is it just me or is it crazy that there are 2 mods for every 3 users right now?

seems a little overkill to me.

would be nice if they would offer info rather than just police the big bad FMAS.

just sayin'


:rollface:
 
This site has over 200,000 users and about 27 staff members. I think your math is off. ;)

The list that see at the top of your forum (Moderated by: Agu, Anemone, beerguy, bertoni, Carlos, DgenR8, EdKruzel, geo, griss, mhurley, Nanook, traveller7)is the list of moderators for all, several hundred, of our regional/club forums; not just FMAS.

Honestly, we'd all prefer to not have to do any moderation in the club forums at all. The problem occurs when folks believe that they're above the rules that they agreed to when they created their account here. RC is what it is because of those rules. The boards that pop-up, with no moderation, because ugly free-for-alls that wither and die. The best way to avoid moderation is to avoid attracting attention.

Cheers
 
i agree, moderation is needed, just with moderation. its funny that the mods are sooo busy with all 200,000 users and all the different clubs yet it took only 7 minutes for a mod to reply with 2 paragraphs.

i guess the rest of the site is slow.
 
thats why i don't break the rules, just learned as an American that its good to question "the man" sometimes.
 
jimbo buddy why o why!

Lets just enjoy what we do and do what we do.
Seems to me u have to much time on your hands or u are way to bored to be looking into this things.
If u place half of your dedication to other endeavors such as reefing even perhaps work u may find life to be lots more interesting.

BTW I spend wayyy more time than u looking at nonsense but at least its reef realted LOL.

must be nice to have plenty of money for new things and not have to look on here for deals, kinda stinks to see other reefer selling stuff cheap that i may or may not be interested in only to have it deleted by the mods.
perhaps you would like to give me some free frags, you will get alot of enjoyment in life if you give to others

In all fairness, that's the fault of folks not wanting to play by the same rules that the rest of us abide by. It's not a moderators fault; although that's who generally gets the blame.

:lol:

We do actually. There's an awful lot that you never see because it happens behind the scenes. Banning isn't generally the first step.
 
Jimbo buddy- I guess it is what it is. Ingnorance is blessed.

Many many others get and then some- sometimes u just have to delete people from your list. If I look back at how much I've given over the years in this hobby i can build 5 tanks!.
BTW this guys are trying to do their job- there's plenty of forums out there. If I break the rules i expect to be reprimended, at least that's the way NORMAL society wroks.



Have a good day and happy reefing!;)
 
just wondering, is there a link to the rules? i'm pretty sure i agreed to them, but doubt i ever read them?


and gasman, feel free to pm me when ever you want to give something away
 
pretty vague rules, seems like the whole sponsor feedback forum violates the commercial post rules. i wonder how often they get moderated.
 
27 mods, and 2 of them posted here within an hour. coincidence or not. seems like there must be a whole lot of other forums not getting looked at. goes back to moderating with moderation

Now, let's get back to reef keeping and the other folks' problems stay their problems. ;)
