    :pompus: Well it has been quiet and one thing leads to another, this just spilt over to I guess, wages. But then if we have no posters at all, it would be considered a Dull Forum. "Damned if you do, Damned if you Dont" EH? :cool:

    So many comparisons to other forums lately? :o o: I have no problems with suggestions/criticism but.......Forum Suggestions & Feedback | Dumaguete Info (It's there for a reason.)

    Yeah....I'm just now catching up on a a lot of unread posts, been kinda busy lately.....moderation might be a bit lacking. But there is one way to quickly get a moderators attention on something a person feels needs to be moderated:

    I occasionally click this button myself just to make sure the d*mn thing still works. :meh:

    I know that most other forum admins and moderators don't care for users posting on threads about how something should be moderated. I've even been in a few forums where warning points are issued to users who regularly make these types of posts. I don't really take much offense to it myself so the only potential action taken will be an unprofessional snide/smart*ss reply.......much like this one. (Or I might delete them without giving any notice or reason.) :wink:

    Again, I have no problem with suggestions or criticism. I just ask that they be put in the proper place.

    (And yes, I realize the off topic posts can be annoying. Perhaps it would be better to just lock threads that start to go off topic.)
    :banghead: ikr!? :rolleyes:

    How about not posting in the correct sub-forum? Moving threads to the correct forums is the most common moderator action taken on the forum. Are these minor infractions worth issuing a warning point or confronting the person which could create a conflict? :meh: To me, no.

    I just visualize "(among other things)" appended to the titles of each thread in the forum. That's my pass.

    :whistling: John! I tend to think that the Moment we see the "Dudes" name on a Post we all know we may be in for a smile or two.
    It's all good and I am sure someone will say if it is Not. :thumbsup: :wink:
