Ever wonder?
Would they like make trouble?
“Loose” one a ur posts?
Tweak it?
Ignore a request?
Hold back from posting it?
Im not asking bout myself, ocourse. I love u Mods!!
Was just wondering… with all that power u guys have.. U could probly have alotta fun up there in the Mod Controll Tower.. (again, I love u Mods!!)
How could they not like anyone, we’re all anonymous?
Only if you do shtick, like one famous guy, do they get angry and possibly blocked.
then you get picked…….
They are nice people. I had an extremely pleasant (on-line, behind the scene) interaction with one.
Zeeskite- same here! I dont want to say which MOD it was because that would be unfair but he was very nice to deal with! MOD…- you know who you are! thank you for all your hard work
bpt- sounds like you are on the good side now with so few of your posts edited.
” with so few of your posts edited.”
That was before yesterday. Tuesday saw me in the principal’s office more than once.
i had a couple threads rejected today
This is a free country. Anyone who doesn’t like what the mods do is free to start their own competing site.
I find it very annoying that we can be in the middle of a very civil Halachic discussion and the Mods will arbitrarily delete posts and close the thread. For example, this happened regarding purchasing cut fruit.
I think that sometimes a thread is closed because it has been analyzed to death. Sometimes there is only just so much to be said about a topic before it becomes stale. With the “cut fruit” topic, what more could have been said? All sides of the issue appeared to have been dealt with – often a lot more than once. I don’t think that the moderators go out of their way to make anyones life miserable – but they must be very objective and I am sure that there are guidelines that they must follow. OTOH, I have had my posts nixed more than a few times – I guess I must have crossed the YWN line.
I heard rumors about a guy who upset the Mods a few years back. They say he’s sleeping with cement blocks on his feet on the bottom of the Yam Suf.
On another note, I want to commend the Mods for allowing such a random thread with a such controversial title to make its way into CR. Go Mods!
Yeah mods can be a little um…strict but they also are rly funny sometimes 🙂 And w/out the restricting this CR would be totally inappropriate!
i wish they would rate our posts and tell us how much they like us. sometimes i think they think im the biggest pain in the neck and sometimes they are ok with me.
well…i know for a fact that YWEditor dislikes me…
“well…i know for a fact that YWEditor dislikes me… “
bombmaniac: Exactly how do you know this? Did you receive a registered letter stating his opinion of you? Because your posts have been edited or declined a few times means nothing. It has happened to most of us.
bomb – How do you know?
I dont think any of them HATE me per-se but I dont think they like me that much either. I’m here way too often and give them way too much work for them to like me…
adorable: don’t worry, even if the mods don’t link you, I still do.
omg woooo you threw me off with that post. Not sure what to respond. Until I knew you were Joseph, I would have responded one way but now that I know who you really are I dont know what to say….
Well thank you for the compliment. its good to know someone takes note.
ive exchanged quite a few emails with him. the feeling is quite mutual.
bomb – why do you still post here?
i post here because im bored but i no longer post my articles here
bomb- who did you exchange emails with? the mod or joseph?
pac- why should he leave>?
adorable – How did you figure out who Joseph is?
Dont worry I like you.
no adorable it was editor. this was about my mental illness thread and my asking for its deletion…he never complied
deleted
use a word like that again and you will no longer be welcome to post here.
his screen name just fits right in. if he was a mod you would not have such issues….
bomb- why dont you just email mod 80?
what for? mod 80 cant directly contradict a “psak” by the editor…he specifically posted on the moderator forum section whatever thingy telling the mods not to accommodate me…
hes nice and accommodating.
what is with this racism?
Racism? I highly doubt the mods have a clue as to what race you are. They simply censor the comments, which is why I feel safe reading the CR. If you’d like to chat without a filter there’s always Facebook out there.
I honestly dont think the mods start off disliking anyone. its only if you make trouble that they get annoyed.
I’m pretty sure mod80 thinks I’m a moron since I did kind of post a stupid comment in the ‘frustrating’ thread. I guess he has reason to think so since I did post it.
“i post here because im bored”
bombmaniac, if you are so bored, why don’t you find something constructive to do with your time? I don’t know if you are a student on vacation or a working person, but there are many places that would gladly love to have you volunteer – such as old folks homes or senior centres or your own shul, as examples. Or you could take a class – even strictly for interest’s sake such as an advanced computer class or using your digital camera to the best advantage. Do you participate in any sports – this is the best time of year for that.
My mother A’H’ used to have a saying: “People who are bored are often boring, themselves.
i usually post at work…so thats where im bored 😀
and no adorable he is NOT accommodating. not only did he refuse to remove my post but he used an alternate account (achosid) to try and bait me into releasing part two of that series on YW.
achosid has nothing to do with the yw editor, nothing
there was no baiting
that was another poster who likes your articles
happiest i think very highly of you
i dont even recall what post you are talking about
bombmaniac: if you are that bored at work, it is definitely time for you to move on to something more challenging. You are lucky to have a job to hold on to until you find something that is more suitable.
bombmaniac
Just because you’re not paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you.
minyan-im also bored but there is no reason for me to leave my job. if i plan on getting a pefect job then forget about it so therefore im still at my job….
thanks mod- you made my night:) lol.
I have proof that he is…its not a baseless claim.
If the mods don’t like you (anymore)..
..they change (& keep changing) your subtitle.
Welcome back, Zeeskite!
bomb- maybe you caught him on a bad day or I caught him on a good day…. either way I am sorry that you have to go through this.
