I've posted this on another tread, but this forum is now huge.

I think the current mods need a bit more help, even if they are doing a good job. It must be difficult to keep track of such a big forum.

I nominate these guys:

General Ashnak
Arthur
Gyfox

These guys are all pretty levelheaded and I've seen them enter many posts.


I know these guys are mods:

I'm No Freak
Erebus
Funky Munky
Joffa
Benjamin
Stifler's Mum
Site Admin

Who have I missed?

The requirement to be a mod is:

Need to be online for 23.5 hours a day.

Have NO social life what so ever

They're at least two - pretty sure all 3 fall out of that category.

;)

WHATCHOO TALKIN' 'BOUT HEINEKEN????

I nominate:

AfromanGT
Scouse_Roar
Skinet
Ljubo Milicevic
Bonkers
Heineken
Soft News
J-Dog

I will nominate myself.

This is an Australian Football forum. How many of the current mods know or do anything about Australian Football? The only two on that list would be Benjamin and Joffa, and to a lesser extent Erebus.

Heart Fans like Daniel Torres are all new dawners and are not eligible for moderator status.

Hahaha.

Me no new dawner. Me be going to NSL games since 2001. Me no Heart fan either.

:cry: I know a lot about Australian Football. A lot of that is Socceoro related though, not domestic competitions.

With Rigas to edit the print magazine.

IMNO! Of course, you're one of the mods who knows a lot about the national team. But as you say, not much at domestic level.

Do you need to know how many goals Harper scored for Marconi in the 90s to be a mod here?

I didn't see it in the application form.

Mods are there to moderate. They are not there to spurt facts. Use wikipedia for that.

The mods edit wikipedia pages.

Just saying.

Mods just need to moderate, end of.

Yeh but, i'm not a mod... 8-[

I would moderate with wonderful fairness and equality

lol jk I'd just ban Coasties

Seriously, its only the crap that goes on in extra time that keeps the mods busy, most shit that occurs in the other forums are usually born out of the shit you guys give each other in extra time.

So what you want is a shit load more moding to take place in a forum which is low on our moding priorities.

You don't need more mods, you need to grow up and behave like adults, even though most of you are kids.

Agree with this totally, watching the behaviour of some members over the past week has been quite disturbing, especially considering the age of these members. It's an online forum which we use to discuss football and all things related, not a zoo like it has been lately.

Build a bridge and get the fuck over it, or go find another forum cause this crap isn't needed here.

Bingo. Last time I checked this was a football forum. Over the past two weeks it's looked more like Degrassi.

+1 There's been more crybabies here than a daycare centre.

If it was old school Degrassi, there would have been drug overdoses, teen pregnancy, fatal car accidents and suicides by now.

*doublepost*

Edited by f1dave: 10/5/2011 04:08:19 PM

I'm sure if you take your blinkers off for a moment you'll see the hysterical posts which pretty much equate to the same thing... :-"

And of COURSE this isn't the old school Degrassi. This is the A-League... it's Degrassi: The New Generation.
:lol: :lol: :lol:

So you're saying it sucks then?

Yes.

Plus, there are a few hangers on from the old series.

But of course we shouldn't be negative, we should like Degrassi:TNG for the good of all television in this country. ;)

All for more mods who browse and lurk AF at least marginally more than the other threads.
Although recently it has become a little more easier to bear.
For every 1 silly post made in ET, there at least 2.23 sillier posts made in AF.

I've done the research...

Yeah sure, you've researched every comment ever made in both threads and passed judgement on what you believe is silly and come up with a statistic of 2.23/1#-o
BTW: I guess is whatever your interpretation of silly is? Clearly you’re not here for the football because in ET it is rarely discussed, therefore you must find football related threads silly.

Ahahah
](*,)

Quite the contrary in fact

I don't even bother going into ET. So my definition of silly in AF would probably result in a lot more bans / thread closures than what you dish out.

Great comeback

Yep, maybe, but if you read the forum rules you'll find I stay within the required guidelines, it's not up to a mod to moderate what he/she may not like, we moderate what is outside the forum rules, and we are not baby sitters.

Oh, sorry, but I didn't realise you have the intelligence mind capacity of a budding mid-ranged junior student. Have you no sense sir?

