These forums desperately lack active moderators. It's no surprise the serious posters don't stay long.
-
So like.. who are you again? Oh yeah, that's right.
Nobody.
I nominate myself for mod. Gayer for the assist.
-
You must be the "tough-guy" forum troll. I'm sure you'd make a great moderator here. But I'm confused are you saying these forums don't need more moderation?
-

Actually, no. Please, play again.

The forums are dead (as far as intelligent discussion and non-repetition are concerned) and have been that way for almost a year now... There isn't a need for moderation. If there is any more moderation, the fuel in which keeps these threads even going will die out.

Welcome to fixed.
The only posters are four types:
A - Blow Hards. They agree simply to fit in. They cannot CONCEIVE of having an independent thought stream.
B - Trolls. They are just here for the lulz. They don't even know what Tom really IS.
C - Robots. Argumenteam Ad Nauseam. They partially give the Blow Hards a reason to assimilate the lie.
D - Mods - Downse Syndromites with a badge. The end.
Welcome to failure. No matter what you discuss, it will ALWAYS dissolve. This is by design.

What the hell are you talking about? The serious posters are the only ones that stay.
-
I think he means the trolls. Henry, are you Narc?
-
That's my theory.
-
I'm serial and I'm here.
-
I'm super serial, and i'm always here.
-
I'm an extremely serious poster
-
I'm serious about my posts too. Just not necessarily about the content of my posts. 8)
-
I'm serious about the content of my pants
No, posts!
-
I'm serious about the content of my pants
No, posts!
Rusty sawmill?

Well I guess the problem has been identified. And, sorry to be the "noob" that has to tell the forum regular this, but you are very wrong.
http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?action=mlist;sort=posts;start=0 (http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?action=mlist;sort=posts;start=0)
Depending on how you have your pagination set-up (default is 30 items), you'll notice 30 members.
5 are serious, or at least do a good job pretending to be. And not all 5 are active.
4 really try hard to convince others they are serious, when all their posts clearly are not.
21 are unarguably either trolls or spammers.
This is because the moderation here is poor. There is no effort to keep posts on topic, or to reduce spam. I will admit, that pornography is removed in a timely manner, so there is still some success. It's a breeding ground for trolls, and the member list is evidence.
-
YAS! I'm on it, and now I'm being ironic and annoying!
-
Am I one of the serious ones?
-

Fix'd.

I grouped you with Muffy.
-

Then stop being the young girl that spams nonsense.

You are free to leave.

Woohoo! 34.
-
Bah...69...
-
3! HAH! I'm the 3rd best member of the forums.
Oh, and Oscar is the gayest.
-
You are free to leave.
A true commitment to excellence here. No wonder I can't find any facts, data, evidence, or actual theory. Have you enjoyed the 57 days, 22 hours and 10 minutes
of wasted life here? Ever thought what you might accomplish if given that time back?
-
Then stop being the young girl that spams nonsense.
Firstly you're probably younger than I am, and secondly, I'm not the one spouting 'FakeEarth' nonsense
Unless of course you are Narcberry, in which case I take it all back and propose to you.
-
don't be so harsh on people :), theres something to learn from everyone, even the people who argue about the Earths shape ;)

Go to bed.

That was almost a month ago, Hara.
-
The thread was bumped, I felt compelled to post.
-
How long ago was it that FES went down?
-
almost a month ago!
-
Wow, time really flew. I'm not sure if that's compliments to FES or not, though. I think I'll just conclude it went by quickly because there was a second FES to post on.
-
Wow Mr. Henry was quite the douchebag. If this site bothered him that goddam much, why did he bother coming her? Dumb ass. He said we were stupid, but he kept coming back? Hmmmm.....
-
I found out the site was back up because someone told attackhoe, "At least you are banned on the other FES"
It took a second to register then I nearly came.
-
lol. I heard because somebody came up with the thread of "the old FES is back up"
-
I had tried to get on the night before and it didn't work.
-
I would have never tried to get back on in a while, I even deleted it from my favs. I never thought it was coming back. Cheers to Daniel.
-
I switched it out with the new one in my speed dial.
-
I'll keep both, and go back and forth.
-

Are you referring to the Firefox3 extension, SpeedDial (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4810)?
-
I'll keep both, and go back and forth.
I'm going to ignore the possibilty for jokes.
I plan on using both until a decision is made. It doesn't make sense for both Daniel and Username to be paying for the websites.

