FAO Mods

I sent an email to a mod of this forum in regards to the poor state of it currently. Is something going to be done regarding this?

Basically and I'm sure other members will agree, that the community has gone down the drain and without a mod 'prescence' people can get away with more than any other forum. Even though this is the third biggest forum on OCuK (behind GD and Motors) it's not treated as that.

There needs to be more prescence and more moderating on the front line (i can't tell what goes on in the back of the forum, so offer opinions on that). After Mistadave left, his void has yet to be filled.

I can't honestly tell you the last time I saw a mod post in here, it adds to the prolems which the forum is having.

Please try to help the forums, we need them to florish, else this part of the community will fade away.

McDaniel / Memphis... meaning?

Do you agree or not that the forum is in a state of decline? Please post your thoughts

Behave, that's not the not what the intention of the thread is all about, it's about trying to get some mod prescence in here.

Anyone got some links to threads or posts that they believe are breaking the rules?

Any of the forza thread for example, to which I have sent RTM's, sent the links within the email I originally sent,

Really?

He only gets it thrown back at him because he prompts it IMO. He now has a reputation which will be hard to shake off.

Not true, he does get picked on in a fair few threads. Some of his dicussions are valid, but yet dismissed.

But do you not think that this is now because of his reputation he created for himself?

I'd call it a mix of overly aggressive/defensive/having something to prove.

Possibly, but surely that's more of a fault for the other people, who see that it's Mr Men who posts, then just jumps on him for no reason.

But this isn't a thread about him in particular, it's a thread about the whole Console forum and how it needs to be looked into

Aye, that's a problem now, but my point was that he didn't just get picked on randomly.

I don't, but surely you see my point too?

Anyway, enough about him, back on topic chaps?

Maybe not randomly, but victimised no?

Ninja edit there Kreeee, back on topic indeed.

Of course I understand that. Most of the threads I've been linked to were just fairly amateur debates/arguments about which console plays a game at its best. Those types of threads, whilst annoying for people who don't own the other console, are perfectly within the rules. Until someone steps over the line and throws a personal insult at someone there's no moderation to be done.

For the record I own a Xbox 360 but I'm not fanatical about it at all. I last played on it about a month ago. I will be buying a PS3 as well nearer the end of the year when there are some games I want to play.

Indeed, welcome. Best of luck.

back to forza thread for example, there were numerous insults e.t.c thrown at each other, and just because there is no active moderation, it was ignored and the people got away with it.

Hopefully that will change now.
