when GE fire their workers, they replace them too, but they also absorb newer ones and their number of workers accumulate. we should drop mods if they are below the 10 percentile, and hire new mods to replace them bad apples and also get a few newer ones.

a) prevent them from idling too much (evaluation)
b) get newer faces who probably could do a better job than the replaced ones.
c) no worries of hiring newer ones as if they perform below par, they can always be dropped (by getting under the 10 percentile)

I am surprised you are suggesting this based on your recent "performance" in xbox section. Besides none of us are paid, most of the mods are doing things voluntary, OR on some cases like Console Couch moderator were chosen by the community via voting.

If you think there is any bias or outrageous moderating, you can always complain here. You just need to remember, this is only a forum. (Internet is serious business!)



By the way should you be ban for continously igniting flame war in the Console Couch > Xbox section? Speaking of irony.

It's amazing how many people want to evaluate our performance and fire us, when they don't pay a single cent to use the forum or furnish us with any form of salary. Sigh.

ROTFLMAO!!!
You freeload off a person's house, use their car, their toilet, their bed, their everything, don't do a single bit for them except complaining about every bit, and demands to be respected?
LOL.. Good thick faced mentality there.

The owner of the site, as I looovvee to say, can choose to close down sections of the sites or the site itself if he wishes. It's HIS site, he MADE us a place so we can build up to be a community. It's still HIS belonging, and we as freeloaders have no rights over his belongings in any way. Therefore I myself am gratetful for this site.


Either way, are we going off topic here?

Nope, your no where near off topic, IMHO.

You are clearly showing the "mentality" of many LYN forumers here who just don't appreciate the value of a REAL Community and yet vandalise the whole place.

~Cheers!

woo wee
this is the one i waiting for ...


since you can make it famous
you go make penang.com or myseclub.net famous then

you think that this forum start with all the sponsor?
with many system upgrades, for what?
and with waht money to furnished this upgrades?

then you all found out the sponsor money this forum is genarating
maybe you felt slighted cause you dont see a penny of it?

but still it is the owner and the administrator finds way to "make profit"
and the user of this forum is indirectly helping the cause
then you felt that this means you have the right to order thing around


it is not that user cannot suggest something
but things that based on ppl cannot control their own action
is not worthy as a suggestion

if ppl have some restrain and better judgemnet on their action
none of this problem happens

very simple - you love the place, please don't be the vandal. please don't be the goon that tarnish the places' image. please don't do unnecessary things that burden the resources available.

remember, just because LYN is free for all and being lenient on some parts that doesn't mean you spam like nobody's business.

do remember that each spam you make and how you behave on the forum DOES have an effect on the system in general - how about learn to be considerate? not just to the founders but also to the rest of the forum participants.

don't be selfish., spare the server resources for everyone to enjoy.

Firstly, I think u ppl misunderstood my earlier post.
I was referring to altie's comment that we the users do not pay them anything.
And i see that some ppl are going on and explaining the system of the internet.
Lets make it clear.
Internet is money.
Nobody would want to create a website or blog or forum for fun. U dun beleive me? Take a look at ur blog or ur frens blog or sum random picked blogs. You will notice there will be an advertisement box on the side of the page. The more ppl click on it, the more the owner of the blog earns.
It is a simple and starightforward explanation.
I feel that the moderators act as the policemen of this forum. So, ur job is to monitor and maitain the integrity of this forum .
So, pls do not downgrade urself by asking us to shut our mouth when we have a say on this forum's future.

And also, I am also in support of the suggestion by the TS for a proper, special access Kopitiam.
Merci.

A say in the forum as a member is fine, but consider the way you phrased yourself in the previous post. You phrased it such that you in fact make people misunderstand you. Nobody twisted your meaning, you just were far to vague.

Moderators' JOB? They ain't paid you know, it is volunteer work. AND, they do have the right of speech, which is a request for silence. AND they are no were near downgrading themselves while doing so.
