how to be a good mod

[freya]

here is just some things i've decided to mention to keep the riots from ripping you apart.

- do not delete a thread UNLESS you have a good reason. Reasoning: bashes my boards.

- move a thread if: it has lack of relevancy to the board it's in.

- do not lock a thread unless the topic gets too out of control.

- don't act like you're a mod from JS (just saying, guys).

those are just some basic standards to keep members from saying the site is over-moderated, cause it's not. i am trying to get that rumor to end.

Sign you're not a good mod: you need a guide to tell you how to be a good mod... LOL.

I'd add, temper your actions based on the INTENSITY of the attack- not the opinion of the attacker. I guess I'm saying a topic bursts into a flame war- side with the person who's conducting themselves in a mature adult fashion, even if you personally AGREE with the other guy, lol. I'm not referencing anything in particular, cause any thread closings/locks occurred when I wasn't paying attention, so I don't REALLY know what this is about anyway, lol.

They gotta learn somewhere, right?

I think Emix is the awesomest, super-coolest, omega-est mod ever. I am going to dedicate a whole thread to how awesome Emix is.
