Recent difficulties

Post by Dogbreath »

Hello, Everyone. I would like to apologize for not being here for the past few days, I have recently changed ISPs and, as a result, have been experiencing problems with my web browser. It's working temporarily so I'd like to take this time to add the new Usergroup: Kazer0 and Bobo's society, a second private interest group, much like Elite Members, but run by two of our excellent users. Anyone the group decides should be a member can access it. Have fun!

Bobo, I believe, should also be a mod.

Sorry, there can only be one. Though you are the technical operator, you should both be moderators as far as decision making goes. (I.e, member adding)

I'd rather not install any mods that are non-essential ... so unless this is something that is urgently needed, I probably don't want to risk screwing up the board to install it.

Likewise, you can probably run your usergroup with one person in charge. Having two to add members doesn't really make much difference.

All mods can mod your usergroup, don't worry.

You could always deliberate with Bobo before taking any action if you really want it to be a joint partnership.

Also, I know you'll hate me for this, but I think at least 1 mod should have access to at least view the forum, so that they can edit stuff if necessary, like abandonware, or pornographic posts. They wouldn't post, just make sure everything is in order.

Yeah. I'd check in, but not do anything but moderate. There are no mods that aren't elite.

Look at me. Look agian. Look at my record. The only boo boos I have made is when I first joined (I didn't know what warez and adbandonware was). I don't think K0 or I would allow any members to do that. I know I wouldn't, then agian I'm not a mod.....

Dogbreath said he'd add me to the el......several......losi....ng...access....., but I won't get in to that agian. ;)

I can personally check in on it from time to time, just to make sure... since you'll choose the users yourself, I don't think there is any need for a moderator as you'll conduct yourself properly.

Bobo: I thought that you chose having your own group over elite members? :-/

Okay, except he said he won't be as active. And emmzee's never active. Besides, I was under the impression that the Admins can and should see everything anyway.

Oh well, maybe we could make Kazer0 a submod for his forum.
