Forums - Website Topics - Two new mods / news writers

tsk tsk tsk, GranTurismo. To think I was gonna vote for him to be a mod. Well, looks like I have corn fodder all over my face.

I think we need more overseas mods so that there will always be a mod online.

 Well, that´s a great idea. Usually when I visit the site there are just about 400 users online. But the most mods sleep, see Montana :)



Congrats Montana (Okami ftw), and whoever the other new mod is (Naznatips, I think?)



Mods:
rocketpig
naznatips


ioi should create a separate forum just for W29, Soriku and leo-j, and make all three of them mods, and they can fight it out and ban each other. That would be entertaining.

And I'm glad to see GranTurismo is finally banned, I hope it's permanent.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

Let's get ready to rumble!

Grant me teh POWER ! ! muhahaha... just kidding. Yeah, I think naznatips is a great material for a Mod but... he isn't affiliated to the "real next gen camp"   Hmm, as for x360 supporter I vote for W29 - he has good days time to time Regards Sony... Montana seems a pretty fair choice.

I live exactly 12 hours from EST, and you are right: Most mods are asleep, but then again, you should see how slow things are in the forums between 2-6AM EST...

I'll take the job, I can and will take a near-unbiased stance, I do already as much as I can. Or at least take the PC side of arguments.

What, after this comment?

"I'm seriously starting to hate this site..half of you dont even understand how technology works. You probably don't even know a 4 terabyte HDD is going to be released soon. Morons."

I don't have time to focus on writing stories too terribly often and I'd like to see it go to someone like W29...


Are you serious? The guy has like a 300 word vocabulary and can't spell. You want him "writing stories"??

Examples from just this thread:

"I W29 is fit for the job ioi.... I will look after the Microsoft forums and make sure they are well intact and I will also be professional about this job since its serious."

"I would be a great addiction to the mod family, especially adding news for the Xbox 360 side."

"I'm a good writer when I have to be, and ioi promoting me to the writers spot would be a good spot for me, cause I can write and type 360 news left and right...  So basically Ben your saying I shouldn't be a mod, but an news writer?"

 

 

Plus he's been banned in the past (as have many others that are still being nominated in this thread for some bizarre reason, like soriku and onna76). Obviously people who have been banned before for bad behavior should not be potential candidates.

With the mods being pro and anti certain consoles, why not make them moderate only a specific section of the forum ?

Set up a hierarchy where the more bias you are the less powers you have and only get assigned to certain sections of the site.
