DF Moderators


kanelli I propose that the following moderators be reconsidered.
They do not exist,
the_zooter - left the forum
Liban - left the forum
XRW-147 - left the forum
harpax - who the hell is harpax? Never heard of him, never seen a post in one year.
faisal7 - who the hell is faisal7? Never heard of him, never seen a post in one year.
Alvii - who the hell is Alvii? Never heard of him, never seen a post in one year.
sweet_mary - who the hell is sweet_mary? Never heard of him, never seen a post in one year.
Missing in action,
arniegang
Disappear for months at a time,
sniper420
Jamal
Ish
The only active moderators seem to be,
sage & onion
chocoholic
smartd
Andyba
yorky500 Also, Liverpool4ever = he/she is never around Sarah1983 (or whatever) = sometimes here, sometimes not I thought Jeevan was a Mod? kanelli Fayz and sara_uk are still around, and their Arabic Language forum isn't really a heavy one to moderate, so that is why I didn't comment on them. asc_26 Guys, it is really about moderators why DF is like this now? If most topics are lame now, then why not post interesting topics like old days you all talked about. I don't know about the old DF since i am a newbie. kanelli Asc, you are in danger of steering this off topic. We are discussing moderating because it is only one small part of the current forum issues. No one has claimed that the moderating is the sole problem at all. yorky500
Disagree, Concord believes it is due to one moderator and one moderator only! kanelli Yes, but Concord is only one person and a few of us have listed more reasons why this forum has gone to hell in a handbasket recently. Yorky, our overly-long battle over t & a avatars didn't help the situation, so we have a part too... I'm glad it is over. :D liverpool4ever
I am around but not often... i sometimes even forget that I am a mod as I do not have the title nor access to the admin zone, in addition to the fact that noone posts at 'my section' :P kanelli That is strange liverpool4ever, because you are listed as a mod, so we assume you have access to the mod forum and have mod rights for moving and deleting things. You'd better take it up with Admin. kanelli Zoots, are you back? I think you were doing a good job moderating so I hope you are back. I remember all your hard work with deleting b_lady's spamming threads that appeared every 2 minutes for a couple of days. That was a heck of a lot of work!

Nick81 Alright I think it's about time I expressed my opinion on this. Since Liban's departure from the forum, everything's been kinda chaotic here. Now the easiest thing to do here is to assume that this is because he was doing a good job as a mod. But no sir, that's not it. You people will just have to admit that we need a Lebanese running things here. Just give me a chance and I'll show ya how it's done. bushra21
hehehehehehehehe
*covers mouth*
hahahahahaHAHAHAHAAHAHA
ok now that that is over, how would you fix things....please, tell us :D freza I vote for you Lebanese guy, but you really need to toughen up a bit more. bushra21
but then he'll lose all his charm. :oops: Nick81
Knew I could count on ya :wink:
Khalas, it's obvious no1 will be able to come up with a single argument as to how I couldn't possibly do a good job. So let's just contact Andyba and get this over with shall we? bushra21
You still havent answered my question....your charm wont win me over that easily Nick81
I thought it did quite a long time ago... You're in your denial phase today? bushra21
*cough*
I have no idea what you are referring to sir. I believe you must be in your delusional phase; yet again. freza
umm, what charm exactly? Softies are charming to you? Liban-style heartlessness, now that's charming.
bushra21
I was in love with Liban :oops: sage & onion
Lets be honest my Daughter, you have been in love with everyone here, except me of course, but then again, I am your Dad :wink: bushra21
No, I full heartedly deny that accusation. I have not been in love with everyone.... :oops: freza stretch that love all over the place why don't you sage & onion
I'm glad we cleared that one up then :wink: Nick81
Still calling me a softy... The time when we finally get to meet someone's in for a big surprise! Mark my words! freza Even your warning is mild, what are you going to show up with an AK-47 or something like that? Anyway, before Moon Bat starts yelling at us for messing up her thread, I think a closeted-Bush-Lover should also join the mod squad, just to even things out a bit. And I'm serious about my suggestion, I'm not trying to be inflammatory, silly or anything like that. kanelli I don't miss Liban in the slightest, but I do give him credit for not removing things that personally offend him. Nick, actually, you could make a very good moderator. You don't have breasts though. :D Nick81
Breasts? :?: :?:
What does this have to do with me qualifying as a mod? :shock: kanelli Some of the ladies said they wanted a female moderator because the rest are men (besides Chocs). Nick81 Well I can try and be in touch with my feminine side as much as possible :lol: bushra21
well that shouldnt be too hard, i mean, you are lebanese... freza ^ hahahaha! Nick81
Nah, just applying Sun Tzu's words: "Know thy self, know thy enemy". Of course not enemy as someone you wish to fight, more like the kind you want to conquer... :lol: sage & onion
