Alright, so after reading the rules last night and seeing how much they don’t do, I think we should have them rewritten (hopefully this won’t get deleted or shoved off since I’m not posting a hue main). If anyone has any ideas of edits then feel free to post them.

My issues with the rules are pretty simple…

Admins can do whatever they want without getting into trouble. If you read the rules you can clearly see that they aren’t affected by the rules, but anyone who disagrees with admins are.

Shoutbox doesn’t really have any clear rules. That might want to change so bickering doesn’t happen so much in there since it kind f kills the chat.

Basically I think admins should be subject to the same rules and not be gods like they are now. They only get in trouble if someone higher up disagrees and not someone(s) below their status. Simple to change and to carry through with.

The shoutbox having actual rules would help the mods for it a lot since it isn’t a thread, the two of them should have slightly different rules. That’s like having the same rules for a criminal and angelic person, the rules will only have an effect on one of them, not both. Might want a different set of rules so that there’s maximum efficiency.

Sorry for this being unorganized, just my quick thoughts before getting some sleep.

Any other thoughts on the current rules?

On the shoutbox:

I personally dont think the chat box should be moderated closely at all because thats the only form of quick easy chat with everything the forums threads are moderated closely as you said.

On the forums/admins:

Unless you have had a specific run in with admins and you feel you werent treated properly (which you should make aware) I think again my own personal opinion is that you havent taken into account; admins arent randomly picked, these are committed members more active than most of us that invest their free time into moderating this forum, these kind of people arent common by the dozen, im sure every admin has been carefully selected for certain reasons and again personally i am yet to see bad moderation bar the “competition” threads.

In a nutshell i politely dont agree as stated above but everyones opinions are valid and I think you have a valid point about the whole “who polices the police” thing as members of the community there needs to be a nice comfy connection between us; the majority of the forum and them; the handpicked few. However currently nothing has made me feel unneasy towards the admins!
