No, only kidding! Luvsh you really mods!

Anyways, have you ever had a thread closed? What was it about? Also, if you had mod powers for the day, what thread would you instantly close/open or instantly stickify?

I had my threads closed in the past...then I opened them back up a few times and then the mods took that power away from everyone(this is waaaaaaay back about 5 years ago). Then I became a recognized member and I only opened my threads in the archive so I could copy out all my HTML editing from a few posts and then close them back up.

Never started a thread. Although, I did on another forum. My first topic. It was "have you ever played Monkey Island?". (http://www.worldofmi.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=44311&highlight=#44311)The sight is based on Monkey Island. It just turned in to pointless insults, really. And I was the one getting called a troll. I was only asking. Lil' Belaus was especially mean. But we're good 'buds' these days.

Mod powers? Got 'em :D I'm a mod on two other sites already. One sucks, though. It's not working at the moment. But I'm a mod on this lovely little forum (http://www.eyesonff.com) (I have to advertise it), and we talk about all (4) non-mod members behind there backs. They do it everywhere, you know :eep:

Sorry, no advertising. ~ Leeza

I don't think I've had a thread closed here (yet). It'll probably happen soon.

I'd hate to be a mod. I had the opportunity to moderate at another very popular forum (completely different subject matter) and I turned it down. The rules there were that moderators had to read all the threads/posts in their forum sections and check in daily. It's like having a job that pays you with absolutely nothing and bombards you with clueless newbies and belligerent attention whores and triple posting and...

::wipes brow::

Whew. I could never be a good moderator. I'd flip my s*** at everyone that annoyed me and I wouldn't be able to maintain objectivity.

I'd pick on people who continually make all the threads about abortion, euthanasia, stem-cell research, affirmative action, religion... basically all the threads that people start and make countless repetitive and/or ignorant replies and drown out the people who actually make good points. The threads that will never, ever, EVER change a person's fundamental beliefs but still draw in two sides of people saying the same thing over and over again.

I'd ban anybody with a teenybopper signature. I'd ban anybody who hadn't hit puberty. I'd ban anybody who belched out 3 pages of personalized conversations/inside jokes onto a forum thread (because quite frankly, while I know that you're trying to show people that you have good online friends and that you guys are oh-so-funny and cool, the people you share these little inside jokes with do not outnumber the people who don't care. And wouldn't the people who do care already have another non-forum method of knowing or finding out? Since they're your friends and all?)

Basically, if I were a mod for a day I'd probably be the Ban Nazi. Much, much respect to the mods in this forum- they have more patience in here than I have had in my entire lifetime. Thank God I'm just another newbie.

I've had one or two threads closed because they spoke about something that was being addressed somewhere else, but I don't open many. Once Leeza closed a thread on the Arts section because she thought I had posted stuff that wasn't mine, but once I explained her the situation she re-opened it.

Actually US I did take that quiz, and according to your standards, you're all mine. However, anything that demeans a person by judging them on their looks, etc. according to one person's opinions is just...not nice and not awesome.

I don't think any of my threads were closed because I rarely make any, except in Staff. But a closed thread in there doesn't mean much. :)
