A moderator not wanted

[PWC]

SysAd - The site was created for more than the 2nd A. The other threads languish for participation. Most of the experience has left. You can't even access the encyclopedia of knowledge that originated here except thru Lane's Tips. I understand the cost of bandwidth that necessitated that loss. The other forums are geared to the type firearms for which this site was created.

Kill off 2nd A, and see of the dim light from Jouster 2 will grow brighter. Tightly moderate the remaining forums against political speech just like the other healthy firearm/shooting forums do. See if this forum will come back.

I think for the longest time you abdicated your admin responsibility and that is why we are here now. It 's not a matter of who wins...it's a matter of directing a properly relivent forum.

I concur, remove the 2A cracker barrel.

Or permanently ban those who cause the problems here and keep all the Majors forums as He intended. With the well known trolls here gone we wouldn't even need moderators.

Still, a password to get into the political section would be a good idea I think. Some of what is said here is thinking out loud, political jokes or sensitive material, though perhaps true, that the general public shouldn't view.

Most of the traffic here is 2A related. Killing it off won't leave much else. The subject of 2A rights and guns should never be an issue but because of democrats it is. I think we need to keep the discussions alive but w/o the interference from the left anti-gunners. They have their own forums.

Trolls make alternate accounts, not the other way around.

Right, Gunsmoke?

Why did you create alternate identities on this forum? To assist moderation?

he admitted why,, in a past thread,

here is the thing about banning people,

to play fair, and yes, life is not fair, you ban someone for breaking the rules,

infractions, time outs etc then perma ban,

so,

RED, got lots of infractions,
Vern, and Sam a few,

RED,, more so than the other 2, could not seem to follow the rules, then, after a few vacations, apparently gave up, and started following the rules,, then left, for what ever reason, (he has not viewed this thread)
Vern is now Admin,,
Sam,, self exile due to an issue with email that only sysad can fix, and got a warning or infraction or 2,

the other side, the Stoogez,


togor,, walked the line, rarely dipped a toe, and when I had a chance for a long deleted post,, sysad stepped in and made him moderator,
pebbles, and trax,, both got some infractions,, but never pushed the issue or crossed the line to get a time out,,

there is a lesson to learn there,,, but don't seem to understand it,



I've banned a metric poo ton of spammers,, been like 6-8 a week lately
I banned Maus45 for being Maus45,

don't think anyone else got the banhammer except for the extra accounts,
togor sniffed out gunsmoke,
Sam had a total of 4 accounts, all but one are banned,
extra accounts are not a thing I'll tolerate


I don't know if togor has banned anyone, the list I can see in mod mode shows mostly JeffL and I banning spammers,



new members are looked over maybe once a day,, I check IP's and if they smell like they are spam,, the poof,, they go,


I'm not sure if Vern or togor look over that,, surely JeffL and sysad do not,

I did PM Togor on the subject of this thread! Why I haven't replied back here with it is because I cannot find it! Where are PMs stored?
