I agree with Calum, i could understand calum being worried about me modding when i first started and i have done 1 major fuck up, but that was a accident and i did own up.
I was worried about some of the other people that i wont mention moderating, and macman would be a good addition to the MES Modding team. I still think the Quirk has good values on freedom of speech, and also has a sense of humor. He would by far in my opinion be the first person I would add if i where the webmaster. On the second hand there is Tux who is also a very good member, contributing lots.
However i don't like the attitude of the mods sometimes:
example (warning - large images, not for dial up)
Your lucky, I responded to the Webmasters request for people who wanted to mod after seeing it. I actually asked not to moderate the lounge, and i would have made that irresponsible abuse of the forum right again by linking the images. That thread is the biggest signs of ignorance on the forum.
On a good note, its nice to see that after the Linux/Unix incident (which i will refer to as the "Big Fuck-up"), that the moderators and forum members found a solution. (Maybe its because i moderate there
).
Our goal is not to create a political community, but to bash Microsoft. But moderating is needed but is also not needed because of the current lack of trolls. However there have been other times where we have laid back no expecting trolls where they have appeared. I think a zero tolerance act against them will fix them. Fuck there freedom to speak, if they want that... they can goto another forum, or create there own.
A scottish dude can do it so anybody can. A
SkRiPt0r can do it so why not do that if your a troll.
Productivity should be our first proirity.
