Yeah - what do they say about 'great power' .. .comes with 'great responsibility'.
Seriously, if anyone spots any spammers, please email me (michael@alfagtv6.com) just in case I miss it myself. And Zamani, you can have the MOD rights if you wish since you are always the first to spot those wankers.
I've set you as a Mod now for almost all groups. Moderators have the power to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forums they moderate.
I'll still need to delete any spammers accounts - but you should be able to delete their posts etc.
Oh, now seconds later, Michael has been added as a moderator.
What great response time!
I will sleep better this morning knowing that Zamani isnt the sole soul controller.
i know you have good intentions z, but suggesting the "modification" of this site is suggesting its death !!!
making "mods" out of people is a great way to kill a site, creating classes of people. My probelms with the suggestion:
1) This forum isn't that big to require bereaucratic control.
2) The so called spammers haven't done anything, indeed the usually sharp barry didn't even notice them and their presence let alone suggesting that this alone is auspicies for an insurmountable problem that requires remedy through the mediation of posts. (admittedly this is my weakest point, since it is common knowledge that barry isn't very sharp at all.)
3) The lack of "rules" and a list of "ban-able offenses" is what makes this forum awesome.
4) The segregation of members, especially "old school" members into mods and plebs is pretty retarded.
Why are you all so afraid. I've known mike since 10 years ago and I've been on this forum since...close to its inception. I'm well aware of how it should run.
I'll probably just kick and ban a few people, what's the big deal? I mean.... so what if the poster from Greece never shows up again....
