You ask for more Mods... (pg. 2)

I would like to once again reiterate my sentiments for giving this particular forum a little more time before a decision is made on a new mod. We are not even 1 week after a most incredibly heated election, and it fairly evident that tempers and gloating haven't quite calmed down just yet. I do have confidence that they will, and things will be a little bit more on the civil side, once again.
So if there's any mod that may still be paying attention to this thread, all I ask is that you wait just a bit longer until your decision(s) is made on a new mod. If things haven't curbed a bit after your allotted time, say another week or two, then I would fully support a new mod. myself for this forum. |

I agree with the post above. The flow of this subforum was going okay until election time. Things got a bit messy. Thta's bound to go away.
Maybe you should just have a person moderating here during election time. |

| Hell, flaming doesn't work if the flamee doesn't respond. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Best way to stop the flaming is to ignore it altogether(if only it were that easy!). |

well I understand trashtalking but when vulger language along with racist remarks of hate come into play....MODS need to come in.
One particular user to look at: KAMIL
Short responses consisting of 7-10 words with about 7 of them being bad words/hateful comments.
There is a Difference in postelection humor/trashtalking and Hate/antiamerican/vulgar..and this past week its become quite evident |

True. I just hate to censor free speech. If a person wants to make an ass of themselves by acting immature, then so be it. But I recognize that sometimes the language is just so offensive and out of line that a higher power must intervene to set things straight. |

he banned a user that was posting in this forum because he personally took offense to what that user posted... so he might not have powers to edit/close threads in here, it seems he still has the power to ban any of the members.

how can you explain that after 5 days , no moderator disagreed with the suspension ?
you've been on TA longer than the majority and you perfectly know the racism rule , but apparently you make it seem like you never heard of it before.
it figures you have a personal problem with me :haha: |

I think that the PF needs a mod, but not a lot of moderating: We need someone with mod powers for those once-in-a-month situations where a useless thread from COR is dumped in here, or when a troll goes on a posting spree in frustration over lack of answers. Not so much for banning or being the opinion-police, but for removing redundant threads that hogs the page space from the interesting ones.
Anyway, it seems as though the new moderator is Lira? Hope you do a good job - I have not noticed your posting much so if you moderate in the same lowkey fashion you'll probably be a popular mod. |

| Lira always does a good job moderating the other subforums. I'm glad he will control this one too. He's bound to do a good job. Good luck. :) |
