Arrow Way to many super mods.

If I'm not mistaken almost everyone that can view this forum has super mods powers correct (which I don't have)? Due to the recent talks of temporary bans it is my opinion that in the best interest of the board that the banning powers should be stripped away. Only 2 or maybe 3 (MAX) people should have the power to ban besides Chad. My vote is for arch and Grant to have these powers. Also I see no point in letting people having the power to lock/delete threads in almost every forum. Seriously Chad why did waste all that time assigning mods if you have super mods?

Sorry, not to be a jerkoff, but I didn't pay $50 just to be a normal user here.

Well your the exception. Plus you rather quiet when it comes to banning and locking threads, your one of the only members who just kind of ignores the drama.

I think you need more than 2 supermods to keep you highschoolers in line.

well i dont mean to say we should only have 2. i was just using ben and arch as examples. supermods should be people that are usually neutral in arguements so their opinions arent biased...know what i mean?

I'm a supermod because I'm working on the new Project Camaro website (well, as soon as Chad gets those DB backups )... I asked Chad if I could be one, and he thought it was a fair trade. My default usergroup is registered user, so what it really means is that the only power I have is to moderate all forums (which is what I was asking for, because I wanted to get rid of all that nonsense posting in the Name, Age, and SN thread that I accidentally entirely deleted instead of just the "Add me" and side talk posts), I can't edit any user information or ban or suspend people (atleast I'm assuming on the ban or suspend part, I tried changing my own custom title and it wouldn't work, so if I can't do that I'm pretty sure banning or suspension wouldn't work) The only thing I've done with my "powers" was delete Jimmy's personal attack, close my own spoiler thread, and post a response in the Jimmy thread since it was semi-directed at me in the first place. Aside from that, I just go about like normal.

nah, there's two different ways of doing a supermod. You can belong to the supermod group, and you can also have your DEFAULT group be Supermod... having your default group be a supermod means that you have pretty much admin powers, being defaulted to registered user but belonging to the supermod group gives you forum control and that's it.

edit, and no I don't think supermods = admins, since I have VBulletin myself, I understand what supermods are...

Or how about someone who is awake at 0300 to delete 50 posts of 40IMG tags with flopping out of some chicks fingers?

Everyone ******* argues, its a fact of life. This site will never 100% agree with anything and there is always going to be feuds like this.

What is even the point of this thread? To say that we shouldn't have 7 people that can moderate all the forums? With the amount of traffic we have now, yeah its probably a little excessive, but no harm no foul. I'm not seeing anyone that is going crazy locking and deleting threads or banning people, so I really don't see your point.

Yes, and I unlocked it and deleted his immature remarks. Let's keep the bickering to this forum and not spill it out into the rest of the forum. Even with how angry I was with Jimmy, I still only posted my remarks in here and didn't go posting remarks about him on the board. I deleted the post and kept quiet about it (aside from this forum, which as I previously stated everyone is a mod here, so in my opinion no foul there to have the majority of the mods on the same page, otherwise there was no mentions of the post being deleted [aside from Jimmy knowing, of course]).
