astrodyne 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Cruel...but I can totally understand the need to test the system for every eventuality. Although I figure the odds of the report button being pressed at 4.30 during every saturday home game to be quite high - the system must be tested[6] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jetstream 0 Posted April 24, 2008 If you do that Vince then Pete will have to press it at 8.30 on a Friday night, forcing you to rush away from the Arts Centre to moderate a post.:o) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete Raven 276 Posted April 24, 2008 Although we can turn on the ability to edit posts, we have decided not to do this, certainly not for the time being. It could lead to people editing their post and then claim they never wrote something and that another poster is deliberately making up quotes and should be banned. We would not be able to return to the original version of an edited post to verify any claim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Monkey 52 Posted April 24, 2008 Wondered how long it would take for Smudger to rattle off the old "victim" nonsense... "nobody likes me, so they''ll all be pressing the ''report'' button"... wanna know something, Smudger, and I''ll whisper it... some of us don''t care what you say!! Sssshhhhhhh....Anyway, thanks for the hard work Mods, I know this has been touted many times over the years I''ve been posting on here, interesting to see how it turns out... provided everyone can behave like sensible adults, should be okay..... oh wait.... uh oh..................

King Beef 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Sorry Wiz, but you''re giving Smidger or whatever his name is the pleasure of being the subject of the topic, which is indeed praising the Mod''s for a good job they have been and still are doing, I''m sure if the mod''s see fit, they will do something about Smadge.In the meantime, well done mods for a great job, and thank you for making the board so accessible and easy (for the majority of the time!).

[/quote]Wiz, it''s almost as if you''re being purposefully awkward. You''ve been amongst others who have complained during the times where moderation has been slow and posts have taken ages to be accepted. Now you''re looking within the code of conduct, purposefully trying to find something wrong with it! As far as i see it, if Smudger behaves, the report button won''t be needed!
