Mods Deserve Admin Powers

[MessengerOfDreams]

I personally think that the mods deserve the admin powers they have, and the site needs them. I think that things like DO NOT OPEN maaaay be pushing it a teeny bit, but nothing else but good has come out of it. I know certain people I do not wish to address by name will do everything in their power to force the mods to give it up, but I say nay! They deserve it! Go mods!

Did you make this topic because I sent that e-mail to Runouw?

Hey, it's Linkdroid from Runouw.com. I just want to ask you something. Why did you give the Global Moderators some Admin Powers. I mean, it's just not right if they have those powers. If they have Admin Powers, they should just be Administrators and not a Global Mod. So my opinion is that they shouldn't have Admin Powers. I think that you should take them off. It's just not right if they had powers. They already changed the Off-Topic title to 'Yoshi's Island'. It's good that fourinone doesn't have the powers. So ONLY Admins should have those powers, not the Global Moderators. If you want them to keep those powers, you might as well make them Administrator. I liked it the way before but now, it's ruined. When I said this to the chat, I got banned which is really sad. I was just stating my opinion and then everyone was fighting. Also, they just added stupid smiles and scary faces on the Forum Rules. So please, I just want you to take those powers off them!

Cheese? Sorry... deese?

Anyway, I agree with MOY on this. The glob mods can edit and change the site as they are here much more than Runouw is, and he doesn't (seem) to do much while on. This way, the site changes can be done, and Runouw doesn't have to do it. It's a win-win situation.

I already emailed him. Just need support. NOT FLAMING. Post if you support the mod powers staying like a petition!

[MICrophone]

There is no petition unless the powers are revoked. Otherwise, we're just pledging support for something that already exists, and what is the point of that?

That said, I agree with MOY and Buff. I think the mods have done some great things with their new powers, and really am looking forward to further improvements to the forums.

Well what else could they add? >_> I mean, I don't know if I agree yet, because really, what other powers could be given to Global Mods that wouldn't technically make them Administrators? I'm not saying the Global Mod powers should be revoked, I'm just saying that if the Mods WERE given more powers, wouldn't it just be easier to promote them to Admin status? >_>

Oh, come off it, LD! Are you really going to make such a big deal out of something? Okay, so now the global mods have more powers. Where does the problem lie? It's easier on all of us because now they can handle the things Runouw never did. If you're mad because their status hasn't been changed to Admin, then what a sad reason to have their powers taken away!

[MessengerOfDreams]

Ld's problem could be jealousy... But I digress. If i have to stop one of my best friends from beating up my worst enemy, that is a big problem and sacrifice. I just think that LD has a big influence over the mods and admin and I want Runouw to see how much we appreciate his decision

[Blablob]

When it comes down to it, Runouw almost definitely will not be taking away their admin powers; there is more good than bad in this (if there is any bad), so LD really is wasting his time with this.

Oh... So this is basically a topic that is completely against LDs opinion... I see, and I thought we were free to say whatever we wanted... >_> I guess not.
