Can moderating just stay as it is

"defiantly" @GoldenMerc;

[Chris]

Can't win either way then... don't want generic, don't want misspellings...


He knows that his spag isn't great but it's not his fault - like I said before it doesn't make him a bad moderator.


It's not that bad, just little misspellings (your/you're is the main one that bugs me).

Exactly! He's doing a good job and thats what matters.

I heard that he gave Chris favours in return for grammar lessons. Bless him!

No seriously, I think moderation does need to look more to the context and not to the sentence. that lead's to problems.

That's exactly what I thought. Little bit of coaching when it comes to the PMs and he'll be fab!

LOL wouldn't surprise me and yeah I totally agree, not 2 months ago people were complaining there weren't enough moderators, now there are and they're complaining about them!

You mustn't have noticed the 22 pages of this thread then eh? Clearly there's more than one person discussing moderation. As for the sarcasm I doubt it's needed. Sure there's somewhere you could be crawling up?

i said people were complaining about before (true) now people (person - same person?? idk wasnt there for that debarcle really) are complaining now.

Have the rules been updated to reflect the flaws of the moderation text? It seems HxF moderation needs to remember what context means, a flaw they've had since records began. Go by the intentions of a post rather than what is in a post and go on a whim to try and find a rule break. Moderators need to learn to read into a discussion rather than quickly shoot off when they see a potential rule break which is just mild banter. Splashing the eye-sore red warning signs everywhere is crude and makes a forum page look somewhat revolting - HxF is the only forum I know that gives out mod warnings in posts like leaflets in the street, quite a few do things privately or add warnings which blend into posts (e.g. same colour scheme) rather than stick out like a sore thumb.

If we're starting the big grammar debate, @Chris is guilty of bad sentence structure too, not that it matters

"Nick and GoldenMerc have passed their 2 week trials and are will be staying on as Forum Moderators. Well done!"

Yeah if she/he goes theres a fly in my room f off then.. Personally I wouldn't want to see f off since its soo obvious. I'd class that as avoiding the filter.

Matt changed the rules about a year back to allow all abbreviations that didn't offend/target people to be allowed.
such as fs, fml, fo (in context).

maybe you should double check these rules!?
ps check one of my manyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy yyyyy threads and you'll find it.
