Well, okay. You know that there are those people who spam the site (Don't comment on that, Cen). You know tere are people who are always yelling at the mods, etc. But is it really that bad? You still get to have a fun time on ArmorGames, and the users who use AG well respect them. So do you think it's really that bad?
It would be interesting, but as Skeleton_Pilot says it wouldnt really be "fun". Now i have a very busy life as a am currently working on doing a small dog grooming business, teaching a chess club of 50 kids, and school.
It would be a cool experience though, and would be a good feeling to know you are helping keep spammers, offenders, and absolute idiots off the site. I am very appreciative of all the moderators and administrators out there and i hope they keep doing they're job very well! Good luck guys! -Drag0
However, I wouldn't really want to be in control of millions of users.
We are so not in control lol. Not like that anyway.
All the analogies that liken us to monarchs or leaders aren't as good as comparing us to cops, because that's essentially what we do. I probably stopped being the ninja when I became the semi-retired cop more interested in dunkin' donuts than cuffing perps :P

So do we get to see a drawing of retired Strop?
So on topic: I would be a mod if I had to be and if it would really help the community. You have to do a lot of work though and people look up to you and watch everything you do.
when i said tried i meant submit myself as a candidate
Submitting yourself as a candidate is one of the best ways to remove yourself as a candidate.
Though it would be nice if someone would clean out the game comments regularly.
Taking into consideration, of course, that there are over 2500 games, all of them full of borderline-spam comments that would require a tough decision on whether or not they should be deleted.
Borderline-spam? Most are obvious spam. Yes there are a few ones that could go either way but most you could just delete. Doing that would take forever though and the mods don't have forever.
no. i enjoy this site because i can come and go and socialize as i please. i would not enjoy spending 24/7 listening to spammers and such and not really socializing with people. granted, it does have its perks... like banning annoying people

It's about 50/50, really, and you can't even tell if the borderline ones are borderline until you read them; which, of course, would make this process even longer.
Really it is 50/50. There are many comments that in alot of ways can be considered spam but in alot of ways cant. So this would be a long and difficult task for 8 people(some not even active so more like 6).

Let's just say that mods wouldn't mind cleaning all the games all the time, if people didn't mind having their non-spam comments deleted as well. And their merits. Something, however, tells me that people would be kinda pissy about such a solution.

Do you mean that the only solution to the game comment spam would be the deletion of all game comments?

I think they would, including me. When I say I would get "issy", it's because when I make a game comment, I try to make it non-spam. Spam comments will eventually be deleted, so it's not worth it to make spam comments. Also, if this solution was implemented, there would probably be a lot of starry shields after deletion.

No, I am saying the only possible way the mod staff would bother with keeping all the games clean all the time was if they were allowed to delete all the comments. Basically, this would take time, but it would not take as long as it does keeping even a selected amount of games relatively clean some of the time.
So, yeah. It is a bother to do, it is actually a worse bother to keep up due to some technicalities, and mods tend to start making stabbing motions at their keyboard after a while. A while that might not be long enough to clean a single new game of spam.