No, Opera.
-
I'm not leaving this site. The new fes may have less spam or something, but this site is The Flat Earth Society. It actually has some thought occasionally. It's faster. It's just better.
-
Keeping up with both sites, isn't that hard, I'm doing it right now. There isn't that much thought in it, but I'm not going to leave this site either.
-
I just think some of the unused accounts should be deleted and there should be more mods.
-
We definately need more mods.
-
We definately need more mods.
Vote for me.
-
I suppose I will, but we need a poll to vote on.
-
Hack the site. Make yourself mod. Daniel doesn't seem like the type to have a hard password. Bruteforce your way in.

Well I don't want to seem like an obnoxious prick by making one myself. Someone else make a poll.

ahem me
-
You guys hid the new FES pretty well I looked for it periodically but never found it.
-
Same url just .net instead.
-
So simple. :o
-
It's usually the simple things that are easily missed.
-

Vote for me.
ahem me
You're a mod on the other, I should be mod here then.
-
1337 |-|^><()|25
No. I don't even know how to run bruteforce on a site. I just was making fun suggestions....
-
I just was making fun suggestions....
That's what she said.
Also, Gayer for president. Where "president" is defined as "global moderator".
-
Space Cowgirl would be a good choice for mod. :)
-
Yeah I should be president of the entire flat earth
-
It should really be "infinite plane moderator"...
-
Peachy, Gayer, and Space Cowgirl should all be Global Mods.
-
Peachy, Gayer, and Space Cowgirl should all be Infinite Plane Mods.
Fix'd.
Also, whatever happened to Raist and Hara?
-
They can mod "general discussion", "angry ranting", and "everything else."
-
Fair enough, I guess.
-
They can mod "general discussion", "angry ranting", and "everything else."
That's the spots I want. Well, everything in the 5 sections I post in, since I don't touch the debate/belief forums at all.
-
I'm a genius.
-
Can I do "Complete Nonsense"? It's more of a thread-moving role than ban/lock/deleting, unless someone posts really nasty porn or summat.
-
They can mod "general discussion", "angry ranting", and "everything else."
I could global mod. That way I could follow the trolls into the other boards.
Me and hara would be the mod team from hell.
Apathy works better when the troll gets his posts deleted and his account banned.
-
I think I'd be ok at it. Can I join your team?
-
no.
-
Damn.
-
Language like that is the reason. Also you still care too much.
-
Damn isn't bad at all. Care about what?
-
My last post, everything. You care.
-
A bit. Not much.
-
I have a signature to help the noobs I talk to. If you're running the blade up and down your arms and seeking the courage to press down, click my sig.
-
Well I'm not, so I'm good.
-
Just let it go.
-
Ok then.
-
It isn't your fault.
-
Thanks.
-
It isn't your fault.
-
It isn't your fault.
-
It's mine... :(
*slice*
-
It isn't your fault, Taters
*Shut up, Oscar, we're doing the thing from Family Guy*
-
Family Guy is not funny.
-
What thing from family guy?
-
It isn't your fault, Taters
You ruined it.
-
It wasn't funny anyway.
-
Not at all.
We should be a mod team Oscar!
-
It wasn't meant to be funny, it was meant to get him to confess to a deep and horrible secret. But now we will never know what that evil cybernetic potato did and to whom.
-
We will if Chrissetti ever gives us MOAR! >:(
-
I have no dark and horrible secrets. None that I remember anyway.
-
You'll be a hard nut to crack, but I'll find your secret.
-
He's a cross-dressing, cybernetic McCain product/self-proclaimed Pope. I think he wears the inside of his mind on his sleeve...
Or whatever is on his robot arms.
-
McCain?
-
Isn't that the company that makes those Tasty Tater things?
-
as a former fat-kid I can safely say I believe you're right.
-
I've never heard of it. I htought you meant the guy who is running for president.
-
Yes, I believe John McCain is the man who invented tasty taters...while he was a P.O.W
-
"The only thing that beats the taste of gook blood is a bite-sized Tater!"
-
That would make me a bit of a cannibal.
-
So that's the secret! Aha!
-
Orphans: It's not murder because no body loves them. Taste the self hate.
-
So that's the secret! Aha!
It would make me a cannibal, if I had eaten them.
-
So that's the secret! Aha!
It did make me a cannibal, because I had eaten them.
QFT.

Exactly. Having two epic trolls as global mods would spell hell for any of the noob pain in the ass trolls.
-
We'd be increddible. *thum life*
-
I liked the part where all the trolls tried to convince each other they should be mods.
Classic.
-
You are more of a troll than the rest of us Narcberry.
-
When everyone is a troll, no one is a troll.
-
They need moderators who can distinguish between trolling, spam and jokes. None of the current lot can. Moderation here is random, bias and sometimes non-existant.
-
You're just mad 'cuz Dogplatter warned you...
-
I've been saying it for years!
-
Engy's threatened to ban me about 100 times when I've just been doing exactly what other people are doing. If someone doesn't like you they forget they're meant to be a mod and they just abuse their powers whilst the millions of retarded spam and troll threads remain unchallenged.
-
It's true.
-

and then the one troll comes in, and pretends he isn't a troll, in an attempt to be made mod.

If the moderation was fair it wouldnt be funny.

you're too mean

C'mon, I was trying to defend your honor (in a backhanded sort of way).
What else are pervy uncles for?
-
Pah, you suck at defending my honour. You're a terrible pervy uncle
-
There was no honour at stake! He attacked your honour.
-
Pah, you suck at defending my honour. You're a terrible pervy uncle

Only if you're nice to me. ;)
-
*sigh*
-
What good is being a pervy uncle if I can't give you a hard time once in a while? :P
-
I see what you did there.
-
Shhh... I'm hoping that she forgives me before she notices it.
-
bastard!
-
Now I can't tell if you're still mad at me of if you're flirting. ;)
-
don't worry, i can't tell the difference either
-
Stop flirting with your uncle. You know he can't control himself.
-
I suddenly feel sick
-
That's the shame kicking in.
-
:'(
-
Now it's really taking hold.
-
:'(
self mutilation and refusing to eat are next.

self mutilation and refusing to eat are next.
But I like eating :(
-
Well you'll hate yourself because of the shame. What you now like wont' matter.
-
Shame sucks :(
-
Yes, but shame is important, it keeps our flaws in the dark so they never get fixed. I'm pro shame.
-
What good is adopting a pervy uncle if you can't flirt with him once in a while? ;) Seriously, what part of pervy uncle is causing so much confusion? ???
-
AWWWWWWKWAAAAAAAAARD!
-
Maybe I should have just adopted you as my grandad as was the first idea
-
Maybe I should have just adopted you as my grandad as was the first idea
But do you really want a pervy grandad? That would be creepy.

this is good and bad. i was having fun with the almighty god of trolls. but, he did deserve banning, so yay!!
-
Banned for trolling on TFES.......
Narc banned for trolling.....
the gods of irony.... no..... things that should happen all the time but don't ever have acted.
-
WTF, Raist you'd be banned 5x over if ever troll was banned on this site.
Gimme a break.
-
Robo you are a failure. Seriously. Who unbanned this fuck?
(i reserve the right to say fuck because seriously. Narc has become unbanned twice now for clearly bannable offenses.)
-
I agree.
And can I mention he's a total jerkoff too?!
-
No one probably unbanned him.
-
Unbanning someone usually doesn't do a lot if they were never banned in the first place.
-
huh?
-
It was kind of funny, really. Narc cracks me up.
-
huh?
I didn't ban Narcberry. It was all a joke.
-
Actually it was all my idea. ;D
-
I won't personally ban narc unless he does something really heinous again. He just amuses me too much.
-

BTW, Congrats Roundy! 8)

Thanx! 8)

Also, my sig.
-
Congrats roundy!
-
Thank you.
-
Yeah... congrats.
-
I'm jealous because I'm not a mod.
Fixed.
Also, congrats Roundy!
-
Thanks.
Sorry, Hara.
-
Also my sig.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!
-
I'll be made mod before you because all I've had is an unofficial warning for trollfeeding, which is allowed now, it seems. You, on the other hand, nearly got us all arrested.
-
Was that when he linked to the FBI search engine?
-
A search for "kiddie porn" or something on it, yes.
-
If there was one reason not to make him a mod it would be that.
But there isn't one, there are many.
-
Roundy got banned before but he's a mod
-
Har har, I've never been banned.
Don't do it for the irony, mods.
-
I've never been anything. Dogplatter got PMSy on me once or twice, but no bans, no real warnings.
