To get started with this approach, random people have been given moderation powers for this section. Haha. If you're among the candidates but don't want to be, just say so.
This is just meant as an additional small help to perhaps make this section more usable: users who should be able to help out with moderating a bit when and if they feel like it. Doesn't mean they have to run this board or watch over it all the time or anything, and you shouldn't expect them to.
They're not responsible for fulfilling your requests, either! Obviously.
Now, who wants to have nothing to do with it, and--who else want or should be added??
-
Wow... didn't even notice I was a mod for a bit. Cool. Maybe now I can get rid of some of that flaming there.
-
I don't think it was that random... All the new mods seem to be people who spent time on the requests without being leecher-like.
-
Yeah, that did come to mind when I saw Blue was also a mod.
Granted, it *shouldn't* be that random anyways.
-
I'd be willing to offer my services. But, I won't be offended if I'm not chosen.
-
If you want help for clean some shit in the request section...i'm here! :sugoi:
-
Well, guess I can drop by here and there to help. But never relied on moderation powers really --;
-
Hey kewl I'm a moderator :D. Didn't notice till...about 2 minutes.
So let me get this straight, we are more of a "free-lance moderators" right? Not obliged to moderate every damn moment the request sections, but to keep an eye on it every know and then ???.
And our main job is to moderate stupid requests, total noobs, rude people, and the likes?
And finally, is the 1-thread-per-user function functioning now? Or not. And when it triggers, we'll have a notice?It's been done.
Oh, I'm SO gonna (ab)use my moderator powah :mugoi:.
Edit: I fucking need to read more closely.
-
i wouldn't mind being a moderator either ^_^. I can always spot out the crappy or awkward things in this forum lol. The only thing i'm missing is a cool sig, that's about it haha.

It's official. Sepp's gone batshit insane.

Is everyone okay with me editing posts that say "I need someone" to "I want someone"?

Is everyone okay with me editing posts that say "I need someone" to "I want someone"?
Absolutely...I think we all should do it, actually...and maybe to be pains in their asses, we should keep telling them they never actually NEED a character until they stop :sugoi:
-
Is everyone okay with me editing posts that say "I need someone" to "I want someone"?
What if they REALLY need it ???. Like, if they don't download that char in x time, their wife/lover/girlfriend/closest woman in life gets it?
Nah, really, suit yourself.

Don't like this one... it's harder and tiring to spot all. But will do what's possible when around.

I'll help with the one thread thing if I can.

Don't try to spot them all. If you happen to spot one and also happen to feel like doing a bit of moderation then have at you =)
-
K.
But it wasn't about moderation, was more about being able to answer easily and faster.
And seeing that online stuff was uploaded less...
-
Question: Are threads being bumped when they're posted in?
-
Yup
-
hmm, talk about moderators, what happened to cybaster? Haven't heard from him for a while lol. Vacation? :P

He just changed his name..

There are more important things you could do, but if you want to be anal, go ahead.

Alright then!

Erm... I have a problem. Yesterday I moved two topics to another thread. And now, that I wanted to stary my own request thread, it said it redirected me to my "original thread", which is one of the threads I moved :S:
"You can only have one topic in the request forum.
You were redirected to reply to the one you had already created.
Subject: Re: MOVED: request special effect sprites"
Could any administrator help me out with this one? I'd like to have my real request thread :P.
-
I would like to become a mod in the request section since i can deal with hectic stuff like this.
I was a mod before on a GTA:San andreas online server (yeah,there is a modification for GTA:SA which can enable multiplayer),which i had to deal with the worst noobs far more worse than any leecher here,and that in a real-time game.
-
Could any administrator help me out with this one? I'd like to have my real request thread :P.
Haha. I moved the MOVED topics to the recycle bin. (You could have done that yourself.)
This is a drawback of the 1 topic only modification... hmmm... well then, just don't post MOVED topics when you move a topic. You can still use the PM feature when moving topics to at least inform the topic starter, that will have to do here.
Replying to the other posts tomorrow, sleep now.
-
So far, I'm liking the changes. The board looks much cleaner.
-

