Oh hell no, not Redsox. If I had to pick a new super mod it would be DavidV. I think Blasian would be a good OT mod also.

And for the love of god, don't make HighwaySpeed the moderator of Hunting and Firearms.

Mods IMO need to be older, established, even tempered, and open minded. I had an issue with one moderator because he was Christian, as as you all know, I have little respect for organized religion or its followers. If you're a follower you automatically have a decreased tolerance to criticism of your beloved religion.

there are other sites? I thought this was the entire internet?

How did I bring the "holier than thou attitude?" All I said was that we have our **** to do outside of the forums. We all can't spend most of the day moderating the forums. We're here to help, but we won't sacrifice our lives for the forum.

Like John said above, you can report the post as necessary. I even invited the members to PM me with problems, as I usually take care of those the fastest as opposed to checking my email for reported posts.

BTW, I agree with davidv becoming a mod. He's pretty good with telling the "noobs" to search or post something that implies that.

Wooot. Biggest part about me is that I'm damn near always onlined but I'm known to cause havoc... in a funny way most of the time

+1 for davidv... he even provides pictures

Don't make redsox one.... he'll make us burn when we pee

Sorry, it just seemed like you were getting a big head in your previous post.

Instead of having a few hard core 24/7, ***** to the wall, hardcore mods you should have many part time folks. ALL RELAXED AND OPEN MINDED folks BTW. The problem will be finding enough level headed, tolerant folks to fill these slots.

Personally I'd prefer the mods stay out as much as possible. I don't mean that offensively. I just don't really like censorship unless the vast majority finds it tasteless. I'm not for strict control, but rather a self moderated forum without mods. Mods should just be there for those special "WTF is that clown thinking" episodes. I don't report many posts except for spammers, and just brainless posts. But I think my tolerance level is higher than most.

You're online a lot, I've never seen you really butt hurt by any posts. The worst I've seen is the wace issues you and I banter about and that's just two folks talking, nothing big and no one gets Emo. You never seem to get offended by other people's opinions, not matter how untactful. Plus doesn't affirmative action apply to mods??

*couldn't resist*

Yeah, usually I don't get upset about things but I'm not afraid to speak my mind... and if I'm wrong I have no problem admitting thats its my fault.

lol you and I pretty much have a conversation in just about every OT thread

Maybe it had something to do with telling people to stop whining.....when they're just giving their opinion/feedback........you know in the "My350Z.com Feedback, Suggestions & Questions Section Only if You Don't Complain About any Mods or Site Performance Only Feedback That is Accepted if You Agree With Everything We Do"

Maybe. I was actually directing that toward certain individuals, not to the general public. My bad.

Some of the mods and admins have been talking about some changes within the staff members for a while now, so don't think we are ignoring what you guys are saying. Things are hectic for everybody, especially this time of the year, and the rate of any major changes for our forum can sometimes be affected.

We'll strive to do what's best for the community, but just remember that the utilitarian rule isn't always the best solution.
