Welcome your *NEWEST* moderator!

[_____V_____]

I give you the newest addition to the moderation team.

Please rise and put your hands together for...

CHEEBACHEEBA!


This was my last job as super-mod. I am stepping down from all moderating/administrative duties, effective immediately.

[vampyd1977]

awww sorry to hear that, you still gonna be floating about entertaining us? :)

[cheebacheeba]

Wait, what happened there?

Is anyone stepping in?

[MichaelMyers]

Who has admin powers now? Heavy weighs the crown, apparently....

Thanks for the new smiley btw...::devil::

Bummer! I now remember how I felt when I heard The Beatles were breaking up. Some things should just never end.::sad::

[cheebacheeba]

Well guys, I'm not really sure how or why this has happened.
I know some of you, though it's been quite some time since I've been an active member. I never really left, and always check in, but yeah...at this point in time it's definitely the least active I've been here in a while.

Not sure what happened with V, as he hasn't sent me any kind of correspondence.
I have to admit I'm not certain about any of the things I can, or I'm supposed to be able to do...it appears from looking that I can edit posts, merge things, hand out infractions, and that's about it.

Unsure if there's any kind of expectations, requests or whatever.
I can't say I'm going to frequent the place a hell of a lot more than I currently do, but I'll try to stick my head in here and there, join the odd discussion and I don't know, try to stop any overflow of BS.

If there's any suggestions, feel free to put them in here or message me.

[Angra]

Yea, could you make this thread a sticky?

Odd that V would just take off. I liked those events that I participated in.

Thanks to whoever did it. ::smile::

V has banned himself, wtf???

What the hell is going on here? ::confused::

No offense to Cheeba but it seems like to be a moderator around here you have to be a member whose barely here

[cheebacheeba]

None taken.
Hey, I agree with you. I imagine I'll be doing precious little here except for maybe being in another time zone, if I happen to come across some issues at times others aren't available, I may be able to act on them.
I see where you're coming from though, but it's not like I applied or anything...

Oh i know that, my post wasn't supposed to be directed at you. Just something i noticed. NE's gone, ChronoGrl's never here anymore, I can't remember the last time i saw Fortunato. Straker's here every once in awhile and does anyone even know who Zwoti is?

V's random return and then disappearing act was just strange. He said he only came back to appoint a new moderator but if so why did he try to continue some of his incomplete threads?

Anyway i'm sure you'll do a good job and at least it was someone whose been here for awhile.

[Angra]

I see where you're coming from though, but it's not like I applied or anything...

Actually you did. It's just a long time ago now. ::wink::

And you doing precious little might be enough to keep this place running as HDC has been a calm and friendly place for quite some time now.

[cheebacheeba]

does anyone even know who Zwoti is?
He was just one of us posters, I think he was posting in here a bit before me...though we're talking about, like turn of the century type time when I signed up in my original incarnation, though yeah, I think he stopped frequenting the site even before I did, and you can see how long since I've been properly around.
As I recall he was the first to get any kind of moderator status around here.
Could be wrong though.

Actually you did. It's just a long time ago now
Hm, ok. Probably for vindictive purposes if it was back in the day...darth whatever, few issues with some guy sedatedsomething...may have thought it would be fun.

And you doing precious little might be enough to keep this place running as HDC has been a calm and friendly place for quite some time now.
Well yeah, about that much is planned.
Though yeah while I can try to stick my head in a little more, I can't say I'm going to be running comps or anything like that. I'll probably just try to keep things tidy, unspammy and somewhat trouble free if I can.

And that ought to be enough.

If you go all in as moderator you just risk burning out like the rest of them.

I had the same thought. I offered to be a mod.....you see where that led. ::stick out tongue::

[Straker]

Straker's here every once in awhile...

If its any consolation, I log in probably 5 or 6 times a week, but I only post when I have something I want to say. That's how its always been with me too... If anyone has an issue that needs a moderators attention they can PM me and I will most likely respond inside 48 hours.

For the most part we have an awesome community that pretty much takes care of itself and these days with facebook and twitter and all the other ways people interact online, forums really aren't all that popular. Most of the Mods are long time members who were, at one time or another, regular posters. They do their best, but life moves on and often so do they. With the lack of any kind of administration, development or direction for this site, its always going to be on the brink of disappearing, so personally, I'd just make the most of it while its here.

