    To Zincous,

    Are you a Moderator for a role like salsamad or Hodapp?

    In salsamad I mean here to moderate the protect the forums from evil 12 year olds or more into reviewing and posting daily news like Hodapp/arn/Blake?

    Am I entitled to my free speech, or is anywhere you touch a dictatorship, where infractions are plentiful, and editing of posts is constant?

    Zincous is cool. Don't worry about that. So are NotYou and Wastedyuthe. Hodapp is great too. Arn is good. Blake is EPIC, but never posts. That leaves one, and I'll leave you to your own assumptions. Personally, I didn't even know who salsa was when he/she was made a mod, he/she only had around 100 posts, and I'd never seen any posts by them. :shrugs:.

    So.

    Great Mods/Admins

    • arn
    • wastedyuthe
    • NotYou
    • Hodapp
    • Zincous

    EPIC admin

    • blakespot

    Other

    • salsamd

    And of course, my EDNG plug

    brewster I don't mind salsamd.

    He/She adds Pictures and videos to game release threads, corrects titles when you pm him, but I've never seen one of their posts.

    True. Nor have I. But he/she does all of these things without asking too. I've seen salsa edit posts out of nowhere, and all sorts of things.

    I've seen some game release threads, but thats about all. I remember a Wave Blazer or something thread by salsa.

    Congrats Nuggets, that sounds like a definite maybe :)

    In terms of Salsa, I don't see why that's even an issue. He adds stuff to the threads in his own way.

    That's a nice way of saying "Never". If I were an admin, I'd be more blunt.

    So did you ask to be an admin? I think arn just asks people himself, like Big Albie to be editor and Zincous to be a mod.

    salsa is personally my favorite, he keeps things nice and neat, always adds pictures, videos, and descriptions to threads that need it. hes like the mother teresa of touch arcade. hes just out to make the forums better not up his post count. he does the jobs he supposed to do and then some.

    Personally I don't understand the appeal of being a mod. Why are you all so obsessed about mods?

    Me neither. Too much responsibility, and you're on a pedestal and have to follow all the rules. That's a fail. I can't have all serious posts. What fun is that?

    Lol. I find that that would make me a less effective moderator. I don't want to be one anyway. I prefer the way it is. I do wish we had more ranks though.

    Nah. I hate it when human beings act like robots. Good to see mods with a sense of humor.

    Well, if you are asked say no. :rolleyes:
