ehuffnsd said: Teacher said: I'd go into P&R if the mods had more of a handle on the assholes, Mars started a good thread about it needing a reboot in the site discussion forum. If that would come to pass I'd give it a try, I like talking about topics like that but not with the constant bashing going on.
hopefully the new mods will be announced sooned. Mach and June are the only active mods over there so they get overwhelmed. Nikster I've noticed around a bit more lately but they really need more help there. Absolutely As you might be able to tell from my post I'm biased in favour of Mars becoming a mod but I really do think that the forum needs a re-boot of some sort, that users get to sign a slightly different set of rules or something or an understanding that the mods will handle things more strictly from a certain time because imo the way it is now isn't working. It would if all the "normal" posters (and I actually count myself with those) would report a post to the mods EVERY TIME there's something fishy about it but that would bog the mods down for years with every day's load of posts. I'd REALLY like to get back in there now because I'm very interested in the American presidential race but... not a chance the way it is now. | |

[Edited 4/6/08 10:22am] You're absolutely right, many people express their opinions and forget to use those little letters "imo" or the words "I think" or even "I'm convinced". That you have an opinion (even if it happens to actually be a fact) you do not get to be rude to people about it, but despite the rules of the forums people seem to think that everything goes when discussing this kind of topic. I feel that the mods need to enforce american law harder in that particular board because a lot of the hate straight out breaks the laws of discrimination. For me, one instance of braking a law consitutes a perma-ban. | |

P&R can get ridiculous with its heated discussion threads and generally "us vs. them" arguments, but for the most part it isn't different than the posts on the political sites Daily Kos, Huffington Post, and Free Republic. (Speaking of which, if you really want to see hateful speech, go to Free Republic.) Then again, you won't see the lengthy discussion on P&R that you do on GD about dick size, how cum tastes, anal or oral; yea or nay, which celebrity has the best ass, or the various threads dedicated to certain orgers like Imago or JustErin. I personally was about to have a really sad and crappy day two weeks ago when someone posted the dick size thread, which had me laughing all day long.

i think people are confusing heated arguements for hate. i like all of the regulars at PnR. They are my peeps. Interesting how negative some are speaking of those who post in p&r. I don't want every "heated" comment reported. That's not why additional mods are needed. I think some have started moderating p&r as they do other forums and that's not how it should be done. Some flow of thought needs to be allowed even if you disagree with it. So whomever becomes a mod in p&r needs not to power trip. | |
