to all the moderators

[Ven]

out of curiousity.. dont flame me or anything.. do you read every single post?

[Martin L]

noop only from the forums i am interested in

[Bâshrat the Sneaky]

Yes. Certainly in all DriverPacks forums, for obvious reasons. But I'm not a supermod like Martin L is, of course. (If HE would read every post, it'd be close to a 24 hour a day job...)

[SiMoNsAyS]

most of them; i usually don't read what has been posted before but i read all the posts of the sections i'm moderating and many of the rest

Same. Its pretty much impossible to view 150+ topics at night and reply to every single one. I tend to look for suspicious looking topics and ones that I'm interested in!

[Synapse]

shouldn't this be in the Site & Forum Issues thread? lolz j/k

I've been curious about the same question. Thanks for asking Ven.

Now where is prathapml?

Right here.

On days when I am online, I look at every single post that gets posted. In all forums.

And regarding the old posts, yes, I look into those sometimes. Like, a year ago, I could claim to have seen almost every post since 2002.

But nowadays I just see whatever is from timeframe = today.

Perhaps members could help. Like if a bad topic or reply add something like [msfn] as a reply. Then the mod. can simply search for [msfn] and will find all the topics and replies that someone thinks is evil.

[Solid as a rock]

offcourse they do!! they have nothing better to do the whole day....

(no i dont think that... they are as if police, they look around and what they dont like to see, they will handle. otherwise what they dont see, there will be no handle)

Hmmm.... For bad topics/replies there already is a "report" button at the bottom left of each post, placed exactly for the sake of members who'd like to help the mods weed out the bad posts.

It honestly depends on the topic....

I used to reach each post created in the Unattended and Member Projects forums. But then I saw the same thing asked over and over and I knew if I read one more I'd be irritated by that user and be mean to them.

Now I look for ones that could potentially be bad, ones that I'm interested in, and ones that appear to be needing an answer that no one really knows besides the veterans.

OT:When someone clicks on the Report button, is a dialogue box brought up, a list of mods to select from or....? Or should I just click one and give it a test run?

A dialogue box is loaded so that you can state the problem.

A dialogue box is loaded so that you can state the problem.

A new form will appear on the screen, stating the topic title, and a box to put in the report. After you hit submit, an e-mail is sent to all the mods, and the first one that checks their mail will probably act upon it. That being said, it's REALLY annoying when people use taht button to reply to a post, or to call attention from the mods just to get some help (the report literally states "please help")
