ITT: We will discuss inconsistent moderating of the OC

Scarlet_Buckeye posted a thread about Zwick's baby nobody cares about, and I get removed from discussion for posting "nobody cares".

Belly posts a thread asking about Ankle Holsters and several mods reply with off-topic political posts, derailing the entire thread. No action is taken.

Nice work, guys. You're doing a bang-up job.

I'm sure he'll pop his head in here and drop a knowledge bomb on us soon about how they've cleaned up the moderating.

Bonus: He was one of the people who helped derail the thread.

Hold up there ocers..
Justine is doing a fantastic job a monitoring, moderating and administrating this site. His mods are top flight and help keep this site the best in the biz. He is underworked, overpaid and he does US a service for creating this fine site.

You all just need to step back and realize that without him we all would be doing other things instead of the OC and being more productive members of society. If Sleeper didnt have the OC he would managing a BUrger King instead of the fry guy at McDonalds.

He is doing his best, and doggone it, it is good enough!

The thread was already derailed by the time I got there. I was trying to prevent the zwick thread from going that way.

He just did you a favor.
Maybe you will learn your lesson and become a better OCer in the future and will be allowed to participate in such threads.

He really did just do it for your own good.

There is no reason to use that type of language even if this is the basement.

Not sure what QQ means, but if you use it I have to believe it is something around the second grade mentality.

You must have heard it in the lunch line. Good for you.

I was removed from the thread too for saying I don't give a fuck. Although it's a petty removal, I too do not give a fuck about being removed from that fail thread.

I never understood the point of crying about mods on the internet. Is it really that important?

Say you're playing kickball on the playground at school. The big kids (mods) are pitching garbage/bouncy balls a good portion of the game. You get your chance to pitch, and you do the same as they did. They immediately toss you from the game. You were playing the game just like they were, but you are no longer permitted to play.

It's like that, except without sports or physical activity.

And most of the mods are douchebags/experts at everything/like NASCAR/etc.

I just have a god complex (since one should actually exist, unlike Cap'n Bible Dude, amirite?).

Hope this helps, mortal worm.

It's not trolling if it's true right? You do make some QQ threads. Honestly though, if it were Belly making the thread he would've went on a dyslexic rant about how the postal service is taking away our civil liberties, tax dollar, and guns.

What if all of us regulars (all 14 of us) had moderator powers? Would it be out of control or would it be better?

Personally, I would never use it. I guess some of you would probably just fuck with each other.