Aye, and there aren't 7000 threads being created every day, or posts being made.
-
Sign me up too, I want to be a cantidate if that's alright, I've only filled one request so far. Is that okay? Or do you have to make a certain amount of requests to be a mod here?
-
Now, who wants to have nothing to do with it, and--who else want or should be added??
I was just gonna ask why everyone's asking to mod when I saw that. Lol.
As for me, if you want to, fine, but don't think I'm pushing for it.

yeah, in my opinion, you were one of the better moderators, especially when "I" was new to this. You bitched at people for the right reasons and didn't abuse the power (like some might be doing).
-
:sweetheart: ... :P
-
People are getting moar and moar lazy now with the requests :P. I thing I've seen lots of requests for things that are online.
Bleh, at least the request section is way cleaner than before. Hurray for us the moderators and this 1-thread-per-user idea :kungfugoi:
And yes, Cybaster (Demitri, whatever) was, of the old staff, one of the most easy going, at least for me.
-

You're just pissy that I told you not to needlessly spam topics :sugoi:
But really, the guild lost nearly all respect with the new rules, and if I have to be an asshole to some n00b who doesn't feel like going to Google and typing in "Spiderman MvC Mugen," and getting his results in two seconds, I will. It's not like the section is teaching them how to do the work for themselves, its reinforcing the fact when someone's just going to hand everything to them on a silver platter, contrary to the way things work for the rest of us, and everywhere else.
The Guild needs its respect back if its actually going to see growth from this. We need to show the creators elsewhere who absolutely despise what's happened that we at the guild simply aren't screwing them over, and that the community can benefit from the way things are here, that this isn't just some place for leechers to come and request something thats online simply because they're lazy. We need to set an example for everyone else, especially those who left, that hey, the Guild isn't JUST a place for leechers and the sort, but its still THE place to go, as it was once before.

It's Honkey's 4 step program. Try to give 'em a warning, then threaten the lock. For those too ignorant, lock = win.
On a side note: Seeing as how Infantry at least has a database going, should we add that to the 4 step program. It's real helpful for people to determine "online-ness".
And... DISCUSS!

Me aproves it :thumbsup:.
I've noticed the increasing numbers of requests of characters that are online or don't even exist. Like, they request the first goddamn thing that comes to their mind. Oh fellow mods, what should we do? Redirecting them to the "does this exist" thread is obvious, but some guys really need a more harsh solution.
I mean, the requests are open to anyone. But that doesn't mean you can act stupidily on it.
-
PM them with a warning and a link to the 5 step program, then if they don't listen, lock their thread for 24hours. If the offenses continue, report them to global mods. Sound reasonable?
-
Can i be a random mod? :D

Have you passed the tests? Let me remind you of them:
1. Write a tesis about why Mugen is better than Wii/PS3/Xbox360
2. Contact a long lost creator. Such as Flowagirl, Ironmugen, and the likes.
3. Defeat the mighty wyvern.

they didn't do any mod work and probably weren't even aware they were mods :P

It is NOT a moderator's job to fulfill requests. A moderator's job is to make sure the forum rules are followed.

OH! :o My bad.Anyway Fulfilling out requests is something I like.So I'll just be a user that fulfills requests.

Hell, if that was the case, I'd be a terrible mod. I'll normally help when I can, but my knowledge of Mugen characters is fairly limited compared to others.

Same here.

Not me.I found loads of chars.But I'm not God that knows where every character can be found.

