Do some moderators use a multi ID to post in the BB section?

What do you mean by multi ID? Like another account?
If so then no, ain't nobody got time for that.

I think I speak for most moderators in saying that the BB section is often a chore and I don't think anyone could truly be bothered to make a multi just to say something they could say on their main account.

On season is the busiest time for mods, endless reports every day which I think it has a negative effect on us wanting to actually talk about BB. We're more active off season because there's usually less to deal with.

Come on, you expect that to be believed..maybe on a good day tibb gets 60 posts to deal with...one minute a judgement...:joker:

It doesn't matter whether or not you believe it, doesn't make it any less true.

Nope. Don't see why we would?
But I admit I haven't read the thread yet to see reasons why you think we might

This post..doesn't make sense to me in the context of the question in the OP?
Did you mean do some mods use a multi ID for offseason? In which case, the answer is still no..
Edit. Nope. I read it wrong. Honestly...Many mods do not give a crap about BB anymore. Also we tend to stick a bit more to the mod chat thread during BB...and finally, its not worth getting too involved in discussions on season as a staff member, as its ALWAYS used against you if you do. Members will see a few mods like one housemate, then decide that the infraction they recieved was because they dislike that housemate, and so on. Which is the reason for those of us who are still pretty obsessed with BB...use the mod chat thread more often when BB is on
I think I still post a fair bit (probably more than is healthy) on the BB boards during on season :laugh:

Guess unless you describe your actual job then i will never know if that is correct or not.

Off season, yes fair comment.

To go on from the edit....should mods who dont give a crap about bb be moderating on what is predominantly a bb forum?

Well given the mods who do give a crap about BB are constantly accused of being biased because of giving a crap about BB...maybe mods who do not watch BB are best placed for moderating during BB :laugh:
Talking of this...sometimes I report posts rather than deal with them myself, so that another mod (who doesn't watch/like BB, or just is not a fan/disliker of certain housemates) can look over it before something is deleted/infracted just incase there is a bit of bias there.
But I do this during offseason too if I am a little over-invested in a topic, and when dealing with members that I may not be too keen on overall.

Also your poll should have been a public one tbh, so you can see who voted. As whats going to happen here is a bunch of members press the first option for ****s and giggles :p
Edit. Yet again...unless I saw this wrong and its a question for all...to give their opinions on if we do or not. Rather than actually asking us if we do :facepalm: I seems to be misreading or misunderstanding a lot tonight tbh

Ah, but the bigger question is..do we have undercover mods:joker:

I made it non public so mods can be truthfull in a truth thread..:smug: the mere fact you checked adds to suspicion...(snort)

Ahh I see. The only mods who have been online since the thread was posted though, have been me and dezzy. And you have 6 votes :laugh:
Vicky.
16-10-2017, 10:36 PM
But is that the truth :suspect:
It was 1-1 at the start with only dezzy commenting..so unless you can flick a switch i voted no...
But is that the truth :suspect:
Fannymagee is always on and off line daily..never posts during bb though.:nono:

Because you need to have watched BB to know whether Poster 1 calling Poster 2 a dickhead breaks the rules?

Its a bit like being an abusive carer, being a mod in here for some of them.
At one time you would have looked on in admiration at that person(bb), but now its just an annoyance(bb) so they react like a deflating balloon as they look at the 10th complaint of that day about some poster commenting on an overweight female hm.
You do get the good carers though, who go out there way on xmas day or a sunday. The real people.

At one time you would have looked on in admiration at that person(bb), but now its just an annoyance(bb)...would you still let them keep the job?

I'd agree if this wasn't triggered by the truths ban.
That guy deserved every beating the abusive carer gave him.

So you were motivated to discuss the mods and their abilities prior to truths holiday? :smug:

Its against the rules to discuss members...which you are doing now....cant see a rule about mods...they cant be members because im one and i cant mod..
Their abilities to what? Change a name!...look out stephin hawkins!
Seriously though marsh...
Bore off ...your arista account has more appeal

Their ability to moderate a forum without needing a fake name on another account to post normally as themselves. You seem to suggest the two are incompatible. I merely ask why you think this. If not started because of truths ban then what?
Against the rules to discuss members? I'm discussing your reason for starting this thread, a perfectly valid topic. If it was against the rules to even refer to one another there would be no forum.
Seriously parmnion...
