The Official Forums: BG Edition

**Kazen** · 2011-03-22 20:38

Idea for forum:

Volunteer moderators; after the community is established, SE should look for prime candidates to assist in keeping the peace amongst the boards. Look for examples of posters who assist the community, display their opinions without being detrimental/offensive, and just overall present a good example to the rest of the community. They can be monitored by the company to make sure they aren't abusing power, and/or harassing people. My idea would be:

-Give them the ability to lock, move, or delete threads that are inappropriate, or antagonistic
-Let them warn posters when their posts are becoming offensive to the point they will recieve punitive action from the main staff.
-Be arbitrators between company and playerbase for getting ideas acrossed in an orderly fashion
-Other ideas the company might have them do errandwise that I havent thought of.

This is from the #1 damage dealer on the block. Check back a few pages for the sig. Also lol @ BG not being an example of a user moderator based FFXI site because it's a "dying community".

Seems like that person hasn't posted anything in the past 7 hours so it may take a bit to catch on

**Kazen** · 2011-03-22 21:46

I actually made a serious post for once in that moderator thread. I have a feeling I'll piss someone off with that literacy rate line though.

I'm usually pretty patient when it comes to morons but the "Official Forums" are literally making me want to kick a baby, punch a random person, and do a "Vertical Cleave" on my left wrist! UGH!!!

The following threads are what put me over the edge.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...-Mage-Job-(FEM)
http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...ade-Specialist

AND all the constant "Bacon Mage" bullshit. I seriously hope the GMs/Mods on the Official Forums start banning these idiots off the forum AND off the game.

**Shenrien** · 2011-03-22 22:32

I'm surprised mods just don't perma ban these people from forums...

**Greatguardian** · 2011-03-22 22:37

Woooow. The "Player Moderators" thread just got moved by the GMs into the Website Feedback section.

Gunblade, Time Mage, Shifter, Transfusion Mage, those threads are all retarded. The people are actually serious about these threads
Bacon Mage, Fried Egg Mage, those threads are just mocking the previously mentioned threads. We're just doing these for shits and giggles.

it's a dead thread now lol.

**ronin sparthos** · 2011-03-22 22:40

Pretty sure the GMs are loving this new task assigned to them. The daily entertainment must be far more than what they were getting answering typical calls in a day.

I bet there will be some serious "Spring Cleaning" on the forums once the servers are back up and running. Hopefully that will include some bans of the bigger idiots on there.

I see! I see!

The only two suggestions that I really liked were the "Gym" and the "Tier II Jobs". The rest is a bunch of crap.

The Tier II Job thing reminds me of the original Final Fantasy. That whole bit about getting a Rat's Tail from some castle infested with mobs and delivering it to Bahamut as a "sign of courage." Fucking Bahamut is scared of rats or something?

Oh shit son she called you out

Oh, and @ GreatGuardian, DRG > MNK, and we don't even need an empyrean ws to do so .
