He ended up being modded instead. That is being made a mod. Satch is now a mod. And Tim Harper isn't one anymore. There, you're all caught up.

Yes, after some discussion with DD, Tim's mod status has been removed. DO NOT MOCK OR FLAME HIM IN ANY WAY OR I WILL NOT BE HAPPY WITH YOU (your warning).

We will be hiring a new admin in about 2 weeks to help clean up our forum and oversee mods.

As to Satch, I feel bad about what happened with you, even if I can't find that durn PM. How can we help earn your trust back? Do you actually want to be a mod? Do you have the time and energy it requires?


I would like to thank Bort for taking the time to go through this thread, and really talking and working with several of the GLB members. Its appreciated to know people have been heard. I think that's what part of the fuel for the week's fire was all this stuff was going down and it seemed like there wasn't anything happening. Bort had a good point about letting people calm down, but once again thanks for sorting this situation out and hearing the voice of reason.


DING!

And if you ever decide to go with more mods for specific regions I would gladly throw my name into the hat for South America. I have taken the Monkeys through 3 levels of competition here and like to think I am respected here (which I think South America needs at this point)

I will have to consolidate the amount of teams I am on anyway due to Monkeyman being done with the Monkeys over all this so I will have the time. I do spend all day on here, I usually just stick to all my team team boards.

This is not something I have ever considered doing, but South America was a pretty special place to play. I would like to help restore it to it's former glory, and I think having a mod in South America that the players know isn't biased against them (whether it's real or imagined) could go a long way to settling things down.

Just an idea, and I will totally understand if this is not cool with you as it is pretty random.

I'd also throw my name out there as a SA mod or put out Dwetzel.


Thanks, but I've got my hands plenty full moderating on another forum.

I got tired of reading through everything but was there a reason behind Satch being made mod aside from him being wronged?

Everyone (players and Bort alike) thought he'd be great for the job. Bort thought he had been asked at one point, but he hadn't. So Bort asked. Satch accepted.

I'd submit that this whole escapade also helped Bort realize that there needs to be "regional" mods who are familiar with the different forums. For instance, a lot of what flies here wouldn't go over well in Oceania, so a mod here would know what is normal for SA and what would cross the line, which is VASTLY different line than Oceania has established for itself. Regional mods who are familiar with players in the same forums could do a much more effective job of knowing what is and isn't appropriate for each group of users rather than having someone who has no familiarity with user's making rulings on them.

Hopefully this is the start of things heading that direction.

Thank god this got accomplished. Congratulations Satch! I'm sure you'll make an outstanding mod for all of us here in SA. You and I haven't had any conversations aside from me getting your projections spreadsheet, but I've seen your posts scattered here and there in the SA forums. You've always seemed to be a straight-shooter and I've definitely gained a lot of respect for you in the way you handle yourself and others.
All that being said, now I can get back to my lowly AAA#1 forums and quit trolling the Pro threads.

I mean... it really smells up here. A weird combination of monkey poo and rabbit sex. What the hell, guys? Satch, you sure you can clean this up?

False.

I believe you said "a questions".
