Re: The transfering of posts to relevant forums

I see some posts in GD that fit the category of &quot;Post transferred/this t hread has been moved&quot;...why are they still there?


Is this rule a &quot;on again off again&quot; one ,or waiting for someone to suggest that *it* be moved...the thread that is?

just wondering...

it was not until MOI pointed out the irony that some one scurried along an moved it


like i said to Xavier, my fight is not about where posts r to go but about the apparent collusion among his chosen staff wen it comes to bad behaviour on the part of some and the others' hellbent closing of rank even wen it is sssooo obvious

I think you'll agree that it's easier for 35847 members to accurately name their 32000 threads
rather than 20 mods trying to figure out if the &quot;Usain Bolt&quot; thread does or does not belong
in Sports and Fittness. </div></div>

The forums have Mods for reason and part of the job description is to move posts to their appropriate fora.. This is not something that warrants &quot;management&quot; announcement. Xavier came to make this statement because of the recent rash of complaints ..it was not formally announce that this was a new thing.

Funny enough post are being moved from other forums besides GD all over the place without a single whisper - seamless without a itch and fuss. I think sometimes we need to step back an little and just come to the conclusion it ain't that serious.

And I agree..dam if the mods do and dam if they don't. In the past 12 yrs of me being on the board MODs have retired and new ones come in but the complaints stays the same. Remove ALL the current GD mods and put in new ones there and the cycle of habitual &quot;fight gainst mi&quot; complaints continues. </div></div>

wat iss dat line bout no spine

Re: The transfering of posts to relevant forums

In my opinion you complain far too much,all this moaning and whingeing about threads being moved is pretty silly and childish,it aint like YOU POST ANYTHING THAT IMPORTANT ANYWAY,ITS ALWAYS THE SAME TIRESOME DRIVEL.......its a bulletin board,you cant demand anything on it,playing the victim card all the time just gets tiresome and boring after a while,..not to menion egotistical,,.....it is simple,if your threads are continually being moved from GD and you dont ;ike it.......then stop posting threads in GD...problem solved...go a unnu yard an stap de fussing an fighting over nothing.........a so mi seet,who no like it bite it.

In my time on the board I have seen bigger personalities,and better people than some of you complainers who have left the board,and the board has still survived,...some of you need to get over unnu selves,it isnt all that big a deal,I am sure you,ve all got more important things in your personal lives to worry about....sheesh !

Re: The transfering of posts to relevant forums

Like I really care where they put some a unnu threads,...put dem dung the tourist forum for all i care,..put some in faith and unreasonable,....some in the the car forum......and dont bother to move some,...just press the delete button pon dem baxide.

One thing I will agree with though,moderators need to generate more discussons in their forum,other than just turning up and editing or moving threads they should try and post topics for discussions themselves....that,s what used to happen,and that should be part opf the job description.

Although I don't mind blu's threads for the most part, I have to agree that all this complaining about topic transferring is getting silly. I also agree that *some* mods could do more to breathe life into their respective forums.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Xavier</div><div class="ubbcode-body"><span style="font-style: italic">Hi Everyone

In an effort to &quot;spread some of the wealth&quot; around I asked moderators to move posts to related forum especially from GD which is sometimes top heavy. This has affected some posters more adversely than others.

I realize that this may be disrupting the flow of posts in the forum. I am revisiting this issue. As many of you know I am flexible to suggestions and feedback. I will be the first to admit if I was wrong. Ultimately this is &quot;our&quot; community so I need to hear from you.

PS: This post is not to address issue you are having with moderators.</span> </div></div>
To continue from Neutral's suggestion, would it be possible to name at least 2-3 moderators per forum? That way, when real life gets in the way, at least 1-2 other people can carry the torch so to speak.

Funny, I don't see the complaints as anything but feedback which was solicited by the topic starter.

This is indeed a bulletin board where one poster does not have any power over another (even if it is to tell them to post elsewhere). It goes both ways, the people who have a problem with the moving posts should probably not post in the fora with the propensity to be moved and the people who have a problem with the posters who are providing feedback should simply not read their posts.

Some of us are way too SANCTIMONIOUS for words.

It still is part of the job description.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Moderator Code of Conduct</div><div class="ubbcode-body">8. Please visit your forum daily (every few days on less busy forums). Most forums have at least 2 moderators. You should also be actively engaged in your forum(s) by introducing relevant topics, and taking part in others, to <span style="font-weight: bold">stimulate discussions</span>.

We'll put more ephasis on Moderator stimulation of discussion.

We aim to have a minimum of two in each forum. It doesn't always work out that way.
To make up for the shortfall we've been having guest mods in the past few months
some of whom end up staying permanently.
