I second T159 aka ichi's recommendations. (though I'm not sure why he wants an avatar size increase :???:......:D)
This forum should have a greens who have the time to devote towards the forum, remove or atleast threaten non-functional greens :twisted: (OK, this one is optional :wink: )
This forum can be brought back to those glory days :)

And one more thing, If the mod is Inactive for 3-4months, the mod status should be removed from him.....

Mods should be regular, but you can't force them. They are not paid for the job. There can be some personal problem for being inactive. Mods should be friendly.

When we have so many mods, there is a high probability that at least one of them will be active at any given time. Doesn't happen, though.

Agreed.
Even so, suppose there is some issue with a mod, the least he can do is keep the others posted about his absence. :|

Such a pity. This forum used to be a great place. Nonetheless its amazing that everyone seems to be be happy to put the blame on anyone they see. Has anyone actually tried sending a PM to Raaabo or one of the other Admins for that matter? Rather than being quite blatant and just pointing figures at random people who do take their time to clean up the forum how about taking time to make some suggestions politely to the admins or moderators. If people haven't realized you don't get paid for staying up and wasting all those viagara threads on this board.

Why put IRC chat up here when you could check by easily logging on to the channel :D. Its always been an easy procedure just download an IRC client logon to freenode and get into the channel #thinkdigit or #think-digit Id have to check which one it is.

The best action would be to put in a couple of addins which would lower the burden on the moderators. Assuming the admins actually wouldn't mind doing the same. I don't see any reason why any admin wouldn't.

PS: If anyone should be a mod it should be The_Devil _Himself :)

ahh, whenever a person makes this kind of a thread, it says ""Make me a MOD "" & i bet you get bored within a month of being a mod, the only that stay are US the 18 who didnt got bored... !! its true that many of us dont get online often, lives go on and people get busy.. but whenever we can we do the mod job.

from last month i have seen hitbox, kalpik & pathik handling the forums pretty good, but as specified in the first page from a user the names of mods who didnt come online from sometime, they might be busy man.. dont you think its not a regular job.. i feel responsible, so i check the most i can & the same case is with everyone.

As said by the admin your opinion is highly appreciated, but pointing fingers is very easy, doing some work and making a difference is another. I myself have seen what happens when you work on the forums, you do the correct thing, but some members appreciate you, some dont. you guys dont think that this free job is a just a responsiblity & we love to do it. but we cannot be online 24hrs. can we ?

for a quick info : many of the mods & admins are online but you cant see them coz of invisible mode.. ( not me ) :p

Since this topic is already out, i don't mind giving a helping hand myself. I have been Super Mod and admin before on a gaming forum before so i have got experience. If any of the admins/mods wishes for new mods then I'm totally up for it.

Peace out.

As long as he is the mod, he can ban....thats why I don't what to name publicy.

Thanks for accepting my greatness.
I don't care whether you are paid for it not. If you have taken up the responsibility, don't try to show it upon us that you are doing it for free and that we must accept whatever you do or you don't do. I thank you for your generous time and effort in cleansing this forum, but I don't think whatever you have said is enough to shrug off the lapse on others moderators' side.


6 admins and 18 moderators have had enough time and power to show their "rescue abilities". What makes you so furious if I am trying to bring the change? You 6+18 could not, so I will try. At most I will fail and develop some new enemies...not new to either.

All your amicable discussions started when I took upon myself to create this thread.

Thanks for telling me that I must grow. If it was not for you, I would have always remain a milk-child.
This is not internet. This is ThinkDigit forum. You yourself told me this in that "Spamming is my birthright thread". If you feel that you cannot control the forum, you should stop trying and leave the position if you wish.

Its high time that you learn to accept criticisms from people like me(and others) and duly credit us instead of trying to belittle us.
