This isn't directed towards any moderator on here, I'm just trying to open up a discussion and see what the community thinks about it.

 

I think moderators should operate these forums in a manner in which shows that they're an intellectual themselves and can show a professional aspect of being a moderator, but should also show that they can screw around and have fun. They also shouldn't focus on emotions in which bias is coming into play. Such as if you don't like somebody, you give them a harder punishment than others.

 

A sort of action that recently happened that I do not approve of was when Led Zeppelin was given a warning for mentioning the word "aribot". The rules state you aren't allowed to advertise other websites. I'm fairly sure that just saying the word "aribot" isn't against the rules. If it is, then this forum might as well be operated by the Chinese government. The makers of this site made it so the name of other botting communities is censored for a reason. I honestly don't think they care, and mentioning another botting community isn't advertising it in any way at all.

 

Regarding the recent rule of the MiddleMan not allowed to give the buyer/seller feedback. Who made that rule?

The "trader" is there for a reason. It's a ring of feedbacks. I give everybody feedback, basically because we all participated in a trade, and all of us presented ourselves as trustworthy. I see no reason as to why we aren't allowed to give a feedback for MM'ing.

 

I may edit more into this post later on if I feel the need to or if I discover another 

I support what Occazn has said. Lately their actions aren't really justified. Also with Led getting warning for "advertising a bot" lol kinda like Cortana removed my feedback but wont go remove anyone else's.

1st on Occazn

Support the feedback thing is so stupid and Led got a warning for posting aribot? What the heck is wrong with the mods.

This is stupid.

I support this thread.

I just woke up today, and all I see is a bunch of posts about how I suck and I'm doing my job wrong Sorry

Don't worry just take everything they say as good advice and carry on doing your job

I fully support this

TO THE COMMUNITY, ITS TIME TO TAKE BACK OUR FORUM!

Meh this all started with Cortana giving a warning for advertising a bot apparently. Then I bring into the issue of feedbacks being remove? If thats the case then Occazn/YoloSwagg/Skype/Divica and many others should have plenty of feedback removed........ 

Not sure why you've had to bring the MM'ing feedback situation up in this topic...

 

Anyway,

 

Mentioning another bot is advertising? After hearing about that name, people will go onto google and start researching it. This could be detrimental to OSbot as we rely on people staying with us and paying for VIP in order to keep the bot free, so I can fully see why a warning is needed there. Just because he didnt give a full URL doesn't mean it's not advertising? I can  say RuneScape, and that's advertising their game without giving you a link or a website URL.

 

I believe all the staff team have a decent intellectual capacity and I believe they're running the forums pretty smoothly imo. As a person who seen as the person in charge or the one who has "power" over the users, they'll be continuously scrutinized and slammed for every little mistake they make. I'm talking from experience here, as a football (soccer) referee, I am hated and have my name dragged through shite if I make one slight mistake, and to be honest most people hate me due to the fact I have control over the game, not many people like to be controlled, it's human nature!!

 

Nobody is perfect. Face it, EVERYONE makes mistakes, I do, and so do you. It's got to be hard for the staff running this site, constant questions, thousands of users and then little pests breaking rules, not to mention they're running there lifes, handling school commitments/work, family, etc.

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

what kind of example are you all setting? How do you think this looks to potential VIP/Sponsors when they log on to the site for the first time, you lot all arguing and going against the staff members. Get a hold of yourself, this forum used to be sooo friendly, everyone helped each other and there was no trouble, now you're all looking for it. Stop acting like spoilt pre-teen girls, and move on.

He tried to go around a rule when he said "__bot". He obviously meant the competitor, which, for obvious reasons, shouldn't be mentioned at all around here. He rightfully received a warning.

 

As for your second point a MM should not be allowed to give feedback as they assume no risk in the trade. You'd essentially be receiving two vouches for one trade which gives a false impression regarding your trustworthiness as each feedback would not really be representative of a unique trade.

What happened with the feedback?

You have my support on this.

If anything the mods should crack down more on retarded useless posts and threads. I also think the spam section should be removed cause it's useless and the threads in it are retarded and make our community look like a bunch of suck up 12 year olds.
