They're....well, inactive. There's only 3 listed on Bungiepedia. So...why do they still have a moderator status when they are inactive?

Because they're the mods we need, but not what we need right now.

You don't know how much they moderate.

Everyone (except I think Fragula) who has "Ninja" in their titlebar has posted since the new year.

That's not inactive.

They could be on leave/busy. A situation where right now, they can't moderate as much as they'd like. Just because they can't now doesn't mean they won't ever be able to return, so that's why Bungie hasn't removed their permissions.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

People have lives outside of Bungie.net that need to be attended to. The webteam allows them to come and go as they please. It is volunteer work.

Well except for Yoozel, he's paid in booze.

Does activity count when they moderate/unleash the ninjas? Could be that they moderate, but just don't post in that case.

Exactly.
- they're trusted people
- they're probably just busy with life
- they aren't doing any harm being inactive

I can't comprehend why someone would do that and not post.
Lots of people (most mythics) already just browse a lot and don't post. If you're already browsing, why not moderate while you're doing that?

This was sort of what I was going for, if it's a new thread that blatantly defies a rule, then I would venture to guess they just lock it and message/ban the offender depending on the severity of the offense.

If I volunteer for something, but never show up, then I would get taken off their list of volunteers.

This is b.net, not your local animal shelter.

In case you haven't noticed, we do things differently here

"I have no words that would do justice to the atrocities you commit to the English language, as well as your continued assaults on the concepts of basic literacy and logical reasoning."

What exactly is the problem here? Do you think they're taking up "space"? Like they're preventing us from appointing a new moderator?

I'm sorry, but of all the things people in this forum like to post about, this is by far the most stupid. Even worrying about your user titles (that don't mean anything) is a more productive use of your time than this topic.

Yes, "Bungie.net Overlod" is just a title. The powers that go hand in hand with it though....
