Foshjedi2004 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I am sorry guys but I need to go to sort out my Head, I have just got so pissed off with the Nexus-NMA debate that I need a little time to cool down. Also the fact that this forum is becoming too much like LEC has forced my hand in the matter. See you in a few weeks. If you want to get in touch go to Nexus or the LoW forums.

Darkmark Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 The time of year is getting to everyone. Even I thought about giving up my position so I could concentrate on work in the real world, and the influx of immature blood to the forums isn't a help. Hope the break does you good Fosh. In the meantime, I'll do my best to keep up the British side of the forums... what, what. Tally ho, etc...

Siddus Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Guys, all of this is "normal" and will get worse with time. On our forums (on eaw-fr.com / swg-fr.com ) we have more than 9,000 members, arround 800,000 posts/year I can say we know the "noob way of life". Keep in mind PFF are "forums where Devs post" , PFF are "biggest forums about EaW" , we're attractive. That's why more and more people , and so, more and more damns guys actings as kids will come here. Two choices : we let this like now. Forums will grow fastly but we'll loose people who gonna have the same problem as Fosh. I think you can guess it would be first "quality" members who will leave soon. Then, devs won't post anymore, no interest, PFF team will move somewhere else and the story will start again. Or, we have to organize PFF team. Most used forums must have a big warning and a tutorial.Warning : "Each post with repetitive,spam etc etc. will be delete immediately" . If guys complains, you ban because we have to keep order with thousands of mesages. And a tutorial, because we aren't Tyrans. A tutorial about the "search" feature. It can seem a little "hard" although I think it may be more natural for Anglo-Saxon mind to be a little "straight' . To do this, we need 2 or 3 people, real moderators, to filter GD forum and screen forum. To handle a big forums is not easy at all, we had to make difficult choices on ours, I just hope PFF will keep conviviality and a good atmosphere where Fans from whole the world will be able to gather on.

Siddus Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 One more thing ! There is something I really don't like PFF. Some of you have problems with stickies and annoucements and stick any post anywhere. I think it's one a the reasons that make forums like GD one not a very clean one. Even this post, why an annoucement ? Take Fosh during your cool down time, but it's not the end of the world and I don't think annoucement was really necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen.Vader Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 man, it seems the forum has become all dramatic as of late, suddenly, from out of nowhere, trollers and spam and other fiends have descended on the peace of the PFF, slowly making it swell with an abundance of posts already testing the patience of its moderators....then internal disputes...and then..... the most awful thing of all discovered by me....... EAW has been delayed....... DUN DUN DUN! humor 101 for the humorless I've have you now - Lord Vader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cain Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I think that in the end we will have to create another GD. One were you need permisssion. I've seen this before - a subforum were you need permission to post. It seems to be the only solution at this time. As for the sticky topics that should not be sticky well that should no longer happen now. Anyway Fosh - you still get me rung - but of course if you need time to "cool down" its ok. When you will return you will welcomed back to your old job with open arms. The so called problems betwen the NMA and Nexus are not actually problems but much more a need to know each other. .... Ok I need to know how we should name the special new elite GD forum ? - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will not be leaving the forum as we see you have done something about the spammers that were pissing me off.

Yeah we're trying to find solutions but having a new GD is not a solution. I saw the topic about recruiting new moderators. I don't think it's a good idea for the moment because we are not organized. This is the key. Bigedmond Darkmark DarthScharnhorst EvilleJediGen.Vader JediIgor Joshinator uggernaut1985 Lord_Scud MyZrael PirateChiken Seewolf Siddus Stellar_Magic Steve Vader89 ZerOGrAviTy Here is the list of PFF moderators. I think you should first move LEC guys to the groupe "EAW developpeurs" or create a group "EAW testers" to clean this list. Then you have to wonder : "Who is doing what ?" ->Darkmark and Siddus are handling news and welcome office for example. After doing this, you simply choose 3 guys who will moderate actively the four "Empire at War" forums. Then two more guys to check the Bar and games & Mod sections. Other people shouldn't be moderator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foshjedi2004 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Umm...This is confusing. I am not a Moderator and yet I can still get into this area?? Whats that all about? Is it because I used to be a Mod or something? http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JediIgor Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Stop complaining so much, your custom rank is probably letting you in here. I'm fine with LEC/EAW staff being in moderator group, we don't need for them to be getting a zillion PMs, cause then they'd probably stop responding to them completely, *or* we'd have to disable PMs for them. No thanks. What we could do is boot all the inactive moderators from the group.. that would work well. i disagree with the whole ask for permission thing, let ppl post freely, if they mess that up...suspend them. I tend to agree.. having registration as a requirement already deters most of the big idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostly_Substance Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Siddus I tried organizing what role we do but nobody wanted to and just roamed the forums unorganized. I'm not saying i'm the best but I only asked what our roles were in this forum. Damn Marcus, we should go back to the system were couple people view over a certain forum. For good measure have 3 people in a forum section so no spammers go loose and we do the job we do best. Example: Me, Fosh, Steller_magic look over official media and General chat for example. Then Gen.Vader,Darkmark, Garbageben(if accepted) would look over the General Chat For those that were here early (before the 100 people mark) You would know that it was set up like that and that seems better since people now seem unorganized. -One Empire falls another riseshttp://myanimelist.net/signature/EuroSubstance.png http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/os/type/2/ghostlysubstance.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foshjedi2004 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 If you look back about 10-12 threads I proposed such a strategy. But Cain Rebutted me. I believe that if the staff of the NMA controlled the NMA and a modding section. The Holonet News Staff controls the News Forums and The EAW preview section. Thus allowing the other Forums to be divided up. Everyone Is a Moderator in the Bar. That makes sense as it allows everyone to control the Spam Count. I propose that we delete some of the Spam threads that have cropped up in that forum. I admit that many of us will take a large loss in the amount of posts we have but it will allow us to calm down the section. I also propose we get rid of the Bestine Cantina. Sorry Ghostly but I really don't see the point of it. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
