View Full Version : If you were a TiBB moderator for a day.....

..and admin gave you permission to make one new rule/change....nothing which involves any personal snipe or gripe...but a change that you think would benefit the whole forum....

..what rule/change would you make....?

..and obviously so this doesn’t exclude mods...is there a change you would like to see happen..or have helped make happen...?..or you can just give ideas a general thumbs up or down.....

I would ban these sort of threads, you are trespassing on very tainted ground.

The power us MODs behold is sacred and talking about it so willy nilly is a touchy subject.

That or I would change the colour of member's names to match the post count they are on... e.g. 10k blue coloured name, 20k red coloured name etc etc.

Physical punishments would be introduced... although they wouldn't be needed as I would have permabanned everyone who annoys me, even a little bit.

I'd introduce custom display name changes

People couldn't change their login username itself but they could change their display name to something else easily if they wanted, like as a setting in their User CP (with perhaps a limit to the number of times a month or something)

Would save Kaz a load of trouble at Christmas as well :laugh:

Considers this for when we need to appoint a new MOD.

On topic though I'd like if we could "like" posts and maybe right a comment to the user about the post

Marc
12-11-2012, 11:34 AM
How would I know? :idc: don't even know them

Marc
12-11-2012, 11:35 AM
To be able to "like" comments would be fun.

Ammi

..yeah, I do that on another site, it's quite cool....your forum 'reputation' is built by the comments from other users....it would be good to do it here...so long as people didn't abuse it...

Yeah, It's nice to see someone appreciated a good post and it's nice to be able to rep other peoples posts too. I find myself trying to do it here sometimes lol

I would finally get rid of Marc.

Kizzy
12-11-2012, 11:55 AM
As well as a 'like' could we also have a 'dislike' for posts that are nothing to do with the OP?
This would show members who contribute nothing to the forum.

Kick the **** out of the swear filter and put it in a coma

Either Get Rid of the Swear Filter I swear it's *Censored and now banned*

Vicky.
12-11-2012, 01:13 PM
Yeah I think the first thing I would do is get rid of the swear filter too, IMO its very unnecessary.

Maia
12-11-2012, 01:14 PM
Enough about the swear filter what about my amazing usernames idea :idc:

Niamh.
12-11-2012, 01:16 PM
That would be really confusing Mollie :laugh:

Kate!

I also like the idea Marc mentioned about people's user names being colour customised to reflect their post count.

Niamh.

Oh also on this other forum I'm joined there's a Veterans area, you need to have over 2k posts to get in there and be a member for a certain length of time, also you have to PM a photo of your self to a mod with a certain word written on it. Within the Veterans area there's also a girls and a boys section, the boys can't see the girls section or post in it and vice versa

Ramsay
12-11-2012, 01:23 PM

I'd unmerge Serious Debates and News Stories. And maybe even create a Politics section :pipe:

12-11-2012, 02:01 PM
I think we should be given more power :idc:

I mean that seriously though, James is really the only active Admin these days and it'd probably be easier if were given the ability to take care of some minor things like name changes etc. not actually sure if that'd be possible though

Niamh.
12-11-2012, 02:01 PM

Yeah, this, as well as getting rid of the swear filter (as others have mentioned). A like/dislike button wouldn't be a bad thing either.

Swap the swear filter for a new system where when someone says a swear word it is replaced by a silly word so we can all grow out Of using swear words :idc:

This. And I would edit the title of the DVD forum to include the word 'technology' so there's actually a place to post those kind of threads. :idc:

Or you could have a junior member setting, where anyone under 16 has swear words filtered

King Gizzard
12-11-2012, 03:29 PM
yeah but the real reason of the swear filter is cause it makes the forum a bit cheap and trashy not to protect younglings

Niamh.
12-11-2012, 03:32 PM
Oh yes, I forgot that

Cant do that apprently. When I asked about an optional swear filter, james said the filter is applied when the post is being made...rather than when its being read if that makes sense. So it wouldnt be possible to have an optional one of any kind, tis all or nothing :idc:
