OK..I now have exotisch23 on ignore. She was warned by a mod and still insists on pushing her "nobody needs drugs to deal with anxiety or depression" crap.

I'm fucking tired of it. Ignore

Hey I thought of a great way to deal with peoples unwanted opinions! Go live alone on an island!

Never wanted this to get ugly.. but since you jumped down my throat for making a simple suggestion..

Being sort of curious (and overly logical), I just wondered if a mod could tell us:

(a) What percentage of active posters are on ignore: 0.1%, 1%, 10%? Is this function widely used or not?

(b) How many people get banned over a year? 10?, 100?, 1000? To whit, how many people generate enough drama and/or obnoxiousness to actually get booted off the site?

Just interested in the numbers, nothing beyond that.

A mod could not tell you that.


(b) How many people get banned over a year? 10?, 100?, 1000? To whit, how many people generate enough drama and/or obnoxiousness to actually get booted off the site?
A mod could tell you that, by opening up all the pointing messages that occurred in the past year, culling out the ones that resulted in bans, and counting them one by one, but I doubt that anyone will feel impelled to do that.

I've been tempted to put one person on ignore. But, no one here bothers me that much.

OK - thanks for indulging my curiosity anyway.

i doubt it. you've been here a month. the chances of that happening arent good. plus, there is a good chance we arent all talking about the same person because cally threw me off bigtime.

Come on Stella, tell me which mod it is (in PM of course)

Wait wait wait...I wasn't mod hating in public! Don't put me on the blacklist. I'm a firm believer in trying to hide my dislike for members/at least keep it to private messaging, mod or not. But if you'd like to do a little gossiping, catch me in PM's. }:D

yeah but you didnt answer my last oneeeee. :(

i dont think theres anything wrong with disliking a mod, though. who cares? you can't like everyone and just because theyre a moderator doesnt mean everyone is going to like them. being popular doesnt make you a good mod any more than being unpopular makes you a bad one. i think how well you do your job and how much people like you are two separate things.

stellaforstars
01-01-2008, 06:19 PM
^^Just answered you, in fact!

I have no issues with disliking people, trust me! There are plenty that drive me batty. I just figure it's best not to start shit on the public boards if I can help it. Not for their sakes, but for mine. I'd rather not be banned from my addiction!

omfg y'all. Bitches much?

It's one thing to talk about having several of the thousands of active members on ignore. It's another to reduce it to the number of mods (what are there, 12?) and start gossiping about it. I'm sure none of the mods give a flying fuck what you guys think, but why even go there? Juts to like, randomly make a few people (probably not even the one you're targeting) feel bad?

Juts to like, randomly make a few people (probably not even the one you're targeting) feel bad?seriously... saying you have a banned member or some troll on ignore is NOT the same as mod-bashing, and defies the original spirit of the thread:
LMAO thank god no one took this thread serious. I wanted it to turn silly and fun :biggrin:
And no I was not being sarcastic lol, I really did want it to be silly.

playing with taboos is only fun until Mommy and Daddy come and catch their kids being bad. it's both obvious and inevitable that not everyone will like all of the mods. it doesn't suddenly make it OK to start a public witch-hunt of a thread that tangents into secret pm's and such. leave it alone and be grateful you're ON sw. Moderating is ridiculously minimal here... i don't think it's worth making the grumbling public. Keep it in perspective, guys.

and just remember that us mods are all volunteers, keeping this site running smoothly for y'all out of our own time. that certainly doesn't mean you have to like us all, but making it blatantly obvious that you're having a little PM bitchfest about one or more of us isn't really cool.

Tara-SW im curious about that pic you have for your avatar. It looks like a copyright imagine from Bobbis pole dancing studio in sydney/perth Australia????

oh wow. I didn't know it was a copyrighted pic. I got it off google and there was no watermark or anything. I just thought it was a pretty stripper themed pic. Thanks for letting me know I will remove it right now!

Tell me about it. This thread is giving me serious e-anxiety about being a n00b here. I would hope that if I'm pissing someone off, I'd get to know and have a chance to stop, but it doesn't sound like that's happening here much.

I don't have anyone on my ignore list.

