Title: yepo
Post by: Beatle Ed on June 02, 2004, 12:55:12 AM
Just wanted to be dramatic and say goodbye. I posted a topic last night and it got deleted. And I've seen other locked posts. And I think the moderation of this place f*cking sucks. So I'm gonna find a new forum to post in.

Dont go Ed! Your a valuable member here and i'd hate to see you leave. I'm not sure what instance your referring to, but i'm sure everything can be worked out.

OMG, this is WAY out of hand!  Two of the reasons why I even stayed here are going to leave?  This really sucks!  I -always- looked forward to posts from both Ed and Harlena!  (I'm not excluding anyone else, it's just that it's these two who want to go...)

Just -one- of you would be very missed, but both is too much! 

***Please*** reconsider...I don't know what's going on with the deleting and such, but this place will be so much less without you two posting here.

And/or at least leave word as to where you might be posting, so maybe one can say hello once in awhile?

Crap.

Jeez.  So far Colleen is still here (but she's being scarily quiet)...let's not have all the females leave us dimwitted testosterone bags to ourselves!  We NEED the female opinion as well as the calming influence!

Hi BE,

I really hope you'll reconsider and stay - your posts and humour would be sorely missed.

It's a sad fact that posts do sometimes go missing - I don't think it's ever done on purpose though, it's just a "funny" quirk of the board!

I honestly thought things had really improved here over the past month or so. But I've been offline for a few days and could only access the site from work, so I didn't see your comments till now. Sorry.

PLEASE STAY!

Title: Re: yepo
Post by: on June 02, 2004, 05:08:47 PM
That's right!  I had forgotten that I had been complaining in the past of MY posts never showing up!  There is obviously something buggy in the the program.

However, BE was barely here the last few weeks, after speculating on leaving beforehand, so I am not surprised. For whatever reasons she already had made up her mind.

Harlena was a surprise.

And I forgot Maria in my speculating about the ladies...sorry Maria!

Ed may have mistaken a 'lost' post as being 'deleted'.  I have had many replies never show up (and I complained about it too not too long ago).  Ghost in the machine.

The thread she indicated that was locked was a different thingie altogether.

(I'm glad YOU'RE still with us anyway!)

Aww, thanks.  :)


I noticed that the thread she started that was called "but why?" was moved to another section of the forum. I'm just wondering which one of hers was completely deleted.



Title: Re: yepo
Post by: Beatle Ed on June 03, 2004, 10:15:49 AM
Well I feel kinda dumb. The post I made hadn't been deleted but it has been moved. The "BUT WHY" post.  I'm just gonna get over it.
Title: Re: yepo
Post by: The End on June 03, 2004, 12:13:20 PM
Hi Erin!

So glad you're back!!!

I think what went wrong was this: if a mod moves a post, there is a box to tick which notifys everyone - that obviously didn't happen in this instance. So PLEASE don't feel dumb :)

It's just good to have you back!

If a moderator moves a post, wouldn't it be courteous to drop a message to the person concerned that this had been done?

I think that some people have "moderatorship" go to their heads - across every forum, not just here. I know a forum where moderators are forever moving threads and posts here and there. It's the "I've got the power, so I'll use it" mentality.

Pushy moderators drive adults away from forums. Most people do NOT like to have officious busy bees swarming all over the place. Forums work when EVERYONE feels ownership.

This particular board doesn't need moderators, as far as I can see. Sure there are some really annoying children and child-like people here (and one of them, Patton, was made a moderator - bong, error!), but time will sort that out - especially considering some of them don't know diddly-poo about Beatles!

I totally agree - this is what's supposed to happen when you move a thread:

http://beatles.murashev.com/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b=cc,m=1086188160

A note is attached to the old thread. It is easy to miss the little 'tick' box though... especially if you don't even know it exists! ;)

And I don't either.  Of course he COULD modify his behaviour somewhat.

But he has started some goo threads amongst the dross, and really it is a bit of an entertainment kind of batting down the more ridiculous statements.

But I am a bit surprised at how many people here seem to have a persecution complex.

Me?  Nah, I'm just a perv.

Ok I will say this and it sounds harsh but try and take it in a new light, instead of feeling sorry for yourself, why don't you try and change how you moderate.  Look at The End as a romodel.

Even tho I KNOW that is a flower on John's eye given the size and calrity of the picture it often looks like he was hit with mud ("here's mud in your eye!"), pie, or has cucumbers on his eye.

As with me thinking Bruno looked a lot like Kurt Cobain at one point (avatar-wise) one can see I have real difficulty wrestling with interpreting these things.

BTW: Bruno's group .gif now just scares the hell out of me.  Looks like murderous thugs.

All you have to do is think about the poor people, children especially, who are victims of extreme poverty and war and disease.  Hunger.  There are MILLIONS of people globally who do not live the kind of lives we enjoy and take for granted each day.

After reflecting on that it makes a lot of other things seem too small to worry about, you know?
