| Well, I gotta ask this question; Why the heck are forum moderators so bossy? NOTE : I did not mean this in a bad way though, anyways if a forum mod is seeing this sorry, i just wanted this ask this so badly?!!! |
| Are you like asking for a ban OP? Mods are bossy? I would never say such atrocious things. The Mods on MAL are nothing but angels that have descended from the heavens themselves to grace us poor plebians with their infinite wisdom and great forum rules. |
| They're just following the rules. Also, try to find and 8 page thread Now Imagine if that thread has hate all over it and you need to read each post to clean the whole 8 pages. Wouldn't that be so stressful? |

Wouldn't that be so stressful? Yes that would be very stressful. Comon OP, the Mods are doing gods work here. Why would you question their authority and dedication to the forums? They are literally working in a battle zone, doing the things that none of us will ever have the heart or soul to do. |
| The mods here hand out temp bans like Halloween candy |
| It's kinda their job. I'd imagine if they weren't enforcing rules, they wouldn't be mods. You kinda answered your own question, no? |
 A pair of eyes appear disguised, ask for discord serverI take flight and stay high in paradise, With bad luck, snake eyes, a pair of dice. I'm paralyzed, she speaks twice, a pair of lies, It's parallel, apparent hell of parasites. |
| They are just doing their job and keeping this place running smoothly. Cut them some slack. :) |
 |
| They're not really bossy. They can be ass-kissers a lot (well, some of them lol) but that's understandable. I've never had any issues with the forum mods themselves and I complain about MAL staff a lot >_>. |
 |
| Digging up and deleting ginourmas piles of shitposts and then having to ocasionally interact with users to justify why would make anyone pissy ... dealing with trolls on a daily basis also takes a tole on ur mood e.e So what did ya do OP ? Go one ... spill dem beans |
 |
| It's simple. They're all tsundere. All of them. |
| I doubt they're "bossy". They might be a bit of a peeve sometimes, but that's because they're enforcing the rules. |
| Doing their job and following the rules that are laid out =/= being bossy. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| Actually i think you need to explain why you think they are bossy and such. also ^ |

notsomacho said: The mods here hand out temp bans like Halloween candy they are pretty understanding actually, I was able to get away with alot until I got race baited by another user and my thread devolved into a race war. I have to figure out how to tread the fine line of sharing my beliefs and participating in discussion vs blatant sexism and racism. anyway only women are capable of being bossy :) |
 |
| Well, I can think of a few reasons... |
That moment when you realize that being an IRC mod is even more underwhelming... @AnnoKano :'X |
|
| Because that's their job? I'm pretty sure it's that simple. |
 |
| OK, I'll be brutally honest. |
| Losing an Argument online? Simply post a webpage full of links, and refuse to continue until your opponents have read every last one of them! WORKS EVERY TIME! "I was debating with someone who believed in climate change, when he linked me to a graph showing evidence to that effect. So I sent him a 10k word essay on the origins of Conservatism, and escaped with my dignity intact." "THANK YOU VERBOSE WEBPAGES OF QUESTIONABLE RELEVANCE!" |
| I don't get that. The problem I'm getting is that they just plain ignore me. *cough* @Aversa *cough* |
 |
| I have not ran into any problems with the mods here so far. Then again i'm not posting click bait or troll posting here either |
TheEntropy said: click bait or troll posting here either You're missing out man, it's great fun. |
|
| Assuming you mean MAL mods, then you haven't seen anything yet. I've been on forums where they rule with an iron fist, and straight-out ban you if you so much as say something they don't like. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. |
 |
| They've been given some really ambiguous guidelines. They feel the powah flow within them. They see red. BeBackinaSec said: They're just following the rules. Also, try to find and 8 page thread Now Imagine if that thread has hate all over it and you need to read each post to clean the whole 8 pages. Wouldn't that be so stressful? Can't help but wonder what thread you were talking about :^) |
| They were bullied in their youth so they unleash their incredible pent up anger they've been holding, upon the mal community. It is a way of asserting that they are still able to redeem themselves. |
 |
| Last time I checked if you follow the rules, there's nothing no one can something or other...etc. Never read the rules srsly, meself. Just winged it so far and only one of my topics was were deletion(due to unforeseen, but seen in hindsight circumstances) Mabeh stay aways from outlandish topics that get yeh into boiling water. Yeh don't wanna end up like Lobsterino, don't ye? He was a good Lobster before he adopted revolutionary ideals.. I got a laugh writing this post, and isn't that all that matters? I'm shellfish.. kek. |
| I don't even |
| Because they are probably sick of people sending them angry notes asking why there post/forum was deleted. Also they are literally the equivalent of the police of this site, they want to be taken seriously. |
Let me remind you OP internet rule no.78 |
| Because they feel like they're above the law |

| the mods on MAL and the most harsh of all the forums (besides the drugs forum) I think theyve just got these big power hard ons because lets be real, I dont think that they would have any power in the real world much like all of us here |

| If you've got a problem with a mod, then PM another mod the reasoning why. If you're going to complain about whether or not why your threads were locked/removed, then you talk to the mod that decided said course of action. Making a thread about it isn't the way to go about it. Also, topics 'criticizing' mods, etc. has been done before. And the way you portray this thread, it seems you're aiming at the MAL mods considering your recent locked threads, removals, etc. If you're trying to talk about Forum Moderators of any forum in general, please be more specific when doing so. You weren't very specific, and coming from my standpoint, you're complaining about the staff on this site more so than any other site. Thread Locked |