^^^You know what? You shouldnt worry about it. If you are really pissing someone off and youre new here people on this board are fairly quick to point out your mistakes or ignore you. Newbies in this catorgary generally fall into 2 groups, trolls or genuinely nice people who just make a few mistakes when first posting here, nothing major if thats the case, we are a forgiving bunch over all who for the most part get along (-:
I also think it doesnt matter if you piss people off from time to time - you cant please everyone always and if not everyone likes everyone it really doesnt matter, thats how life is! Its not worth worrying about, if we can look at ourselves and like who we are and do our best to treat others as we like to be treated then that IMO is good enough.

Why use this to bitch about the mods? That's what Site issues is for. :D

I don't have anyone on Iggy. I don't care enough to worry about what some retard has to say. I can ignore him/her (usually on this site, unfortunately, it's a fucking HIM god-damnit) easier without fucking up my understanding of threads dumbfuck posts in.

And i like Darcy-of-the-silken-thighs! Can't think of any mods that bother me off hand. Jay and FBR used to bother me, but they were eggshelling things. That was a while ago, all's well now they figured out their place.

Why does everyone wanna bitch about the mods, anyway? Let's kick all the mods down to regular members and give it a WEEK without them. See how big the "GIVE US THE MODS BACK" thread, in Site Issues, gets.

FBR
01-09-2008, 10:18 PM
When I was elected mod back in the day the one thing I worried about was "Damn. I wonder if Mad will approve of me?" It was a huge issue for me. I've worked hard to get my act together. I even took a couple of classes. I'm glad to see that I finally passed ;)

You're cute. BAck then you and Jay eggshelled like crazy. Tiptoing aroung these girls like tomorrow there won't be no girls. Then you guys figured out that you weren't some whipping boy flunky and were, *GASP* actual mods! Once you started behaving like mods i quit being annoyed.

This was like forever ago, but it was the last time a Mod bothered me. Well, aside from RoseDelight. She was probably a guy, but jesus jumpin christ id'a fucked the living holy *insert-word-that-does-not-yet-exist-here* outta that pic she had claiming to be her.

At any rate, my point is this: What's wrong with the fucking mods? They should all take a week off at once. Wanna hear screamin' sweethearts?

FBR
01-09-2008, 11:08 PM
LOL Mad I grant you it has been a learning experience. And I'm sure I have fucked up a time or two. But just so you know, while I appreciate what I guess is your approval now, I don't need validation. I think I do an OK job. But hell yeah on the mod vacation. A great idea which would be a hoot to see those who bitch about moderation the most screaming for protection in the absence of same :)

Cut it out! I only mean MY experience with the mods. If people are ranting about Mods on ignore in this thread. FUCK i'd bank on the idea my name has come up for banning a time or two, i'd suspect that the mods have been VERY tolerant of me. People wanna moan? I got NO reason to moan no more. For a time, Bridgette was right, moderation was a little heavy handed. That shit is over. You guys figured it out now.

Why we are having this debate in a "iggy" thread is beyond me, but me, myself, and I (All three of us) would thank the mods and state firmly: I don't got none of you fuckin' bitches on ignore. :D

I sorta do wish Venus was still a mod, though. My only gripe. She was like tin starred dodge city wild woman. She's like "Motherfucker, raise your voice. Dare ya. Now sit the fuck down and shut up." *twirls her guns* I always dug that about her. But, then, i'd have gone loopier than i already am had someone been coked up enough to make me a moderator to SW. I'd have lost it. I dunno how half these people can stand it.

Bottom line: You ignore a moderator, you are retarded. And i consider this to be a very well moderated board. I mean stripperweb is about as tame as nunneryweb! Want proof? Go into chat and type the word "Shit" then ask everyone else what word they saw?

Case rested. Don't moan about the mods, there's a lotta shit you don't have to deal with because of them.

I used to moderate a board called "Atheist Vs. God," and we got some loopies, too. I know what it's like. I wouldn't do it again without a weekly check.

I don't freak about it; I mean, I'm still posting, right? :) This isn't my first message board, and there are other member websites I use where my public persona is that of an inflammatory asshole. I just happen to care if I'm liked here, or at least easily tolerated.

Sure enough, though i do like that misslizzy avatar, and that siggy is not to shabby either.

Provided she's not ignoring me after all those pics i sent her..............

She's blackmailing me, people. :(

If you see me in a tutu dancing across the super bowl IT'S NOT MY FAULT!!!!!!!!1

Poo on misslizzy! :(

No one on my ignore, either. It's like being in an actual stripclub. Don't blindly believe anything here, including the words coming out of your own self, and if you're not having fun, move on. There's other places to go, other things to do.

Who woulda think a damn BBS can rile me up so much?!?
