cB performance Options

[Tung]

Should we have a pinned topic thread like Moderator Performance, where we just discuss the current state of cB and what we can do as a community to improve it?

I don't want to seem condescending, but I honestly feel like you've been rather cryptic with all of this. I don't think you've been very clear with just what we aren't doing that we're capable of doing. But just because I'd like to, I'll take a stab at it, here I go!

I do agree with you on the punishment issue - the first punishment for something is perhaps smaller, but if the "offense" is repeated, we should then tighten it up and make it more severe, not issue the SAME punishment. I don't know if specifically we've been seen doing that lately, but now that you've brought it up I think we should all be more than willing to watch what we're doing in that regard.

As far as the bans go, I like the current warning system, and we ARE tightening up on the way we deal out punishments in a lot of different ways. I think that in a lot of situations a ban is too severe and just a warning will suffice. If a person receives two warnings, they are no longer an official member, and to some people that's a rough enough punishment in itself! When appropriate, bans WILL be used; I just don't think it's necessarily to limit ourselves to JUST issuing bans. The point is to make the community a better place to post, not to piss people off.

Last thing. I respect you and realize that you have a lot of helpful things to say, but I really have to say that I disagree with you in a big way on the statement about how problems related to CB fall back on and reflect the staff's overall performance. I think the staff and the community play equal parts in keeping a community going. That's not to say that moderators shouldn't take on a higher responsibility for the "health" of the community, because we should. I just don't believe that during times when CB is inactive or "boring", it means that the staff is doing a bad job.

EH ALSO (I know I said that was the last thing) we WILL be making it a point to close old topics that were bumped and are dated/have no chance for further conversation.

Also I'd like to know what would Mods consider this: http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...t&p=2908393

Yeah

LOL! I didn't notice it either until you said something.

Tama, by quoting it, aren't you just advertising it more?

I don't even know who the mods are man... I thought Tung was a mod... but he doesn't care about the image. I see that there's at least one person here who's speakin up as a mod and working on things... so I decided to bring it to their attention.

[Tung]

Yeah

You thought I was a mod?!
Since when, and what brought you to that conclusion? Just curious.

And yeah I don't care about the image as I don't see what's wrong with it. I mean it's a bump in his pants. Should all images of girls that have bumps on their chest be remove to?

Doesn't matter anymore. I can care less.

Don't even start pulling that card. You cared, and now that people jumped your case, you're going to back down. That is the worst way to end anything. At least man up and say it doesn't matter instead of making it seem like we should pity you.
