Sick of moderation

nissanguy_24 · 07-01-2004, 06:37 PM

I am Rapidly growing weary with having to moderate stupid threads then listen to abunch of bull about how the thread shouldnt of been moderated. I try to tread lightly around here. I dont know how many times someone should of been sent an offical warning from the moderation, you know the one warning you get before being booted, but instead i offer a gentle warning or advice on the forum informing the person politely and unformally what to do and not do.

However i close the ocasional dumb thread and i get abunch of crap. Well im getting sick of it. Not only that! but im insulted for it! I've been called narrow minded twice in the last week. Those who know me can honestly say thats not the case. I dont apreciate this kind of treatment for keeping the thread as clean as possible.

Well if you guys want me to stop being a moderator let me know. If you want me to stay then i will. I guess what im honestly looking for here is some reasurance from the users that they think im doing a good job.

keep doin your thing. why do you need to put it with it? just ban them.

P1STON2ROTARY · 07-01-2004, 08:13 PM

SMC, you do good for the site. You can't let unknowledgable children curve your reason for being here... and anyway, I'm sure the majority of more mature members respect your involvement in this website. You've put in alot of work here, and it would honestly be a waste if you left.

dcshoecor34 · 07-02-2004, 03:17 AM

SMC you're my hero!

and you are a great moderator keep it up

WildSe7en · 07-02-2004, 05:16 AM

Take me SMC....take me now...

For you are the greatest mod that has ever ruled Drifting.com...and I........I am but a peasant...

pita bread · 07-02-2004, 08:11 AM

The other moderators are behind Nissanguy_24 and will not allow him to be harassed or insulted. Nissanguy_24 had never asked to become a moderator, but instead he was approached because he is a helpful and positive member.

If this becomes a problem we will takeover his reported threads with less patience so he will not be attacked.

nissanguy you're valuable to the site, and if you're being harrassed the other mods should take note and begin ruling with an iron fist, at least for a short time, send the message home that mods don't need that crap.

emission · 07-04-2004, 06:59 AM

I try my best to lock most of the bull before you guys get to reply.

Are we being too nice? SMC is one of the best moderators here, I hate to see him go. So attacking him personaly or any other mod is a big mistake and it's not nice.

DriftGirl · 07-04-2004, 09:54 AM

You do a great job, dont worry about it

Now that Pita Bread guy.......gets on my damn nerves, but whatever

WytKnight · 07-04-2004, 03:57 PM

Hey man...ive been reading this forum for over 6mo. You do an excellent service to this forum. Being a former moderator myself I know it can be hard skating a line between hero and villian. Dont let people who dont agree with the forum policies get you down, remember its thier problem not yours...

ciao

GRiDRaceTech · 07-04-2004, 04:29 PM

SMC, keep up the good work!

nissanguy_24 · 07-05-2004, 06:58 PM

AX? sorry to go off topic, but tell us more about it. did you steal stuff worth over 100$? well, PM about it.

nissanguy_24 · 07-05-2004, 08:35 PM

No i paid for everything lol... I will start a thread in off topic about it when i get caught up with everything.

snowblind · 07-07-2004, 09:44 PM

without moderators this forum wouldn't last a week. You seem to be very (more than) fair nissan. Keep up the good work and know that most people here appreciate what you do for the site.

blargonator · 07-16-2004, 09:58 PM

i dont know how old this thread is but i have great respect for most of you guys because you all gave me a great helpful welcome to the site. even if you dont like festivas. thanks for all the help.

JC · 07-19-2004, 06:42 AM

You need a new attitude when modderating people who talk sh!t to you nissanguy_24...

STFU OR BAN!

Hahaha

But in all seriousness, I would hate to see you step down as a mod EVER. Your a good guy and a good mod. You need to get like a hugeass BAN button in your Mod CP. Heh

jaydm180sx · 07-19-2004, 08:51 AM

Nissanguy_24 for President!!!!!!

soultron · 07-19-2004, 09:14 AM

best mod ever = smc

mranlet · 07-19-2004, 11:22 AM

+1 to all.

You have deservingly become the legendary Nathan Hale, although it may not be for drifting skill... There's nobody that I can think of (except maybe Chas from the old days) who could hold down the board as well as you can.

If anyone gives you trouble, just lemme know and I'll take care of it

nissanguy_24 · 07-19-2004, 12:16 PM

Nathan Hale? wasnt Nathan hale was hung by the bits in the revolution.. and attributed with the words "my only regret is that i have but one life to give for my country" and i believe he is related to me. My family deffenately was around in those times.

spinitsidewayz! · 07-25-2004, 02:09 AM

stay a mod. youre good at it

but if its too stressing then maybe you should take a break... your probably the most forgiving mod here though

youre one of the leaders of this board and a fellow drifter and im behind you all the way

HasNoTiresLeft · 08-03-2004, 02:55 PM

Hey you mess with Nissan Guy... U messin wit me! lol Hey nissan man you do a helluva good job. For as long as i can remember nissan has always kept the posts in line, and he keeps the new guys informed. So hey let the man do his job.
