There are a couple of dromies that I haven't seen on the new forums. Where's Leeahd, divadawg (and lildawg a more recent poster, but still)? Ali Pinto? Have you guys been posting and I missed it? Do they know the new forums are up?

I'm pretty sure I saw Leeahd in another thread. As for the Dawg sisters, not too sure what's up there. If I see them in IRC chat I'll let them know that the link has changed... I know my old bookmark comes up with an error now, so perhaps that's where they're checking.

Yay! Diva is here, now let's get this party started.

Hon, you don't get a title change until after 30 posts, so it's going to be a long wait if you do :p. Speaking of which, this should have put me over the hump for that.

I feel like I haven't talked to you guys in years!! After the forums were down for a couple days and then I was busy with my play (2 more weeks!!) and a couple auditions... the only person I've talked to in almost a week is Leeahd.

I'm going to start posting my butt off so that I can get my status to where it belongs and school these newbies that are already members!

Yeah. I miss the olds posts as well. There was some good stuff in there.

As for the post counts, I'd prefer people to recognize me as their superior by my name, not the number of posts I have ;)

Clearly, diva, people recognize you based on your name... not to mention, on the old forums, there wasn't even a way to view post counts. You had to pull up the member profile, click to view all posts, and multiply the number of pages by 10 to get a semi accurate number of posts.

See, the thing is -- being a geek in and of itself means passion. We're passionate about our forums, just like movies, etc. So you're going to see some passion with regards to who will be moderating our geek haven and I, for one, am not exactly clear as to what this moderating will consist of, who is going to be moderating, etc. We're not used to moderating so some of us have the slightest geek concern. AND it's not easy to forget all of the time and geek-ergy we put into the numerous threads only to be listed as "junior member". Yes, it's just a title, we get it, but you can't just say..."we are recognized by name, be happy about it" We are geeks! This is what we do. So be straight, say..."we can't change the titles, sorry", but don't try to handle us (or me if I'm the only one who feels this way).

I like diva, she knows this forum. She knows when someone is being mean spirited or just being themselves or just having a little fun. She's been here since day one, so I will stand by my opinion that she should be a moderator. It's just my opinion and being the geek that I am, I have lots of them and express them often, especially here.

So maybe you're not trying to put any spin on this, but I feel like I'm being modded (not a word) by someone's username I barely recognize and I don't like it.

So put up a sticky about this moderating thing, let us know what's going on in detail.

Done with my geek ranting and remember I love this place and all who are in it (even thundercat). I'm not pissed, just expressing how I feel to my geek family.

The thing that buggs me is that these guys weren't here before by choice and the only reason they're here now is because they have to be, not because they want to be. We're a famly and you're newbs to us, we don't know your personalities, and respect hasn't been earned yet. Somebody go build a ****ing gauntlet or a thunderdome so we can test them.

Reality is that the new forums allow a lot more posting than before - they are faster, have more features, and will hopefully attract a lot more users. Because of this you need some janitors around - thats all we are - someone to mop up the mess, douse the occassional flamefest if it gets out of hand, shuffle some threads around if they are being duplicated, etc. we are not big brother.

As I said in this thread here (http://revision3.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4609&postcount=61):

1. Moderators

Yes there are moderators. I am one of them.
We are respecting the "culture" of each of the forums that has been established. We are not going to come in here and tell you to put away your toys, clean your rooms, wash your hands and come down for dinner. We are not your parents. We are people like you. We live here as well.

Will there be a moderator picked from the Dromies? Absolutely some of you have put forward names of people you want. Expect an announcement soon.

Until then - ask yourself ... OK, there are mods, but have they been interferring with you guys doing what you normally do? I don't think so ... and if there have been issues, take it up in PM directly with the mod or one of the other mods.

I also said


Basically, you guys are self moderating. It will stay that way - we WONT be tolerating racial slurs, and will probably throw a bucket of water on flame fests that go on too long, and might close threads that could be termed "illegal". But thats about it.

The forums are about you. They are not about the mods. They are not about swearing for the sake of swearing.

Go at it, and enjoy yourselves.

