Ignore Moderators (2)

[hackbike 666]

I seem to notice you ma have added an ignore thingy for moderators,of which BentMikey wanted or am I going senile?

Not that I have a problem with moderators anyway.

Yes I know that was a bit crawly bum lick.

What's happened to Cab anyway? Has he banned himself?

Nah,this is what I mean.Is it a new thing and is that what BM wanted or am I just losing the plot?

Perhaps I explained it badly first time and you didn't know what I meant.

so has Cab left here to cyberstalk BM?

 

[hackbike 666]

No you can't Hackers, if you try to ignore it comes up that you can't because said person is a Mod. That is what annoyed BM becuas he wanted to ignore Cab but couldn't because Cab is a Mod.

Thanks a sensible answer at last instead of a few p-takers

Cheers.

I noticed that and all though I didn't agree with some things in his video I wondered what happened to him.

Strange it can't be changed.Im sure the mods could ban you if they wanted.I know of a (snitz) message board where they just ban you and you can't log on...then again you can't put anyone on ignore on that board.

FWIW BM still posts on BROL, as for Cab I think He is a bit of a pretentious idiot who was quick to put his Mod hat on when it suited him.

Ouch.What is BROL? I know he posts on YACF.


Got it,Bent Rider On Line.

As I understand it, the software doesn't allow you to 'ignore' a mod, unless Admin also enables it so that you can ignore both mods and admin, which Admin felt (and I for one agree) isn't a good idea - that way people could ignore any kind of 'authority' (I reckon Admin is pretty light handed) on the forum - or miss announcements and so on.

It's not a mod/admin choice so much, as a software limitation.

And yes, we mods can just ban you. But pretty generally, unless you are a purveyor of spam, we don't, certainly not without lengthy discussion.

As far as I remember, Cab tends to 'put his mod hat on', as you put it, in order to call for a little calm when a thread got heated. I don't recall him ever talking a unilateral decision over any action - that is not the way we operate.

 

[alecstilleyedye]

if a moderator oversteps the mark, you should pm admin, who will look into it, and act accordingly behind the scenes if necessary.

 

[Origamist]

Neither do I, I know it's not. However Cab was pretenious imo, and didn't encourage discussion. You only have to look at his thread on his vid which shows him going through a TCM.

Not pretentious so much, but tetchy and dismissive from time to time. That said, I'd like to have him back and I hope his absence is temporary.

Aren't we all? I know I can be.

You? Lovely, sensible you? I think you'll find that you're a mere amateur when it comes to displaying tetch whereas I am the Bernard Hinault of tetchiness.
