~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Everyone shut the Hell up before I return and actively moderate General. This is your one and only warning. You shouldn't even be a Mod, but staff management here and fairness between the ranks is beyond subpar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 He's good when he actually does "actively moderate General", but as of late it's been more about his forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 ^ He has a life=/= Mean he can't moderate at all. and has another site. Which he puts way more time and effort into.

Good try tho, Atlas. ^_\\\Because he has a life outside, it DOES mean it's harder to moderate. I understand, however. You don't know what it means to actually HAVE a life. Sorry. Him having his own site and paying more attention to it...Right, let's think for a second. You take the time and effort to create your own site, only to be on another site more often, thus not maintaining your site very well. That sounds perfect. Staff members actually don't get a lot of breaks. Other moderators DO rag on their fellow mods quite often. One of the reasons the mod forum is there, is for us mods to say any issues with have with each other. Next attempt, please? Look, I know you have a hate for most of the forum team, and I can understand that. Just try to keep from fighting, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of the "True" Veterans & he has helped in many tremendous ways to improve this forum, it's just some members not able to cooperate. The Second One: Yes, he does. I am a member. He is using time sleeping, having a life, or running between the two forums correcting people, banning people, posting, & locking here, & being an Admin at the other site. Respect him for what he can do & give him a GD break. Looks like some people don't have lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frunk Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Thanks for the compliments Yankee and others. Corporal Atlas, I can confidently say I am a fantastic moderator. You joined long after I stopped using this site regularly, so how could you know about me, really? My own forum is a greater priority to me than YCM, yes, because in my time here I learnt from YCMaker's poor example. I learnt that members don't like inactive Admins, so like Hell am I going to give any other forum priority over my own. Contribution to a site does not have to be through moderation. If there are Staff discussions I think my opinion would be useful in, then I contribute. If I'm here for whatever reason and see a little job in General that needs doing, I will do it, but my days of commitment to YCM have come and gone. I'm sorry if you expect more of me than is humanly possible. :/ Don't claim to know how the Staff here operates, either, because you don't, and with your attitude, you never will.

MarbleZone Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Ragnork sounds like a Crash Bandicoot villain. I'm sorry if you expect more of me than is humanly possible. :/ I don't think it's a problem of being humanly possible. Like you said, it's a matter of commitment. What I think may stir some people up, and I fully understand that, is the fact that you basically resigned your position (legitimately) but every now and then still pop up and either lock or threaten to lock stuff up, then randomly disappear again. While I understand that you have other priorities, moderating a site (or rather, having the power to do so) is something that should be given only if that person is ready to make the site they moderate a priority. If they can't fully commit, then it sounds awkward when they just pop up and dish out warnings like they've been here all along and following everything that happens. In a sense, people may regard you in the same light they do YCMaker - you have power, but you take part in the community so rarely, that when you do try to get involved in active moderation (not just advising the staff) it comes across as awkward to us "common members". There are nicer and less nice ways to put it, but I think that's about it. ;) Needless to say I was here while you were part of the regular staff, so I know how capable you are/were at the actual job.
