That "bot" guy aka "spammy" was on while there were no moderators online.

Perhaps if the existing moderaters were to post their MSN or any other IM service addresses/infos, we could get a quick response to this sort of thing?

Noize is ALWAYS on msn, except when bot was on...

A mod in the +8-12 timezones would be much appreciated. Few of the European or American based mods are usually on then.

Bump... This really needs action.

Somehow I don't think 44 minutes requires a bump, but yes it does need action

If I were to be modded I'd be willing to be on call via highlight on #TASpring on gamesurge... I'm sure there's others that could fit that bill as well... It isn't hard to idle IRC anyways.

BTW, has quakenet gone down or is it just the quakenet server I'm connecting to?

How are the mods going to be picked?
Cause more often then not it ends up in a wad of ego and abuse.

Are you saying this from experience in the TA spring client or experience somewhere else?

Das Bruce · Post by **Das Bruce** » 04 Feb 2006, 09:39

What do you mean who's going to pick them. The bloody SY's thats who!

Betalord just picks mods. It's not a popularity contestor something. I can't say I have any complaints with the mods selected so far.

My only complaint is that there are not enough

We need more US timezone mods.... It gets really rediculous in that lobby when you all go to sleep

True, and I will soon add some more I guess .. I think some linux devs are in US timezone

And some aus/nz time ones too.

that had to be the strangest convo to jump into when i logged in last night. we really do need a moderator on there. i think the convo went on for like 10 mintes when i jumped on and who knows how long before. spring is not the place for things like this.

If you notice people making troubles, send the logs in. Mods can't be online 24/7, but players can be banned or restricted or something for troubles they caused while no mod was online, if people report it.

We should all keep that in mind. Many thanks.

that might be tricky though, one could make fake logs himselft to try to screw one guy.

Then that guy would get a ban for sure.

but how would you know ? he can show a log with times in wich none of your friends was online and therefore you cant prove its false.

but that doesnt mean that noone else was logged in. if one person does start trouble, more than a single person would know. like with johhny last night, there were like 15 people that could back that up.

That's not a problem, server can keep logs of all traffic, but there are other ways as well.
