Oh really? Then why was the forum such a headache for richard? if the moderators had of done a great job there wouldn't be a problem.jd wrote:The Moderators did do an excellent job there
I have to disagree with this argument of yours. I don't know how much you've read, but from what I've seen it was a mix of factors. In my opinion the mods did the best they could and Josh should take most of the blame, from the genesis of the problem to its disgusting conclusion.Fred Kite wrote:Oh really?

Yes, really. You would know this if you knew anything about those forums.Fred Kite wrote:jd wrote:The Moderators did do an excellent job thereFred Kite wrote:Oh really?
Because the website owner knows nothing about Web 2.0 and completely disregards it! Why is this so difficult for you to understand?Fred Kite wrote:Then why was the forum such a headache for richard?
Incorrect, but so has been almost everything you've said here, so good job at being consistent.Fred Kite wrote:if the moderators had of done a great job there wouldn't be a problem.

Bye.

If you want to know why people aren't really liking you much, you might reflect that you continue to belittle the thousands of hours of tireless and unpaid work the mods for Dawkins' contributed to that site only to be completely erased by Dawkins' IT monkey. Why not go ask your 'psychology pal' about that aspect to your behaviour, he might be able to diagnose you off-the-cuff as well.
They did, though. In their spare time. Without pay or, often, acknowledgment from the top.Fred Kite wrote:Richard dawkins said, before the kerfuffle that he wanted to eradicate the sort of bile that was appearing on the forum...the sort of bile that moderators were supposed to clean up and moderate.
what's with the childish sarcasm?tytalus wrote:Well, now it all makes sense. It was a site for fans of Richard Dawkins. It was demolished for failure to be mere fandom, and will now be returned to that state, as is his right.
Thanks Fred, I'll try to be less vicious, vindictive, rabid and whining in the future. After all, that's what a True Atheist would do. You're quite right; they wouldn't insult a flea.
The original decision to change the system was not based on "problematic" behaviour of users, but simply the cost of maintainance, since the huge number of users and the volume of traffic was an indication of the success of the boards (and of the moderation).Fred Kite wrote:Oh really?

Okums razor stuff, ED209. if the moderators had of kept the forum civil, richard would have been delighted with it.
I didn't come in here to be liked. I came in here to voice my opinion. if you don't agree with that. Fine. That's all well and good. but to disagree and then throw insults at me is precisely the sort of bile that richard dawkins didn't like.
