requesting my post be changed back from a mod-lol comedy edit to its original form

I don't think Ned has had mod powers in years! If he does, I don't think he's exercised them.

xp to mh: no argument there

wrt gr8080s point abt which mods weigh in: i think that prob some mods just dont really want to get involved in this stuff, i mean its not like its a great time for anyone really - before i was a mod i always would get bummed out that stuff wasnt more transparent so i kinda set that as a goal when i became a mod. its not always an awesome job, but i think its for the good of the board and so on and zzzzzzz

A lot of this would go away if mods just said were taking away forks mod powers so that he can now only inflict horrible jokes upon you in the way other users of ilxor.com can inflict horrible jokes upon each other

the thing I don't understand is why all gr80s most recent posts in this thread are kind of anti-mod when its the mods that are writing them

btw this is now on IMP because mod req is for 3 post threads like "hey please edit my poll" "sorry we cant" "oh ok", not whatever this is turning into

whew avoided a catastrophe here btw

I don't really think we need to go much further down this rabbit hole of pointless antagonism given that pretty much we're all agreed that mods editing other people's posts isn't really cool and the rest of it is just turning into shrill noise at this stage.

did forks agree?

well if forks does it again will he be stripped of his powers, much the same way that repeat rule breakers are banned from

oh, ok, great!

at this point I would support forks getting stripped of mod powers just so you guys would shut the fuck up, but since what would actually happen is that he would go onto a "scalp list" to be brought up for lols I think not only should he never be stripped as moderator, but he should also edit a post by at least one of the people in here bitching about him every week

I vote we force mod powers on DJP

u r so dense and desperate for attention

lol dan yr acting as tho this scalp list is more than a thing i just made up earlier in this thread, but jeez here u can have yr scalp back

ha this is basically why you gave up yr mod powers, i don't really want forks to relinquish his tbh because he's not an aggressively bad mod he just makes bad jokes

ah, the nuclear option

I don't think what forks originally did merits him losing his mod powers but the fact that he can't own up to it a day later certainly does

this whole thing, so simple, say sorry, fix, lock thread, ffs

I think we should redistribute mod powers quarterly, with one rep hailing from hastings thread, one from the british isles, one from aus, NY, and california

i said this the other day too but just wanna give a shout-out to mods like WMC, remy, and even forks who do pretty good work and occasionally try to engage with ideas/gripes we plebes have. also pretty sure ned is still a mod? and he does a great job too afaict

oh yeah, and Ned should be mod-for-life

Agree w/ kev I appresh engagement but Ned is the ideal mod imho

at this point I would support forks getting stripped of mod powers just so you guys would shut the fuck up, but since what would actually happen is that he would go onto a "scalp list" to be brought up for lols I think not only should he never be stripped as moderator, but he should also edit a post by at least one of the people in here bitching about him every week

I think http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxprn1h0Nh1qdlh1io1_400.gif makes a good point. I don't see anything about changing around posts, headlines and image macros that has anything to do with moderating.

http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxprn1h0Nh1qdlh1io1_400.gif might be a little vocal about mod actions, but that doesn't give anyone with more functional power over this site to use that to their advantage.

Why is that whenever I try to say G80's name that gif comes up?

fyi while i support comedy mod edits - and really the meaner the better here - p much and all autoreplace jokes are 10000% terrible

DUMPLINGS!

I want to take gr8080 to go eat DUMPLINGS!

shit I done fucked that up

grady upside your head

hey remy, wmc, can you get these goofs under control?

lol u r gullible
