Well, this is good news for a change.
Nothing against Frost or Midnight, but we have enough unnecessary mods right now as it is. Let's not make more and turn this into a bigger clusterfuck than it already is.
There needs to be a limit on how many people should have the power to edit posts and ban IPs. If you don't have the time for "modding" (doing whatever you think is necessary as a mod), don't just go and invite two of your friends into the mod circle-jerk. Resign and let the anons vote on a new mod.
In reality, we need at most three mods and hopefully at least two of them will be independent of each other and have strong enough personalities to question each other.

PS. And on the occasion that ABC, or whoever, does resign. We really should not try to fill her vacancy unless it's absolutely necessary.

for once i agree with this anon who's posting style has become pretty easy to identify.
i'm very grateful for all the wonderful work abc put in, she has done a terrific job when taengoo and stepho decided to give her the forum an run away. however……. why stay a moderator when you have almost no free time? she's taking up a space for someone who might actually be online often or someone who might possibly enjoy the job(don't think this is the case with abc)
don't agree what you said about needing less moderators. I think we could actually use a few more or actual moderators that don't disappear for days.
i understand fully that the admin team wants to keep the power in ''the family'', no one would trust any form of power to some random poster from this forum. It might be time to let go of that mindset though.

Do you really want mods to lack any consistency in what they do? Would it be fun if each of them treated the forum in a way she pleases? Like it or not but for all of us to stay sane here mods do need to act as a team. It doesn't mean current mods agree on everything. They don't. They just leave all the bitching in mods-only zone. I also would like to remind you that neither Frost, nor Orange became mods as result of invitation. It was a voting existing mods had no control over. It's only natural for old time regs to have collected more trust points than some newer members and it's natural for them to know each other. Mods here are no Illuminati.
I do agree that there is no urgent need for new mod atm though.

I understand your point anon, and believe me, my attitude towards not resigning, even tho I'm very busy these days, it's not out of greed, but because I care about this place and ppl here! I've grown very fond of the members and the idea of having a gay soshi oriented forum since TLC. Yes, I am not here everyday or 24/7 to check every move, but tbh I'm not a big fan of that, I don't share the idea of mods having to behave like cops. So within that scenario, I wanna be as helpful as possible when it comes to making decisions or coming up with ideas for the forum (with you all and fellow mods). I'm trying to give the best from me as I can. If the day comes, where I feel I can't dedicate some of my time to the forum anymore, I will definitely resign. Not the case for now.

It would be the complete opposite. They wouldn't be able to treat the forum however they wanted. The last fucking thing we need is another Unzip, again no offense intended. But she was in prime position to veto Rei's nomination for mod and she just fucked that one up. I don't know what was going on behind the scenes with her and Windmill, I really don't care, but we don't need it to happen again.
As for the invitation, um, yeah, whatever.

Seriously, it's amusing how some of you keep trying to make people believe we're some kind of dictators when it's the opposite.
Edit: *facepalm* I mean they, I'm not a mod anymore lol

That's how that happened.
*By which I mean the mods, which you are not part of anymore, so I shouldn't say you, but you still talk as if you still are, so I'm just responding in like kind.
Are we gonna keep talking about this? I have something to do. I might not have the leisure to respond.

What you see are only decisions that did come through the filter. If you get another mod in, it's not like the procedure will change. She will bitch about some proposals just like Frost bitched about some proposals and it will still stay behind the curtains. So it all just comes down to you not trusting current staff team personally. Your right. If majority here shares same feelings, they should make it known and suggest better candidates.
When it comes to invitations, your right not to believe me once again, but I recall none happening.

I disagree we need more mods, I agree with that other anon about needing less or at least no fill all "vacancies" because we have a lot already.
I agree with leaving the in-house/in-family power mindset thing but I wouldn't call it a "circle-jerk" like that other anon primarily because I detest that term.
We are OK with ihla and OD, mainly ihla, everyone is busy but I think its going OK. imo I don't see the need for more mods and can't think of a single good candidate either except perhaps for Arti who might have bouts of not stopping little disagreements (but the same could be said of the ones she's disagreeing with) but overall she cares about the forum and is more level headed than most.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deepDo you really want mods to lack any consistency in what they do? Would it be fun if each of them treated the forum in a way she pleases? Like it or not but for all of us to stay sane here mods do need to act as a team. It doesn't mean current mods agree on everything. They don't. They just leave all the bitching in mods-only zone.

Are we gonna keep talking about this? I have something to do. I might not have the leisure to respond. SA. But please note that anon posters bitching at the mod sometimes isn't enough to keep them from making the wrong decisions. For reference, see Rei. That's why there should be at least two mods that can think independently of each other and veto each other if necessary.

Seriously? If we saw the mod's constantly bickering, then the argument would change to "You mods have no cohesion." "You can't even agree on the simplest issues." Sometimes stuff like that should be bts so they can drop their "mod talk" and bitch to one another.
In addition: Is the forum in shambles and I missed the memo? What are we speaking like something HUGE went down?
Unless I did miss something.

What are we speaking like something HUGE went down? Unless I did miss something. No, not in shambles. Frost resigned from modding and Midnight wants to be a mod. Shit like that.

for once i agree with this anon who's posting style has become pretty easy to identify.
I hate to break it to you, but all white American males of middle-class background write like this.
Pffff.
x2 Have you ever even seen a white male, much less how one writes?

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Pffff.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deepDo you really want mods to lack any consistency in what they do? Would it be fun if each of them treated the forum in a way she pleases?
That's pointless here. Mods don't nominate other mods, everything we do has to be approved by users. Seriously, it's amusing how some of you keep trying to make people believe we're some kind of dictators when it's the opposite.
You're* not dictators because we keep you in line. If we were more complacent, you would have run this place to the ground. Don't take credit for being benevolent rulers. There are anons who speak up and tell you that you've overstepped your bounds. That's how that happened. *By which I mean the mods, which you are not part of anymore, so I shouldn't say you, but you still talk as if you still are, so I'm just responding in like kind. Are we gonna keep talking about this? I have something to do. I might not have the leisure to respond.
SA. But please note that anon posters bitching at the mod sometimes isn't enough to keep them from making the wrong decisions. For reference, see Rei. That's why there should be at least two mods that can think independently of each other and veto each other if necessary. Bitching at the moderators doesn't keep them in line, it makes them wanna put their hands through their screens to access yours, then wrap them around your throath, ban you from real life and make a real ''Rei situation'' happen.

Rei is a freak. She's not the norm. You can't really use her as an example.

Why do you think that stuff needs to stay behind the curtains? Other than mods frequently dealing with sensitive information that is not meant for public use, they still have to behave in consistent manner to avoid major mess here. There are a lot of little and bigger decisions to be made on the forum every single day. If discussions on each of them would be held between everyone here at once, very few would be done and mod matters would be bigger wank sources than trolls.
As of now all important decisions are discussed in this thread. Daily routine and security issues are kept private. Also some of the proposals that are put up for discussion here are coming through staff room filter first to throw away most hopeless ones and save everyone some frustration.
You can add in as many new mods as you wish, it would still come to the similar scheme naturally.

If it's impossible to include the rest of the forum on every single one of your decision-making processed, you better find a way or else you don't make any decisions. The only thing you get to decide is who to ban because we can't and are not supposed to see anybody's IPs.

Just for an example, you don't come in here and declare you've decided among yourselves you're going to add a new mod and you already have an idea who it's going to be. If people didn't bitch about it, there wouldn't even be a vote.
