Mods who close threads but don't post

Raptor Ribs · #1 05-28-2010, 05:21 AM

Fuck you. Unless the thread is blatantly spam or something, you should post for several reasons. Firstly, you should state why the thread is being closed so it doesn't happen again. Secondly, if the OP or another member disagrees, it can be settled through PM's.

Seriously, the mods on this site fucking suck.

It should be mandatory
If I was a mod I'd insult people and lock their threads for the lulz

Back on totse the mods always used to try and make a joke when they closed a thread. On zoklet, they don't even bother posting most of the time.

Shits gone downhill

Sometimes it's a bit difficult to really keep up with it all.

I try to post in threads that get locked or trashed but sometimes when I'm extremely busy or when it's completely and blatantly obvious, I neglect to, but if a thread is made about it I'll try to answer any questions asked about it.

Sorry for any confusion, things are always a bit hectic here on Thursday and Friday nights.

You're not the only mod here you egotistical bastard

Raptor Ribs · #7 05-28-2010, 05:34 AM

^Fair enough, but this thread wasn't just directed at you. In general, most mods don't even bother posting when they lock a thread, and thats bullshit.

True, but this thread was made very soon after I locked threads in GS so I only saw it fitting to respond and to apologize for any grievances that the negligence may have caused.

Holy shit

you posts just got better

Dfg · #13 05-28-2010, 06:32 AM

Wanted to use that one^

Anyway, by default I write a reason for locking, moving and merging threads. If I can't think of a reason to lock etc, I wouldn't lock the thread in the first place.

Most mods mention a reason others don't for some reason.

I'll usually throw at least one insult or threat at the end of the thread before closing it, so that lets me right off the hook.

Fear and rank intimidation are tools which should be found in any good moderator's toolbelt.

As true as that may be, its off topic. Please infract yourself for trolling asshat.

rider · #19 06-01-2010, 05:24 AM

-SpectraL · #20 06-01-2010, 01:25 PM

No way, Rider. This puppy's going to PEOO instead.

lol it's not hard at all to think up something witty to say to the op because lets face it when you can lock & edit & do a rape to their posts it's pretty easy to bring the lulz.
