, you're just a jerk. :)
Dear n00b Robb4248,
You are a n00b. This place is not typical of all others. You don't like it? Then get the **** out!
Good day.
We ask for reasons, and all we get is "do your job and mod the posts"
....Specify?
That was so worth a de-repping hyper.
In any case, why are you guys making a big deal out of this little turd? He'll be dead soon anyways. That's right, dead.
vgc, over the years has gotten mods who are anti-fun, just get used to it. The mods are all close friends with the members (most of whom don't remember when they were n00bs, and most who claim to never have been n00bs.) and a group of about 20 of us have grown to be the core of the site.
Christ alive, I miss the vb2 days.
So, in conclusion, you won't be liked unless you like: Dream Theater, which everyone(Well, not everyone, but the majority of you.) started liking because Raptor liked them.
You won't be liked unless you are: an elitest, a jerk, or an *******.
Fun fact: i miss zarg and laminator.
By ***, the man has a point! But alas, I've seen the stick has become loose from the *** lately. So things are becoming a bit more lax.
Pretty much any mod that takes their job very seriously ruins the board. The ones that delete little flame wars, lock threads that get slightly off topic, and stuff are the ones you're wishing for, and those suck testicles.
yeah we wished for them on vb2, now it's hell with them here.
Don't worry, if you dislike Dream Theater, or have no real opinion about it, just don't say it...at least not on the boards. ;)
I don't like DT.
oh shi...
Seriously though, CY makes ****ty guidlines and is just angry because he can't understand why no one likes him.
I dislike dream theater, gave me a headache. I do like Rhapsody, though. Sorry for having a n opnion, you close minded bastards! :)
Anyway, yeah some mods are being more flexible. One thread , on the test board, an smod locked it because crazy k got called fat a few times.
I know this may sound contradictory, but if you want nazis, go over to the Games workshop forum. Yeah, I never post there anymore as fearing my post will be deleted for going slightly off topic, or may have a small flame.
[QUOTE=Hyper]
You really haven't been around VGC long enough to say the old days were any better, because you don't know what the old days were really like.
Actually, I started liking them for their music :) I had no idea Raptor liked them until after I got into the band.
1. I think 9 months was long enough.
2. I said a majority, and a few liked DT before everyone knew raptor liekd them and it became the forum fad of the decade.
I notice, every forum site I EVER come too, I'm never one of the first people, and I ALWAYS seem to come after the "good old days" have passed.
***, I must be cursed.
I like to think I do my job well. I can't mod anything outside of the boards under my control. Yeah, I'm not a perfect guy and I can be needlessly abusive and caustic on occasion, but I'd be a boring piece of **** if I didn't fly off the handle on occasion.
[quote=Hyper]I had no idea Raptor liked them until after I got into the band.
Likewise. I initially thought that Xenos was the one who'd started it off as she was the one who got me into them.
I didn't even know Raptor liked them until I read the Octavarium thread.
Okay, Rob-somethingorother. Loosen your tie, and get that stick out of your *ss. If you don't like the various forms of "harassment" that you say go on here, without so much as giving a link. Then do one of the following:
A. LEAVE, NOW.
B. Join in. :)
Not another one.
I've never even HEARD Dream Theatre.:cool:
ZING
In all seriousness, VB2 was much much better. The mods were more fun, and it was just a more enjoyable place to be, in my opinion.
maian, why do you use british spellings
...and what's the difference between the vB2 mods and the vB3 ones? Philsdad no longer mods computers, MasterAsh disappeared, Sabredog, Xenos, Hyper and I were modded... I've probably left out a few others, but seriously, what's changed that actually matters?
I dislike Dream Theater. James Labrie has the most annoying and nasal voice of any band I've ever heard. After 17 minutes of his voice (combined with the irritating keyboard solos) I reach the conclusion that the whole act is one huge ego-trip; it would certainly explainthe fits of musical self-indulgence.
Prog rock/metal is the music of silly women.
echo
at least fix your avatar :(
...
Gollum hasn't posted in this thread, I'm confused :/
at least i have a few people who aggree, i dont want to be an ***, but you have to see some of the PM's ive gotten, hate mail from members and mods for defending friends. thats why im making a big deal
Well, if there isn't a problem...then why are so many people complaining as of late?