On a moar serious note, I'd like to change the name of "Does this Thing Exist" to: "DOES THIS THING EXIST/WHO CREATED THIS THING".
Something more less like that. Opinions?
-
Making it Caps wont really make more people read it :S
-
Heh, I thought of a little experiment.
In the "5 Steps for Finding Chars" thread, add clausule that said (if you didn't find your char/stage):
"Copy this in your Request Thread:
I've done the 5 Steps but couldn't find my desired creation. Thus, I make a Request.
"
or whatever.
Now, the people who actually looked at that thread would copy that sentence into their request threads, then us mods would know he tried his best for his own and wasn't lazy, and viceversa.
Yeah, it doesn't affect in any way, but I thought it could be kinda interesting. Also, I wanted moar discussion :P.
-
I've had an idea similar to that before. But what if people read this and *not* the 5 steps? And just posted it there so they have an excuse to be lazy?
-
Well, those kind of people wouldn't use the 5 steps anyway, so I guess they waste 3 minutes of their life :mugoi:.
Now, let me put this hypothethical case, Wujizah:
The word spreads that you have to put that phrase to have your requests been taken seriously. I (a random guy) enter the "5 Step Thread" with the purpose of copy/pasting that line, but then I, by chance, have a glimpse at the steps: "Hmm...maybe that works...O SHI! it worked :D."
I'm damn sure it would increase the usage of the 5 steps at least a little bit.
-
Geneous r u.
-
Meanwhile, the author of the 5 Steps sits in the corner with his thumb up his butt.
Actually, that's a pretty good idea. I'll add that now.
-
you should really clean up the stickies. right now there are no less than four rule-related threads here - might as well merge them all up into one with all the rules and guidelines in a bunch.
and this one should be renamed to "moderator discussion / feedback" or something, to make it obvious that it's not a rule thread.
Oh yeah I also thought of something - when someone makes a thread here, I could add a check if the rules thread has been marked as read, and give an error if it hasn't. thoughts?

Agreed, agreed, and awesome idea.
*This thread renamed*
Well, my fellow moderators, here are my ideas...
We keep K.O.D.'s rules thread (maybe change the title)
We insert Cyanide's "Private Vs. Rare Vs. etc..." thread into it as a quote.
We do the same with Sepp's "How requests work"
Maybe we should remove the testp workfiles thread?
That will turn 4 threads into 1.
I can get right on this as soon as I get home from work (about 9 hours from time of last edit). Unless someone objects before that time.
Any other suggestions/ideas?
-

Insert them as the second and third posts, but yeah. Also, use more formatting. [hr] and [b] are your friends :)
Maybe we should remove the testp workfiles thread?
I renamed the testp workfiles thread so it's obvious it's a kind of request, not a should-read-sticky.
-
New rules are up, old rules are deleted, added "5 Easy Steps" as 2nd post, added "Looking for Music" as 3rd post, and added "Private Vs Rare etc." as 4th post.
Seriously people, the double-posting's gotta stop. Every time I check this board, I have to merge posts in at least 3 threads.
-
I'm considering making a slight change to the bump rule. What I'm thinking is ALLOWING double-posting as long as there is at least a week between posts. But, if it's just a blatant bump, it's an instant topic lock.
Thoughts?
-
What would be more less the criteria on which to judge whether a double-post is good or just a bump?
-
Adding another request would be acceptable. I.E. "I'm also looking for..."
Just repeating a previous one would be just a bump. I.E. "Anyone?" or the popular "fine fuck u guys then."
-
I'm still not unlocking that one thread (the one where "fine fuck u guys then" came from). 24 hours isn't long enough if he's going to have that attitude. For not reading the rules, maybe a day or two, although it wouldn't do much to some who don't request that often, as well as the fact that there are other forums with request sections. But for being an asshole, it should be indefinite.
-
I fully agree with you, Wujizah.
-
It doesn't take a genius to see that I havn't been on the request boards for quite a while now. Between work and my daughter's school functions, I havn't been able to perform my duties as a moderator. So, I propose that someone else take my place. Val, feel free to chose who/how you see fit. I'll still be around, just not very often.
-
Aaand I haven't been around enough to perfom my admin duties.
How's the request section doing as a whole?
-
A few strange topics now and then which get sorted out,but everything else is fine.
Also,im thinking of cleaning up the dead request topics when the page count reaches 40 (will clean up from page 20 onwards)
-
Although I, like Honkey, haven't been able to "moderate" the Requests section as much as I did before, I've actually seen that the waters here have settled a lot. Seems like a more calm place and not so much flaming as it was before.
Also, If I'm not mistaken Honkey, we aren't "completely-official" moderators so we don't have to worry as much as for example, Iced on doing our jobs and we still keep our green stars at least on section ;P.
-
I guess I could hold on to my green star a little while longer...
-
yay
K.O.D : I've always wanted to edit a admin's post :)

Sepp was supposed to delete the old pages but he didn't,so i had to manually remove them.

