New mods are needed for GD

[LawL]

I've had this bright idea that the mods should actually be regular posters instead of what we have now where MKJ is the only one who is here more than once a month.

GD mods should be:

MKJ, seremtan, andyman, obsidian.

[GONNAFISTYA]

Agreed. These days tnf, PhoeniX and JuggerNaut are almost never here and the members you suggested have functional brains.

[mrd]

Sounds OK to me.

[losCHUNK]

Sounds good

MKJ should be bumped up to admin, so he can help maintain the site and update it. Then he should appoint me global mod.

[Captain]

If elected, I promise to put a chicken in every pot and a Buick in your garage.

[MKJ]

Quite. I have been moving and manually deleting posts all night last night while the missus was watching 3 eps of law&order back to back, and the spam posts came faster than I was able to delete.
Moving a post is not a problem but there were bots posting 8 times per thread and I can't delete users.

Thanks for all the mod work

if u wer here id massage ur testicles

[MKJ]

Btw thanks for the post reporting, it makes filtering out the bogus threads in the mod panel a lot easier

[LawL]

For those who missed it:



And that was after 13 other spam threads had already been moved to A&M.

[MKJ]

4th from the top: 'u mad?'

Silly Russians

Do mods have access to the DB back-end or only the phpBB front-end? I work in Business Intelligence, if you guys want I can probably help out.

[Eraser]

Only PHP front end. Oh, and knowing your selects and joins doesn't make you special.

Cheers MKJ

Didn't know post reporting helped that much, will bear in mind for the future

[Doombrain]

So out of the 4 mods, only MKJ has done anything to clean up the spam?

strong mod team.

[MKJ]

Aye. Strong fail though, you can select all reported posts but you can't delete all reported posts. Bother.

[Don Carlos]

You are my hero MKJ

[losCHUNK]

can we have QwFix back yet ?

I'd like to see at least one extra admin and a couple of extra global mods. Our current admins and global mods seem to be mostly away. While the bulk of the spam is in GD, just changing mods here won't help in the other sections. I've been taking care of LEM and Announcements, but there's little I can do elsewhere except report stuff.

While we're at it, can we replace roughrider as LEM mod (who is rarely here) with cityy? Sure the Germo may try to take over Europe again, but I'm pretty sure I can bitch slap him back into submission when needed. Or if I'm a global mod, replace me with cityy. It's all cool.

[GONNAFISTYA]

I am the leader of this mod clan.

goingtofuckya for GD mod

[obsidian]

Didn't GFY used to be a mod?

[Transient]

I agree that a mod/admin shuffle should take place.

Why not make all forums locked to new accounts except The Void? The mods there can determine if they're bots or not and can open the rest of the forums for them.
