Printable 2the9s said: with the exception of Loudawg, IceNine, and IrishEcho who were beyond tolerable, I think there should be a general amnesty for all orgers banned.
Why a "general" amnesty? I am not saying I don't want the people you mention back, but a general amnesty would mean that someone cold break the rules often neough to get banned, but eventually come back anyway. What's the use of banning then? Look at the list: rdhull, C, chemmie, Essence, AzureStar, MD7, Aaron, Nep2nes (at various points) RaneStarr (at various points), and I'm sure numerous others I'm forgetting. What kind of site sees it as acceptable to ban the majority of its users as a way of keeping peace? I wouldn't consider ten people to be the majority, but I assume you mean that you think too many people in general get banned too quickly? I personally think it is a very good good thing for the org that some of the most notorious rule breakers, like Icenine, chemmie, nep2nes, RD and aaron have been booted. And that didn't happen too quickly, but too slowly.

Good deal if you ask me. By going to each forum, you should see who is the moderator(s) for that forum. Is that sigorney weaver in your avatar? Love that woman! AWWWWW! I was so hoping you would be on Religion and Politics.... I hardly ever go to Musician hangout. That forum does not even need a moderator....much 
A bunch of sweethearts over there. Although I'd love to help moderate the "religion" discussion side of that forum, I really have no clue when it comes to politics. That would be equivalent to me moderating a forum in Chinese! I appreciate the thought though. All Rights Reserved. |

Moderating Prince.org isn't a "profession" - these guys are giving their time free of charge, and doing their best. They don't have to tolerate abusive treatment from anyone. The person you are talking about posted many rather nasty abusive comments, and got booted for it. End of story. Moderating a website is not an exact science, and you won't always be happy with decisions that are made. However, this site has always needed a larger number of mods providing better coverage across the forums, and given the characters of the individuals concerned I'm sure that the new mods' involvement will have a hugely positive effect. It's great news, and I wish them the best. Ian blah blah blah... ain't nobody talking about "these guys"... i'm talking about you... i have the highest expectations from these people and nowhere have i indicated otherwise... [Flame snipped. --Matt] and i also wish these new guys the best... ...

Anxiety said: Can I just say one thing about NPGMC, even though it might be considered kind of bizarre by some around here?
I think they've really cleaned up their act lately in terms of the way they moderate the site. I don't think this was an act of kindness - NPGMC is getting flooded with new members since Prince has started off on his media blitz, and I'm sure the last thing he wants is to have new fan$ alienated by his own website - but all the same, I can't help but notice it's not as arbitrary and heavyhanded as we've known it to be in the past, and for whatever reason that has come to be, I'm happy for it. Sure, there's the whole "no cursing" rule and there are certain strictures that are in place over there that can be viewed as uptight and constrictive. But that's the style they're going for, so hey - whatever. Good thing about the Org (AND Housequake, and all the other similar sites for that matter) is that it gives people a choice. I can say right now that I dig the environment over at the club for what it is, and I dig the atmosphere here for what it is. I hope part of what I can do as a moderator is redirect all the "Us vs. Them" crap between the Org and the club, at least to where the sites aren't villainizing each other, because there's really no reason for it and in my opinion, that whole attitude is getting really boring. So, um....THERE. 
Just hadda get that off my chest. Maybe we could set up a moderator exchange program Anx. You could spend a month at the NPGMC HQ and PP9 could come here?
Anyway, congrats on the errrr appointment(?).  Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |
