HF Support Feather

[Omniscient]

He wants to do it all himself, which allows the forum to go downhill for a certain period of time. Fair enough he cleans it up after, but the damage is done, it could've been avoided.

I've been sick this week. Been hard to focus and get anything done. I'm finally feeling better so I'm back here posting.

Sam is great. Doesn't mean he always will be. My experience is that almost everyone falls short at some point. I had IBF as Admin for a while. That didn't really help the site out too much to be honest. I don't see why this site needs a pile of moderators and admins. We have about 200 members log in daily and about 300-400 posts a day. Very few are actually reported. On average I think about 3-4 posts per day are reported. Hardly a big deal considering HF has 1000+ reports per day.

I really don't want to do it all myself but I'm certainly not going to grant power over a forum that doesn't need that position. This is still my forum.

I had to get that rant out, it was long coming.

Yeah because you're expecting position here. Will never happen.

I love to hate mods. Part of my forums theory is Moderation is Overrated.

I agree. Mods should imho be very low-key and low-drama. The mods that go around bragging about what they can do don't last. No reason to be intimidating or threatening. Just commit action and move on. Enforce a sites policies. That's the job of any moderator.
