So what you are doing as moderator? Is there a lot to keep track of or something?
We try to delete some of the more boring posts from members who get a little too carried away....
Just kidding, once again. | |

More belated congrats, Maxwell - FBI! *shake head* Man, I wish I could get my name listed at the top of every thread like that! ^

Lol, that's funny. I've never noticed that before. (I'll admit I've come close though, especially with the story going on.)

One day when I was on by myself...I had my name on every thread and every posting thread in the tv section. I was wordy.

Yep, and I think you're on your way to being the first one to get a fifth star outside of the moderators. I'm nearing the superhero rank, and have less than 70 posts. It's easy to get verbose on the boards, there's a lot to say.

I wonder what a fifth star represents when you earn it and are not accorded it by working for the man.

There is a thread further down on Stars/Rankings, but there are several ideas listed and the official ones were never specified. I didn't know about the Superhero rank until Maxwell-F.B.I. got his fourth star, and he was the one closest to it before becoming a moderator. So the fifth one is anyone's guess, we'll have to wait and see.

Looks like it's time to create a new ranking for houdiniderek alone - I'm thinking "CRAZY MEGA POSTING MO-FO". That sound like a good fit? Kidding, of course...

Yeah, but should posts from him saying things like "Thanks" really count? HD Hey, I'm happy to be Super Agent, so I'm cool with what HE gets I told him what I find funny is that he and I joined about the same time, in August this year, and he's got what? 300 or so more posts than I? Jeesh, HD, get a life already! (You know I'm kidding, right?)

I can't say too much about going post crazy, though I'm close to 450 as of this post, and most have been done in the past month. There are days I'll post a lot and others I post once. It will be interesting to see when someone gets his fifth star. Maybe it'll be "GAH" (Superhero isn't quite the same) or, as suggested on the Stars/rankings "little green guy." Who knows, it could be slightly silly too, such as "Spaceship driver." It seems that only the shadow knows what it will be.

I can take a good-natured ribbing from you all. First, I rarely say just one thing in a post, billswoman...I expand and adapt. Second, I don't have a life. I tried, but people got peeved with me talking about GAH a lot after buying the DVDs, so I joined here to have a sounding board. Of course, now I am told I ignore my friends in real-life for you guys...and I get the feeling you wish I would leave. Third, I think if I am the first non-moderator to get a fifth star, that I should get to come up with something...sort of an ode to billswoman for getting favors from on high. Fourth, if I guess the right number of posts for a fifth star, would you tell me I am right? Finally, Maxwell-FBI's new ranking is (in the words of Col Jack O'Neill): a bit of mouthful.

Well, HD, if you got to choose, what would it be? I like the idea of little green guy personally.

Except I am not little. I could not find the stars/rankings thread you cited, MelMac. Where is that? I don't know yet...I guess I need to get a fifth star before I worry about it too much.

Further down this folder, HD. There are several suggestions there, and right now, I'm guessing it's based on one post that has followed these ranks to a T.

So do the moderators have to go through and read every single post to make sure some things aren't out of control or they really just janitors and figureheads for the boards?

I know on the board I am a moderator on (or Section Chief as the title goes), I peruse the posts to be sure they're within the guidelines, or don't have a spam like I saw on this one recently. I've removed at least a few of those on the other board.

Post by Maxwell - F.B.I. on Nov 3, 2005 9:24:49 GMT -5
Yeah, that's a good example. There was a couple of posts that were just garbage characters and at least one totally SPAM post that I nixed. Aside from that, you guys are right - there's not much need for much patrolling on this board - everyone's been very cool.
