But if you have lots of mods, thats when you start to get lazy people who are inactive. People think "oh its ok if I don't go on today, because there are 20 other mods that can take over", which is the wrong attitude to have.

If people are working full time or are very busy, then they shouldn't apply, simple as. I'm not saying be on 24/7, but you should be on daily if you're a moderator, for at least an hour in total depending on how many other mods there are.
Everybody knows that they won't get paid to moderate, so that shouldn't really be a factor.

When people apply, they know what they're applying for, and know what will come with the responsibilities of moderating, so they should do their very best.

totally agree ^^

was trying to calm it down as i respect lee and hustlers and didn't want to see it fold.

as for pointless threads the admin not had problems with them so i don't see why mods should either, those mods with a sense of banter in them will tell you its not meant to be pointless but a laugh and a giggle.

lets face it.. the mods and admins that are now still on the job.. are the right men for the job

agree ?

if i was to name 4 moderators of my choice to join the team would be this

damee
jack_pot
dgeneratio
whocares8x8

4 great guys who know how it all works

add a few more...

blutch
iamtheworst
virtuoso107
2good

blutch because of computers, and other 3 purely for banter.

but shame all 4 isn't as active as they used to be (well i see 2good around alot).

I don't think there needs to be anymore mods other jack_pot, I say this because his knowldge on computers and that is good, I made a thread last night asking for advice and he helped out, I don't beleive any mod or admin could have done that,.,

Dgen everytime you type banter i cringe, Because i don't think you know what the word means, Or how to have it. Your craic is what i used to do when i was six.

P.s Is gemma not a mod anymore?

^ nope

craic, whats that mean? soz i have understanding problems.

Although mods need to be friendly and likeable, you have to look at other aspects as well, such as;

Activity
Experience
Computer/Internet Knowledge

I agree with some of the people mentioned above though for being new moderators, in particular Damee and yourself.

You're joking about wanting this guy to be a moderator, right? I mean why would you actually employ someone who openly tells people that he is so bad? Complete joke to even say that James.

Everyone keeps on that jackpot should be a moderator and i agree, but he's obviously got things against him hence why he has been rejected, you have to have a clean record to become a member of staff, and jack obviously hasnt!

The fact of people saying openly on forums "Oh this user should become mod because of these reasons" is not going to help that's for sure.

IMO i have got to admit some people that are on the mods team are great i.e baff , budweiser and adam_147 plus some very good admins like clooneman and fastboysam . But the thing is we need to get a few more people on to the moderating team for the time zone as at 2 am in the morning there is no mods on . Plus i see lots of offences of the games i.e swearing , cheating ranks , multiaccounting

I do lol...

Well you can report them users, admin can then deal with it accordingly.

indeed damee but the thing is i dont have a very good laptop at that time , it wont let me open pms but i wait for admin/mods so i can tell them but then im off at 3am so luckbut i always tell someone to stop as it is against the rules

should be more mods, just to accept my new pic

i had to wait so you can too

Well, assuming 8 mods are each on for an hour a day, that leaves 16 hours where there is no mod on. I don't like that idea. Either mods have to be online more than that (hard ask) or there have to be more mods.

The report person feature is good, but if someone is shouting racist obscenities in the forum with no moderator online to boot them, the system has failed.