That wasn't an insult to you just so you know. I meant it more as you're the only one i see around here. Hell i'm not here much anymore either so i'm not really one to comment, its just how it seemed to me.

[DeadbeatAtDawn]

I refuse to let the 'Forum' die. I feel it will return again, everything old becomes new again.

I dislike FaceBook groups, they are lazy. In a forum it's more intimate, {as intimate you can get on the internet} conversations develop. You can also showcase a great film, your favorite film, and start amazing conversations about it. Post pictures, trailers, information and really give it star treatment, like a film deserves.

I started my own Forum, 2013, it will be 2 years old this Feb. I have 400 members in which{outside my mods and admins} I have about 7 members that post everyday, regularly. It's gonna take a long time to establish a following. I'm not giving up.

::love::

[Straker]

That wasn't an insult to you just so you know.

I know, I didn't take it that way either.... Just wanted to let people know that even when I haven't got much to say I still stick my head in here most days to see what's going on. ::cool::

Now I can slowly begin catching V's post count.

Oh and don't think he's gone. So long as "Marley's Ghost" is still floating around...::EEK!::

It is somewhat ironic that it's often the moderators who need moderation! ::big grin::

Man, I guess all the moderators are tied up in a broom closet in the dark corner of what we call the twilight zone.

Strange. Did all the moderators start a Facebook group? It's just strange how people left this place without reason for who knows where.

Yeah like I said a few posts ago, WHO IS GOING TO KEEP TO THE PEACE ON THE FORUM!!!! Where the heck is that chabacheeba when you need him.


Hello!! Get you butt back on the forum same goes for all you other moderators!!!

[hammerfan]

Told them they shoulda made me a mod ::devil::

too right

[MichaelMyers]

Hey what about me. I will have been here 13 years this October. People born when I registered are now entering high school. ::big grin::

But I don't want the power. My belief is there is a curse associated with being a HDC mod. Several have died (e.g., krpoprain, zwoti) and others disappear into thin air (e.g., ElGato, the most recent "vanishing"....).

[anglewitch]

I would make a terrible moderator so don't you dare elect me! ::danger::

Oh so your gonna disappear to now huh.

The moderators are disappearing like fairies.

::shocked:: ::shocked:: ::shocked::

[anglewitch]

Why don't they elect myers or bloofer lady as moderator or something.

[ImmortalSlasher]

Reading posts has to get old. I remember the old days of IRC. That was fine until too many people joined up for silly reasons.

It would be nice if the moderators said if they were creating a new area or getting ready to clean this place up and restart it.

Yeah probably.

Just had a thought, lets keep this thread on until at least one of the moderators comes back so we can stop running around like chickens who have lost there eggs.

My bad again. OUCH! these my bads are killing me today!

[vampyd1977]

ive been mod and admin on other sites, its definitely time consuming, just removing spambots used to take up half my day lol.

[anglewitch]

Just had another thought, my dad did this once he vanished from the forum and replaced himself with a different profile, would that be something V would do?

[anglewitch]

LoL. You don't stink one just knows when your coming. ::big grin::

[anglewitch]

Just noticed something ever since the moderators disappeared the EDIT button in the lower right hand corner does not vanish after 30 minutes. Now it just stays there.

I'm sure that you guys already noticed that though.

yeah it was last think done i think before v left, its so people can edit the watched movies list for the full year.

You can rate it if you want.

[ImmortalSlasher]

I guess someone could test if we still have moderators by posting a horror nude scene image or video. But I don't want to get banned.

[anglewitch]

Great idea. They will not resist removing it.

[Monkey Astronaut]

Any word on why _V_ left?

[anglewitch]

Asked villain and he said " its a long story".

CORRECT! But it is still ridiculous not to have any moderators (besides straker) on the forum, so that is going to draw some attention.

Yeah.

[cheebacheeba]

I'm here a little more often than I've been in a while.
Which...I guess, is a lot more than a lot of people with the position are/have been from what I've observed.
I've never been one to post competition forums or really start a lot of new threads, but I pop in occasionally to discuss movies, help with questions that come my way, talk about comics and games - so while I might not seem the part of moderator, I'm still around, I'm now at least checking in daily (or nightly, to you USA folks) so if I see anything that needs addressing, or have any questions or issues bought to my attention, they'll be acted upon.

[hammerfan]

Did you ever find out how to make me a moderator?

[cheebacheeba]

Sent this guy horror a message....well, about THAT long ago...same reply as usual. Eg - Waiting on that.
