FFG Moderators - Get your finger out and start moderating the X-Wing Boards

By Baaa, in X-Wing

I'm not an angel; and I'm undoubtedly on some members' ignore list. Meh.

But FFG, start actually moderating these boards.

FFGStuart is apparently the X-Wing board moderator; but according to his profile the last time he logged in was the 6th October 2015 at 2.54pm (GMT).

Get a grip.

It's not really about that one mod, it's about everyone else figuring out what they can get away with. And apparently, you can get away with anything.

I'm the only one that I know of...

It works, trust me. I've had my fair share of moderator attention, and they listen.

And I do know how to use a semi-colon. ;)

It does not always need a comma; nor another semi-colon, to either break or complete the sentence.

Can often be confused with the "Oxford comma".

Considering that someone was banned only a couple days ago, I dont think they've been ignoring stuff for months.

They do more moderate. Ffg Evan does a lot of it.

Since when?

Looking at the dross that's on the front page of the boards (and beyond); does FFGEvan even deign to get their ass into gear?

What's the problem? Have you been reporting posts? Just because some posts something you don't like doesn't means the post violated the terms of service agreement.

I've never reported a post; nor have I ever ignored a member.

The problem is; is that these here boards aren't moderated properly.

I'm all in for better moderation of the boards. In fact, any sort of moderation at all!

I know someone that was banned last week in real life. They definitely are around.

Generally they are hands off though. You need to do your part and report posts that are not in good faith, or violate board rules.

Perhaps they should be more "hands on"?

Since forever. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not happening.

Admins can also log-on as invisible, if these are anything like the boards I used to run. It doesn't update the "last log" date if it's always been invisible.

Then my old fat ass must be a helluva lot quicker than what I'm seeing.

Perceptions or opinions aside, do you believe that some of the vitriol that is gracing these boards is acceptable? Me and thee have had our differences; but it's getting a wee bit over the top don't you think?

I think that we on the forums need to be more proactive in moderating as well though:

1. If someone posts something inflammatory or starts spamming posts, as hard as it is we as a forum community should ignore the post and the person responsible for it. If you look at the posts a certain member made that has alot of people upset, the member posted about 3-4 times on each post, the other 100 post are all from other members. By posting instead of ignoring that member it a) takes us away from why we are all really here, to talk x-wing or star wars in general and B) keeps the troll post front and center on the forum boards.

2. If someone posts something to the point where it can't be ignored then report the post. Sure moderators should be watching the forum, but its also on us to make them aware of people abusing the forum. If your house was on fire would you not call the fire department because you think they should be able to see the blaze themselves or that a neighbor will probably call?

3. Let's not let one person bring this forum down, lets get back to talking about x-wing and Star Wars and leave the negativity behind us!