I've been thinking of creating a "Creator Websites" topic with a list of creator websites since it would help significantly.
Thoughts?
-
That'd be a database
I don't see nothing wrong with that.

Can we Please Clarify the rules about sending online Mugen creations.
The Section Description says: "Please do not abuse this section and only request something if you find yourself unable to get it any other way."
Which to me clearly says that one should not request online creations here.
Also in this post - http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=71750.msg598293#msg598293. Honkey answered me directly about the Online sending policy.
Yet, Here - http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=79436.msg683681#msg683681, KOD states there is no such rule.
So can the admins please Clarify the rules of this section regarding this issue. I understand that you wan't as little rules as possible. But there is no reason we should be sending online creations, It's disrespectful for the creators who actually keep their creations online for people to download. I don't believe the request section should be a free ticket for those who don't want to take more effort to find things.
-
Let's see.
If the creation is online and does not require any registration,special permissions,crap,etc. then link to the creator's website.
If the creation is online but requires registration,special permissions,crap,etc. then sending them would be no problem.
However, there is no set rule for this, it is entirely up to the posters ethic or w/e.
-
So, who replaces K.O.D as request section mod? ???
-
I did.
-
Requesting for Tamez to get a little mod star if possible, knows his stuff and has a cool attitude.

Thanks.

What's been going on lately to need more moderation? Place seems ok to me.
-
--;
Don't want to dizz anybody, but he's better than most of us and answers correctly, that's why (check his last posts). Quantity != quality.
Could use the help. Still, cat will hang in there. *goes to help*
-
if mods are barely logging on, they should be replaced and new mods be used on their place ( if the old ones return at a moment that help is needed, no problem in re adding them, but no point in keeping them as mods if they aint around )
-
I've had problems with my laptop's power cable, hence me not being on so often. If/when I do get my *4th* one, I'll be on here more often.
But as of now I can hardly do much because "so many sites, so little time".
-
I wouldn't mind being a moderator; I know for sure that I can keep people in line while still being friendly, plus I know the rules for this area and can be on almost every day. While I know that it's unlikely that I'll become a moderator, I'm at least happy that I use good grammar.
-
i will like to help out. ive been doing nothing but Helping people in the Request bord. :P and posting some news.
-
Hey there, just checking in. Havn't heard anything about this place for quite a while, which I guess is good news.
Everything working out? Anyone you (current mods) want in or out as mod? Anything else we can do?
-
Frankly, I check in these section every 2 weeks more less.
But it seems as if these place is just fine as it is.
I've heard two cases on which the users "can't make a request thread" but I doubt them, since they seem veeeery isolated cases.
I want my green star to show in all the forum, not just the Requests section :P
-
so, the horrible hell never came to be ?
-
Thanks to the brave heroes.
-
Well, I'm going to try to kinda mod this forum... since I am a mod. I've gotten back into playing mugen and I thought that I might as well come back here.
-
Fear not friends, Honkey has returned! It's good to be back. I'll be sure to poke in every now and again.
-
Honkey, you're back!? And your front! YOU'RE BOTH HERE!!!
-
Hey guys, I just have one question (or three depending on how you look at it).
What's the policy on requesting soundtracks? Is there one? Is it allowed?
-
Hey guys, I just have one question (or three depending on how you look at it).
What's the policy on requesting soundtracks? Is there one? Is it allowed?
Well, if memory serves, requesting copyrighted material is a no-no. But, that's been quite a while ago. We may have to get an answer from an admin on this one.
-
Well, here's what the result of speaking with Titiln about it was:
<OrochiGill>: http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=64434.msg915340#msg915340 Titiln, your input?
<Titiln>: that's a gray area
<Titiln>: haven't people released entire game adxs
<OrochiGill>: Not that I can recall offhand.
<OrochiGill>: I asked since I was thinking of requesting a couple arrange albums that were on Galbadia, which is all screwy right now and not working.
<OrochiGill>: but I wanted to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong first.
<Titiln>: http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=93841.0 http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=91711.0 http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=90487.0
<OrochiGill>: Well, that answers the question. Would mp3 files fall under the same category (I mean from VG soundtracks, like in case Galbadia goes down, or the soundtrack doesn't exist on the internet)
<Titiln>: i guess
<Titiln>: both are audio files either way
<OrochiGill>: Well, alright.
<OrochiGill>: Thanks for the clarification.
-
Well, here's what the result of speaking with Titiln about it was:
Wall of text omitted to prevent redundancy.
Well, in that case, request to your heart's content. Until fellow mods or admins object, it's fine with me as long as it's video game music.
-
If required, Bluewolfmage (http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;user=Bluewolfmage) has offered to help moderating here again.
What do you say?
-
No.
He was kicked off for incompetence, and has a lot of bias (including some dark stuff I will not get into here).
-

