Moderator Bashing Considering the amount of time they spend cleaning up our messes, and considering the fact that it's not a paid position...I think some of you have been unfairly bashing the mods. taste is subjective, but don't judge a moderator till you've typed a day at their keyboards. Just sayin. | |

i think it is sad that they dont get paid... cause they do to much work on here.. almost like its a real job... i also wouldnt even do half of what their doing if i wasnt getting paid... or owned this site....
i have been hearing from people that the moderators are being unfair with the members.... maybe bias... also my account was deactivated two days ago... cause i asked if moderators get paid... and i was sent an email telling me my account was deactivated because i was "airying out dirty laundry"... literally it said that... where in the rules does it say you will be banned for airying out dirty laundry... anyways i think that the org members should get to vote for who gets to be a moderator... every 6 months... so that people will choose moderators that they feel will treat them fair and with respect... cause i have had moderators that just hated me.... and would find everything i did wrong.. .lock all my threads delete my post.... or i would be blamed for all the arguements... even though i didnt start them... but i would get banned and the other person wouldnt. if someone says something rude to me... i might say something back to defind myself... but now.. those moderators just didnt like me... so they treated me unfairly... but if people or every forum was able to vote for moderators... that would help alleviate some of the problems that people have with the moderators.... and also one more thing... some moderators.... can get a big head... they think they have some kind of real power cause they are able to bann people... so they look for every excuse and this post wasnt to start any kind of trouble or 'AIR OUT DIRTY LAUNDRY'... it is a basic/simple discussion... NOT meant for any kind of drama hopefully the moderators will see it that way... and NOT delete this or lock this thread... |

It is nice to know that there are other orgers who have also been treated unfairly for speaking out . It's healthy to discuss things like this with no drama involved. When people speak out it is not to "bash" a moderator it is to voice a concern or opinion and to me that's what site's like Prince.org are about-people getting together to voice their opinions about whatever. It can be a good thing if people don't get big heads and think that moderating gives them domain over all because it doesn't. | |

I wonder how they would feel if they were treated as unfairly as they have treated some thats how i feel.... cause they will never know until it happens to them... also they need new and improved moderators... cause sashi moderator was getting smart with me... and just cause i dont have access to delete accounts doesnt mean... i shouldnt be treated with respect... if i find out that they are adding new moderators im definitly going to sign up for it... but i just will treat people with more respect and be less uptight... |

even if 10 org members are complaining about being treated unfairly...than that means a moderator is NOT doing thier job
and when an or member complains about being treated rude from a d moderator.. that thats a serious problem.... we should all contact the person who owns this site and complain about the problems we are having |
