The OTF is constintly suffering from people posting duplicate threads or other against the rule posts. Current Moderators seem reluctant to do anything about it and it's always the same people. Threads can be closed but it has little effect on similar ones being opened in the future.

When will something be doen about this! I personallythink that at least one new Mod should be appointed to look after the OTF because, as disrespectful as it seems I don't think Storm can do it all on her own and she isn't alawys here. KEN4Mod

Storm
The irony of it is that members are bitterly complaining, yet are unwilling to take their responsibility by reporting threads. The majority of duplicate threads I either merge, or close, and troublesome threads I deal with, are unreported.

WrathfulDwarf
Those future threads will also be closed.

Grand Moff Gav
While I do try and report my fair share Storm i don't think it seems to have any effect at all. For every thread you close twelve more appear which deserved to be closed!

And more will be opened and so forth. I do not try to say that the Mods are doing a bad job I am saying that they're not doing enough. While it is a last resort perhaps Banning is in order!

So then report them!

I personally report everything I see in the OTF that shouldn't be there or is breaking rules....though I don't post there as much as I used to.

And we will close those as well. Simple...

Grand Moff Gav
And more will open and people will grow tired of reporting these threads and will stop posting in the OTF (like Lana) then the OTF will be filled with threads which deserved to be closed! Look at the Mafia thread! RP or not just look at it's content!

And if it is so bad, Why didn't you take the time to report it?

Grand Moff Gav
DW I started a thread on it being an RP and thats why it should be closed. I reported bashing in it and I PM'd Ush and Backfire about it!

Making a thread and complaining only makes it worse!

DW asked why didn't I take time to report the Mafia RP. I showed him one of my anti-mafia threads.(Didn't spam though!)

So? Making a thread about it isn't going to help matters. Reporting it will.

Used it...on a few seperate occasions! Ush and Backfire's reply was quite simple. Ush doesn't want them clamming up his domain so he's leaving them on Storm's patch!

Then ignore it. Thats about all Ush tells s to do with the state of the OTF.

Grand Moff Gav
We have a guy like that on these forums...whats his name....WindDancer!

dave123
I believe there is only one man who is on KMC enough.

One man who is fast enough in his replies.

One man who, no matter how much you talk to him, will always have his own opinion on things.

Which is why, comrades, I propose Tiny Tim lead the Fight for OTF.

Grand Moff Gav
Storm is leading the fight...but she needs an ally...a poor deluded soul who actually thinks being a Mod brings you respect and authority....a person who has moded before...

Then why you posted the link? Do you have point to all this?

dave123
Nah, it's all about Tim and his random AI stick out tongue We could rig it up so he instantly bans any member that misspells KMC or something eek!

DW said I sghould have reported it. I did. I also wanted to let him know that I have taken other steps to getting someone to do somthing about that thread. Which just shouldn't be there. I urge you to close it WD. Look at what it's about.

GMG, you have already been given a ruling, by two different mods, clearly stated, about that mafia thread.

These complaints following that are bordering on contemptible. That matter is dealt with and we do not agree with you. Live with it- do not keep moaning about it.

There will be no moderator for the OTF. Raz has stated this on many occasions. Nor will quality control be applied. The purpose of the OTF is to keep all the rubbish in there. Quality control only gets applied in other areas.

The matter should have been left at a report and nothing more. The basic point remains. Use the report system. Don't start moaning like this just because mods don't agree with you- which is the actual reason for you complaining.

dave123
Look, just give me the power to perm-ban for 3 minutes, that's all we need wink

It was Raz who told me to start this thread.

I accept your ruling on the Mafia. It wont be closed ok. Fine. However the rest ofteh OTF is still there.

Daves back! eek!

dave123
Or so the rumours say...

Ushgarak
Well, then where are you going with this, GMG?

If you are claiming that the OTF is getting filled with threads that do not belong there... then you know the mods do not agree so that is going nowhere, even if there were many of them, which there are not.

If your complaint is that mods do not close totally pointless threads, then that is simply untrue, they get closed in there all the time. If they get reported, they will get closed, it is that easy. What you mean is they don't close the threads that you want closed. Well, your opinion is not a criteria, I am afraid.

If your complaint is that the OTF is full of rubbish... then that is the idea.

dave123
I think we both know that's not true stick out tongue

Back when I was in the mod lounge, I specifically remember our objectives:

#1 Confidential ninja
#2 Close all threads GMG wishes were closed
#3 All porn posted on the boards gets sent to the secret "porn forum"

U make me feel so much better Dave.

I think BF stole most of that place.

dave123
In all fairness, it was his idea yes

Lana
Well, it IS BF.

DarkWizard
We have a Pron Forum!? eek!!

dave123
Go to page 124 of the OTF, then scroll down to the bottom wink

DarkWizard
I SEE NOTHING!!!! sad

That was before I left... I would imagine it's gone back quite a few pages now erm

K.Diddy
I dont see what the big deal is,I think the mod's do quite a good job with the OTF, and if they closed everything and banned everyone reported it would get a little too strict, as after all the ''off topic'' IS the rubbish bin of Kmc.........So I think it should be left as it is and Storm seems to close the threads that need to be closed.......

If you dont like it in there, simply dont post in there.

H. S. 6
Best thing you can do is Report, I suppose. Remember: the OTF is there just for that purpose (to be OT).

What do you want?

Don't post there anymore, or deal with it. If it's intelligent conversations you want, try the GDF. erm
