New Mods

[Guest JoshIcy]

Btw: TyrantKing is doing Lets Plays on YT a lot... He's having too much fun to care for YCM.

Would you mind replying to my statement please?

[OmegaWave]

I support.

To be honest' date=' there are some [b']better[/b] members that deserve it.

 

Fixed. And Agreed.

[Guest JoshIcy]

Do you active mods think that new mods eventually could take you your power over this site? I don't see what's your problem with new mods. Plus 1 or 2 new active mods would also unburden you from the "work" you carry out.

 

Umm... Ive said before. We're either looking for new mods currently (not exactly out of the question), or other mods are gonna get active.

[SmallieBigs]

Oh' date=' this thread is atrocious.

We need 1 or 2 new mods for CC, Card Contests especially.

Other than that, we obviously need to get rid of the mods like Tyrantking and TotalObelisk, bot otherwise it's fine.

What iHop said made so much sense my head exploded because of how much win there was. Tyrantking can stay he hasn't been inactive as long as TotalObelisk I think he was last online a couple weeks ago. We need a Ledgendary card maker to take over Card Contests and General may need another Mod just because of the departure of our beloved Napoleon.

But why do you wont to count on people, which have shown that their often absent or not interested in the forums due to their long inactivity? I can't see a logic in this. You should get some new mods that are reliable and mature. (this does not mean that inactive mods are not mature enough)

There wasnt a need at the time, and Im being optimistic. Is that a crime?

[Brushfire]

HP Doom: You speak like we need to eliminate inactive mods to appoint new mods. This is not the case.

[DL]

I can't honestly say wether mods are active or inactive, cause I don;t know many.

 

I do know I haven't seen J-Max anywhere since mid-december, I think.

 

He was a good mod, but I've also seen some mods that I dislike how they do things, but I know they do it for the right reasons or to improve YCM. Thus I do not get mad or pissed, or kick some random puppy.

 

I don't really think we need new mods ATM. Of course, part of me is saying we do neednew mods, but I ust don't see a NEED. A want, yes. Need, no.

Do you want to endure the financial crisis with optimism O_o?? You're a big dreamer then

 

@Brushfire: No, the best solution would be getting the inactive mods to be active again and appointing new mods since I can not see a negative aspect in having 2 or 3 more active mods, wether they're old or new.

[Guest]

It has been explicitly acknowledged that we need new moderators, at least for one area, and recommendations have been made. Don't hold your breath on when YCMaker and Falling Pizza will actually produce the new appointments, though.

Don't make references when they make no sense and/or are stupid. The financial crises couldn't be more different from the situation at YCM. >_> And even then, it's a lot better to be optimistic about the crises than being like "OMG I CAN'T AFFORD ANYTHING I'M GUNNA DIEEEEE".

 

And if they aren't ready to be active, or are unable to then that plan immediately fails. Them still being on the list for when they can come back is fine.

I've always wondered if they cared about you making comments like this.

There are rules against leaking secret information, but I doubt that "At an unspecified time, unspecified moderators have requested that unspecified users be promoted to moderators of unspecified sections, but these appointments may or may not ever actually happen, and if they do happen then the time at which they will happen is unspecified" even qualifies as information.

By this logic. I should have been demoted ages ago. But I havent. So it's obviously alright to let out info, just not specifics.

Well, that's a real truth. Optimism is a better way to endure a crisis than the way of thinking you brought up with this funny example, even if the crisis is small like the "crisis" here on YCM or huge like the Financial Crisis. But you can't solve a crisis with pure optimism, that's also a real truth. You need to make considered actions.

Old mods as well as new mods can be unable to be active, that's a risk you have to be ready to accept. Who can guarantee you that an inactive mod that could become active again stays active? Same goes for new mods.

lol I didn't say you were wrong, did I? All I want to say is that waiting for old mods to take actions requires too much time.

I was referring to you saying "I highly doubt YCMaker or FP would listen to us" rather than the releasing info.

When did he say that? He didn't say, "Don't hold your breath on whether YCMaker and FP will actually make the promotions," he said don't hold your breath on when they will happen.

Not directly, but he implied that YCMaker and FP wouldn't do it (also, he said nothing relating to time, he said don't expect that they'll produce the promotions).

Like I said before, becoming a mod is like a gift; you never know when you are going to get it!!!

[Azmodius]

I support. The mods are not active enough.

[PowerlinX]

I wish I could be a mod, but that'll probably never happen.

 

I agree, we need more mods No, we need mods that interact with the members. On the forum team page, of the 22 mods, only about 10 I know actually interact with the members. I think YCMaker should interact more with the members as well as more mods.

Unless you constantly make "subtle" begs about that you want to be a mod.

The ones you like anyway.

The fact that you started off your post like this and meant it seriously pretty much solidified that fact.

"I don't like that I can't see half of the moderation team on at once. I find it completely impossible that any of them live in completely different time zones from me, are busy with work, school, or anything that affects them personally and causes them to not access a computer. I want the entire administrative team to spend most of their time on this forum no matter what, I they had better think of a way so that they can all be on at the same time. It's also totally impossible that some of the moderators have actually quit and yet are still listed as being one."

I concur. PowerlinX, the mods live in different time zones. Adv. Raver lives in Britian, so he cannot be on around this time usually. Darth IDK, but certain times he's busy. You, you live somewhere, but unless you fail at life & have no job, you CANNOT be on at every freaking moment. You gotta give them props, though. They are able to balance the hard work of YCM with real life. So, just shut up & stay like that.
