There are 2 sides to every story. You can't look at the Ying without the Yang, the good without the bad. I'm not looking at your view point as a compliant. I'm discussing the other side of the issue. But the way things are around here, people take offense to offering another view or see it as "attacking" them. But if you think I'm viewing your suggestion as a COMPLAINT maybe I am. (see what I did there?) but I'm not, we're talking and discussing about the issues. Like a debate.

There's nothing there to ponder. You just spoke in a circle and tried to make it sound intelligent.

It didn't work.

There are so many great posters that are here every day and really know what the Ron and Fez show is all about, as well as what ronfez.net is all about.

Those are the kinds of people that should be given a shot.

And those that have been mods should be happy to hand the reigns over to the young blood.

They're not being punished or getting demoted; it's just that their time is up.

No shame. They're not being "fired."

I really don't understand what the objection is.

power or the sense of it

they almost feel (some) that they're closer to the show bc of it

others, like fallon just keep the peace and do a real good job, it never gets personal

You could be right.

I just know many posters (including myself) who were mods at one time and decided to return to just being regular posters after awhile, so I can't really fathom the people who cling to their modship for dear life like it actually means something.

It seems like a veteran who plays until he's 44 and forces a kid to toil in the minors because he's too selfish to retire.

You make a great point. Maybe one day that poster will get that shot. This board has seen mods come and go such as FMJeff, the Chairman, the Hordeking, Carter, etc. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Well almost....but it's still RonFez.net to me.

What about EffMeBoobs, Gwen, Blowhard...all people who were mods and returned to regular posting status.

Understood, but be honest Bobby - would you be devastated if you were asked to step aside so someone new could become a mod?

I have no desire to see you step down, by the way. You're a very hands-off type, which I like. But I'm just throwing out the scenario.

Would you quit the board in a rage with a "how dare they!" attitude, or would you still be here every day hanging with your internet buddies and breaking balls?

Maybe they'd even be up for a change?

I've thought about. I actually have. We've decided against it. Despite the fact that you bring it up over and over again, there are very few as staunchly in support of this as you are. The majority just don't seem to care. This is either very important to you (or your go to cause when you want to stir the pot) but that's not enough to get us to change policy.

Shouldn't you be doing what's best for the site and not waiting for the masses to beat down your door with the idea?

You really think it's OK to leave the same people in charge for years and years and years and rarely give newer, younger, fresher members a chance?

Whatever...it's ultimately the admins decision. I just think it's a win-win all around.

I'm not saying I'm waiting for the masses. I'm not in favor of implementing this policy. Neither does Jon. We have asked mods to step down in the past where we felt it appropriate. I'd rather use that policy rather than be forced into changing the staff at set intervals just because you want us to.

It's not meant to be confrontational. It may seem that way because this gets exhausting. This has been considered several times. We've decided against it, but you bump this thread up every few months so it can be hashed out again and again. I understand there's a lot you don't like about this place, and I agree with some of your comments, but after this has been discussed so many times, it really feels like a dead issue.

Maybe you can reach PanterA at the post office and see his thoughts on the subject.

how about forming a review board made up of site members?
every three months or so they get together with Mikeyboy and Jon
to review each Mods performance.

if a Mod is found by the majority to be "lacking" the board
votes on whether or not they continue as a Mod. If the vote leads to a Mod stepping
down the review board determines who will take their place.

or just put Gvac in charge of the Mods

Between me, you, and the lamppost there's at least one mod on the staff here who would never pass a sanity test. They're off their rocker and can barely function in the real world. As long as they log in once or twice a month, though, their gig here is safe.

It just doesn't seem right, especially when there are people here who are worthwhile contributors and would do an excellent job in their stead.

That's all I'm saying.

Mods can also edit and/or delete posts and threads.

It's pretty disconcerting when you see words on your posts that you never typed.

Okay --

Go for it.

Feel free to say exactly what happened with you and Fallon. Not generally. Specifically.

At least as it was relayed to me, thread titles of posts you started one night were edited so "Gvac Thread" or something like that was included in the title. Which, I guess, was a reference to how recognizable your threads are just by the title (which, yes, they are), or maybe it was a reference to the fact that many of your threads follow a certain pattern (also true). It seems to me that it was pretty clearly ball-busting, and I don't think the average person would think you put that there yourself. Opinions will differ, of course. Obviously you took some offense to it. I understand. Even if the intent wasn't to offend, things people do and say are often taken differently than they are intended. I talked to Fallon. He says not going to do anything like that anymore. You also seem to think that Tenbatsuzen has Fallon like a puppet on a string doing his bidding, and that he was behind all of this. I think that's a little extreme, and I honestly have no idea if Tenbatsuzen was even involved. This isn't an attempt to defend his actions, but just an attempt at full disclosure because the way you have hinted at this incident makes it seem, at least to me, worse than it was.

I don't want a fucking period or exclamation point added to a post of mine if I didn't originally put it there.

I don't want ANYTHING attributed to me that I didn't write.

That's just how I am.

I'm not a jerkoff kid who posts pics of himself smoking weed all over the internet or some dumb chick who puts nude pics of herself all over the internet, never thinking of the repercussions of my actions.

Once something is out there, it's out there. I don't want it changed in any fucking way.

But again, that's besides the point.

Regardless of the unfortunate incidents I've had with that particular mod, I think term limits are a good idea anyway.

Okay --

Go for it.

Feel free to say exactly what happened with you and Fallon. Not generally. Specifically.

At least as it was relayed to me, thread titles of posts you started one night were edited so "Gvac Thread" or something like that was included in the title. Which, I guess, was a reference to how recognizable your threads are just by the title (which, yes, they are), or maybe it was a reference to the fact that many of your threads follow a certain pattern (also true). It seems to me that it was pretty clearly ball-busting, and I don't think the average person would think you put that there yourself. Opinions will differ, of course. Obviously you took some offense to it. I understand. Even if the intent wasn't to offend, things people do and say are often taken differently than they are intended. I talked to Fallon. He says not going to do anything like that anymore. You also seem to think that Tenbatsuzen has Fallon like a puppet on a string doing his bidding, and that he was behind all of this. I think that's a little extreme, and I honestly have no idea if Tenbatsuzen was even involved. This isn't an attempt to defend his actions, but just an attempt at full disclosure because the way you have hinted at this incident makes it seem, at least to me, worse than it was.

This should be in the FAQ.

I'm not a jerkoff kid who posts pics of himself smoking week all over the internet or some dumb chick who puts nude pics of herself all over the internet, never thinking of the repercussions of my actions.

Could you please be the jerkoff kid who post nude pics all over the internet?

Read my post on the previous page. I asked why you were bringing it up.

All I did was answer a question as to what other powers a mod has besides issuing warnings and banning members.

You decided to go into detail about an incident I had last week.

You suggested that editing people's post is something mods on this board do, rather than something they can do. I am adamantly against editing people's posts in the manner you suggest. However, if people are busting balls, and the editee is in on the joke, it's a different story (kind of like how personal attacks aren't personal when they come from your friends just having fun. That is why I wanted to shed some light on "the incident". I can't speak for Fallon, but I'm guessing you took it more personally than it was intended. You don't want to be a part of it, so that's the end of it.
