All gmods and forum mods have been removed from power.
Why?
So I can step back and assess the situation as a whole and I can't do that with the numerous people moose has hired. I can't keep track of what everyone's doing and everyone is doing something different. It certainly does not help that all the admin tools are not in place. And it doesn't help them that all the mod tools are not in place. Not one of these people have done anything wrong in my eyes, it may very well be that I'll slowly restore each and every one of them to their place... or maybe not. I wanted to get away from a crap load of moderators we had on v4 and set up sen so the community can manage the community through numerous different techniques.

Moose has also been removed from his admin spot, for now. I don't care to go into all the details, but he screwed with data integrity and I spent the last hour going through tables and updating member id's. I emptied numerous non-critical tables of data out, so you lost things like your address book. I will also be clearing out pm's and notices and reseting that data later tonight, so don't send any because it might not be recieved. I am hoping that once everything on SEN is more stable, he'll accept my invitation to rejoin me as admin. But right now, I don't need this extra crap.

Now obviously, I need your help, all of you:
x Don't cause problems. No spam in assistance forums, no flaming in discussion forums, and etc.
x Report those who do cause problems. It takes only 5 seconds and it exponentially saves me time.
x But don't report things that aren't wrong. On SEN, we can use "bad words" as long as they are used somewhat decently (not obsessive swearing, not in flames, not stupid-like garbage, not to swear just to swear). In assistance forums, we do not add SOLVED to topic titles anymore, or at least, if I don't come up with some type of solution. Simple help topics can be closed, while complex ones will stay open for discussion / other people with the same problem.

Good luck, sir.

I still love you

Ouch.

Like Moose said, good luck. I guess I was a bit confused about what I was supposed to be doing as a mod sometimes. I hope you get it sorted out.

Good luck man..What is this karma thing anyways?

I don't need luck... I just need time to code
And then we can get back to normal.

You really should go into all the details. It is a very funny story.

What about some kind of check mark icon in with the topic creator can click indicating that he or shes question has been answered.

Also can my 21/12/2012 topic be reopened again. I dont find it fair its been locked because someone thought it was a "tabloid headlines"

Yeah, I see no reason as to why that topic was closed. At the very worst, it could have been moved to light discussion, but I don't even think that would be necessary. Too bad I'm not a mod there anymore. Hopefully most of the people who were mods of any sort get to come back. Good luck on everything, IP.

JordaN - Read - Don't cause problems
A closed topic really isn't on the high points of "list of priorities"

Just to let everyone know. Moose thought it'd be funny if he changed Esponeo's user ID to 666, but while doing that he completely fucked everything.

I'm going to blame this on Sala.

Edit: Delete this post I'll send a private message instead.

I can understand you removing all the mods from power - after all, not too much really needs to be moderated at the moment. If anybody needs help with anything, the members can just point them in the right direction, and if anything gets too serious, you can just take care of it. The 'Report' button sure is handy.

I do suggest you carefully pick the new mods, and don't have more than a handful. It isn't necessary to have a few for each individual forum - if there is 1-2 new topics each day per forum, and around 10-20 posts, an individual mod for each forum, or one for each category, is sufficient.

You wanna know what would be fun moose. If everyone became Global Mods. It would be havoc. No,no,no. Even better. Everyone admins. Everyone banning each other. It would be last admin standing.

Um...I can't fix my post up there?
I should finally be the light/serious discussion moderator.
