Why did you delete the posts on chat ops? We were just giving our input.
This clearly extends to chat ops too, since they serve a similar purpose as our forum mods in a different area. If you disagree with a promotion, you are entitled to voice your opinion. However, this pouting, blacklisting, and backstabbing is complete nonsense. The next time those of you engaged in this petty protest wonder why you weren't made a moderator, please remember how you chose to behave in this situation.How to Become a Moderator said:Don't call us, we'll call you...
We don't advertise for new positions on LO. We handpick the members we feel will fit the bill best. Our hard working staff have a good feel for the different members of their areas and will notice the ones that stand out as good moderator material. When we feel that a new moderator is needed in an area, we ask the mods most familiar with the area in need, we get a few names, we check them out, and we make a decision.
I was not aware that I needed anyone's permission to quote them, especially things spoken into a public channel. In addition, this forum isn't public as only people who're a member of the LO Chat Usergroup can see it - In fact, the very same people you where adressing in the channel earlier.Well first off I must say I am a bit annoyed at the comments I made being selectively quoted on the public forums, but I made them in the main chat and didn't mention NOT wanting to be quoted so I guess I am open to attack for my comments.
Third, I do have issues with Kaiser's personality irrespective of him being made a mod.
So there's a queue...? Come on, it's a chat room. That someone who's been a regular on the site for a long time (Are the chat and forum that separate? Not really) is appointed to being an op shouldn't get people up in arms.The thing, a lot of chatters find it unfair that a "non-regular" mainly because you were never around on the other chats has been appointed opship just about a wek after joining the lochat channel.
There is no old mod who uses the chat who has lost their mod status, so don't make it out that people have or that we have had a complete re-haul, cos that's total BS.Pickle said:Fix the chat and make it easy to access, eg use an Ajax room as these run on all PCs, and bring back the original mods.
Lol, well not wanting to be quoted is hardly standing by your words Svalene.[13:35:37] <*****> ...i dont want to be quoted
[13:35:39] <*****> edit it
[13:38:16] <@Kaiser-> Ah, so you're another of those who won't stand for your words?
[13:40:51] <*****> i definetely stand for my words,i just don't enjoy being quoted without my permission
[13:40:54] <*****> sry
[13:41:14] <@Kaiser-> Fair enough.
[13:41:28] <@Kaiser-> Might I have permission to quote the text?
[13:42:01] <*****> nah
[13:42:23] <@Kaiser-> And why not?
[13:42:40] <*****> cause i dont want to?
That's bullshit, the only reason the chat ever changes is because people constantly whine about it.Blackhat has't listened to some peoples views, and just gone ahead with what he wants,.
Let me put this straight. I like Kaiser, he's a top bloke as far as I'm concerned. He's got a host of IG Sentinels named after forum members and other such wonderful things.[22:02] <PAw> because they are annoyed that the mods wouldnt choose from those who actually chat here
[22:02] <PAw> just the whole situation stinks of nepotism
[22:10] <PAw> Spec i think its more the fact that kaiser hasnt been around for years then because he likes the new chat he comes back and gets modship via nepotism on stoneys part
[22:10] <PAw> he said he didnt like the old one we used to have before it got screwed up
[22:10] <PAw> he hardly ever came on
