    What happens if a mod say of AH wants to ban another mod of AH.

    Does it happen? or do they need to get permission from the Smod/Cmod?

    That would be the admins decision afaik.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    If you did that it would be like crossing the streams :eek:

    You just don't do it.

    It would cause the end of the world. like if you actually managed to delete the recycle bin on your computer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    It doesn't happen. If a mod of AH did something worthy of banning from AH, they'd be removed as mod of AH by the admins and then they could be banned, if so desired.

    Not quite afaik.

    A regular mod cant ban a fellow mod but I do believe a CMod can ban a regular from a forum as can a SMod.

    I'm not sure they can be banned from the forum, but they can certainly be warned not to post/mod for a certain amount of time which has happened before.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky


    Banning another mod on the same forum would get disscussed firstly.
    But mods get banned from other forums regardless.

    :)

    Was that not a CMod before?

    Can't remember exactly.

    Anyway, Op had the question answered.

    Lets get a name and shame of the mod's who have banned themselves..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,083 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    Can't be done. I've tried and it causes an infinite loop that causes boards.ie to run really slowly and eventually go offline.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    That and it's sounds like a pretty emo thing to do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,297 ✭✭✭Ron DMC


    It's like googling the word 'google'.

    Seriously, don't do it.

    WhiteWashMan, as the Rec Cmod has banned a couple of AH mods in the past.
    He can't actually ban us, but just tell us to stop posting.

    Aye. That counted as our temporary ban. Were it to be permanent, we could easily be de-modded and/or banned.
    As above, a moderator cannot ban another moderator of the same forum, or CMod, or SMod or Admin. Moderators of other fora are fair game. They're just users in any other forum than the one they moderate.

    if it were more serious, id just get them demodded.
    as it was a fortnights holiday was had, and all was well with the world again.

    So when the demmoded mods is their ban is gone?and still able to post again?
    EG. A standard member gets a ban will be banned and gone.(cant post etc)
    A demodded mod isnt really a ban?
    What im trying to say is that looks to me a demmoded mod gets away with their ban?

    I suspect someone being demodded might look on that as more of a slap on the wrist than being banned, tbh.

    Anyway, why do you care? :confused:

    They could be banned after being demodded...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,083 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    Sometimes they're sitebanned for various reasons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    Mods banning other mods can lead to extreme cases of vaginal sand.
