Come on you mods!!

Recommended Posts

I feel sorry for you Vince, especially at Winterville, and I hope it clears up soon..................but.........................this message board has become a pale shadow of its former self these days.

Moderating has ruined it, even the offy site has dumped moderation.

Any chance here?.

[quote user="Web Team - Vince"]It''s been moderated since about late 2000/early 2001.

There are plans to go unmoderated, but when this will be is still a mystery.

You do realise that there could be anarchy on here if it goes completely unmoderated, don''t you?

I prefer un-moderated sites (even though swearing gets through)

[/quote]When I say ''unmoderated'' I really mean that the plan is to allow messages to appear instantly on the site and deal with problem later (when spotted, reported), rather than delayed until after we have approved them. But I can see that things will become looser.

Ah, that makes it a bit clearer - cheers Vince [Y]

Yes but that site doesn''t have any total muppets signed up on there does it Wiz? It is nice having a proper discussion, where we can disagree but not descend into petty name calling. Having said that if there were then I''m pretty sure they''d be dealt with quickly - some people have got away with murder on here even though this forum is moderated.

I can see both points of view. The wonderful site that you, Bigmark and myself use Wiz, (Carrowroad.net) is unmoderated but does fall foul to most of us talking about every subject under the sun except football, thus making it very hard to follow the main topic of the thread. Having said that it''s an excellent site with some great debates.

This site falls down in its continuity. It sometimes takes hours to get to see replies on posts and thus probably turns a good few potential replies away because of this.

Vince - when will the less than moderated site be up and running. I promise to be on my very best behaviour and not be a naughty poster if the Pink Un does become a little less moderated.

Yes of course Wiz, but you and I both know that the other site (or sites in my case) we use doesn''t have anyway near the same amount of members, or the same amount of posts being submitted to each topic on a daily basis does it? And one of the mods or admin do have to step in on odd occasions I feel.

Do you get me?

But to be fair you can hardly compare the carrow.net site with this one Wizard. That has only about 78 members  with probably less than 10 regular posters whereas the pinkun has 1000''s of members and many more people online at any one time.

I think with larger sites like this you either have to leave it as it is or you have to have several mods to delete and edit posts which are unacceptable.

I agree its annoying when you have to wait several hours for it to be updated though but thats up to boss Celia to sort!

Just a different slant - if they weren''t there I think I would actually miss the mods. They all seem like very nice people and add contributions on occasion.

I agree Yankee, I would miss them too, they are part of our community on here and do contribute.
