I was saying forums in general are corrupt. Every one I go to is. Things mods let slide when a person is their friend, bannings that aren't deserved, deletions, popularity contests etc. It's EVERYWHERE.


This one is pretty good. No overmoderation and the undermoderation has been taken care of.

The first thing that came to mind was Moderators for Moderators!

Real time chatting is too much like real life social communication and is of no interest to me. :)

Yeah. I tried it, and just got ignored. At least my spam
is stuck in everyone's craw on the boards.

Hale_Bopp was saying the forum is corrupt. I did not see her say outright that the moderators are corrupt...though I could be wrong, maybe that is what she was inferring, but I don't think so... :? I think you will always get one or two less than stellar mods among a group anyway.


You mean corrupt as in how people often break forum rules and get away with it? Then yes, in that respect, this forum is corrupt. To be honest, this forum is one of the more immature ones I have ever been across. But hey, if you guys don't mind or care, then there is nothing to complain about. However it does make this forum more vulnerable and prone to getting in trouble.

The immaturity is fun. I think it gives us some place to
play. It doesn't seem to spill too badly into the more cerebral
posts either.

Alex. That would explain why mods end up banned, no? I just hope
that I'm not so incompetent to manage any real harm.

Alex is supposed to be the moderator for moderators. But to be honest he's the most corrupt out of the lot, so fat lot of use that is.

He needs to find a mature, experienced member to do that for him.

So, it's fair to say that everybody hates everybody else on WP at this point?

I don't hate anyone here. Gotten a little pissed a couple of times (no - I don't mean drunk), but I'd just walk away, rather than push things. Might not have, if I weren't a mod. Everyone else seems pretty reasonable though.

Joke or not, it was working fine with all the hate until you showed up and made that trend hard to maintain. :P
