    the amount of threads locked for no apparent reason. what's that about? anyway, is there any Irish message boards anywhere that aren't so dry? could someone point me in their direction? even if you're a mod. i promise i won't be back if you find me a good one.

    go child. go out into the forrest. find 4chan and goat**. Go find stormfront and billoreilly.com. and when you come back here and realise how calm and civilised and friendly that place is, we'll forget this conversation ever happened, and make jokes about your mother.

    Have a safe trip.

    madblaa.com we need a few more posters there but its fairly no holds barred. Im a mod there a few years now and only thing I done was block a few bot accounts other than that I just annoy people for the fun

    Is he you're grand dad?

    I think the mods do a very good job, all things considered. You'll get some good ones, you'll get some bad ones. But the tone of the site is set by the admins who pick the mods and personally I'd say they've a better eye than any HR person I ever met.

    What I can't understand is why anyone would want to be a Mod. You get held to a much higher moral standard, you have to bite on your best jokes, and you have to regulate a foodfight rather than be in it. Why?

    The free bar had better come with coke and hookers and Ma's.:)

    It's a good judge of websites then.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 18,300 ✭✭✭✭Seaneh


    There are some shockingly shíte mods knocking around, people who seem to think that being a mod is an excuse to be a dick head and somehow makes them "better" than other people.

    The majority however are grand and I'd say all the Admin's are spot on.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭brendansmith


    No, when are you leaving?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,190 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer

    It would look something like this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,445 ✭✭✭jd83


    That would be a good experiment after hours without mods for 1 week. It would probably bring down the internet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,258 ✭✭✭✭Rabies


    Any modding issues go to Feedback or Helpdesk.
    Its easier to discuss them there.
