Please welcome our two new VC&G mods, Rvenger and elfear

[96Firebird]

Welcome, and good luck!

Sometimes I see warnings for infractions, and a citation to a particular infraction. Is there a handy list explaining those types of infractions?

I think one is calling out someone, and another is, ah, forget the term, but it's where the person just doesn't add value to the discussion, thread crapping?

I want to see definitions for those and whatever else may cause infractions, because sometimes I worry about accidentally violating one (but I never have been cited before), and I'm not sure what others are out there to violate?

There really ought to be a safe harbor provision where you are exempt from infractions if you speak the truth. Like what if someone really IS a ____ and you call them a ____? It should be like defamation/libel where truth is a defense. Example: if someone call a guy a thief, and he really does steal for a living, then that someone should be immune to prosecution. It's probably not administrable, though. Oh well.







This is a welcome thread. If you have issues with the rules and moderation, create an MD thread.

I trust Esquared and Perk, as well as the established VC&G moderators, in their judgment as far as nominating new mods.

There is a lot of boundry-testing going on since the seasoned mods have stepped back. I know once you guys get your bearings on your new thankless job, you will pick up the slack.

Good luck boys!

Welcome guys. Please stomp on the trolls. I really hate the ones that try to claim to be impartial, but you see they really just lean one way.

 

[crisium]

Glad to have you on board. I find some trolls to be cute and funny, but too often they are obnoxious. I hope you guys can discipline them to be just right.

 

[guskline]

Congrats to both of you. Rvenger, where is that R9 290?

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

[BoFox]

Congrats, Rvenger and elfear! You guys make great posts here and it's always a good thing to have a moderator that has a lot of fire in participating in thread discussions!

[Will Robinson]

I would've posted earlier in the thread but...er...we've already met...um privately.:wub:

[Fa11acy]

welcomeeeee

 

[Keysplayr]

Grats on the Promotion both of you. Hopefuly you guys can keep the trolls at bay

I don't think congrats is in order. It's a thankless, paralyzing job where with current guidelines is near impossible to have any positive effect. Spinning wheels.

So, while I won't congratulate them, I will pray for them and wish them luck!!

 

[SlowSpyder]

Good luck.

 

[Rvenger]

Congrats to both of you. Rvenger, where is that R9 290?