Um, actually I'm pretty sure to always have been dedicated and responsible in that section as my posts show. My demotion had to do more with stuff that happened at the spam section of other forum, was not related to anything that happened here at all.
I've never done something wrong here during the years I've been helping and if I did, someone will have to point out what was. In fact I've even helped you more than once despite the way you treat me and I also help on moding some other request areas.
Maybe people won't post in my favour, but: http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=95761.msg980802#msg980802
That's everywhere.
Thanks for the chance if I get it. Oh and about too much mods there, there were 4 before and worked good too, I can just make my name shorter if space is an issue I guess :P
-
No, it's because you blatantly disregard questions from certain people in this section because you don't like them. That is very unmodlike.
[size=01pt]Need I bring up the immense number of times you've been cited for power abuse?[/size]
-
also gonna add why you putted in your sig that picture of assassin just after so many people asked for him and you are not responding to his status neiter very unmodlike

Well, people do ask too many questions and I do respond all I can daily. If you refer on how I don't respond to you sometimes, answer should be obvious. In the past I've helped you tons of times, sometimes it costed me a couple of hours to find you a stage.
Yet you decide to cause me trouble. So yeah, I kinda just move to the next person asking for help, you're not like incentivating anyone to be friendly with you dude. I do still help you though, and the board has proof.
As for "power abuses" they were just some mutings here and there and they were asking for it. As said, it's not something that ever happened here while I moded.
also gonna add why you putted in your sig that picture of assassin just after so many people asked for him and you are not responding to his status neiter very unmodlike
Well, to be honest a friend offered a video for him for the underground area and he has not brought it yet, I was waiting for it. It's kinda like patch and needs a lazy post that I never made.
But I was just gonna post the location at this evening and answer, hopefully I manage. And it's not like the first time I place strange stuff in my sig, dunno how much of a crime is. In the end I always answer.
Edit: Typo fix.
-

Like I said
and has a lot of bias (including some dark stuff I will not get into here).
-
You're not like incentivating anyone to be friendly with you dude. Tough I do still help you though, and the board has proof.
Plus, that doesn't happen with anybody else but you. lol.
If someone doesn't like you, you gotta face you ask for it.

How many times must I quote this
and explain this then if you're not biased: http://i937.photobucket.com/albums/ad220/cloudstrifex22/OriginallyPostedbyCloudstrife7.png
-
--; So what you're saying is that because you've been rude towards me and I don't really feel like helping you all the time anymore due to it, that's wrong? You could try to help yourself anwyay dude. You can't blame me for the way you act and what you get later.
and explain this then if you're not biased: http://i937.photobucket.com/albums/ad220/cloudstrifex22/OriginallyPostedbyCloudstrife7.png
Explain me what would it have to do with moderating a request area? That was just a photobucket prank, you don't need to take it so seriously.
-
You've been around for longer than me, and I have to tell you what's right for a mod to do? For shame
Just because you don't like a person doesn't mean you ignore them. That's called not doing your job. You've shown tat you can't do your job when not a mod, what's there to make people think you can with modpowers?
That was just a photobucket prank, you don't need to take it so seriously.
...it's an attack at another forum, and community. Last time I checked, mods don't do that.