Mmmmmm, getting some strange vibes here Nick, whats going on :wink: fayz ah haaa now it all makes sense why every lebansleazy guy is a hairdresser because there truly are somethings only your hairdresser knows Nick81
Ok now I am confused. :shock: kanelli
Oops, sorry, it was S & O who did the bulk of deleting with the b_lady spamming fiasco - thanks again S & O for cleaning the forum up. It was a big job. sage & onion
Don't be confused m8, it looks like you have to open the closet door :lol: bushra21
confused....or in denial asc_26 I'll vote the lebanese guy to be a mod in the Romance Forum. :P Jamal :lol: the hate up in here. hahaha.. yall can choose anyone to moderate any section up in this forums ... it dont bother me at all ... but aint no one but ISH and myself moderating up in the fight club ..(smartd shoved his bitch ass in there ... but its all good he an ol G an we tight like that ..) .. i dont think anyone intrested in moderating that section anyways ... since the only thing the moderator there has to do is make sure the section dont turn to a trash bin since everythin is moved there... movin shit i dont like in there bound to get deleted .. u start a topic in there that i might not like it aint gonna be touched cause i dont give a fuck bout what ppl gotta say in my spot but aint down with litter.... an yea we be dissappearin for a couple of months .. thats just cause we need to regain the urge to post .. cause u all with ur constant set of rules and moaning an whinnin like bitches kills the atmosphere ... so we dissappear an re appear an still get love ... even though hate is the evident thing seen.... but u all know without J it just aint the same . ISH yea mrs kanelli i dont come here for couple of weeks coz i either tryin to get women off my nuts or am tryin to manage them + yall is bunch of haters so tell me know u wanna be a mod or wat DON ISH alexandra i dont like the fact that some ppl in here keep acusing S&O. he is one of the harmless members in here. :roll: i think he is doing a good job compared to other moderators. take as ex. the fact that at least he asked our opinion about moving a thread. and when he moves the threads he always saies why he did it. he never used lines like: i am a moderator and i do whatever i like (as some other did), he was never arrogant towards the members based on his moderator status. i would rather have him as a moderator than arniegang...just my opinion and i agree with Kanelli that there r too many moderators but few who r actually doing their job. i also agree that they should be removed or replaced by others. easternjewel can I pleaseeeeee mod fight club :P I m sure ready to get all the training from J. How to yo-mama-so-fat & conclude the post with "but nothing personal" :roll: liverpool4ever
I have those rights to edit, delete, move, etc. posts and threads, but do not have the access or the title.. I am only listed as a mod on the forum description :) fayz
denial Concord
And where exactly did I say that? I, like everyone else have an opinion (good thing) - which I epressed and never said that it is due to one moderator only - I said he contributed and re-posted my earlier post (pretty on the mark actually). And who the hell made you S&O's "defender" anyway?
Besides who cares what "Concord" ,one of thousands of members has to say on anything :roll:
P.S. thanks again for the insurance tip thing on going to Oman. kanelli Your opinion counts, even if we all don't agree that Sage & Onion is doing such a terrible job, as you believe. Concord
I must be from another planet.
What does doign a "terrible job" or a "great job mean"? So he posts lots of stuff and moves/deletes/ and comments on why he moved/deleted. X,Y, Z post. Doing those "things" is the reason for my opinion: Quantity does not equal quality. I made a prediction on August 25th and it was this: S&O becoming a moderator = loss of "entertainment" and veterans. What happened? Exactly what I "predicted". Coincidence? Probably but.....
Let me give you an example; "MAC" surfaced not long ago. Posted some "provocative" but funny stuff - if you see "all posts" by MAC you see they were HPesk type of harmless stuff. Many of the veterans including HP (who was/is believed to be one and the same with MAC), posted and followed MAC's "dumb" posts. What happened? MAC was banned because S&O asked that he be banned. Result: same all crap all over again (haven't seen the veterans around since).
I tell you what: do you think for a moment that the forum will cease to exist if S&O left the forum eventhough he is doing such a "great job". I think not! I already "read" the posts (to follow) about how I should leave, etc. etc. Won't phase me a bit (that's why I do my homework...).
Anyways, today's newbie is tomorrow's "veteran".... kanelli Truthfully Concord, I can't say for certain 100% of the time who has been deleting or moving what or what the circumstances were. Jamal has admitted to deleting the Saddam thread so we know he did it. I totally missed the MAC affair and don't know why he was banned. From what I saw he wasn't nearly as bad as others who are allowed to continue to post here. yorky500
Nobody made me S&O's defender.
No sweat, i take it you managed to work your way through the system and procedures? yorky500
and rumour has it that MAC maybe somebody we all know pretty darn well too, hey Concs :wink: ISH to bad young gunna DON ISH
