tennisace: the only way you can do that is to formally nominate them
jumpluff is now known as jumpluff|guest.
tennisace: like we always do
umbreon_dan: yes
umbreon_dan: and that's what i did
tennisace: so why werent the server mods asked
tennisace: i.e. all server mods
umbreon_dan: reachzero, vader and myself all agreed that they would all be official moderators
Vader: yo
umbreon_dan: i only consulted the active server moderators
Vader: who?
tennisace: so three moderators
tennisace: out of how many
Rayquaza2233!~broheim@why.read.this left the room. (Quit: ^)
umbreon_dan: three out of three active moderators
umbreon_dan: ie. the ones who are best informed
umbreon_dan: together, reachzero, vader and myself did 99 % of the cap server moderation
Rising_Dusk: Yanno, though, that's not really how the process works for the SU server.
umbreon_dan: i don't see any reason why we would need approval from anybody else
Rising_Dusk: I'm not sure on what assumption that would be the process for the CAP server.
reachzero: which guys do you object to?
tennisace: all of them
umbreon_dan: lol
reachzero: you know them to be problematic users?
tennisace: since i only asked that they be modded temporarily
tennisace: since we don't have enough traffic normally
tennisace: and they all had drivers

Rising_Dusk: I have to agree with tennis, really. We currently have more mods on than users.
reachzero: what I kindof don't get is
Rising_Dusk: And since SU's been back, it's pretty consistently that way.
reachzero: "how does this make a difference, really?"
reachzero: how are we hurt by this?
Rising_Dusk: We reaally shouldn't just mod everyone we know is a good user.
umbreon_dan: agreed, i don't have a problem with an excess of moderators
reachzero: unless one or more of them are known to be irresponsible
macle: on su, jump gives mods to people he likes
umbreon_dan: especially since the other option is to actually take mods AWAY
macle!macle@a.heart.dont.forget.something.like.that left the room. (Quit: )
umbreon_dan: which i have a serious problem with
Rising_Dusk: To be fair, they were cc'd on the PM between doug and tennis.
Rising_Dusk: So they knew it was temporary.
umbreon_dan: to be fair
umbreon_dan: I WASN'T CCed
Rising_Dusk: That's because it didn't pertain to you.
tennisace: exactly
umbreon_dan: yes, it did?
umbreon_dan: well then this doesn't pertain to tennisace
tennisace: it was meant to be until the smogon server went up
Sledge|away!~Sledge@synIRC-BF57CE33.hsd1.ut.comcast.net left the room. (Quit: )
tennisace: unfortunately it does pertain to me
Rising_Dusk: I'd be OK with one or two of them tops becoming mods permanently.
Rising_Dusk: But not all of them.
tennisace: because i'm a server moderator that wasn't included in a "formal" moderator nomination
umbreon_dan: because you weren't active
umbreon_dan: we didn't go looking for KoA or bass either
10:54 PM
umbreon_dan: if you had a genuine interest in the server community, you would be there with us, moderating
umbreon_dan: instead you're just trying to control everything
tennisace: i'm sorry, i actually have a life
umbreon_dan: hahahahahaah
umbreon_dan: alright
umbreon_dan: so you think that you "having a life" excuses you from your moderation responsibilities?
umbreon_dan: and yet
Rising_Dusk: Actually, his moderator responsibilities are to the forum.
umbreon_dan: you still get to make the rules?
tennisace: what authority do you have to grill me on what my responsibilities are or arent
Rising_Dusk: The server just comes with that not as an obligation, but as a complement.
umbreon_dan: his moderation responsibilities are wherever he is a moderator, rd
Rising_Dusk: If he's on, he's a forum mod, so he has server mod status.
thoughts: of you kids
thoughts: what's going on
umbreon_dan: he was a server mod long before he was a forum mod rd
Rising_Dusk: Yes, and had he not become a forum mod, he 100% would've lost his server mods.
Rising_Dusk: Because of activity.
Rising_Dusk: But that he is a forum mod automatically makes him a server mod.
umbreon_dan: koa and fuzznip and bass haven't
Rising_Dusk: That is how it works.
umbreon_dan: so i really don't think so
tennisace: you aren't helping my case bro
Vader: stop this senseless violence
Vader: ):
umbreon_dAFK: yeah i don't want to talk to you
thoughts: rd
umbreon_dan is now known as umbreon_dAFK.
Deck_Knight: did someone reference senselessness?
tennisace: anyway i don't have to justify myself
Deck_Knight: And UD not having it?
thoughts: don't make me count to 3 kids
thoughts: ._.
10:58 PM
thoughts: good
Rising_Dusk: To me, this whole situation seems really obvious.
Rising_Dusk: But whatev'.