As said multiple times, I don't ignore you all the time. I just moved you to the bottom of the help list and you were asking for it for sure. Since there's a LOAD of people to help anyway, if you're asking for priority over the rest maybe you should be a better person at least. It doesn't make me a biased monster, it makes me human.
In comparison, I should help way more. And you're generalizing as if I do that with everybody.

That's funny, because the last time I checked you were mod at other forums and you don't have a prob on attacking IMT and everybody that you can daily.
Plus, I used to like them anyway, they started with me one day for nothing and the place is full of mods anyway.
-
I mod one forum and admin another. At neither do I attack any other forum.

How many fucking times do I need to quote myself saying you're biased? You're showing tons of examples.

Cool Stories bros
and actually please why you stopped to be Staff in MI Wolfmage :wiseguy:?
-

Um, biased != disliking a single person that asks for it in public, in fact I don't have probs with you, you seem to have them with me because everytime someone says something about me you pop and bite.
Sometimes I don't even mind
http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=63986.msg955327#msg955327
Nobody else seems to have probs with me around here.

lol. Maybe you don't do there but you sure do here, and still you're questioning me too for stuff that happened elsewhere.
But this is not about you anyway.
-
Never said it was. However, you're showing a ton of bias in this little debate, and bias =/= modship.
Cool Stories bros
I know right?

Just noticed this one. Well, my account suffered an attack and it had to be demoted for a bit. Once we were sure it was in control I got it back.
And again, it's nothing related to here where all has been kinda nice.
-
ok now I can leave :P
Cool Stories bros

:yeses:
-
It's just request moderator, it's not like he's going to ban someone. If he deletes your request thread through bias, MFG has active administrators anyway, so it's not really likely to happen. Unless, conspiracy?! o_O
On the other hand, I've never seen someone try so hard to be a moderator of the Request Section, this was even discussed when Titiln demoted Wolfmage through bias. LMAO!!!!!
-
This arguement tells me I should up my moderator game up as well, although I didn't know Wolfmage had gotten into trouble beforehand.
-
I guess I have to officially say that I have no internet at home, and it's been that way for a couple weeks, so my internet time is shot. And no way in hell am I going to mod this forum from my cell phone.
-
Pussy >:(.
-
I am not a pussy. I AM A LION!
-
I think I should be king of the mods of these section >:(
-
OK.
ALL HAIL ME, ABSOLUTE EMPEREOR OF THE REQUEST SECTION AHAHA.
-
BUMP
In my honest opinion, the mods of the request section should be changed. Considering that I barely see any of them helping out anyone in the request section, that fills up with questions almost daily.
Mods I would recommend are:
http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;u=28336
http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;u=30960
http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;u=42377
http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;u=30576
Just a handful of people I think would do a pretty good job. :P
-
Actually, GLB, I do not want to moderate this section. Not really a fan of it.
-
hey yo i added a new moderator http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?action=profile;u=53838 enjoy
-
Do not murder newbies for making several requests threads.
-
I won't.
[size=5pt]Of course, this was assuming they read the rules first...[/size]
-
Hey guys. Gonna try my best, thanks for the opportunity. :sugoi:
-
Please choose a moderator that will not reject the needs of the people when a simple question could have been answered easier and less than 3 years ago over the complex response of just a month and with hope i believe this will improve the betterment of the MUGEN GUILD SOCIETY -__-...
-
Moderators of the request section aren't chosen on the basis of having every single information regarding every single piece of content that was released for Mugen. You should read the post that my fellow moderator left in the other thread.
Happy browsing.

Is it wrong to request a mod position here?
-
Why would you want to?
-
Mostly to gauge my mod skills. Sort of a test run. I figure that starting small with requests would help me learn better what is and isn't good modding.
-

Probably?
Mod positions should not be given to those actively seeking them, IMO.
-

Actively seeking? What do you mean by that?

people who deserve it and not get confused all the time for one and NOT asking for it. Pretty much if you ask for it you won't get it.
-

Actively seeking? What do you mean by that?
How long were you in MFG? A mod usually gets selected for one with 2-4 years of activity, not by requesting so selfish as a "test run".
-
Anyone that has half a brain and actually wants to mod the request board should get it.

