Moderation

The clinic is where the real action will be. *chuckles darkly*

Oh man, record-breaking activity in some threads. Not everyone will be happy

When I want to read honest and balanced reviews of a race, I always check out the clinic first.
I expect the 'Most memorable doped performances?' thread (one of my favorites) to shine brightly this year.

"Both Moderators" is so funny, like all two of them for the whole forum, kinda like the entire world economy running on Excel 2007 or a space rocket being held up with some duct tape and spit

There have been many calls put out for more volunteers. Until then, we do what we can.

There had already been one thread deleted as it was just too much a magnet for trolling. I have now deleted a second for the same reason.

Imagine if there was no moderation? I would not underestimate the effort required and that volunteer moderating draws my attention away from enjoying the racing. A little appreciation goes a long way.

Wait, did that come across as me making fun of the mods? If so I apologize, because the joke was that it's an unsung job and an insane amount of work for only two people who clearly need to go beyond what would be reasonably expected of them (much like Excel and the duct tape). Rather, I was making fun of the higher ups who own like a gazillion message boards but won't allocate any resources to them nor throw in any incentives to get more people to volunteer as mods

Thanks for clarifying, I was meaning to respond to your comment when I read it. Thanks for the support, indeed, we do what we can.

I think it's twice as many as before...

Great... now the mods are telling people they're free to spam the Pogacar thread with the "mou" nonsense...

Absolutely not. If you want to make a query about what is happening, PM one of us.

Oh, sorry. Didn't realise you weren't talking about it the two of you.
Go read the last post in the - now closed, and renamed - Mou thread.

 

[Berniece]

Happy it's closed. Feel free to discuss re-opening it for the next 10 years.

Hey @Armchair Cyclist if I ask you if my vagueposting (not only intended likethat, though) crosses the line, and delete it myself if it does, do I still get points on my overall rule-breaking score?

I'm not sure what you mean by vagueposting, but when considering whether disciplinary action is needed, rapid self-deletion would play a large factor.

I was implying - that I was implying something clinic related. But thanks, that is good to know! The KOR (King of Rule-breaking) eludes me...
