New site staff and Mod, TresDias/Squall_of_SeeD

[Cat Rage Room]

Then what is the point of you interjecting yourself as the center of attention and contention then?

I honestly didn't mean to, man! I was just giving my thoughts and being representative of the view the Staff (including me) discussed when we were deciding on his ascension to mod. Ah well!

With that said I'm going to play some Left 4 Dead!

I've said my piece, if people are just going to come up with some bullshit about how things are being blown out of proportion instead of answering a simple legitimate question, then it probably is best if I leave. Instead I get hysterics opposed to an actual answer which would put the matter to bed easily enough.

Tbh this site has waned for a while now, and with staff having become more and more complacent regarding co-action with members, I find it mostly distasteful.

I mean really, it's such a big deal that I want to know what makes this guy suitable for being a super moderator, as opposed to just being site staff, which seems to be his main focus anyway?

Epically when you have a perfectly good Vendel lying around not being used.

Send staff another PM imo. they might just let you join up now.

 

[Max Payne]

Goddamnit, I laughed.

I did when Cole was dumped. If I knew a spot was still open I would have again.

 

[Max Payne]

Lol I wish I was "dumped".

Then I'd have justification for butthurt rage.

 

[Alex]

Think I'd stance a chance if I did it?

well, it's not like you know Japanese or write essays or anything.

 

[Alex]

I write alot of essays! >

Just you know, on things that aren't Final Fantasy

 

[Marauder]

Is this really that big of a deal? He wasn't appointed the leader of a nation, he was made a mod on a goddamn FF message board.

If it really isn't a big deal, then the question should be answered with minimal fuss and bitching! As members/active posters/etc. we are entitled to question you, this doesn't necessarily mean that anything needs to come of it...just that we're allowed to do it, if we so desire.

I already said that I don't care and so it remains.

 

[Isabella]

Why are people blowing this out of proportion? Very little actual modding goes on around here anyway.

 

[Marauder]

Then, as Dacon said, why is TresDias a mod and not just site staff? If we're in such little demand for moderators and all.

 

[Isabella]

I dunno, and it's just not something I care about. Or does he get a bigger paycheck as a mod than as staff?

 

[Max Payne]

Why are people blowing this out of proportion?

Ask the people that won't answer a simple question.

I dunno, and it's just not something I care about.

The don't post.

 

[Alessa Gillespie]

I think mods are allowed to post drunk, whereas staff are generally frowned upon when they do that.

 

[Marauder]

Seriously, I lol'd.

 

[Isabella]

Well now that answer makes sense. Now I can see why this topic is worth getting our panties in a wad over.

 

[Marauder]

I thought you didn't care, anyway? - insert eye roll here for dramatic effect -

 

[Max Payne]

Makes more sense than people claiming not to care yet still wasting time posting about things they don't care about.

 

[Isabella]

This from a guy who never, ever spams.

 

[Marauder]

I'll say it again, I just like arguing. I guess in some circles it's considered trolling, but I am truly curious about the answers to the questions at this point.

Dacon? Spam? LOL!

 

[Max Payne]

This from a guy who never, ever spams.

This from a woman who doesn't care.

 

[Dashell]

I love how a lot of you think Tres was modded ONLY because of his essays XD

 

[ForceStealer]

Now comes the "Because that's the only reason anyone has given" when people have said more than a few times now that he's active in the compilation sections (which, interestingly enough, most of the people against it do not frequent).

Perhaps more important than the frequency of his activity in those sections is the quality of his posts. I don't think I've seen him post anything yet that wasn't substantial and respectful.
