What happens in SOCN stays in SOCN. That forum has special access and its own set of rules for a reason. How an admin or mod feels about political issues has absolutely NOTHING to do with how they run the board. Another reason why SOCN is "separate." Considering Ghostworks isn't even a SOCNer (no * next to his name), I would doubt this has anything to do with SOCN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tick Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 QUOTE (ghostworks @ Dec 6 2010, 03:19 PM) I tend to hold Administrators to a higher standard, for good reason - their behavior is the template for the rest of the boards' behavior (whether they like it or not.) If any Admin feels comfortable addressing another member with vulgarity/personal insults, etc., that Admin essentially gives permission for members to treat each other in the same way. Do you agree that Admins should be more accountable for their behavior than 'regular' members, or do you think that a 'do as I say, not as I do' approach is acceptable? One question...

You missed Ghostworks whining about every single thing he can think of - recently, and I believe what sparked this, is his disdain for the rules on signature sizes. Here are his latest posts so you can see how much he bitches (yet still hangs here on a daily basis for whatever reason - probably just to cry): http://www.therushforum.com/index.php?act=...lluser&mid=4609 http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b277/barney_rebel/post-2084-1118327452.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you agree that Admins should be more accountable for their behavior than 'regular' members, or do you think that a 'do as I say, not as I do' approach is acceptable? From my experience in the forum here, the admins seem like pretty decent guys and don't seem to be on power trips and abuse their power. The big problem with your thread is that you make accusations but don't even back them up with examples! Sure, I think that they maybe get involved and joke around more than most admins do, but that just makes them seem more human than most admins in other forums! I like the idea that I can jokingly take a shot at the admins here and they get that it is just a joke! Most other forums would ban people for things like that!

Right - I thought he WAS a member, didn't look for the asterisk. My error and apologies. I don't think you CAN hold yourselves to a "higher" standard and still participate on the forum to the extent that you do. You'd have to moderate from more of an observer point of view, which would suck. I understand the need to maintain a certain objectivity, which can't be easy.

BeOhBe Bob Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 There's no need to dignify this "poll" with a vote, but I will reply. As Admins? Only 3 (THREE) to run a board with over 8000 members, and what maybe 5 (FIVE) mods to assist? They do a f*cking great job, and really what is there to complain about? Really...what's your beef? Spell it out for us or shut the f up. Remember this board is for fun not fighting. If you believe this place to be for anything other than amusement, a hobby, a "timewaster" so to speak? you're in the wrong place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
