Mods and their Arrogance-Sometimes

[oxymoron]

Heh. Arrogance? It's the internet. Everyone has a huge ego.

Oh yes angsty "YOUR JUST A NERD WHO SPENDS YOUR WHOLE LIFE ON DIS FORUM!!11" PM's from aggrieved youngsters is truly heartbreaking. I'm sure it's driven you to the brink of suicide many times now eh? Poor guy...How does he cope?

3 Cheers for Phoenix's Low Self Esteem and sense of worth!

How about you stop whining and get on the boat. Otherwise, jump overboard.

Arrr.

Yup

the truth is, everyone chastises us and they have no idea what is actually going on behind the scenes. most people don't see the places where idiots post links to gay porn or continually using profanity. we have been awarded with the responsibility of keeping the place clean after serving the community before and during our modship.we were selected out of how ever many thousands of users are here because we are trustworthy and exercise good judgment. people take us for granted and then wonder why we "pick" on them when they legitimately continue to break rules. all we really want is respect and understand that we sacrifice our spare time for this community. just a little appreciation would be nice.

This facepalming goes waaay to far in between...

[Gypsy]

Enh just in case anyone was wondering, I love the mods (mostly) and what they do. The facepalm is directed at dan's warped guardian complex. I'm aware of all those links, because I've posted them somewhere before. I FAP TO GOATSE.

Good judgment would involve banning trolls quicker. Ozzie had waaay too much time, if he were a good troll, much trouble could have been had.

olook, it's advent.

Hay dumbass.

Yeh, the quote helped me to see that..
But i think know all facepalm pics now, and they cover up a lot of space (and loading time with my net >.>)

Yes sometimes mod's do abuse their power's but only for the greater good of the Lf community, if there was different moderator's it would be just as worse.

Hey I slightly remember your name, I think I always saw you on your Grey

Not everyones perfect. Some mods may not even have experience moderating a forum. Give them a break. LF is still here isn't it? People aren't retiring because of them. People are retiring becase they're getting old, or the game is getting old (trust me, I know) Yes, they're could be improvements, but it's not liek an overnight thing, it takes TIME. Give them break.
