I doubt many people are going to care. If everyone has the attitude I have (which is, if my section has good mods, don't care about the rest of the forum), nothing will get done, there will be no logical argument, and YCMaker will figuratively laugh at us. I refuse to believe there is [i]nothing[/i] we can do to combat this issue, but making a thread and PMing YCMaker sure as hell won't work. Maybe we should stir up something to the active Super Mods, have them post stuff in the moderator forum, and hopefully via the trickle-up effect (...haha), YCMaker or Falling Pizza get the idea that the memberbase is pissed and, I don't know, [b]do something.[/b]

Roxas has done just that. But he only said something about getting a Your Deck mod, nothing about replacing old mods.

Maybe FD. I'll PM him, then off to bed...maybe.

[Dark]

Also, what is this about Crab Helmet going on strike? Implying he actually did work before. =P

I don't know how it is going to turn out, Smesh, but PMing Supers is really the only place we [i]can[/i] start. :/

[Blake]

Crab's a girl, supposedly.

She's on Stirke? I've heard nothing of the sort.

Well, we have Pika and Roxas agreeing with us, so that's a start.

[Smesh]

I hadn't heard of this Crab Helmet strike. Mod forum thing?

Ugh, you guys are bad at this.

So, someone stated that they were a girl instead of a boy.

Then, Larxene admittedly publicly that he is male.

So, as a troll, Crab Helmet stated that he was a female.

He's still a guy, guys. <___<

[Blake]

That's why I said "supposedly". Heck, my senpai is aguy that pretends to be a girl, albeit honest when asked.

Still, I've no reason not to believe it, at this point, so referring to Crab as a She is fine by me.

[Smesh]

PM'd FD asking him to post something about replacing inactive moderators.

Off to iPod.

[Anbu-of-Sand]

..I missed something really important didn't I? Anyone care to fill me in what's happened in the last 1-2 pages? Too lazy to read through them.

[Smesh]

We want inactive mods replaced, basically.

I agree with this suggestion. A decent amount of Mods are severely inactive.

[Dark]

Essentially, I changed the viewpoint from "we want more mods" to "we want better mods". And the first step to doing that it demoting every single inactive or shitty mod we have, so a lot of them. And we cannot directly contact an admin, so we'll hope the Super Mods can deliver that information.

[Saturn of Elemia]

Mind if I join this club?

I've seen a lot of things go on around YCM in the 2+ years I've been here (and participated in some events).

[Smesh]

Of course.

Although you joined when I got on my iPod, which makes editing impossible, so I'll add you to the front page tomorrow.

[Saturn of Elemia]

Not a problems. Better late than never, eh?

The mods do need to be changed up. Honestly don't know why it was never done in the first place. It was PAINFULLY obvious. Ragnarok1945 and I saw that a while ago - and it's refreshing to see others supporting the same cause.

Wasn't it 'we want better mods' in the first place? Or perhaps I have skimmed through the front page a bit too fast.

[Smesh]

I thought I was just complaining at first, but something needs to be done.

Used to be 'we want more', now it's 'replace inactive mods'

Trust me, you weren't the only one thinking that. (You'd be surprised at all the things I've been told)

Ah. And may I ask, who is Huntar? Yes, somewhat stupid question, but I'm not familiar with all the Mods on YCM....he is a mod right?

Another thing I must ask. What is with a decent amount of the Level 5+ Members and Ragnarok1945? Was he some troll or something? Because when I first joined, he seemed like your average high Level Member giving CnC in the Realistic Cards, then, I forgot why, but right in my thread, he got reported for something and BOOM banned.

What we need, IMO, are better (or multiple) RC mods. The card maker is why most people join, it has the most topics, and Josh can't do it all by himself.

It could be a bit more organized.

Huntar was the Contest an 1on1 Mod, along with General ;D

I swear I have the whole staff memorized ._.

[Saturn of Elemia]

Huntar is/was/dunno the Card Contest Moderator.

Ragnarok1945 is the highest posting member on YCM - widely known for his fast and massive posting of cards in the CC section. However, a lot of members saw his fast posting and reviews as annoying SPAM. It started a big ordeal between him and some of the mods (especially Icy). That issue kinda resulted in his demotion from Super Mod. (Trust me, it was a big ordeal - and I was on the forefront of it). Rag eventually got permabanned (although I find it to be a rather unjust reason).

If you want to know more, you can hit me up on PM and we can talk (along with Rag).

EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS!
+1 J-Max replacement
+1 Huntar replacement

[Saturn of Elemia]

Oh, fun fact:

The issue between Ragnarok1945 and JoshIcy escalated so far that the admins were forced to step in.

He was once a Mod? O_o guess he was demoted before I joined. I've skimmed through his posts, and most of them in the Realistic Cards forum seemed constructive, but some of them did have a hint of spam in them. Highest posting member eh? That's somewhat of a shock.

Forgot, what was J-Max's original place in the Forums? Pop Culture right?
