JoeTheZombie said:What?!!? This board has mods?
Boards of this size really need dedicated mods that are on at different time blocks. Other boards I frequent have hourly shifts each mod is assigned.
I guess one of the main concerns is what one considers a post that needs to be edited/locked/deleted. One problem is the vast array of age groups that visit this forum. Older gamers may see some of the younger participant's posts as incoherent or ignorant. Younger gamers may see some of the older participant's posts as rude.
Other than the official Nintendo forum, WiiChat has the most background noise of any of the gaming boards I visit. I've found myself spending more and more time at Cheap Ass Gamer, or the Nintendo World Report.
This board is actually fairly small, compared to others.
But even though we have enough mods, they are not dedicated at all whatsoever(Most, not all).
I have never seen more than one or two mods even online at the same time, and during a one day period, the majority of time goes by without any mods being online.
I do dissagree with you though, about the age thing.
You are right for the most part, but i've found that some of the older posters are the ones that tend to break rules and such, just because they are not very familiar with forum ettiquette.
For example, compared to most on the board I would be considered fairly young (16), but as of yet I havn't seen a single person (especially mods) who cares more about the rules, and making sure the noobs learn how to behave.
This is simply because I am a moderator on other forums, and have been for a while.
I hate trying to tell people what there doing is wrong, yet having no power to back myself up.
Thats why i really wish i was a mod here, so i could help turn it around.
FFS this place doesn't even have a Stickied "Forum Rules - Read before posting" post.