A quick look at when I registered should clear that up. I think I'll withdraw now.

Always seen it done the other way around. Except for the request board.
Otherwise you might as well give out mod positions to the people that report the most problems.
Actively seeking? What do you mean by that?
You got confused over the term "actively seeking"?

Not really that, I just thought that asking about mod positions might count as actively seeking. How he used the term confused me.

Oh you mean like Orochi Gill?
On a side note, if I may, C.A.N., you aren't ready to be a mod. For starters, you need a firm comprehension of how the English language works. Study the implications of using a metaphor over a simile, become adept at proper sentence structure, and learn how to tell whether people are using euphemisms or sarcasm.
Aside from that, I remember being a mod on Randomselect YEARS ago, and on day one, I accidentally banned a guy I thought was trolling. He wasn't, I had to unban him, and apologize for that, tell him I was new at it, blahblahblah. In the end, moderation was less "I'm a god in this board" and was more "Welp, better move some topics." (Sidenote: I also had to run every decision by Kung_Fu_Man at the time, and while you should be thankful you don't have to deal with THAT guy on this board, it's still not a fun job)
The job is less being a politician and more being a janitor.
If I still haven't convinced you against it, here's one more argument: you have to avoid the urge to ban the shit out of drewski and Pikachu guy.

It's more I tend to misinterpret things on text. Either I'm too serious or I joke too much. I don't see how I'm using improper sentence structure. If I am using improper sentence structure, please give me a few specific examples or tell me as you see it happen. I've got to improve somehow.

Yeah, I heard Jman say something along those lines before.

Yeah, everybody makes mistakes. I'll admit I was kind of preoccupied when I typed that out.

I was never a Guild mod, although I had access to the "Creator Boards" when they used to exist, and posted in that board's "Democracy thread" to have a vote over whether someone should be promoted to see the private boards, along with everyone else who made 100% self-coded stuff for the engine and had access.
BTW qualifications to be in that board required you to make a character (making a stage or a screenpack didn't count), be in the community for a super-long time, or be a friend of multiple people in the board and have them nominate you (me).

cacan might be good enough like cybaster to provide feedback but he seems as clueless as pikachu guy in every single discussion he participates in

Doesn't CAN want to mod request boards though? He should be given a chance. It's just the request section anyways, it's more help from someone willing to take on the job. If he doesn't do it well just remove the spot.
-
I messed up. Should've been "Mod positions should not be given to those actively seeking them, IMO."
I mean, I never wanted this job, and I still don't want it. It sucks!

Oh right, star. Thought the names being removed. Guess I misread the topic.

There's still people who are mods just for this board. Koldskool and GOH, for example.

That makes more sense and is more in line with my experience. Wasn't gonna say anything 'cause I didn't want to contradict you, but... yeah, generally people who seek out modship are the ones least suited for the job.
-
If you´re asking to be a mod, wouldn´t be a good idea to give you mod powers because... is unpolite and won´t end well. Why would u want to be a mod anyways?? THE POWER??

I'd like to renew my request for a position modding in the request area. I've been noticing a few people with multiple topics and whatnot and wondering why they haven't been merged or whatever.

Please don't cause another debate please don't cause another debate.

why do you keep pushing for it, like that? they already told you it doesn't work in one's favor when someone asks!
also, noticing some multiple topics to merge doesn't mean you are particularly more qualified for the task at all lol
-
I still say that since it's just the request board it wouldn't hurt to let him help here.

the request section needs help now and then, who is active right now over there? if there arent many people active it wont hurt to make someone a local mod of it.

GameGuy's been inactive.
Koldskool hasn't been too active in requests either.

cant hurt then.

i don't know, last time i've seen a big duscussion about, it started with you asking...
now this thread pops up again with you asking for a position again: i do not have anything against you by the way, it's just that you really want that position for what it seems to be good reasons that i'm not seeing, sorry :( (my humble opinion)
