To the Mods

[BPTactical]

Now I know the majority here pretty much have a certain amount of animosity for the Mods here. Some earned and some perceived.
They work a duty that they don't receive any compensation for, long hours, lots of abuse and nary a thanks.

But this morning the sight was hit hard by Sir Spamalot and his fat dog food posts. Almost every section of the forum was nailed by this clown.
The Mods jumped on them pretty quickly and cleaned it up.


Just a kudos and thanks to the Mods for the thankless job they do and a "Well Done" for cleaning up the mess.

I love the mods- they're like Greek Gods to me. Stand aside Zeus and Apollo!!!

Except that I just noticed I lost like 200 posts this morning!

[TFOGGER]

+1 Thanks! About as thankless a job as there is. Except for rodeo clown or taser test subject.

By the way, Great job to the Mods.

[Drilldov2.0]

Actually I think the mods here do great work. They have helped me out quickly when I needed it and don't seem to think they are above anyone else here as so many mods on other boards do.

They must be excellent mods, I mean, they haven't even put me in timeout yet!

[sniper7]

so you mean those links were bad?

[WillysWagon]

Those posts were EVERYWHERE, some threads had 3-4 of them.
Makes you wish you could reach through the comp and smack them [Stick]

The MODS here are adults who act like adults. PM if you would like to be introduced control freak b1tches.
This is the best site. No ifs, ands or buts.[Beer]

Agreed with all of it but this part... I think those that have a problem with the mods here are in the minority...

overall, they're really easy to get along with & do a bang-up job...

+1 to the mods. Thanks for all you do guys!

And I thank all of you for your appreciation and understanding as well.

While some of our efforts draw a fair amount of ire and contempt, EVERYTHING we do is really an effort to make this site as awesome as we can for every one of our members - no exceptions. Getting b!tched at is an expected pat of the job but it means a LOT to us when folks let us know we're doing it right.

What most of you are not aware of is that we usually get at least 5 spam accounts creted a day (sometimes up to 15). We can usually catch and ban most of these accounts right away, but sometimes (especially in the wee hours) they get through and post everything they can before we find 'em and stop 'em. I just deleted another thread from our most recent new member/spammer who came to us out of Odintsovo, Russian Federation.

Each time I log in the first thing I do is look through the new members and verify their locations against their IP addresses. This time I found the spammer I mentioned above and another from Singapore (banned). It gets tricky when the spammer is coming from somewhere in the U.S. and their account LOOKS legit. The spambots have gotten wise and will often wait a couple of weeks before the posting storm begins (sneaky little buggers; ain't they?).

Anyway, thanks again for recognizing our efforts and understanding that every once in a while they catch us unprepared.

Hey, I know you're doing your part, but I have to keep peace here @ home too. [Beer]

[BuffCyclist]

I logged on towards the end of a 16hr observing shift, hoping to have somethign to read and keep me awake. I saw like 30 active threads and was excited!


...


Then I notice it was a spammer in Lithuania and got sad. :(

Please help keep me awake tonight COAR15, theres a big snow storm rolling in and we might not open at all tonight, which makes the night even slower than normal. At least its my last shift, then I don't work again until the 19th! :D

But to stay on topic, the mods do a great job here and they definitely work for the better of the forum. Thanks! :D
