Yep you can do that, I did it to... Simple people are spaming in your Topic: Close it and just open it when it's the time. Like: You created the OFP Combat Photo graphy....Well You can close it if you want and re-open it later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Frenchman 0 Posted October 1, 2003 I dont think admins (and avonlady) should have postcounts. They only give people targets of what to acheive, and if it is (practically) unacheivable they will spam loads to try and acheive it. I only want a post count so the mods see I have been here a long time so Placebo can give me a fricken title. ( I am still waiting. (J/K) ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Frenchman 0 Posted October 4, 2003 You guys talk to much. Be quiet or I will smite your post counts. ......Then would I get a title? ********************************* Ok, ok, dont ban me I have a real question. Does a member loses it's chance to be a mod if that person has a flaming history, banned before or has one or more warning levels? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted October 4, 2003 we look at many different aspects of the member and decide. there are many variables. i prefer that we do not talk about how to systemize a mod seletion procedure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted October 6, 2003 How is this advice mods: Quote[/b] ]Do not speak ill, speak only good. Do not say evil things, speak well of people. He who speaks ill and says evil---people will waylay him because of his debt to Suma. Do not talk too freely, watch what you say. Do not express your innermost thoughts even when you are alone. What you say in haste you may regret later. Exert yourself to restrain your speech. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 6, 2003 Well, I once got some good advice after I sent a rather nasty email to a business supplier, which ended up causing some inter-company problems - and I think it would apply almost equally as well here: Never send an email to someone when you're pissed off with them. Wait a day, and then send your email. You will find that what you email them will be a lot more rational and less offensive if you don't write it while you're pissed off. (P.S. Working in the Mobile-phone {Cellphone} industry can turn a meek mild rational man into a bloodthirsty maniac ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(<span id='ME'><center>waffendennis : Look's at his own profile and see no warnings or some thing</center></span>) Well that is it for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow 6 Posted October 7, 2003 We usually recruit good behaving normal people as mods. Only Mr Panda here and Hellfish are the exception. Hey, a rule has always an exception, right? Seriously, we don't discuss in public the criterias for becoming a mod. We would'nt want half the community get brown noses would we? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just PR'ed temporarily I seriouly dont know so dont take it as a joke and i havent read the wholetopic sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 9, 2003 Once you have 5 boxes, you cannot post anymore. Whether it is permanent or temporary is up to the mods, based on the severity of what you did to earn those boxes. The mods might also, at their discression, eventually remove boxes for good behaviour. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
