[color=lime]yea thanks alot mods, thats really nice of you. I wanted to continue my convo about keyes' role and flood in Halo 2. Why don't you deal with the spammers instead of ruining the post for everyone else. SPAM is against the rules right??? so deal with those that spam then! This is a community not a classroom!

ohh yea and to the wanna-be bungie mods, (members who think they have the authority to speak for mods) no this isnt spam so save your energy and go be witty somewhere else.[/color]

Dude, that is the coolest post of the whole day.
I hate witty bas.tards that try to be all, "He is a spammer dont feed him. A little kid"
They have news.
The mods are abusing their powers recently

If you are talking about the thread of 7000 some odd posts on the ilovebees thing, it was locked because last night no one was bringing up any new info whatsoever, all that was happening was spam left and right in the thread, so Stosh locked it, Im glad he did, while I was an active poster in that thread it was become more of a nuisance that any sort of informative post....if you want to talk about it then why dont you start a new thread on your ideas, rather than get pissed at the mods who are only doing the job they are asked to do

the mods are not abusing their powers...they are using their judgement of why a topic should be locked..usually the reason why they would lock a good thread is becaus ethere is a giant flamewar or the topic has completly gone off track

(and yes this is spam)

[color=lime] yea but i can see it now, some mod will take this personally and not like a request,(how it should be) and this will get locked and nothing good will come of it. Its funny, anyone with power long enough will abuse it, even somethings small like modding a videogame forum.[/color]

umm i dont think so...they are 7 different mods...each of them has their own opinion and defintion of spam. of course when u have power your VIEW has changed of what u consider good and bad...we just have to look at their point of view

Wow! What a great idea, lets stop spam... with spam. Wow, you guys are top notch intelligence.

Look, Predator, you have a problem with the way the mods are operating the forum, you send them a private message. You have to understand, sometimes the only way to stop a fire is to completely cut it off. Perhaps that topic you are talking about could have escalated to even more spam, perhaps not. Either way, the problem was solved.

As I said, if you have some beef with the moderators, message them, and don't start topics such as this.

well i think hes over doing his job... he blocked a thread about halo 2 legendary ending and told the guy to never post about that topic again. Is it just me or is that a little too over the top?

:( that has happened very often lately...

  • 07.26.2004 3:24 PM PDT

-S

Actually, I'm locking this because you, Predator, are not just flaming the mods, but you're flaming anyone that disagrees with you on the subject.

If you want to talk to mods about a thread being locked, pm a mod.Tell me what link you're making such a big deal about, and I'll look it over.

Predator, you are so walking a fine line. You don't get to label something as spam, and your snide comments are NOT welcome. The moderators are doing their job quite well, and if you have a problem with them, you bring it up with ME, not with some backstabbing remark here and there because you're jealous of their authority. If you have a problem with that, go somewhere else. You probably won't be missed. They have the authority to lock threads as they see fit, and I agree with all of their decisions.

You should take your own advice - you aren't a moderator, so you don't get to choose what can and cannot be locked/moved/deleted.
