Subject: I'm Not Quite Sure I Understand

If you've ever taken a look at the roles of the Ninjas in HFCS, you'll have noticed -- most likely -- that their role in the Group corresponds to their Title. Master Ninjas are Master Moderators, regular Ninjas are Mister Moderators (and Miss Moderator, in the case of THE DON WAN), inactive Ninjas are Sleeping Moderators, and a few others (Community Guy, Bungie.net Overlord, Head Moderator, etc.).

I was curious today as to whether or not DeeJ had been let into the group. He had been. I looked him up, and noticed that his role was Sleeping Moderator; why do you think this is?

Do you think that it's because he's not an "official" Moderator? IT'S A CONSPIRACY

He mentioned in the games tonight that he recently got Mod powers so he can pin threads and stuff, but I suppose "Sleeping" could just be the default title for a new group member in HFCS.

It's probably because "sleeping moderator" is the basic rank.

Maybe they haven't decided on a title for him within the group.

Or


Maybe you're right.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

"Sleeping Moderator" is probably the default member role for HFCS. When he joined, changing the title was most likely the least of the Webteam's concerns.

  • 11.29.2011 11:34 PM PDT

Nah, he's had Mod powers. I asked him when he first got promoted, and he said not to tell anyone.

Its because he's very, very tired.

I thought that would be self evident. Hippos and wet noodles can take a lot out of you.

No, we don't; which is why I used the key word "probably".

We'll "probably" know, when a moderator "probably" answers this question: "probably" in the form of a post.

"probably" :D

You put a comma in the middle of my sentence and swiveled the new clauses around?

Don't cry. It's only a jest over the greatness of the word probably when expressing your opinion as only opinion, thereby avoiding most arguments of mistaking opinion as fact.

Or you could post something enlightening, being that you're currently in the moderator group.
Even "I really have no idea why, I haven't noticed" would help.

Why would I do that when the vague and clearly sarcastic misinformation tactic has been so widespread for so very long?

It does begin to cause migraines after so long. Well, either the vague and sarcastic misinformation or the basking in your manliness. Can't tell which one is causing my head to implode.

But it's time for a grammar lesson! The key order of the sentence to convey your idea would have been:Posted by: Izak609Because "sleeping moderator" is probably the basic rank.notPosted by: Izak609It's probably because "sleeping moderator" is the basic rank. That would be:Because -> "sleeping moderator" -> is  probably the basic rankwhere "because" identifies "sleeping moderator", meaning "sleeping moderator" has the chance of being the basic rank, whereasIt is -> probably because -> "sleeping moderator" -> is the basic rankwhere the first "it" is referring to the reason why DeeJ's role is "sleeping moderator", so that sentence can be rephrased accurately toDeeJ's role is probably "sleeping moderator" because "sleeping moderator" is the basic rank.Which is how I read it. ;)

WAIT FOR HIM TO REBUKE AGAINST MY AWESOME LOGIC

Probably. Or that he doesn't moderate really, He's the community guy.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I know, but what I was saying was that his job isn't to moderate, therefore he probably wouldn't have the title "Mister Moderator". the reason I say this is because since he doesn't moderate often he would have the title "sleeping moderator" which from what I thought meant that the mod was just not active. As I said before, his job is to do community stuff, not moderate the forums.

Deej will probably moderate the forums a little and give people time outs if they are out of line (probably in community threads like the ride along mostly where people spam or flame).

I would say it is part of his job as a watcher of the community. But he could have a diffrent rank later on in HFCS becuase he probably recently joined. Either way, he has moderator powers and most likely will ue them if people get out of line.

  • 11.30.2011 7:38 AM PDT

He's had them, guize. Bet yes, arch is right; his job isn't to moderate, so he didn't want to tell anyone until recently.

Evilcam may have put up a fight about the noodles, but he gladly dishes them out to noobies.

Ironically, if you all had checked HFCS when trying to figure out who the new Asst. Community Manager was, you would have found him.

Hey guys, let's all discuss a private group in the main forums instead of just asking DeeJ via PM.

This is like asking what the roles mean in, say, OTK. If you want to know, ask someone from the group.
