Zhuge Liang is an idiot

[GGFan]

Well today I went on MBH to ask if deleting posts constantly was considered disruptive posting. Everything was fine until Zhuge Liang, GameFAQs moderator, came in. Not exactly known for being the brightest moderator, he noted me IMing moderators to get stuff deleted, making my peaceful topic into something bigger.

He of course, locked the thread so in return I'm posting it here. greatestgamefan is me by the way.

Funny, the moderator I IMd on Sunday moderated everything; if he agreed with what I marked (which never actually got moderated), surely I don't "fail at marking".

So really, maybe if you guys actually did your job, people wouldn't be IMing mods...*shrug*

message detail Okay, so let me get this right...

I come into this topic to tell you to stop IMing mods about random crap you want deleted, yet you think I'm going to add you to my list now? At what point in this conversation did you get the impression that we were buddies? No offense, but no. I don't think so. I'll pass on that.

Again, telling me to stop IMing mods "about random crap" is just plain stupid, because it's usually the only time I get things accomplished. And I think the sarcasm meter exploded. Oh look, the debris is on the debris of the message detail system, which exploded ages ago it seems.

Yeah, I'd get right on being a mod in that channel.

I can see you've been rather sheltered about the whole double standard thing... Welcome to the real world - where double standards are everywhere. Seriously... the marking system seems to work for the majority of our users. Maybe you just can't mark. I don't know.

In the "real world" it's understandable, but telling me that as a result of you and other moderators' inability of doing their job right isn't exactly the smartest thing in the world. And it doesn't always work for me. If you don't like it, stop ignoring marked messages. I can mark, obviously. How the hell could I say it fails if I couldn't mark?

You can do better than this.

message detail You're right. You mark petty crap that most mods don't consider worth deleting, evidently. So your only out is to IM random (okay, maybe not, just mods that put up with it) mods to deal with them because you can't otherwise get them deleted. On another note - perhaps if you didn't constantly troll other users and so forth you wouldn't get all of this undue attention. Just a thought.

Stop this. Please. It's embarrassing.

Obviously not, since the moderator I IMd resulted in a user getting warned and two getting suspended. The other moderator I IMd got a user put in purgatory three times. The mod I usually IM has told me sometimes that what I provide is borderline, and I perfectly accept that. Oh, and I don't troll people, but really, telling me when you're a moderator isn't a smart tactic either.

Also, whether I did troll or not doesn't matter, it isn't a way for you to escape when other people violate the TOS. Hey, what do we call that again kids? Double standards!

Hoor-ay!

See. You're still moaning. Give it up already. Read the TOU and start marking messages that actually, you know, break the TOU then stop complaining when if they just happen to not get deleted. You'll live longer and keep your blood pressure down.

No I'm not. The only people whining are you and the moderator. Deal with it, not everybody is going to blindly agree that message detail has no flaws, not all of us are sheep. And I've marked plenty of messages that were candidates of getting deleted, I just love these cliches. And I'm not angry or anything, but thanks for talking about blood pressure. Maybe if you'd stop, you know, sucking up, you wouldn't be so angsty. A little word of advice from me.

[GGFan]

And Zhuge Liang's final post. Obviously couldn't take the heat so he locked the topic after looking like a big enough idiot. Too bad I have a message board.

A look through your usermap is pretty suggestive otherwise. Purgs, warnings, and other pretty serious infractions. But you don't troll. Right. Good one, chap.

I have one suspension and three warnings on my accounts. One was retarded; it's my fault that my topic started a fad so I should have been warned too? Also, my violations don't prove that I'm a troll, and this was a retarded comeback as it has nothing to do with how accurate my marked messages are. Or are you saying that moderators ignore messages marked by users who have violations in their history? Wow, way to be a bunch of crooked douche bags; no wonder why message detail sucks so much! Good one indeed, dumbfuck

This topic is finished. You got your answer and were told what to do (I would like to re-emphasize that you should MARK them and not whine to some mod on IM about it). I see another topic on this board from you or any of your alts and it'll be the last post it makes for 48 to 72 hours, minimum.

It's finished because you were looking like an idiot, and could only be finished by you locking the topic. I got my answers, answers which I refuted and you never actually responded to. If the messages I mark suck so much, why is it that a moderator deleted them instantly? Why is that when I marked something over four days ago it never got modded, but when I showed the post to a mod it was deleted instantly? Why is it that I what I marked using message detail resulted in one user getting warned and two getting suspended?

Furthermore if I couldn't mark, I couldn't complain about the shittyness of message detail in general. In other words, fuck off. I'll IM mods when message detail continues to fuck up its purpose, which is usually because of idiots like you not wanting to do their jobs. If I was a mod, I'd actually try and do my job instead of making petty excuses like these.

And again, a typical mod cliche. I wasn't whining, rather you need to shut the fuck up and quit whining about me IMing mods. I use message detail all the time, that's the point you fucking moron. And nice way to threaten me, like I give a shit about Gamefaqs and its horrible moderation system and even worse users. Oh, and if I make an acceptable topic, you'll moderate it? Way to make yourself out to be a power abusing nimrod.

Good night, good sir.

Good night indeed, asshole. Try to actually do your job for once and maybe I won't need to IM mods. And funny you accused me of whining when my topic was asking a simple question. I had no intentions of IMing a mod about that.

[GGFan]

This site has the worst and most overblown moderation system in history. It's a wonder I still drop by to post here and there.: Zosh
