, For some reason the words " keys, bananna plantation, monkeys and give" spring to mind.

GYBS.in answer to your question

when it comes to issuing cards or bans etc do the mods have a chat about it or is it down to that one mod ?

Cards, suspensions and bans are generally discussed, although due to having a life outside of the forum all mods are not always present. An individual mods intention to issue a card is usually immediately reported to other mods.

Also, always discussed, is the re-admittance of banned/suspended members and the rescinding of cards.

Thats cool - cheers woof .

I dont think everyone can be pleased no matter what mods do or dont do and people just got to realise they do what they think is best for forum and being a mod is pretty much a poisoned chalice and i think most mods are doing it as a favour to the forum and its not there prime job.

I know many thought Woof was out of order for his banning of the guy the other day. I didn't FWIW, I just think he was a bit harsh. Not the same as being out of order, perhaps Woof is human after all and made a mistake. As it was the guy was banned for a week or so so it didn't do any harm, and I've long felt that timed bans are the way to go. People should be warned and then given a ban for a couple of weeks to cool down. None of this "lifetime ban" stuff and then letting them come back, as it only serves to p!ss of other members of which Ciggy is a good example.

I actually think the mods do a very good job. My only gripeis that they post less on football because they are sorting out nonsense. Also IMHO one or two members are allowed to patrol the boards rarely if ever posting about football but simply on a wind up mission, with inanities, insults and silliness being their stock in trade. That though is simply my opinion, and I don't think they'd be my biggest fans either.

I think you are probably right mate, my original post wasn't meant as a .... "this is the way forward post", but rather as a starter for discussion, unfortunately as often happens its taken wing and flown in a slightly different direction.

While I have no doubt that Maypax will live to tell the tale mate, that wasn't the main reason I raised the thread. I just thought that if a system of appeal or similar was available maybe people wouldn't feel so aggrieved as at least they would get the opportunity to air their side. Maybe thats cloud cuckoo land, but I never pretended I was a genius.

I remember moaning to you when you banned Stu. You threw me completely off my stroke by firstly agreeing with me, and then convincing me you had no other option.

No wonder you are in sales!

What I am trying very unsuccessfully to say is that no system is so perfect it can't be improved, and while my ideas might not be practical, I was hoping others might have better ones.

I agree.

I was thinking these days of asking to Bad Bob to resign for selfish reasons. When moderating on hot topics he is very neutral these days to fulfill his job better. ( I miss the pro Rafa poster!

)

That was the reason I was "happy" when you resigned too, as since then, you've been able to post about footie a lot more and in a selfish way I prefer that.

I'll advocate again for rotation of mods.

I think almost every regular member could do the job for some months. Since it would be sensible rotation, the team of mods as a whole wouldn't notice negative consequences.

I personally would like a lot to see *all* the regular members rotating as a mod. If they make a big mistake the team of mods will correct them.

That way, we'd get several goals in one shot

* Incoming Users to the mod team would understand better the mod's job, and how they work. They'd also would be able to see that the mod's board is not so mysterious (If my guess about that board is right).

* While an user tries the modship he'll also be able to provide his view about how to moderate this site to the rest of the team, and thus, we'd all be participating in the moderation of this site.

Rotating or Styling of mods isnt a bad idea

by **Ola Mr Benitez** » Tue Oct 21, 2008 12:30 pm

I think we need to take on the FA's approach...

RESPECT - We need to respect the mods, no mods, no forum!

Liverpool FC Forum

Mod accountability - Do we need an appeal/review committee ?
