Title: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 10:31:00 PM I would like to hear from Skeba why she locked my thread about "I hate it when..."
It was no more stupid or irrelevant than any other topic in the Jungle, and in fact could have been quite insightful if given a chance. I guess I am privileged to be one of the few to be locked in the Jungle. For that, I am eternally grateful (sarcasm). Instead of transparency, we have arbitrary and groundless actions by certain moderators. I think the rules about locking a thread for the Jungle need to be defined and made clear. As it is, we have mini-tyrants who act like God when in fact the point is to have some fun. To those people, I say: Grow up and be tolerant. I suppose this thread too will be either locked or deleted. It seems to happen a lot, which makes this entire site all the less fun to visit. Anyone share my opinion?

Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 10:34:08 PM huh? Huh what? It's in English. Follow the train of thought. Not too hard.

I agree this thread should be about fun, but with some kind of limit. I just suppose the moderator's opinion of a limit is different to yours. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Butch Français on March 10, 2006, 10:39:37 PM that's it, moderators should have the same opinion of a limit as whoever else!
mods read this, cos this is how it's gonna have to be from now on! Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 10:40:05 PM huh, is Skeba a she? ;D Oh. Well, whatever, my point still stands. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Butch Français on March 10, 2006, 10:42:08 PM huh, is Skeba a she? ;D Oh. Well, whatever, my point still stands. yes it seems like it actually. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 10:45:42 PM huh, is Skeba a she? ;D Oh. Well, whatever, my point still stands. yes it seems like it actually. Ok, time to lock the thread! mods, you listening? Where is skeba when you need him/her? :rofl: Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Evolution on March 10, 2006, 10:47:39 PM Where is skeba when you need him/her? :rofl: Pissed :hihi: Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: avesia on March 10, 2006, 10:47:55 PM huh, is Skeba a she? ;D Oh.

I'm replacing Skeba today... :hihi: he/she :hihi: needed a day off :rofl: Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Butch Français on March 10, 2006, 10:54:24 PM thanks m'am *bows*
Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Genesis on March 10, 2006, 11:20:24 PM Wrong section, Krispy. Maybe that's why your threads get locked... ;)
Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 11:23:10 PM Skeba's a guy isn't...it?? :D I agree this thread should be about fun, but with some kind of limit. I just suppose the moderator's opinion of a limit is different to yours. And how is a thread ?about "I hate it when.." offensive ?or beyond limits? ?A person could talk about anything that affects ?their life. Look at the various threads: masturbation, porn, flirting, movies, the list is endless. And I start a harmless thread ?about what grips you in life, and it gets locked? I mean, really, does that make sense? So I asked for a clarification and a statment ?of the criteria used to decide ?whether to lock ?a thread in the Jungle. Seems perfectly reasonable to me, so as not to offend the Gods or go beyond any kind ?of limits (which apparently are only in the minds of certain mods). Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 11:25:35 PM Wrong section, Krispy. Maybe that's why your threads get locked...? ;) then why was it not moved instead of locked? Actually, the thread existed for a while, and then was arbitrarily locked. The observant person would realize that a pattern of behavior emerges from certain mods, and it is not healthy or conducive to running a website that is to be a forum for discussion and give and take. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Sukie on March 10, 2006, 11:28:52 PM This thread should be in the administrative section. :yes:
Administrative, Feedback & Help Announcements, your questions about the board, suggestions etc. Got a problem with the board? Post here. See? Each section gives you a description of the kinds of topics found there. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Genesis on March 10, 2006, 11:29:13 PM then why was it not moved instead of locked? Actually, the thread existed for a while, and then was arbitrarily locked.

Sorry, I was referring to this thread. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Krispy Kreme on March 10, 2006, 11:42:06 PM This thread should be in the administrative section.? ?:yes: Administrative, Feedback & Help Announcements, your questions about the board, suggestions etc. Got a problem with the board? Post here. See?? Each section gives you a description of the kinds of topics found there.? Funny. But in my opinion this thread belongs in the Jungle because the problem orginated in the Jungle. And see, the thread was directed at the moderator of this section. Kind of ironic isn't it how that relevance thing works. So we disagree. And by the way, your sarcasm is noted, but not really appreciated. I am not stupid. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Sukie on March 10, 2006, 11:50:02 PM Well, we all know what "they" say about opinions, right? :hihi: I'm just kidding. I'm having an off night. Been bitchy feeling all day. :-\
The problem may have originated in the jungle, but Jarmo will have a better chance of seeing it in the Admin. section. Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Kujo on March 10, 2006, 11:55:17 PM Funny. But in my opinion this? thread belongs in the Jungle Funny, but in my opinion this thread belongs in mygnr.com Actually, I have it from a good source that Skeba is actually a witch (http://republika.pl/blog_dx_155120/347799/tr/monty_python_witch.jpg) BURN HIM/HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm just kidding.? I'm having an off night.? Been bitchy feeling all day.? ?:-\ The problem may have originated in the jungle, but Jarmo will have a better chance of seeing it in the Admin. section.? No problem, we all have our days. I understand. And when Jarmo sees it, the world will be right once again (my sarcasm).

Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Mr. Dick Purple on March 11, 2006, 10:54:49 AM I thought he/she is a dude :-\
Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Axls Locomotive on March 11, 2006, 12:20:09 PM skeba is a dude but is waiting on the final operation to make him a girl ;)
Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Skeba on March 11, 2006, 12:45:16 PM i'm pretty sure skeba is a girl ..... Yeah, and I'm an ugly motherfucker as well. And that gender sign can be awfully hard to see and decode... (http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/boardgallery/albums/userpics/normal_Skeba.jpg) As for the problem at hand... http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/board/index.php?topic=27064.0 This is the thread I locked. Yeah.. umm. First of all. We tend to think that descriptive subjects are cool. Like if you wanna talk about my gender, you might wanna name the thread "Skeba's Gender" and not "What I've been wondering is...". It helps. People don't have to go through every thread to see if they're intrested in a topic. Second. Your thread's question was that you can't remember what you've posted when you've been drunk. The answer was given to you by Hillel Slovak: just go look at your last posts in your profile.. What more could you have gotten from it? You could start a "dumbest thing you've posted when drunk" thread, but I really don't see how the original thread could've evolved into something amazing and insightful? If the thread was supposed to be about "what do you really hate", you could've been a lot more descriptive about the idea of the thread. Right now it seemed like you posted a random thought that swung to your head. ps. this was too, posted in the wrong section. The Adminstrative section has the description: "Announcements, your questions about the board, suggestions etc. Got a problem with the board? Post here."

Seems perfectly reasonable to me, so as not to offend the Gods or go beyond any kind of limits (which apparently are only in the minds of certain mods). I agree. There is no line that defines "ok" and "not ok". And.......more times then not I see contradiction on a daily basis.

The Adminstrative section has the description: "Announcements, your questions about the board, suggestions etc. Got a problem with the board? Post here." 1. The picture? looks? like me, they all do. 2. No, the thread was about "I hate it when.." and was an open question to anyone with a creative mind? or something interesting to say. You read it the wrong way. 3. Not in the wrong section since this is the section that caused the problem. After all, I got your attention, so it obviously was in the right place. :hihi: Title: Re: We need rules and transparency for moderators of the Jungle Post by: Kujo on March 12, 2006, 11:06:04 PM Something really needs to be done about this. Forget Apartheid, forget starving/dying people in 3rd world nations, forget about Aids. Bono needs to do a benefit concert to raise the worlds awareness about the injustices that happen on this board.
