wooooooooooh tea partay

Sephiroth seems to be doing a good job in Your Decks.

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

Well~ You do what you think is necessary. If you think YCMaker still needs to finish with what he started then go ahead, PM him again. If you think otherwise, let him be.

Vooooote~

Also, what's this about what YCMaker started? *has been very inactive for the last few days*

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

YCMaker contacted Smesh and Tainted Black requesting suggestiong for modship and he's made the change of Sephiroth becoming a mod for Your Deck (whether that has anything to do with us or not) and has done nothing else.

[Shadow Zero]

Hmm...I wonder what that may mean. I see one of three possibilities.

1: He hasn't gotten to it yet.

2: He doesn't see the need to add any more mods anywhere else and has decided to stop where he is for the time being, unless and until he sees a need for more mods.

3: He s either to lazy to make the decision right now, or has but is just to lazy to implement it right now.

...Okay, so technically that is four, but you get my meaning.

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

Yepper~
Thats why I'm leaving it up to TB to decide whether or not he needs to PM him or not :3

[Blake]

Me? ._.

I'm leaving it up to Smesh, honestly.

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

Fatteh .-. then don't wonder whether or not we should PM him ~

D:

[Blake]

I am wondering... but, from that PM sent before this thread was born, to everything, Smesh has been the leader.

[Shadow Zero]

A fair point to be sure, but what of those of us who would be trusted to lead in his absence when he is not here? Would that not mean that he would trust those of us with that power to speak up on such matters? And are you not one of those people Black-san?

[Smesh]

I don't even know whats going on in my own club.

what needs Smesh approval?

[CinnamonStar]

On mods, we're discussing getting an additional mod for CC but IMO we could do with one for Clubs and Questions...but that would be all.=/ The FIRST thing we'd need to do though would be to teach some of the current mods how to be more active and how to do a better job, not just some half-assed modding that consists of flaming and egos. Because most of them are just crap right now.

Oh and: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/226814-%E2%9C%BFmake-over-suggestions%E2%9C%BF/

Yes, yes, C&O needs a mod~

And well, it would be nice if the enire mod team were good, and active, but that's the main problem, they're not >.>

An almost fully new team would be good. (almost fully)

But they too may get bored when they do and leave their mod jobs and stuff.

[Fusion X. Denver]

You know, I'm sure the inactive mods won't really care if their modship is revoked >__>
Maybe YCMaker and other mods could start scouting?
2 C&O mods I can think of are Tainted Black and Clair.

[Blake]

Ugeh?! M-me? ._.

I dunno, dude...

[Zextra]

Definitely you!
I mean, you're active in how many clubs? Plus, you seem to have plenty of "leadership qualities"

[Fusion X. Denver]

What Zextra said.
You're well-liked.
You're not afraid to be strict on rules (*points to R.P.820*).
You're open and friendly to everyone.
You're very active.
Those seem like the qualities mods look for dude.

[Blake]

.... o//.//o

STOP. >_< I dunno... And you are making me embarassed...

[Fusion X. Denver]

[s]Take the damn compliment.[/s]
You're just being modest >__>
But the same applies to Clair.
...
Actually, I don't know how she is on rules, but she's good with the other 3.

Maybe you're not right for the job. We certainly don't want a mod who doesn't believe in himself/herself.

[Fusion X. Denver]

But if he's given the job regardless, then he'll buckle down and go through with it.
Black's just modest, he knows we're right.

[Blake]

I believe in myself... but I don't want a big head, either. Heck, I'm not even gonna let the YMB give me more than a slight pickup.

The problem is that you grow bored easily of modding. Just like people grow bored of most sites, including this one. The first days you're all over the moon about gaining your modship but after a while it becames a hassle and after more time you may lose interest. MAY but doesn't have to be.

That's why I think only a few of the mods are really constant in the current team, it's normal that you lose interest but in that case, go freaking tell us.=/ If you have a section like...ahem Music, then no one is going to care, but if you have something like CC or General...then disappearing and coming when you want should just NOT happen. I mean, how many of the current mods have been in the team and are still active (minus YCMaker and Falling Pizza)? I'm not saying that it's bad, it's to be expected but then the admin should do the right thing and know that maybe 3 or 4 are going to stay constant and active for a long time, for the rest it's going to be a team with a lot of changes.

[Blake]

I just want to be a mod to do what I can. I know it would be a lot of work. I also know I'm not the first draft pick for most people, so I don't EXPECT it to fall on my lap.

I agree. I think the low amount of active mods is insane, really. We need them in many sections.

Well, I doubt I'd get tired of it. If I'm given a job like that I'd stick to it. I like it here. Yea it can be boring, what with my cards getting fewer and fewer comments and the RPs I join dying like cruzy, but still~!

Well~ Perhaps we should have brought that to YCMaker's attention as well. Demote those Mods that resigned or deal with those mods that are inactive (not necessarily demoting them but doing something) to get things running again. But still, what's the point of them telling you "hey Im going to be active whenever I want" if (a) you cant really do anything about it, and ( b ) if they most likely cant tell you. I mean being inactive isn't always a conscious decision. When I go inactive for periods it's not because I planned to, things happen, I get distracted, I just forget, etc. And I just dont come back for a while. I mean if they know they're going to be leaving then yea tell you or something but otherwise they cant really do that if it's not a conscious action can they?
