I like the open reports threads, in fact the only thing I'd change would be that they not be anonymous anymore, which would also (I think) cut down on a lot of the spite reports.
tulc(just a suggestion)

I'd like that too...I do like the open threads. I do think, however, that I'll end up being outvoted.

I guess I'm in the minority that never really had a problem with them...then again Theology wasn't always a hothouse like Support and ET.

Ahhh! If it's Doc Erwin I have no problem with it. Are you sure that's who decides?

Aww, Steve. I can set us up with somebody if you'd like to try reconciliation.

I'd settle for you dropping your vendetta against [me] and leaving CC forum alone, Madam SuperAdministrator

I haven't posted there in a bit, drstevej. I don't intend to any time soon. It would be really great if you all would stop posting about me, though.

My point is you do not have a history of neutrality. That is an issue of qualifications directly related to your position.

Steve

...someone who has 108 posts on CF is in charge?
tulc(going to pop some pop corn and make a BIG pot of coffee)

Only 108 posts but 100% ownership of the site. That clearly qualifies him.

I have reread some posts and I also have some reservation of not allowing the subforums to have elections for their Mod's.

I see that as a positive action and to take that away leaves the door open to issues.

Of course, I am also willing to see how this plays out.

I think the fact that this forum is in utter chaos and infighting is pretty good proof that you can have thousands of posts (ie. erwin) and be in charge and cause alot of conflict and confusion.

Number of posts mean nothing - in fact, maybe he did more reading than posting to analyze all the hotbeds around here.
Hopefully he can deal with some of it better than someone else did (who had many posts)

If you don't think I'm qualified, then take it up with Lee. That's not what this thread is for.

I hope private staff forums aren't permanent. One of the great changes Erwin made was removing the veil of secrecy. lets not take a step backwards in that department.




Open staff forums/reports was an excellent idea; what (examples) needs to be discussed that must be done in private?




I am absolutely opposed to reports being made private.

Steve has Lee had IIDB and ~E~lsewher explained to him and what it represents? That might be useful information for him.

Do tell, what does it represent? Though I am sure that LeeD being a web entrepreneur in online forum life is well aware of IIDB and its market.

Like anything else in life, it is what you make it.



I'd like that too...I do like the open threads. I do think, however, that I'll end up being outvoted.

I don’t think you are in the minority Tonks.

I agree. Erwin had a lot of posts, but this place still ended up being a clearinghouse for every false doctrine under the sun, and a place where the moderators abused their authority with no accountability.

I don't know the new guy, but it's hard to imagine that he could be any worse.
