Moderator Changes

[CRoNic...]

It's ok Nightcrawler, i had just woken up and was grumpy. I was merely stating that changes had to be made because there is far too much bickering on here, too many ppl with their knickers up their clacker and more warnings need to be given out before it turns SAU into a complete joke. No disrespect to the current moderators at all, there just wasn't enough of you. I've been contemplating cancelling my account purely because there is too many ppl getting on their high horse and ruining what used to be a half decent forum back in the day.

Lol...

Compared to say, ns.com... I'd class this as a forum worthy of my bandwidth.

[Ryanrb25]

i wasn't comparing. NS is a different forum. We are talking about this one...please stay on topic.

[gtrkiet]

yep +1 to that.. if u considering canceling your account you shouldve canceled you ns.com one 2 years ago lolol

joel was the best, gave me so much information and advice on my car that i still use and tell to others today. he is a very smart guy. he isnt gone tho? hes just reducing his responsibility here on the site. i can understand that, its hard work dealing with donkeys like me.

[Ryanrb25]

I agree Paully. There's only a select few people around who know what their talking about these days and Joel was one of them.

[Tangles]

love joel to hell. great bloke and top family, little kid is the greatest

pity he's moved on, always trusted his advice and opinions, moreso than any other.

will be missed.

SA section needs more skyline/RB related stuff.

[rad100]

we should have a sub forum.... all personal talk....

[CRoNic...]

Yeah like a dedicated Wasteland section.

[rad100]

no actually like a personal issues thread, or NON car related talk...

the wasteland is good were it is.. just all the other bullshiet threads taking up space..

[heslo]

I don't think the problem is that we need more sub forums, I think the problem is people need to think about what they are posting before they do and where it should go, ie. the wasteland. More subforums just creates more hassles and lets be honest, who's really going to use them anyway

[Howie]

Grats.. Keep up the good work at SAU.

[Ryanrb25]

That's right, Im sure you dont need SAU to answer all of your questions in life.

[PREISS]

This is a great forum, and I have been a member longer than most

Problem is there doesnt seem to be too much to talk about in SA anymore when it comes to Skylines. Spotted and wasting time threads about nothing seem to dominate the headlines with some defect banter for good measure. A lot of the guys and girls with big combos wont post for all sorts of reasons, and some of the newer members - no offence - have nothing worth posting about. Its a Catch 22 and someone needs to step up with some worthwhile content

+1

[Nightcrawler]

Yeah we have tried to get sub-forums happening in the past, but it is not an SAU priority. I agree with Luke - people just need to use the search function a lot more, and/or keep whatever crap they need to rant about to themselves or the wasteland.

Honestly, you guys wouldn't believe how many bs threads I delete before anyone else even sees them.

It is a thankless job, being a mod, but imagine if we weren't here to keep the peace.

Martin, I could not have worded my thoughts more succinctly.

Ryan, yes I agree to some extent, but you can't expect us to be too harsh - it is a world of free speech (within reason) and we don't want to be Nazi mods.

Also, some people on here think the mods read every single post within minutes of it being posted - well that just isn't true, and is an impossibility. If you have a problem with anyone's posts, then report them and I/we will take action. Make sure you are VERY specific about which which comments you find to be unnecessary/offensive, who posted them, and the time of the post - then I can track them down easily.
