I also have no idea what spooky meant by the typo comment. Maybe he'll explain.

Then admins and mods can post important administrative stuff using that login, and any b/s that the posters who happen to be admins and mods post in their capacity as just another poster can be ignored.

Just a suggestion.
Alternate suggestion - Why don't you create your own Board with your own rules or just go the fuck back to Infirm?

Uh, the "can't ignore admins or mods" feature had been deliberately turned off. I was trying to come up with something that would minimize bitching and make everyone happy. Because I thought this place's regime was slightly less totalitarian than the old board.

Boy, you are like the living embodiment of how people with power start getting freaky and abusive.

That will be a good day.
I forgot about the commercial, you're right the song is tainted. I liked it because I've had it double in the ear before, but what's ruined is ruined.

Actually, it was switched off without most of our knowledge and in contravention of the TOS, so if anything, we are merely restoring the status quo.

And only two people wanted the feature disabled in the first place. Guess the 2.

Ooooooookay, sorry I do not have full knowledge of all admin things. Jesus. Yank the supersized buttplug out, it's making you crabby.

ETA I find it a little hard to believe no one else enjoys the ability to ignore Sebby, but if you say so, it must be so.

Personally, it's Rho Rho Rho I can't stand. Every year at the Talent Show it's the same old thing. Same stupid song. Same stupid play on words. I hate them.

I'm not going to get into the pissing match, but there are a number of reasons, both technical and pragmatic, why we can't just make one mod login or one admin login.

For example, we have a logging system which logs all admin and mod activity. If something happens, i.e. a post gets deleted or a user is banned, or whatever, and it was done improperly, we want to be able to look at our logs to see who did it. If we have one general login, there is no way to tell who did what.

Additionally, some people moderate more than one forum, but not all forums. We set indiviudal mod privileges per account. That is the only way we can do it.

This really isn't up for discussion. There were only three people ignoring admins, and each person was ignoring a different admin. Since the admins being ignored rarely post, those people will have to endure a minor inconvenience going forward. Mods can still be ignored, you just have to PM me (I'm the only one who knows how to add it to the database) and I will do it for you, no questions asked and with absolute confidentiality.

There's TOS? Who reads that? Dry, dry, dry. Not enough tit talk. I may as well be working.
