Place would be fine if huge wii fanboys weren't mods, shams and ben. What ben says is trolling, he lets wii fanboys do all the time in the sony forum.

There are many people that wont even post a wii criticism because they don't want to be banned.

If ioi wants wii fanboys as mods he should only have them mod the nintendo forum, same would go for PS3/360 forums.

The tone of the forum is set by the mods, that really does expalin why this place is such a wii fanboy place.





 hmmmm....you have a single post...and you know this site well...either a patient lurker or a banned user...or just a coward who doesn't want to use their own screenname to call out a mod.

We don't need a PS3 moderator. We don't need a 360 moderator. We don't need a Nintendo moderator. We need someone who can control themselves in the midst of a debate and someone who can deal with violent situations or trolls. It doesn't matter if they are biased or not; as long as they're able to deal with conflicts accordingly, I doubt the administrator would care about their console preference. Do you think any of the moderators here would let a Nintendo troll go because they themselves also support Nintendo's systems? I trust our moderators in their ability to determine what is right and what is wrong, and I know ioi does too, which is why they were given that position.

To me, the site is fine the way it is. It may not look like it, but I'm sure every moderator is doing their the job the best they can, whether it's behind the scenes or right out in the open. We all have our opinions, it's just a matter of whether a person can let that get in the way of their job or not. Sure, ckmlb may seem like a troll, and at times may seem like he hates Nintendo, but I don't see him banning anybody because they disagree with him.


 problem is not every one is held to the same rules or standard.

CKMLB is probably the best mod on here, he sees the faults of all 3 systmes.

ben will close and thread that is critizizing the wii by saying it is trolling, yet he does not do the same to thread about sony or the PS3.  The only one i seen close troll threads in the sony forum is ckmlb.

This thread makes my heart smile, back in the day when i smod'd I used to have to fire mods for allowing personal bias to influence their duties to the userbase. Never thought about hiring a bias from every corner to even things out though, Seems abit... chaotic?

Alas i'm still just a newb, so to whoever gets it, congrats and remember: us sony fans have enough pr trouble without your help. >.>

 

 

 

 


 No one is getting anything.  This was just a discussion/idea thread.  The "Chance to Be a Mod" has no affiliation whatsover with this one.  I'm sorry if that creates any confusion.

Can some one show any rules for the forum ?

what exacly is a troll ? or trolling.

What constitutes as a warning or ban on here ?

What are the rules the mods have to abide by ?

Why are most of th emods wii owners ?

Why are the two top mods wii owners ?

We've gone over this many times. Owning one console or another doesn't matter when you're a mod...it depends on how good you are at moderating...settling arguments, warning, banning, etc.

Judging forum moderators based on how many consoles they can afford is stupid...especially because even if someone owns all 3 consoles, they can still favor one over the other, not that it matters when moderating anyway.

Be civil, fair, check your facts, and allow for open discussion, and any thread criticizing any console or its game will be fine. Start bashing with just your opinion and you get flak from users and moderators because you obviously don't consider others' opinions valid.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

By the way, it's spelled "bias" not "bais."

Yahh, bens bais has me rolfing...

BTW, keep it up Hus - you know the exploit of creating new accounts every time you are banned. In time, you may even overshadow Gballzack, unlikely as that sounds!
