Until you become a Mod,it really is difficult to know just how much effort it takes.
We make mistake sometimes.I have been known to post a thread in the wrong area as well as go off Topic. We aren't perfect'but I think we do a good job.I have seen Mods spam as well as veterans and legends.Guess what? We are human.

I admin a site for a clan. It is really active and takes a lot of effort to keep up. Certain members have to be put in certain groups. Certain posts have to be put in certain places. You have to do so much reviewing of threads and posts that you feel like tearing your eyes out. New skins and color schemes have to be made. Just a buch of stuff in order to keep up a forum. It's not like a web page, it is a lot more difficult and requires a lot of attention.

It's not information from the secret espionage spies that are part of your secret government and speak your secret language is it?

No need to start bickering about this. I would like to keep this thread alive as it has useful information in it.To bad it has some pointless posts as well.These I didn't delete to keep the flow of the dissemination of information intact.I personally would like to know who all has actually been/are a Mod at another site.If you have I would like to also know which site and the number of members.This is relevant to how difficult Modding is.D2 is a massive active site with many members as well as forums and sub-forums.We have our work cut out for us to say the least.If you are knowedgable...speak up.Many of you(yes I noticed) help out from the sidelines.
That is why reporting posts is vital to our being able to take care of problems.
We know that personality issues occure.This however is no reason to be abusive...and I mean ROUTINELY to other members.Its is also not a reason to throw the rules out of the window because A.)You just don't like that asshole B.) you want to increase your post count. C.) You have this insane need to post short barely relevant comments after EVERY SINGLE POST! [/rant]

i felt really sorry for you guys when the spambots came, i modded a clan forum that was attacked by spambots posting images from ...lemonparty (shudder). the worst thing was that the dumbass admin decided to have it so guests could post without signing up, and i didnt have the power to IP ban. >.<

IP banning is great, I have to PM Froggy and request it.Oddly enough I was on MSN with Tap when all that started.He said"Holy shit Pam!,We are being attacked! Get your ass on the forum...like NOW!"
I started looking and went...*Oh holy hell* It was a bit of work to correct THAT is for sure!

Really? I managed to obliterate the last attack in ~15 seconds. Open up New Posts tab, tick boxes, go to the bottom, choose Delete, and *BAM* the moron's work has been pulverized in less than a quarter of a minute.

Yeah I was on during the first two "attack"'s, after that I was like I've had enough, idk how many more waves there are going to be, and I'm sure by now some other mods have noticed this.

I quit being a mod here because of PMs...I didn't find the job hard but I did find clearing out my PM box every day to be annoying as Hell. Then, since I was foolish enough to leave my messenger names public as well as e-mail i was pretty much overwhelmed there listening to nothing but forum issues. Pam, i gotta say I salute you for putting up with it the way you do.
