Now that I think did the mods ban the guy who creted the war is good thread? That was criminal, he was saying that who kills small children and innocent population is a hero.
Who? ChristianPatriot? Ya, he got perma-banned and deleted. There a couple trolls out there, and he was by far the worst. He made my blood boil on more than one occasion, and probably other peoples too.

This means that justice isn't that blind.
If you don't like the site, just leave. Some of us might actually like the site, even if we've been here for a million years...
and if your complaining about the features, armorgames is only 1 and a half years old, it's not fully developed yet. Plus, nothing's perfect.

Once I stopped taking him seriously I thought he was pretty funny, lol. A bit of a shame that he got banned, but not really.
Except me.
*COUGH*...
*shakes head*

Exactly, I like the site. It may have a few bad users, but its a good site. Just very quiet.

Only sometimes, sometimes you can't make a post without getting ninja'd twice.
I myself love this site. I like it so much it's my homepage, but it's got WAY to many ghosts and comment spammers.

I'm more bothered by the quietness of the forums. It's barely active.
Plus, most of my old friends have quit, there's almost no-one here that I really know well :P
Alot of the people I started with are no longer here.
But on a sidenote.
Holy Canoli Batman, Firetail-madness is alive!
Or I just haven't seen him at all.
And actually be interested in this site.
Dedication to AG is one of the important features of moderators on here.
Can't just haul any intelligent and mature kids with time on their hands in.
That's just it, we're not hauling them in. Most people who become moderators are interested in the site, correct? We would measure the components of a moderator like this.
-User Activity
-Responsibility
-Reliability
-Interest in Armor Games
People could add on other things to judge by if they want, these are just off the top of my head. User Activity is a must, we need mods that have more time to find and stop spam. Responsibility is needed from every good worker. The mod also has to be reliable, we have to be able to trust someone to delete spam and not a hundred pages of help. The potential moderator(s) would have to have an interest in the good of Armor Games. These are things you could look for when you find someone that might make a good moderator.
I think Cenere would make a great mod personally. One more thing to add to that list is grammar. We could have the most reliable person on the site, but their grammar might make them hard to understand.
I suppose maturity = responsibility + reliability
Activeness doesn't play a big part in becoming a mod, or maybe they just become less active after becoming a mod o.o
And I'm now considering quitting the site, this forum as become crappy. With those ****ty threads, polls, what do you hate, what d you like, clubs. Disgusting.Fleeing solves nothing. It just means you give up.
Of course, since this is a flash game site, giving up on really isn't a big deal. But honestly, making statements like that doesn't help anything.
How???? Flaming those b-tards, telling them not to post crappy threads ~?Try informing them of the rules in a polite way. If they flame you for doing so, contact a mod. That way we should get a lot of crappy posters who'll resort to flaming weeded out. Thus fewer issues with them
[quote]Do you wont those guys to do what they want? Do you want ignorant and fascist persons rule even a Game-website
I don't, but if I complain by saying, your threads sucks, this is bull****, stop with it, ~I'm breaking the rules. At least, that's what mods tell us to do.

Intelligent discussion. They are entitled to their views, and you are entitled to argue that they are wrong.
There is no reason to flame. If a statement is blatantly stupid, you can whoop their butts with factual posting and reasonable arguments.
There's no friggin NEED to break the rules to fight spammers, idiots and flamers. How the heck do you think we handle it? By banning on sight? No. Intelligent discussion really needs to be encouraged more. And used more.
My opinion would to make 'minimods' if you will. People who are on a lot and who contribute to the community. You wouldn't give them full mod powers, but just the ability to delete spam posts but not lock threads, ban people, etc. That would add a little something to the community.Just deleting spam posts doesn't really do anything.
What we need are regular members to add a but more responsibly.
I don't care who wins or looses. I want to spend my time, not waste it.If AG frustrates you so much, leave. Yapping about "I wanna quuuuuuuit" only makes things worse.
Anyway, I forgot something, another thing that would help is to add in the rules to not post in noobish. And at least TRY to have decent grammar.There are quite a few things missing from the rules currently. It is being taken care of. They'll be updated. Not sure that one is gonna be implemented, but a note might get added somewhere. Who knows.
I myself love this site. I like it so much it's my homepage, but it's got WAY to many ghosts and comment spammers.Qft. Sadly. :<

We would measure the components of a moderator like this.But Kipdon, those are already part of what we look for in future moderators. You are not suggesting anything that isn't already taking place.

We do not look for age specifically, we look for the behaviour pattern all together. Including activity. If a responsible and mod-qualified person is not active enough, he/she doesn't get chosen. When someone has been chosen as a mod and after a while can't stay as active as before, that's just life.
Activeness doesn't play a big part in becoming a mod, or maybe they just become less active after becoming a mod o.oI've been a lot less responsive to profile comment chatter, but aside from that stayed just as active. I think NoName might have been more active as a mod, but then again I joined shortly before he became one, so I'm not sure.
In general, though, activity is definitely also something that's looked for. Remember that you do far from always realize when a mod is on. We don't always post.

It just seems that some of the mods are a lot less inactive now, like ubertuna and dank, but I guess your right.
Just deleting spam posts doesn't really do anything.

Add a bit more responsibility or act a bit more responsibly?
i agree. i think this site has become a bit dull, and i haven't been in for very long!
my suggestion is try kongregate, it has more freedom and more things to do.
if not, i suggest just quit flash gaming all together.
Yes, I have no life.
That's actually decently well summed up.
Don't worry your not alone.
NEW MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO BE IN PLACE
I don't understand where your coming from. ArmorGames is a great way to play games, chat and meet new people, and help people who are new to the site. I think I see why you think ArmorGames needs new managment. Maybe it's because many moderators, like you said here:
and why is it that mods are only one short times?They aren't on much because, yes, they have lives, (Zega, thanks for putting that out there) and need to go on with that too. The site isn't going to DIE. It just needs a little improvment. You can't make everything as great as... well, PIE!: )
Really, what do you mean with this? What would your visionary plan for the site be?
Agreed. What do you think needs to be improved or upgraded? Theres one thing I think that needs a little more pazazz, THE AMOUNT OF MULTIPLAYER GAMES. I posted a forum on this awhile back, maybe four-five monthes ago. Seems I lost it...
but i still think that more people should be responsible for AG
Hmmm... are you suggesting that more administrators are needed? I don't think they are. There's a reason why I say this. I said this before too, I think the site is great! lots of things to do. If your not happy, then why do you come here? Not to be a brat about that, by the way.
Enough said.
