A Lack Of Moderators Means A return To The Underground Is In Order

There were three topics today in The Underground that got close to flame wars, one of them got pretty hot for a few minutes. It was sucessfully squelched just in the nick of time. I really couldn't figure out who I should contact, I hadn't a clue as to which mod was on at the time. I really think it's high time for everyone to return to The Underground, because if you wait, it'll only get worse as the new people get to know each other before they get to know the older members. This would be bad because we need to brainwash them to our way of doing things; clean and relevant. Someone posted a real winning thread, complete with gteat speculation, and they got flamed almost immediately. Since we only have 3 mods, and Bungie employees are too busy too often, the mature members need to return and force a change instead of waiting for it to come about on its own.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Reiginko Well, it is a good idea to ignore the stupid posts that happen every 2 minutes on the Underground, but it is also kind of the responsibility of the older members to help improve the standard of the forums. In many cases, they will have posted a topic the same as one only a few threads down on the first page, so you [i]have[/i] to point out their mistake, just so it isn't repeated. And when we get search, ooh, they'll be in for it. :) Also, if their is a flame war, somebody does have to try and step in, especially if there aren't any mods online. Sure, one person can't stop some of the tides of rubbish that we get on the Underground, but maybe if we (ie the more sensible members) supported each other we could make at least an impression. Don't be afraid of the flamers; if you get flamed by an idiot, it reflects [b]well[/b] on your personality, if anything. I may be an idealist, but that's what I think we should aim for. Stosh and Shishka aren't superheroes! - Reiginko[/quote] I have seen quite a bit of repeated topics (being here all day) so I will always link the repeated topic to the first one. I also try and answer all questions (including the really, really dumb ones) as soon as possible so the topic can get off the first page before the new user is flamed. And if any of you guys need my "support" in a flame war thread just message me or something. Ill be over whenever I get your message, although if stosh/shishka is on its probably better to message them so that they lock it or something. And yes, Reginko is right. Once they have some sort of search engine, it'll be so much better. I am definitley linking it in my sig. :D
