Deathray 2,940 Posted December 6, 2016 I hereby nominate that Cat O Falk be made an administrator of the forum. He's clearly more competent and/or has more free time than the current lot. Those in agreement raise your virtual hands! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,220 Posted December 6, 2016 I agree, and make YDub moderator while your at it. He has a lot of time on his hands as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,018 Posted December 6, 2016 Hah, I'm too easy going to be a mod. It's taken me probably six months longer than I anticipated to block Sir C, for example. Plus I'd probably have to read his pish if I was elevated. I can't do that again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted December 6, 2016 On another note what happened to the supposed mod clear out. https://forums.deathlist.net/index.php?app=forums&module=extras§ion=stats&do=leaders Death Star - last active 2004 (probably dead) Stayin Alive 2 - last active 2008 Mr Stats - last active 2012 (probably dead) Margere Heine last active in July. (probably dead) Bouddica - last active private but last posted over a year ago Lady Grendel - last active private but last posted over 3 months ago. Grim Reaper has made 5 posts in a year Josco has made a handful of posts in the past year Stayin Alive hasn't posted since 2008 despite being last active in June Tuber Mirum has a handful of posts in the past year, despite being active in September Typhoid Harry hasn't posted since 2013, despite being active in October. That leaves DDT and Paul Bearer as the only credible admins of the forum, and the only actually present ones. Definitely room for another and a good old purge.

Deathray 2,940 Posted December 6, 2016 Steady on, Robespierre: just because they don't talk to you, how do you know they're not doing stuff, eh? They don't generally (excepting DDT and Paul Bearer) appear to be regular users/contributors to the forum going by last activity and post dates. They might be busy with real life, in which case they'd surely welcome being relieved of the burden of working on this site's admin team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,421 Posted December 6, 2016 Well, for one thing, one of those you mentioned is the site owner, and others were/are members of the Deathlist Committee themselves. Also, who do you think gets stuff done when DDT is away working and Paul's asleep? That's just two issues with your iconoclasm drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They aren't all members of the DL Committee, if anybody actually knew who the committee are which nobody does. Judging by the last active dates it's not these guys getting stuff done while the good mods are asleep. I'm not sure DL Committee members should automatically be granted administrative rights either.

msc 18,421 Posted December 6, 2016 On an admin front, I doubt that shouting or asking polls will bring any new admins. (Nor do I know if Paul can even "Admin up" someone, nor do I care, to be honest.) Not a knock on Cat, he seems cool, but remember, this is essentially a forum for a group of pals and their Deathlist, which has gone international. The rest of us are all just squatters, and nice as it is to get out of the rain, it's good to remember that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Predictor 1,018 Posted December 6, 2016 Didn't Dr. Zorders make a similar thread once? Don't remember its exact name, but I do recall it escalating into an amusing fight or something. In any case, no changes came of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted December 6, 2016 We don't need new moderators, we don't need new admins and we don't need to be championing indivduals for said positions that don't exist. That's the second time in a matter of days you have started threads when there were already existing threads that you couldn't be arsed to check out. The only argument for more moderation is to have people on hand to continually merge threads that tarts like you create due to bone idleness or thickyness or summat. Best thing for this one is to have it locked. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best thing for this one is to have it locked. The awards one would have been tonnes of years out of date. This thread is about a new admin, not new moderators as the other thread was. The main argument for another admin is that the current sole admin who does anything can't be arsed to make simple, twenty second changes like turning a swear filter off. This level of apathy is cause for concern. I may well leave the forum if this shower of shit continues, and this time I mean it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
