Who would like to see handpicked forum users as moderators

[Nemesis]

I agree - it works on another forum I use. It's sad as sometimes people want an immedaite answer to a question, but if it's the only way...

There are still porn links in some posts, no doubt they will vanish in time.

(Maybe I should check them out and report on what we are all missing? Or will I be shocked...)

will I be shocked...)

Not unless Christina Aguilera has uPVC windows.

However, I very much doubt whether it would be possible for them to be given the authority to do this only.

It's not physically possible to give power to just delete one type of post, it is down to trust to only do that.

:lol: :lol:

I suspect that will be quite a bit of plastic and silicone in some of things those posts pointed to.

Superb Mark, so long as we can still take it in this fashion we have hope to remain a community.

making the policy to remove spam only clear upfront means any other deletions and the mod will no longer be a mod. Sounds good to me.

If the admins might have cured the problem, I'm quite happy to wait and see.

I don't suppose anybody will disagree with the removal of certain spam.

I'm not in favour of general moderation though. Given a delete button there are many threads I would have zapped in the past - which would not necessarily have been popular in all quarters.

If I trust some of the people here to give advice about expensive alterations, restoration and choices of materials, I think I can probably trust them to delete Britney Spears.

Let's leave it to Rob and Simon, eh?

They seem to have it sorted... as ever.

 

[Nemesis]

I see newly registered...

Let's see if any posts get past Simon and Rob.

 

[skier-hughes]

When people register their name gets shown on the register of members, but they can't post until they have been authorised as a full member by Rob or Simon.
They will either not authorise and the member stays in view but unable to post, or delete the membeship and the name disappears from the lsit.

 

[Nemesis]

Exactly. They are on the case and it seems so far to be working.

 

[skier-hughes]

Certainly is.
