Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time
I've been fighting myself on whether or not I was going to actually post this post. Then I realized that the worst thing that can happen, is I lose my pretty blue bar.
I think the new rules are awesome, and I always have. I've loved them from day one. Maybe it's because I've been able to have a little more fun than most. To me, the rules are general common sense: "Don't say what you wouldn't want to be said to you", "Don't call someone a name that you wouldn't call your mother", "Treat someone how you'd want to be treated" things of that sort.
In my honest opinion, the problem lies with moderation. Don't get me wrong, they're a great bunch of guys. For some though, I can't say I'd walk to worlds end backing them up and agreeing with their decisions. Some, absolutely, but unfortunately not all.
I can't say that I'm for more, or less, mods. I think the number is great, considering they are probably stepping on eachother's toes, and still being able to keep everything in a somewhat orderly fashion.
As far as activity goes, it is what it is. Activity will always hit its off-points. No matter how many we have or how frequently they "check-in", there will always be off-points, that's what the Report Button is for.
No, my main logic is that some of the moderators aren't, not to sound offending, "good". Now, before I go any further, I am not mentioning any names or any hint giving. Though, after posting something like this about a year back. It had my friends in the mod club defending themselves, and--what may have been circumstantial--one of my favorites bounced.
So, what do I mean by "good"? Partially:Posted by: drummer0702
I think we need more moderators that are a little more strict.This here. For the simple fact that we need our little pegboy back, even if no one could ever replace him, it would be good to see that from the moderation team again.
Now, the other part? Whether they like it or not, they're role models to The Community. Showing what is right while still being able to have fun with it. A few of the mods currently do this very well, and it's awesome to see. Then there's the few that simply don't care (don't follow the rules as well as they should), are all around lazy (being on, ready, able, and in the same forum but not doing anything [H:R, Flood, Septagon]), or being hypocrites (banning someone for something the moderator did in a recent post).
