Watch me:

That thread wasn't spam.

It contained opinions and an opportunity for some debate. It was also slightly entertaining in nature. Ergo, not spam.

Stop getting all emo about it, it's just some spam, it won't kill anyone... as long as it's in moderation it's ok , moderators are called moderators for a reason they moderate

Emotional as in awaking the desire to inform moderators about that everyone don't like that they are spamming?

As long as it's in moderation it's ok , moderators are called moderators for a reason they moderate.

Heh, first, I don't think you read the first post, second, spam is not allowed whether a moderator is spamming or a new user is.

Moderators are the model of how to act on the BBS, and if they're spamming yet banning spammers. What should we amend after?
Because of the ambiguity that they create, I will amend by the rules instead. And acording to the rules, spam is prohibited.

That's why Ozcar shouldn't be a mod.

Well I ain't saying that any moderator shouldn't be a moderator, they should know that there are all those people who ain't responding to spam threads, if they was made by a moderator or a new user.

There is people who don't want to participate in spam at all because it's against the rules whether we'll get banned or not.

So I'm as one of those people making my voice heard through telling that I would like them to stop, and other people like me does it aswell.

Andersson, I look at your profile, and all I can think of is that you're a stat whore, and then I look at what you say here and I add-in the fact that you deem yourself "leader" of a "club", and I factor in that:

1-you care too much about this BBS
2-you are power-hungry

my verdict: shhhhhhhhhh

[Sheck]

Mods make spam topics all the time, or they don't lock spam topics made by veteran users. It's bullshit.

[cnjefcnbjvc]

Andersson, you have less posts than i do. And nobody respects me.

You cant just waltz into the bbs and tell all the mods how to do their jobs. You're never here. How would you know anything?

True. I mean, look at my profile, then compare with his.

Heh, I am one of the leaders of the "Swedish People Club".

Frostbreath handles all the memberlist updates and the list with the top ranked Swedish members.

DonDoli search after other Swedish members to send e-mails to, informing that there is a "Swedish People Club".

I am keeping everything in order and after the rules.

I don't just imagine myself as a leader in the club, we are three leaders of the "Swedish People Club". I am one of them.

1-you care too much about this BBS

If that's against the rules, I beg your pardon. So should liljim, Tom and Wade too in that case as they're working with this site.

And by the way, don't forget that I care about the whole site.

2-you are power-hungry

I'm a power hungry stats whore? XD

God, you couldn't come up with a better respons could you?

I haven't made this thread to piss people off, I said that in the first post, why you are trying to be mean instead of simply say that I'm right, or that I'm wrong is beyond me.

You won't gain anything through just starting to talk about something totally unrelated. I didn't say that you must do this or must do that, but you could atleast consider to be a moderator protecting the intrests of the sofisticated users aswell.

However, I'll answer why I got stats in my profile.

If I remember things right, I saw a similar statistic in someone else's profile (mrpopenfresh I think).
The reason to why I have my stats in the message in my profile is that I'll have something to update each day and something to look forward to, to see if I've passed someone or not during one day.
The reason to why I think knowing that is intresting is that when I joined for alittle more than a year ago, I was far behind everyone else. Most of the regulars had an (At the time) incredible high number of blams and saves and now I'm starting to pass them when it comes to stats.

I made my first posts on the BBS in the "Clubs & Crews" section because I was making an investigating movie about the eventual portal flaws, and I needed opinions from regulars.

I found "The BLAMming Club: Enemies of CRAP" there MI4_REAL_2001 was a member. I did pass him when it comes to blam/save stats for some time ago, which I thought was pretty amazing as he was such a "big shot" compared to me when I joined Newgrounds.

Let me put it this way, when I made 4´000 of the blam and save points before Easter, before I got an own computer.
My post count ain't high, but I've probably been lurking the forums more than alot of people.

I b/s while I'm lurking, so each b/s point I've made since then is a proof on how much I've been here.

I don't care about the stats to be sincere. What are they really? A couple of numbers.

If I was a stat whore, I would be posting in the "Level Up Lounge" regulary, wouldn't I?

I've never posted there. And I left the "Reviewer's Club" because people started to care too much about respons rate and stats.

I was power hungry a year ago, I wanted to do good. Now, I don't really care which way I'm making this site better through.
You can make a difference as a ordinary member aswell.

Since when did respect come with points?

You're never here. How would you know anything?

Hahaha, I'm sorry but I will have to laugh. I'm browsing this forum (And all the other forum sections aswell) more than possibly anyone else can do, I've been here for 14 hours just today.

Damn I need to do something else. But I'm ill so I got an excuse. =/

3 types of users, ehh? You must'nt forget, moderators aren't merely robotic pawns of the admins to filter out trashy content. Mind you, they want the BBS to flourish, so they each lock, delete, and post in the way they deem suitable, ergo, some may embrace certain ideals and guidelines more so than the others. All of the 'examples' you've provided us with, are, evidently, far from spam caliber. Such humorous threads shouldn't be taken to heart so harshly. Maybe it would suit you to permanently reside in a board of stern faces.

[Nomader]

Meh. Let the mods have their hoe-down now and then. Who cares? If I were a mod, I know that I wouldn't want all day, every day to go around the BBS banning people and locking threads... would you find that fun? It would become a sequence I bet after a few weeks...

I have a feeling that nobody really cares - with all the spam topics (have you ever looked at the normal topics in General?) that are already here, it's hard to imagine how much worse the mods could do. Heck, if you want the mods gone, imagine the chaos that would appear on this site.

That is all.

This is something I stucked on my mind.

Does it seem like I want the moderators to be gone? As I know some of them and I know what they are exposed for each day, I have sympathy for them and informed them about that there is a crowd of members who may not tell it to them when they see it but actually think that they are slipping and wants them back on the track.

It's not to put more pressure on them, but sometimes you need to be reminded.

For the rest of the statements you and the poster before you made, check previous responds.

That's the funniest thing I've read all day.
