Evaluating the moderation of CSDb
I think it's time to evaluate how the moderation of CSDb is going. Good/bad?.. Anyone?
Something just struct my eye. I just saw the "moderation rules" thread (started by Oswald) being closed for no obvious reason (Ok, Steppe said - "close thread?" or something). I disagree in such an approach to moderation. The moderator should not close a thread unless it's going really bad, and warnings have been issued; furthermore I think moderators who personally participate in a discussion should be rendered powerless over moderating that particular discussion. Furthermore, when closing a thread, I think a reason for doing so should be given..
Oh, and this is not supposed to be another "bitching" topic. I'd like to call and everybody interested to state their thoughts. Good AND bad. Not just bad, please!.. |

I think the problem is when it's the real hot discussions that are mod'ed, because that's when people have invested something in their comments. That's when people get offended, and think the moderators are bias SOBs.. know what I mean?
people should simply take such discussions to the right place. ie NOT flood the comments of some release with generic windows flames. make a new thread in the forum for that kind of stuff.
uhm, and if "hot discussion" means calling each other names and lame and all that crap, i will still delete that when i see it, such stuff doesnt contribute anything to a discussion afterall. if you want to tell the world that someone is lame, make an antidemo goddamnit =P |

Interesting reading. Don't you think it's time to take action though, rather than overflowing the river-dam further ? I think you lot have pretty much said everything about the particular question by now. |

btw the moderation practices really doesnt follow the offcomment rules, comment area is used regurarly to discuss issues about the release. either the rules or the moderation should change. or the rules should be changed to "1. the rule is that there are no rules" ;) |

We could easily leave users roam free here, but then, we could just aswell shut down whats supposed to be a Scener Database and call this Lemon....So, bring on Nata, Bamu and WDR - None of them did anything to make this a better place really. |

No, that's bull. It wouldn't make CSDb into yet another Lemon, because CSDb and Lemon are fundamentally different and appeal to two different kinds of users (simplifying it bit here).. At least I think so.
You're also wrong about Nata/Bamu not contributing with anything here at CSDb. He was annoying and self absorbed at times (especially towards the end), but a good musician and had some great ideas that I think were picked up on in more than one instance.. |

Laxity: If you really think Lemon and CSDb are "funtamentally different" you should do something else than computer stuff from time to time. They'are almost the same, it's just that people on here think they are superior because they know what LDA or FLD mean. 8)
that's the way it is. |
