ryoder 1,589 #10 March 25, 2011 What we *really* need is the ability to vote some *posters* off the island. There are a few in SC whose removal could make SC much more civil.

Everyone votes and the person with the most votes gets a perma-ban. It's rather useful to get rid of the most annoying people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hausse 0 #15 March 25, 2011 No worries, any forum the size of DZ.com has plenty of douche bags to last for months. It's pretty simple usually someone will nominate a person (by quoting their most annoying posts) and people then come to the unanimous conclusion that that person needs to go. I'd suppose if there's no real "winner" with a lot more votes, you'd just not kick anyone out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightingale 0 #16 March 25, 2011 Honestly, I think they're all pretty good. If there was a way to make their names green only in the forums they're moderating, it would make it less confusing, since sometimes they're jumping into the discussions for fun and sometimes they're wearing their "mod" hats. =) Especially in Speaker's Corner, we get a lot of the "You're a moderator!" "Not in this forum!" stuff I know the site software probably won't allow it, but just a thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arvoitus 1 #21 March 25, 2011 Mod is just a green font on their name. What difference does it make who has it?Your rights end where my feelings begin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiverMike 5 #22 March 25, 2011 QuoteMod is just a green font on their name. What difference does it make who has it? Because we have to have someone pretend to be an adult and keep the rest of us in line. IMHO the most important moderators are those who moderate the incidents forum. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
