LNBS - The People's Mod... term limits?

First and foremost... I want to express to Flop that this thread is not in any way shape or form meant to show disrespect or a lack of gratitude for the work done.

Second... this thread is not created to express interest in being a moderator here.

-----

Listening to a conversation tonight were people were talking politics (upcoming election and complaining about entrenched representatives) and it got me thinking to when Flop was voted in as the mod in 2011 and was dubbed "The People's Mod". I was wondering what you all thought about having a single mod position being an elected position for a term of 4 years.

In my head:

* Every 4 years a thread is created by an Admin asking for nominations for "The Peoples Mod".

* People would nominate... then vote

* The incumbent mod could very well be re-elected or a new one would take their place.

What say you?

A much better way to handle it would be if everyone was responsible to ignore people they don't like.

I personally like reading some of the things you don't think are 'positive'. Everyone is going to have a different opinion on where that line is....

To ban SOME people for these violations and not others is stupid and unfair.

Either have a rule where you cant say anything negative in game threads or don't. Don't make it selective based on a whim. Limit people to post once every 5 minutes or 3 minutes if you want to cut down the number of posts. But make it fair and transparent and easily understandable.

I would be saying the same thing about anyone. Even the people I disagree with. I do not think you are handling this correctly. If you were the one getting banned for being an asshat, I would be sticking up for you...even though I don't like you.

Just my 2 cents
So you're saying that if someone expresses themselves in a way that you don't approve of then it's up to you to deal with it internally and ignore it rather than trying to stifle that expression? Like, say, if someone flies a flag that you don't like then you should ignore it and move on instead of lashing out like an angry little bitch?

We've already had one person banned from the site despite apparently not having actually done anything ban worthy while on the site. We don't need mods making even more decisions of that sort.
Yeah, there are TWO trolls on temp bans.

That said, I appreciate the many kind words I've received from people whenever these threads randomly pop up. Genuinely. It is a pretty thankless job...
Your face is made of ass.

We're not suddenly on a slippery slope. Thread bans have been a thing for a while and dumping the worst trolls has been a thing for 15 years. Clay's been banned several times, CoMo did everything except ask to be banned. Neither of those are out of the ordinary in any way.

That said, if we do start making more of those decisions, it's because of the overwhelming response from people who want more moderation.

I didn't say it would happen immediately. It's how these things typically play out over time, not the very next day.

...I mean , I really don't even mind the lashing out part..

Its the mod banning them for doing what every single other person does with no clear violation of TOS that I mind....

The lashing out is funny