If somevhow that is condescending, or stepping on toes, or otherwise offending your sense of freedom of speech - hey, I am sorry, but it is what it is.

Can we give the moderator topic a rest now? Please??

I agree with both sides here... with the new forum we've already seen tons of new people joining up. This is a great thing! Great for Revision3, great for podcasting in general and potentially great for Geekdrome. So yeah, adding a ton of new personalities and whatnot could cause some problems and (for everyone's posting/reading pleasure) therefore, having some sheriffs around is the way to go... not to be bad guys or kick anyone off, but just to make sure that no one is causing most everyone else to not have a good time anymore. That said, I do think its a good idea for a Geekdrome alumni (or 3) be in charge of the Geekdrome disscussions.

I'm completely willing to put in the work... heck, I've already broken up a few fights (in the old forums) and just generally been "forum mother" I have never been a moderator before (mostly because I haven't cared enough about any other forum) but I'm sure the other mods would help out (?) Anyway... I don't know if any of that means anything to the people with power, but I'm here for my dromies (if you need me!) :)

No, I'd like a kiss. I'll let you decide where, but I can tell you where my preference would be. :)

All of this information, in a nice sticky thread or fancy FAQ would have been helpful to educate thus reducing the amount of animosity, suspicion and general questions. But mod away, mod away my friend.

Geeks tend to move when the issue runs it's course, you'll probably see a little more.

Yeah, just one last quick thing to point out: I don't think there has been a single locked thread, deleted post* or warned user here. Really, you wouldn't even know we were mods if the topic of mods hadn't come up. Well, and that moderator title thingy.

As for being outsiders, some may be, but I pity the foo who thinks I'm here because I "have to be."

I'm here to educate young people about the virtues of alcohol!

*In the first few hours the forums were up, some posts about the IRC were deleted because of potential legal issues. Once that was cleared up by Jay, we allowed the IRC posts back in.

The purpose of having one of our own as a mod would be to have this person responsible for the content of the drome in a way that preserves the ancient ways of our forums. Anyone can be a mod, but the most important part is that we get someone that we can all respect and agree on, cause that's what this is about. Not violating our old ways and going back to what we used to have not but a week ago, and it's just a decision that has to be made soon, b/c I'm sure like the rest of the dromies I'm aching to have overall harmony, contentment and to finally go back to comics.

yeah, definetely. as far as i know, they're only considering me for now, and i just wanted to clear that up with people to make sure it was ok, cause i got a lotta nominations in the "to all the dromies" thread, and all the billion people in the completely unofficial irc currently seem to be ok with it. I've gotten a message from Jonathan saying I was good for the job, as well. So, I just wanna not piss anyone off and get all this over with, cause we're self moderated anyway, we don't need constant watchdog/nazi mods. If I go through, I think it'll be cool, but if not, then I don't think we have too good a chance to get people on there. But for now, it's "in talks", so I wanna make sure that's cool with everyone. It would be really laissez-faire and nothing would change, except that if little kids with pokemon/dragonballz avatars come in and troll it up, something might have to be done if we can't take care of it ourselves (like we aaaaallllways have). I also wanna try and get rid of the filters.

Hey all, long time forum reader and Drome watcher but I think only posted like 4 times on the old forums (I did the Jon & Dan Goonies photoshop). I will probably starting posting more now, the old forums were such a pain (:

The thing that buggs me is that these guys weren't here before by choice and the only reason they're here now is because they have to be, not because they want to be. We're a famly and you're newbs to us, we don't know your personalities, and respect hasn't been earned yet. Somebody go build a ****ing gauntlet or a thunderdome so we can test them.Wait, did we have choice about being here before? ****... what a monumental waste of time! I could have gone outside or... uh... nevermind.

Tech jargon isn't what the Drome is about. Now if you can name 5 members of Camp Anawana without using IMDB then we'll be impressed.You got me. Cultural reference - I needed to lookup Camp Anawana in IMDB ... In my defence - a.) I am over 30, b.) I grew up with 2 TV channels (only got 5 free to air channels in my teens), and c.) I am an Aussie that hadn't seen Nicelodeon until I moved to the US in 97 (and experience cable TV for the first time).
