No moderation = shut down forum?

Seriously, some of the spam here is 4 days old...

Angrist · 07-04-2012, 05:42 PM

Oh by the way, I'm back from my holiday in Ireland!

Where oh where is Vampyr?

At the very least ban SteetsHat. It's been at it for weeks.

I posted in the staff forum that someone with access to the administrator control panel needs to turn on email confirmation and/or administrator approval for new members a few weeks ago.

Fox 6 · 07-05-2012, 09:24 PM

How many active members still remain? I at least check the forums everyday.

Jason1 · 07-05-2012, 11:17 PM

I check but seldom post...I just havent been playing games as much recently. I would like to see this place pick up though.

I check every day, usually to see what new cool stuff Teuthida has found.

Heh. And I mostly use the forum to just post such things. I could probably mod this board easily enough.

By the way, I didn't mean the whole GT forum, just the movies/television section. I don't understand why, but apparently it attracts a lot of bots.

I'd hate to see GT go.

Angrist · 07-07-2012, 09:08 AM

Ok, now the bots are starting to link to some really really sick crap (judging by the urls). Is there only 1 mod for this forum???

There aren't really "mods"

I mean Typhoid and I have the power, but that's the extent of it.
I'm not always around, and I can't speak for him.

If Typh's availability is like yours, are you the best choice for moderators? No insult intended, but if we're going to maintain a forum the moderators should be accessing the forums at least once a day.

Is there a reason why we all couldn't be "mods." The only thing I can think of that really requires moderation in such a small, insular group is deleting spam posts, so... Why not just give that ability to everyone so we can just delete those posts as they come?

Madness!
Chaos!
Dancing in the street!

Honestly, because no one has been able to give mod powers in like a year and a half.
