It wouldn't be something that I'd just let you guys put together, vote, and pick the next guy. But I would take nominations from everyone, narrow that list down myself, and then let you guys vote and take the top 1 or 2 vote getters as mods.
Do you think we need a new mod? I'm not sure that's the answer.

LOL. You're such a hypocrite. Calling me a whiner, then posting this QQ post.

I see you got an actual warning today. Either way, so did he. And you're not "banned" either.

I'm with this guy on this one. Don't think we need another one, unless it's the All PWN team. Their job will be to follow snot bubbles around and infract every single post of his.

I tell you what, how about I just wipe out the entire moderating staff and allow you guys to police yourselves? I'll use a voting system like I've seen in comments sections of different websites that just delete comments with a low score. That sounds like an awesome idea!

Sounds like a pain in the ass.

Just make sleeper a moderator already. Seriously, though. Let's see if he's truly full of shit, or not.

Can the votes from the QQers be worth less points than us thick skinned posters?

QQ'ing is in the eye of the beholder. Many people could/would think that some of the things the All PWN team type are full of QQ's.

Sounds horrible. Sounds like you guys are on the same page, which definitely wasn't the case in the past. My biggest issue with the mods (aka Cry4Fail) is I would post in the thread that you, Wes, Heretic posted in after the fact with no issue. Then Cry4Fail comes along and low and behold, Infraction!!! He would also infract a post a day+ after the fact. That was bs. Consistency is the key and a new mod isn't going to help/change that. A post worthy of an infraction should be on the same grading scale across the board. Sounds like you guys are on the same page now and I think that's a good thing.

I think we need heavy handed mods like over at vaJJ's. The type that just delete posts and ban you for no reason. Well no reason but for thinking you are dlazz. That will make this site legitimate, ya think??? ;)

Common jackass sense should determine whether a post is worthy of an infraction.

I just received an infraction for asking snot if he would like "a tangible cock shoved down his throat." I give SE-Alum credit for infracting, b/c it was deserving. :)

This just happened to me. The above post of mine tells of an infraction I got from se_alum, but Justin was posting in that thread, and didn't infract. I was surprised he didn't :)

Once I wrote the post, I realized it wasn't in the basement, and figured it would get infracted. I think Snot is still contemplating, b/c he never responded to it.
