Only one mod should have this power

Lol at some of you guys getting your panties in a bunch. It was just a joke and is now taken care of. Some of you guys who still have banned names will have them back by the end of the day. I promise. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

LOL.... I got banned for a day for opening a pointless thread and reading it a bit... I didnt even post. But whatever happens "UP THERE" isnt my business... nor am I gonna tell ya'll how to run this place...

I find it funny how the guy who started this thread and wanted the mods to have have the power, got banned by one

Is it just me or is getting permanitely banned from a forum fun? I got to make a moderator look like a dusche rocket on AF for the time that my thread existed. IP cant acces it any more though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Anyway. Moderatores SHOULD have banning power but they shouldnt abuse it. There is no point in being a moderator if you cant kick trouble makers out. Administrators dont have time to moderate, especially on a forum like CA.com or AF.com //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

and on that note CA.com could use a larger moderation staff.

That's funny and all, but I was the one who started the shitfest on this forum that got the mods the powers, and in turn I was banned. Not by a mod, but by the big bad wolf himself.

****ing insane.

Maybe perception is reality, after all...but still.

 

[iceteebone 5,000+ posts]

since mods got banning powers i've been banned twice, and a known scammer is still posting on the forums. go figure

nothing like old posts

and on that note CA.com could use a larger moderation staff.

i agree

I voted yes. All mods should be able to use the ban hammer

 

[zthumper 10+ year member]

Whats the point of being a mod if you have no power?

 

[djman37 5,000+ posts]

Yes, I think at least 1 mod should have banning powers.

That power, as is being a mod, is a responsibility and privelege, not a gift or plaything. If abused, the powers should be revoked and the account deleted. The mod should be held to a higher standard.

The mods can circle-jerk each other all day long in the back room(with pics too), just leave it there.

Happy Sunday.