I'm loving the lack of evidence...
There's always been a problem. It just continuously grows and depletes. :\
I vote that we go back to the WWWBoard days, when it comes to banning people!! :D:D:D
'S right up your alley. I think you would enjoy that too much...
Rob, it not too late to de-stain your name. Just chill out and learn to take a few hits. It's like going through schools and encountering bullies. Depending on how you deal with them determines how popular you'll be (be it in a good way, or trouble way).
...and if that doesn't make sense, then count that as my poster-quota of the day. 'Cause I'm pretty tired reading this thread.
HATE PM
everyone else is sending one so I want to join in the fun. I HATE YOU SO MUCH
MAYBE IF YOU POSTED THIS PEOPLE WOULD CHANGE EXCEPT NOT
If you mods dont belive me; here's a PM i recieved from SHADE. See, nothing is done to stop these.
I can just smell the sarcasm.
...well it did for me anyway. I played mind games with those fools, and they NEVER touched me again.
Not sure what that reply was, but I'm counting on it not being a good one.
Yes, thank you. I would much rather go back to the WWWboard format for the boards here.
I vote we don't; the only redeeming feature of them is the nostalgia.
kinda only works for the people there to remember them...
I actually think there should be WWWboards running alongside vgc just to keep the oldies happy.
I let users post as they will as long as it doesn't blatantly break any rules I feel are necessary. After all, the forum is made by the people who post and being too strict prevents them from posting freely. Of course, mindless flaming and pornography is deleted instantly, but I still leave even one sentence posts because that's how the user wishes to present themself, and as long as it's relevant to the thread I don't see a problem with it. Flaming with thought put into a post and threads that get off topic don't bother me though, it's part of a discussion and if someone wants make a post more on topic, they can. It's as simple as that.
I say we all send Robb these alleged hate PM's so he has evidence. :)
Who are you the admin? I think the mods are doing a fine job. Unlike some pushy mods in some other sites I visit and ruin everything.
Basically, there are no bad moderators, only bad users, like that guy that posed as Jesus and claim he wanted to save us from sin.

:(
haha, well, i am now a mod at a different site, and i COMPLEATLY see what you all go through, i want to appoligize on the time and troubles i caused, i am one of you guys now, and proud of it :D
Bout f*cking time. You are forgiven.
Who are you?
lol, thanks, and let me tell you, im glad i know what everyone else goes through, its a good experience, and i like being a part of it :D
I still want to know who you are. :(
Man I read this thread and thought "What the hell was I on?"
NOTHING
I am Rob, Samsung/Computer/Ex-T-mobile mod at CPF. Who are YOU? lol
I am Crackpot/Wacko/Messed up dude. What's your mental state? :D:D
I am tired of "wackoism" and pearched in the belltower waiting for you to walk by a window or something.
I can't believe this thread even managed to have DT references in it. Sometimes I don't know what to think.
Ugh. POCO U SUXKS.
Man, this kid got thoroughly hazed, much more so than most n00bs... what exactly did he do to earn it, or was it soley this thread?
Yeah.
Although [url=http://vgchat.com/showthread.php?t=6818]this[/url] is just gonna add to the problem.
Yeah, those mods totally suck.
Robb4248,
To put it simple......just leave man.
I am generally very devoted to keeping my areas of responsibility clean. However, I am at work right now and as such don't really have time to think about that stuff. Besides, I'd like to have fun for one day.
The Judge is the only true one in his Judgement. Follow the ways of the Judge and give him what he asks for. Which right now is watermelon.
Heres your watermelon Judge

There you go...lol
[left]Dear Robb,[/left]
If you think the mods are doing such a bad job then why don't you leave some constructive critisicm instead of just making stupid statements about how horrible of a job they are doing. Tell us exactly what they are doing wrong and how we can fix it. Since I registered here at vgchat I have seen many spammers join and spam the crap out of this forum. Now look. There is barely any trash left. If the mods were doing a bad job wouldn't all that spam still be lying around? I strongly disagree with you robb. The truth is the mods are doing an excellent job. If you think otherwise maybe you should apply and do your best to become a mod so that you can fix everything that is wrong by yourself.
