SushiTheLegend Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Okay I'm not sure if other Moderators have realized it but for some unknown reason members seem to start PMing you regarding certain things that aren't within our power, I'm refering to those Moderators like myself that only moderate a certain area, so basically before you go asking a Moderator to do something, actually look at what they moderate...oh and just because we change our name doesn't make us a SUPER MODERATOR, all Moderators can change their name.

Parting Shot Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 This thread = epic lulz :P But, seriously, if it's something you can't do just tell them and, if you want, forward the PM to a moderator who can take care of it. Better yet people, rather than PMing moderators about problems, just use the Report button, that's what it's there for. That way all the mods see it and the one(s) who can actually take care of it get informed about it the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate Ryan Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 I think sanji means like when you want your thread closed, they just PM the first mods name they see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just report your own post and put the reason as that you want it locked or closed or moved, w/e. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimate Ryan Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 only YCMaker can change a members name >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiTheLegend Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 No Moderators can change their OWN name, but not anyone else's. YCMaker never replies to PMs, and your name will get changed eventually, either way I'm getting fed up with people not checking things before asking.

Enigma Zero Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 This thread = epic lulz :P But' date=' seriously, if it's something you can't do just tell them and, if you want, forward the PM to a moderator who can take care of it.[/quote'] Q4E. I'm guessing this has to do with one of the PMs I sent you yesterday(or at least I think I did...the speed name changing thing is getting a little hard to keep up with :lol:). While it's true that you're not the Mod over the section that the PM was talking about...you were one of the ones who, as a Mod, was leaning towards a certain direction in that thread that would have had possible bad rammifications for the forum. I took the time to write you a PM and explain this only to not get a reply(unless this thread counts) and read this.... Or just look at the forum team and see who can do what...the amount of people I get asking me to do stuff is horrid...I just ignore them. >> Which, IMHO, is simply unacceptable. Being a regular Mod is a walk in the park compared to most positions on a forum. So if someone brings an issue to your attention that is not within your usual realm to cover...at least forward it up the chain to someone who can handle it. Sometimes the only Mods on the forum at a specific time are not the correct ones...but if you're the only Mod on the forums then you might, just might, have to step up and handle something that's not in your area of expertise. I'm sorry if this comes off as negative and I have nothing personal against anyone here on this forum, but I just found this whole thread to be..well..laughable. If it's not your bag, PM it up to someone who can handle it. It's not hard. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tkill93 Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Actually' date=' Super Moderators have the ability to change any users name.[/quote'] But YCMaker never gave any of us permission to, and it would complicate everything if we started.
