Problem with mods

[Corporal]

As said, please use the complaints forum, this thread has solved nothing and has simply caused an arguement which is not need for such a small matter.

Who said im complaining?

Personally I can not see how this is classed as useful feedback, this is the feedback forum and no positive or constructive critizm/feedbeack is coming out of this

Im saying that habbox might want to make sure that if its in the criteria to become a mod that they make sure the mind reading skills bit is reviewed.

Judgement is a key part of moderation, and I can see why there is an issue, it's been raised a few times already. I can see why they removed it for being pointless, but for a teenager forum they really should allow small things like that. Heck, half the posters in the thread wanted to make an oral joke!

I'm not saying that he wasn't trying to be a smart *** but he really just said "I wish I had oral on Friday" would technically could mean that he did want an oral exam on Friday...

but yeah. If things like that are gunna be edited then there's a hell of a lot other things that could be too.. :eusa_whis

If you really want to achieve something, I'd suggest you drop that tone and start speaking like an adult, and moreover a not overly-sarcastic adult. You didn't even say in your first post what your complaint was about, just some sarcy comment about moderators.

Personally, I believe if the post is genuinely funny it has a point, and I usually leave it (as long as its loosely connected to the topic) or edit underneath saying "please stick to the topic" but leave it there. But some mods are stricter than others, he had every right to remove the post as it had nothing to do with what the thread starter was asking.

I don't think the issue is big enough to warrant sarcastic comments and start insulting all moderators though.

Edited by Thaddeus (Forum Moderator): Please do not post pointlessly. And do not reply with a smart comment to this edit as you clearly aren't talking about the test.

Since when was that in the mod guide. That mod edit is "looking" for trouble, i thought your not meant to provoke any fights!?

That's what I was thinking, it's not friendly is it. I guess there's a reasons your not supposed to stray from the edits.

Another problem with mods is that they cant speak 'proper' English.

To be fair I don't see Corporal making any insulting remarks here but agreed
he has not quite explained it clearly. Essentially he is asking if non-standard edits are appropriate especially if they are just 'in case' of a rule break which may or may not happen. Hollywood has given a valid view on this but Elkaa is the one to pm if you wish to take it further as he will be able to give you the present policy on edits .
