Quit wasting Skuzzys time

[daddog]

Well, maybe it is not time wasted, but it could be better spent then reading the O’Club and some other forums. I really wish HTC would hand over the moderations of the different forums to members of the community. Think of the hours skuzzy could spend on development and or support since he did not have to read the boards.

Bet the CM's would have the new object editor out by now if he did not have to deal with so many forums.

I bet skuzzy likes his job.

And who would you pick to moderate the O club?

Who else is as fair, impartial, understanding, and respected as skuzzy?

Help & training, well ya, you could make any one of us Mod there. But then I can't think when was the last time that forum needed a moderator.

CM stuff, sure, give it to the current head CM, lets make sure he stays busy after all.


Same for CT.

But the big boys, General discussion, and Oclub almost have to be moderated by HTC staff. They are simply too sensitive, and poor decisions would cost too much for it to be any other way.

"And who would you pick to moderate the O club?"

 No one.   I personally think HTC should ditch that forum as most of the O-club denizens use it as a place to simply antagonize each other and anyone who wanders in.    Let an independent player-created webboard, likeChecksix or AGW, pick up that traffic.

 It is certainly not an attraction nor any kind of a positive for AH in the least.

 All imNSHo of course....

 
 Good post Daddog!

  LOL Have you been to CheckSix lately. I`ve read the threads when bored a couple of times in the last 2 or 3 months. Seems to be automatic that anyone entering there to post reverts to a 7th grade level .

  Frankly , that`s a crock.
Haven`t been playing the game that much as of late due to my free time being cut down. I always work in some time to visit the O`club at least a couple of times a day if at all possible.
  Usualy it is what I refer to as Comedy Cental text style. Some of the best entertainment on the net.
  My advice....... If ya can`t take the heat stay outa Texas.

  Skuzz recently stated that he views us participants in the O`club antisocial.
  I never thought Skuzz would take the time to issue a compliment such as that.

I would pick..... ME!

(That was a surprise, wasn't it?)

 A moot point when the AH "ot" itself operates at a grade school level too.

 But you may have missed my point. I only used "Checksix" as an example of a privately provided forum where people could go and talk about anything they wanted to in just about any manner they wished.  A place IMO where the discussion and behavior would not reflect badly on HTC and AH.  With OT eliminated so would also be the time wasted by HTC having to deal with it.

Yall got C6 wrong... it's a place where one can be a fool, relax... and not be bothered by politics. A bit like before we were all grown ups.

Oh, and don't criticise C6... LePaul is going to cry us a river again! I think SW ate all his pills last month.

i disagree.

i have had some great conversations and have developed some great friendships in there.  i think that it is a terrific assest, not only to the community, but to the world at large as discussions that we have there influence us and we carry it outward.

i prefer it more than any other forum and would probably go away if it were to disappear.

besides... there  is really only so much infernal whining that one can do about gameplay and ACM before it grows staler than fossil toast.

i am sure that skuzzy could live without another round of any myriad of topics that pop up in GD on a daily basis too.  

he does a good job and we should all be thankful that he does.  i am.

in summation.

you have your romper room.  we have ours.  all is well.

somewhere in a locked / deleted thread he went OFF saying how he HATES doing this part of his job.... it wasn't that long ago, but i can't find it. probably intardnet heaven

[JB88]

he says he hates it.  but he really loves it.

he'd be a shell of a man without us.

we are like that scene in the movie where the demon is made up of all of the screaming souls.

aghhhhhhahhahhahhahhhhhhhhhhh h!HHhhhhhgnnnnnn!!!!

In addition to not adding anything to the game, and wasting lots of Skuzzy's valuable time, most of the worst offenders in the O'C dont even play the game. Same with the Aircraft and Vehicle threads where 4-5 of the same guys (who again, dont even play the freaking game) cant talk about any topic more than 10 posts before it becomes hijacked and turns into a personal mudslinging fiasco.

[Morpheus]

Bannnnn them all.

[midnight Target]

BS..

99% of the posts in the O-club are inoffensive, and most of the posters play the game. Check-6 is a little more light hearted, and you ned a little thicker skin, but the people are basically good.... OK basically not evil...... well basically safe because they are not in your living room.

[JB73]

for us at work, the o'club is multi-player notepad. actually a MMORPG.

at least we get to play something at work ; )
