There is one moderator that I don't like and think should be replaced because he locks threads that shouldn't be locked, but I'm not going to mention his name, unless a moderator says I can.


I don't see why you wouldn't be able to, as dmbfan pointed out earlier, we aren't infallible. But I don't think I've seen any moderator be abusive of the priviledge they were given. Mostly when a thread is locked, it's because it's a repeat of a previous thread. A lot of that wouldn't happen if people read the stickies in the forums.


I dont like Toast as a person because of the way he acts and his actions in IRC chatroom but that doesn't make him a bad moderator. In my opinion, he's an alright moderator who gets angry way too easily. If he could keep his calm and be a civil person then he'd be amazing. All of the other moderators are amazing and do an amazing job and that includes Marc ;). I'm just expressing my feelings towards the moderators right now. Hopefully none of you guys took that as an offense.

I have read through just about this entire lil' monster of a thread, (that's an accomplishment for me since I have the attention span of a fruit bat) and I've acctually learned something about the way the mods of these forums work.

The work the moderators do here is very respectable and they continue to work up to and through the expectations I've been raised on through other online forums. Even though there are sometimes I feel a moderator is being too rash or strict, they really are just looking out for the well-being of this site.

I give you my thanks for keeping these forums sane and look forward to more time spent on Bungie.net.

Cheers,
John

I'm awesome.

My mom says so.

I think the mods are great...but I'm not too fond of Shishka....its his icon...evil....well that, and I didn't get a response to one of my e-mails...lol but basically i think everythings great.

A pissed off and spiteful mod can do much more (potentially irreversible) damage than a few regular jerks running around trolling.


Wow!, did the new guy just take a shot at the former b.net Mod, non-disavowed, Reginko?
I don't see how that would be a shot at Reiginko.

Pwned?

Reiginko was relieved of his Modship powers for, um, shall we say, less than necessary behavior. He is the most recent Mod to have this happen, and its probably just me, but I felt like the new kid was hinting at the whole 'Reiginko Incident of 06' with his comments about Rampant Mods.
Reiginko didn't have his powers taken away, he decided to quit being a moderator. If he came to us today and said, "You know what guys, I want to be a moderator again," I'm sure we'd just go, "Welcome back, old friend!"

Get your facts straight before you start accusing people of things they didn't do.

Edit: And by the way, Reiginko was one of the best and nicest moderators this site has had. You would have to do a lot to get blacklisted by him. I'm sure Shishka has blacklisted more people in one week than Reiginko did in his whole tenure.

Reiginko is a sleeping mod. He could always come back.

He is always sleeping.

I think your taking this a little too seriously.

Actually, I PM'd a Mod once about why Reiginko was no longer a Mod and they said that they weren't going to say. I started a few threads seeing if anyone knew the tru7h, but everyone acted like it was a big secret. So I have been purposefully probing the perimeter looking for an oppurtunity to find out why he is a Mod no more. Using false suggestions, reverse pyschology, mis-direction, ect. My tactics were deceptive to you I'll admit, but I had to find out, what ever the cost. Now I'm satiated.... but for how long?

MUUUUUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!


Obsessive much?

--on another note, I think MLG Chewhatever is an idiot.

Posted by: Achronos
There is a reason I am user ID 1 and my account creation date is before this site came online.

Agreed, and since Achronos himself said that if Reigi asked for his powers back they would be granted, I'm pretty sure that Reigi left on good terms.

On another note, I feel bad for you Jim, it seems like you drew the short straw and are stuck patrolling the Halo3 forum. That's an uphill battle to begin with. You know how little avarage members like to read, especially if it is in a sticky, so trying to convince everyone to post in the already made stickies is going to be a challenge.

On another side note, it is nice to see DMB back for a little bit, I have seen you in forever. Hope everything is going well.

Cheers,

Damn straight. I'd welcome him back anytime, no matter how many times he calls me a gun nut.

And of those who still think the forum ninja are mean and nasty: trust me, the alternative is to clone The Soul, and that'd be a hell of a lot worse than anything you've seen yet.