How dare you doubt my number crunching, fact finding abilities. I'll have you know I come from a respected, knowledgeable, footballing focused fan-friendly fortified, line of factory workers.

I want to see the equation, in chalk on a blackboard on how you came up with that statistic.

It could also be suggested that the AF:ET post ratio is around 5.7:1 so obviously there will be more silly posts in AF compared to ET, and only 2.23:1 is not a bad ratio if you take into account my aforementioned ratio of posts between the subforums.

And also, like StiflersMom said, just because you don't agree with it, doesn't mean its delete/ban worthy. There may be "silly" and uninformed posts in AF, at the very least its good for a chuckle every now and then :lol:

I thought Sanga was being tongue in cheek?

#-o

Quiet you :P. I just thought Stifler was honestly having a go. I know you weren't.

Penny drops, though he was serious.

What's this about new mods?

If I become a mod, I shall delete the 2011/12 A-League Kits thread. :) Pick me! Pick me!

70 percent of me is water, and
the other part, the real part that has feelings and emotions and thoughts and makes decisions, and if I can be crass, makes babies, that part, thinks that all of these changes... Suck balls

It would be nice just to get rid of the spam.

/locks thread.

I'd just moderate useless crap like childish behavior... not because I don't like it, but because it's useless crap ;)

I hear that.

I vote for this guy to be a mod. He is living proof that inbreeding in Adelaide can take very different genetic forms.

I never would have thought of inbreeding as the reason for Adelaidians having such diverse genetic makeups! What are those animal breeders doing so wrong :-k

what that? you want a mod originally from africa.....8-[

edit: i swear when i type my posts they look fine, but later on i see the mistakes. ](*,)

Edited by zimbos_05: 13/5/2011 10:56:46 PM

I think you heard wrong, I'm pretty sure they said they wanted one from New Zealand 8-[

Regional NSW was what I heard funnily enough. 8-[

well then, looks like us outer folk need to start a revolucion. 8-[

I propose a breakaway football forum where we can all be mods

Those in Bold you have got to be kidding me ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Edited by Davstar: 13/5/2011 11:33:19 PM

i agree Scouse_Roar he might be nuts and bias as all hell to Roar but at least he tell it like it is. None of this NSW bias crap!

Heineken is alright but he goes for SFC we have enough nsw bias crap in football as it is

Edited by Davstar: 13/5/2011 11:33:02 PM

:lol: :lol: :lol:

davstar really hates u gen:lol:

Benjamin is one of the most level headed ive seen on the forum and he knows his shit too.

zimbos its davstar he hates everyone who knows more about football then he does!

Fixed\:d/

lol stiflersmom

I'm trying to figure out why anyone would actually want to be a mod.

why dont u become a mod matt?

e-penis

This.



oh wait....

Clearly a sign that you have a lack of a sex life i reckon...

yeah its that :roll:
Those that pay attention will notice that I'm not here out of business hours :lol: :lol:

FTR I was a mod when this place opened and there were like 15 people around.

Edited by Erebus: 16/5/2011 10:41:15 AM

Here we go..."Back in my day..."

When I was a lad you had to wait for the modem to get a dial tone before it called your ISP in order to connect to the internet!

I nominate PAOKTZI

I had a 28.8K modem. I was delighted when we upgraded to 56k and I could play Age of Empires over it with only 10 seconds of lag between clicking my mouse and seeing a unit move.

I went 50/50 into a 33.6k modem which cost like $190 from memory :shock:
My older brother set up our first internet connection through his Uni's ISP or something, it was kinda prepaid and depending on the hour of the day depended on how much it cost (obviously in the middle of the night it was a lot cheaper). I will never forget or miss that modem connecting sound.

This was all on a P100. Imagine how fast that internet experience was! MP3's didn't even exist back then I don't think (well at least not in the way they exist now) and having a hex speed CD-Rom was the shit! :cool:

P133, 4x CD-ROM (to replace the single speed once I got AOE), Napster beta.


Bitch.

Tape Drives FTW!

C64 :cool:

Oh god, I can't think of anything worse.

Atari 2600. Woo... River Raid!

I'll keep you convict VB drinkes in line!

How dare you, that is the biggest insult you could give to a true blue Aussie, I would never ever drink that shit.

Can I please become a mod?

Say's all it has too, really. :roll:
