View Full Version : Let's vote for a moderator! We're here to help, Mark.

I have compiled a list of 10 Forum Members (max poll-option amount) that WE ALL KNOW are good people and help try and make this place a good forum. We all know that this Forum (as well as Modern War's Forum) needs more moderators. Whether or not Crime City Mark takes action on this thread or not, we will establish our own moderator if he/she is up to it. That being said, I give you ONE VOTE for the poll. The top 2 (unless a complete landslide win) will be chosen (if they wish) to be our own established moderators.

I, personally, am a bit frustrated with others and how much this forum is spammed (by nuisances, not computers) and want it to calm down *just my opinion*.

Vote who you wish is most suitable for the responsibility.

With that being said, I voted for Max Power. Great guy, insightful, posts a decent amount enough to keep up with the forum activity, and well-respected by all.

Cheers,
Dreno33(:

One other thing - if someone is affiliated with a "gang" - maybe too much bias IMO

I wouldn't vote anyone with gang affiliation for chance of bias. I'm glad there are no girls in the poll, they'd get votes just for being female. I voted AppleMacGuy, he's experienced and invested a lot of real world money in the game, plus he's above gang politics.

I voted AMG because he's neutral. I should've voted for Dreno because he's passionate.

Edit: for the record, I think G Wiz would do the best job since he's cool-headed, well-respected and wise. But, L makes a good point about gang affiliation.

Since I'm relatively new to the forum and not that well versed in the 'gangs' of CC, I'll just go with superficial impressions.

My choice would be Max Power, simply because he can kick verbal ass with few words, which to me, is a perfect trait for a mod to have. That and I usually agree with what he says. :)

I appreciate being included in the poll and whoever voted for me..thanks. I have been around since December or so but only active since really April. With that being said i feel often like there is a lot of back story information that occurred long before I arrived that makes me less qualified. I think that the moderator should be someone who has been around quite a long time.I would also hope that there would be a couple of moderators rather than one to double check each other...

Don't stoop to the level of trolls.
Don't be sexist.
Don't be racist.
Follow the posting guidelines.
Don't suggest people cheat or break the forum rules.

Tis a little bit sad to lose popularity contests, especially ones you start yourself. I would also like to withdraw my desire to be put on the poll myself since I am now alligned with the SKK.

The best person to be a moderator would be Nicholost. He left the forum because there is no interesting talk on here these days. It has been ruined by various Trolls who ruin the occasional interesting threads with negativity.

Most of the good people who where on here from the start who actually contributed have gone. (Burn, tramp, nicholost, ghost, Syn, anubis etc)

There are lots of new people who have nothing more to add I'm afraid. The forum is just used as a complaints board to moan how poor the game is or to record how many diamonds people have got.

There is very little point in having any moderators when the is nothing interesting to moderate!

Best post in this thread in my opinion. Lately, moderating this site would be a full time job. The only reason there is so much trolling is bc there is nothing else (for the most part) interesting going on. I have been semi absent lately too. I know hatter is technically a troll and some don't like him ( I'm looking at you QPR :) ) but at least he is interesting and creative with it and I'll comment when he's around. Maybe with more new content in game there can be more creative discussion.

Yep, and Yep.
JC is usually spot-on. Some of the 'trolls' can bring some wit and even sometimes a valid point, others are just trolling to get a rise. I started a thread a while ago asking good people to just hit ignore on those they were annoyed by (I added 3 to my ignore list from that thread alone). Wish there was a way to completely block them.

*edit* nice thought OP and all good candidates. I agree with CCM that they need to handle it, in-house, but I think they need to do a much better job. The forum doesn't make them any $$$ so I doubt much will change. If I had to vote, it would be a toss-up between AMG and White Frog. Both respectable, intelligent and completely neutral.

Well said. I don't think I would want the job either. I also think hell would freeze over and then the Maple Leafs would win the Stanley Cup, long before CCM would ever even consider that idea!

Sort of unrelated, most people seem to be unaware that MP is an Indian too. Funny how some individuals think forum members with gang affiliations should not be given the job, and yet they voted for him anyways! Lol, no offense Max, that's not to say you don't deserve the votes, just feel I should point that out. Either some people have a very short attention span, or have no attention to detail. :p

I agree, and this follows my theory that at some point in time the entertainment value of this game will become saturated and no longer interesting. It makes you wonder why there are people disposing so much money into the game?

I like to sitback and read others contributions. I appreciate all those who came before me and contributed though. There is nothing else to discuss really then events and changes. Most other topics have been discussed and all the information is buried in old threads.

Not much you can do since the game has changed in a manner in which no further strategy or useful discussions are necessary. If anything Funzio has gone backwards. They nerfed valuable lootable items, have not made significant changes to encourage PVE (i.e. prizes like MW beat a boss), and have further discouraged their audience that prefers to not spend money. The reasons why games like World of Waracraft remain popular is because you have to add newer and better content. The execution on some of the changes Funzio has made is questionable. Which has led me to create a new thread poll.

G Wiz
07-08-2012, 07:59 PM
I think that although the forum is an extension of the game, it is still something that needs moderation to prevent so much chaos, trolls and anything opposing the free flow of advice to whoever needs it.

Truth be told, a lot of old post have become outdated, not because of their age, but because the game has changed. People will definately need advice still but the people aren't sticking around.

But maybe this minority has overtime become a majority in my mind...I mean, how many people feel the same way we forumer's do I wonder?

This is a natural progression for most forums. When the game and forum were new, everyone was in the same place. The game had a lot of unknowns and the discovery was shared. There was a lot to talk about stuff in the game and the forum was dominated by that. You hated to go a day without logging in for fear you would miss some new discovery.

Now, the game is not new, there is not much left to discover, many people who craved that have moved on (even if they are still playing) and we have what you see here. The only new things are gold grabs by Funzio. That just creates anger.

So, now, the forum is half full of attention starved kids thinking its really clever to play shell games with forum handles, as if anybody from before cares if they lived or died. Sadly, unless Funzio adds a 100 new levels with a lot of new FREE content, it will not go back to the way it was.
