  • MrsG - they're being looked at. So don't worry.

    I was just curious why Twists was brought up and yet the other wasn't. ;hmm

    Thanks for clarifying Twist.

    As far as possible, I don't mod anymore.

    I asked because there were at least two active moderators on the thread.

    It doesn't really have to do with who does or doesn't find things offensive.

    I don't find swearing offensive, apart from in certain company, but am happy to see it banned on here.

    We have always tried to get users to respond to posts, and not make personal digs at other users, and I hope that continues.

    Luke, if you thought a comment was personal, then as a mod you should deal with it, or ask another mod to, regardless of whether it bothered you or not.
  • I've asked the other mods. I did it earlier. Just waiting their input.
  • Cuz - I'm not bothered. Otherwise I would've just modded you. ;wink

    Forget I said it. I'll delete twists post if I don't hear back from the other mods soon.
  • Mrs Grey, you don't think we're a special club?
    Where did you get that idea from what I posted? Referring to the comment 'the fans are special' I said
    Trite old cliche, imo.

    The fans aren't special, they are just fans, like at any football club.
    Which I stand by.
  • Luke

    Well, in my case because it was the only thing in the post, which rather made it stick out, and because I don't see how it could be left without being challenged, if we are sticking to site policy.

    Since Twist has apologised, and assured cuz there was nothing personal, I don't see that anything else needs to be done, but I do, personally, think that moderators should look out for that kind of thing, and not simply ignore it, or wait for someone else to be 'bovvered'.
  • For what it's worth, I don't think Twist had any malicious intent, and by the same token I don't think cuz took it personally either
  • Cuz - I'm not bothered. Otherwise I would've just modded you. ;wink

    Whether or not someone is offended shouldn't affect the modding.

    Just to clarify.

    Grey - I had noted it.

    Even though I commented not long after the post, it doesn't mean I 1) saw the Zzzzzz comment anx 2) had time af that exact moment to amend and PM, and I like to do both when modding, not edit then PM hours later.

    Then twist apologised, so I left it but stil brought it up with the mod team for review.

    I know that bothered levels have no impact on whether a post is modded.

    ;ok
  • baracks

    Probably true on both counts, but that doesn't mean it didn't break site rules.

    Just like we ask users not to post a ;doh at a comment, so we ask them not to make personal comments.

    Hard to see Zzzzz as anything other than a suggestion that a post is 'boring', which is not on.

  • OK, Luke.

    I'm really not trying to 'get' at anyone, but as I put in the recent thread, I think we all of us need to make extra efforts to try to be considerate towards each other, and posts which could be considered 'personal' (regardless of actual intent) should be avoided.
  • Have done a bit of cleaning up on this thread. If your post seems different to what you posted, it's because I've edited it as a knock on effect of the initial moderation.
  • MrsG - they're being looked at. So don't worry.

    Just my opinion, but I think it could be two things....

    1) Twists post could suggest Cuz was "boring"? i.e sending him to sleep, same old
    2) Cuz used a "lol" at the end to lighten up his post a little?

    I'm not taking sides or anything......just saying.

    You all do a great job IMO

    ;ok

  • Not sure if anyone else has noticed, but I think Ham's having a meltdown...
  • Izzy - why would the like/cheer thing bother me?

    We all know I must be top of that leaderboard. ;biggrin
    Of course we all know that

    #ModLife
    #Perks

    ;biggrin
  • Izzy ;ok

    It was more to do with what has been championed of later (rightly) to stop with the digs about the previous manager.

    Cuz was basically expecting me to defend twist, almost as if we were both Sam OUT members. Well that's how I took it.
  • For what it's worth, I don't think Twist had any malicious intent, and by the same token I don't think cuz took it personally either
    Absolutely agree.

    However if he'd said that to me................

    ;biggrin

    He's making out that he's trying to distract everyone from the "personal" stuff.

    But in reality he's probably having one last go at posting all his clown pics, before the wife deletes them and sends him for councilling

    ;biggrin
  • izzy ;lol
  • Cuz - seriously no worries. ;ok

    OCS - I think it says more for Ham's welfare when he posts a few thousand clown images during a discussion about modding and nobody bats an eyelid. ;biggrin
  • Izzy ;ok

    Is/was there a "Sam Out" Club?

    Blimey......things you learn everyday!

    ;wink
  • Izzy - rumour has it.

    Only ever saw full scale support on whu606

    Did you mean clownselling?
