Moderation

[Corbin Law]

After reading that pretty lame topic about that guy trying to sell his worn in SB's, i think that we really need some moderation maybe we do have mods, (chad and wayne) but ive never seen them. some threads need to be locked to avoid the constant flames that get sparked over and over again. As long as we have someone unbiased that cares about the future of the forum heading up this moderationlike.......which is why i say tragic bliss for moderator!

chwa?

[Corbin Law]

that could eb a start, to keep people who sell still a part of the community

chwa?

[tangerine]

I dunno, you might get scammers posting "lol" in 50 threads, then throwing up some FS items... could just add to clutter.

No shortcuts to good moderation... a pretty thankless job from what I've heard from mods/former mods on other boards

There are definitely some repetitive and flamethrower threads around that could use a firm hand.

ask a cassowary

[artificialsky]

bloody coup de tete, Jupafett, Selegna, and Ringring become moderators.

[zimzima911]

coming from a newly registered supertalker I think if it would be possible it would be cool to have a for sale section or like a classified section. I have been cruising this site for a year, I don't feel I should have to prove myself with a number of posts before I am aloud to sell something.

[Geowu]

how about an automatic system:

put a button next to the message, and if it's an inappropriate message people click that button.

when a number of people (maybe 10 or 50) find the message inappropriate the user gets banned for a week.

[krucial]

Ban them! =D

As much as I like NT and shoes, it is annoying to see SF being flooded by newbs because people have been "educating" NTers about denim.

And before I get flamed or accused, I am and have been an nter but I have been reading SF for quite some time now and even registered before this infestation had begun.

if anyone wants to nominate themselves as a moderator for a particular forum then we will look at their post track record and put the nominations before all the members to see if any other members want to raise objections... [this would no doubt be an entertaining thread]

i tend to think that the members on this board do a great job of self moderating so we have kept a bit of distance and only really step in for moderation if things really gets out of control... despite what some people think, we do get to read a lot of threads but we've hardly got hours to spare with a toothcomb dealing with every post...

anyway i'm not sure deleting posts or users really makes much difference... so there is a limit to what moderator can actually do... other than lock threads that go warped....

i like the idea of automatic user deleter based on members feedback though not sure how technically possible to do this...

supertalk 2.0 ?

I vote selegna for moderator!

ring^2 for the real mod.

[haptronic]

i 'm with selegna

it all adds to it.

[bufo]

The Supershopper section should really have a FAQ thread and be made a sticky. I wonder if this msg board has the ability to make threads a sticky? Anyways, I see people asking the same thing over and over and over again. Moderators, please consider making one.

I don't think it would work very well since there are so many people on here you would need a very high number(ppl could just click on every post to be an ass or whatever) which in turn would make it not very usable. I think it would be better to have a report button on every post, would be a bit slower maybe, but at least it wouldn't get exploited in the same way.

tally-hoo

[frideswide]

How about no selling at all ?

[Corbin Law]

well its good too see that ayne and chad do actually read the forums.

that little diea for a button is good one, id otn kno if its possible though

[Corbin Law]

chwa?

[SOME_DAY]

Those shirts were so funny

[emrinderForgotHisPassword]

we have to save the integrity of this forum i mean what's next????????????????????

i fought the law and the law won

[super]

I'm bumping this thread up because of the huge amount of dumb ass threads of the late. Please chad and wayne, just delete the garbage threads.

[TragicBliss]

I wouldn't mind moderating if no one obejcted and I had the help of a few other people.

There have been some pretty questionable posts as of late. I think there def. should be a buy/sell forum and some guidelines as to what you can post on here.

Obviously you can't delete threads because you disagree with whatever brand / idea / thought is behind it. But this forum is called "SuperShopper" so, whatevs...

I made a suggestion on this thread (http://www.superfuture.com/city/supertalk/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=5735) to restrict new users from starting new topics until a certain amount of days. It'll prevent dumb topics and spammers.

Damn, I should've got in with my "Make me a Moderator" thread before this. I was serious as well.

There are way too many repeated threads amoung other things going on at the mo'. Really annoying.

The important thing before I report in... my position.

[meditation]

I also realise what the intention of this sub forum intentionally was. but it definitely has taken on a form of it's own (mainly interesting denim discussion) and the consensus obviously shows things are a bit out of hand right now.

Edit; Aaaaaaand, another vote for the minimum posts before thread making idea.

[RobbertJan]

i vote for the minimum posts idea to and for the separate section for buy/sale.

and moderators, isn't it possible to delete the members who own their own '' clothing line'', consisting of 4 tshirts or something, if you read most threads, u can spot those people easily.

btw where to set the minimum post limit? i mean, some people on here have like 23 posts but have been st for ages, they just read a lot and only post sometimes, but most of those people still know a lot and i think shouldn't be forced to post lots more just to be able to contribute to st.

for all the new people who ask stupid questions: use the search button, read a lot, u'll learn very quickly, cause there is a lot of info on this site, good luck!

''Don't be afraid to do stupid things, cause íf things wouldn't be stupid, everyone would be doing those things ''.

minimum post count is good. also, if someone can fix the avy upload problem that would be cool.

[guffer]

i dont know about adding a separate buy/sell forum...

remember supercult? nobody read it

just keep it as it is, with a few more mods to keep things tidy

[triniboy27]

Yah, nobody read it because it was basically the APC thread..

if we had a separate buy/sell forum, it might actually encourage some more buying/selling..
