De-mod FTL.

Mods who abuse their powers don't deserve to be mods. Period.

I'm sure FTL is well aware of the repercussions of his previous actions and will treat future action with closer consideration before implementation. Besides, as of now, I'm not aware of any current issues existing with FTL.

I had a very bad transaction with Japangamesnow in the past(waited more than 3 months to get my stuff).
Other people had same issues.

Now,another member has the same problem with the same online shop and that is enough to warn possible buyers about it,since it is an online shop.

A word of suggestion for you Qube:keep your insults in the warrom,thanks.

Here is a link to the thread where it is perfectly clear one member has been waiting his refund for too many weeks:

I don't know if demodding FTL would help to this whole thing,
one thing is sure, we do need a mod who can really lay down
the law on people. We have rules that need to be followed,
and none of that has happened here in quite a while. We have
way too many roms threads everywhere, countless fake accounts,
many non-active members, lots of violations in the market place etc..
Oh, and I'm not suggesting I should be a mod because if that
happens, lots of members would have to find a new home for sure.
But again, we do need someone who can really have some control
of the forums, someone neutral to all.
Most of the current mods we have are a sorry excuse
for mods. Nothing personal against any of them either, they just
don't seem to do anything in General.

Agreed. The problem is that many of the mods are not on the forum very much.



Hey! Make me a mod:D

About you ppls' mod critics, as far as I'm concerned, I'm logged into ng.com every day, I just don't post nearly half as much as I used to. Just because you don't see our names in who's online doesn't mean we're not here, you know.

Look who's talking... Jorge, is there are really urgent problem? No. Lots of fake accounts and spammers? Yes, as usual, but we close/ban/delete them by the dozen every month so it's not that we'd stand there with our hands in our pockets, it's just that the stream of bots, spammers, scammers and idiots never ends - there's no surefire method to get rid of all that trash, otherwise we had implemented it years ago already. Your banhammer-swinging trigger-happy style wouldn't change that one bit, it would only make things worse because you'd piss off lots of regular users in the process which in the end is too high a price for a couple of measly bans.

"They don't do anything in general", pfff... no, we don't play fanfares for every bit of moderation/disciplinary action, maybe we should ask Mouse Master to code a Mod Efficiency Counter for us to make some people happy...

I always somehow respected you, don't make me change my mind.

The mods here are doing fine.

But you see. You are in here, and you do some stuff ok. What about
Biomotor, DolphinLord, Mouse_Master, RyoGeo, BobaKz? I know D-Lite had some personal
problems and other stuff. But I never seen anybody really that active in
here. One thing is to have regular members, another is to tolerate
the shit they start up. Wasabi is usually here, but he allows pretty much
anything. He was supposed to be the mod for what? it was only for one
part of the forums (Don't remember anymore),
but he abused it, and now he does anything he wants, including mixing
Feelgood's account with his, you know the rest... This ain't going to change
so I'm not going to even waste my time anyway.

Wasabi is probably the most active mod here. He is on the boards a lot and handles a lot of the stuff the goes on. D-Lite and Bobak take care of things when needed and while Dean was away for a while (he seems to be back now), Bobak posts a lot.

Other than those three, I really do not know who the other mods are but things seem to run pretty smoothly. Every once in a while there is a big surge of fake accounts and while that does suck, it does create a little entertainment.

FTL is primarily the mod for th einternational section, and since the most international traffic is in the italian section, he's pretty useful. When I abused my power outside the gameplay section, Shawn said stop. I stopped. I probably still get complaints. But hey, I'm not abusing my power. Anyone who complains about my moderation was probably deserving of a temp ban anyways, and I was being generous by just messing with them. You know, give them an inch and then they take your whole dick off. I just try to poke people a little, not fuck the shit out of them. But sometimes people seem to just want a good reaming. That's why I leave them to Bobak.

Leave the nutters/spammers/Weirdos alone it adds a bit of excitement, afterall none of us are here for the Neo anymore!

The current mods do an alright job, you can't demod people like Biomotor, Dolphinlord and RyoGeo these people built the foundations of the site, it would'nt be Neo-Geo.com without them.

Eh, this topic should be locked now.

Shawn addressed my initial post, and things aren't going to change. Que sera sera.

I don't want this to turn into a mod bashing thread, because personally I feel that the other mods here all do a great job, my only problem mod wise is with FTL.

Lock please.

All of these idiots and spammers and shit are funny, for a while now I've come here expecting the next post from Reborned_One because it's entertainment and people get angry including me which then makes it more entertaining. There isn't a problem with how the mods are taking care of this site.

Posting-wise, I see the most out of Wasabi, but that doesn't necessarily mean the other mods aren't doing anything. The bulk of a mod's duties are covert from the regular user's view...and most of it goes unnoticed (like banning bots, fixing bugs, moving around posts, etc.). The more unnoticed it is, the better of a job the mods are doing, and the mods in this forum are doing a great job.

That is pretty much what happens everyday on the boards:tak,bobak,wasabi are very active mods even if you don't see them online all the time.

SNKJorge accusing me of not being around to moderate only demonstrates how little he actually pays attention to the site. :rolleyes:

Hahahahaaaaaahahahaahaha!
