Do the mods know the state of the forums? (Not to be offending anyone).

It seems like I only see mods post regularly (Like Recon and stosh) here.

Do they know about the state of New Mombasa and the Underground? Do they know that this is one of the last "refuges" of the sane/intelligent/polite people?

Again, I'm not trying to be nosy or childish, I just am curious about the mods and how much they can pick up from interaction with ordinary people like you and me.

I'd appreciate any replies.

The mods are very secret. They are everywhere

No.

They don't know the state of the forums at all. They simply blunder around doing nothing, letting the mod powers go to waste.

PS - Duh!

It's amazing what people want to know sometimes. This thread went from a discussion about the state of the forums and whether or not the mods were doing anything about it to a discussuin about how many people get banned every day. I'm still interested in both. I wonder how many members B.net has?

Almost half a million. When you consider that about 99.9% of them are idiots, it gets worrying.

I once got the chance to witness that. It was on saturday i believe, a few weeksbefore halo 2 got out. it was just leaked and some guy was spreading leaked video's. If you wanted it, you had to ask for it. In about 15 minutes, around 30 people got banned.

This was also the day i got blacklisted for no friggin reason at all.
And all stosh said was "oops", he never ever said sorry once.

5/5 Stars - Kritz.net

too bad I'm new, and yet I already understand the destruction of life as I know it in some of these forums. (New to posting, Before I just read around seeing what's what)

But yeah, The mods would be doing their job, it's just those few who get buy.
Plus, I don't you could ban some one for wines...

Also, adding to the crowd, just how many do get banned?
My bets on ~2,800 / week. (Kinda small, I know)

You guys ban that many nad there are still that many idiots. That just says something about how many morons come here every day. I'd hate to see it if you guys weren't here.

Stosh or Shishka said there would be coming more mods in the near future. So not all is lost yet.
