Why the hell did you get de-modded? :(

Wow..
I am blind ;)

Congratulatiosn to all the new mods, especially Gooch, Sarai and Justice of sarcasm but can someone explain to me why SCD has been demodded?

i really don't think Sarai should have been made a mod, she has a very mall amount of time on NG and she doesn't even have many posts compared to more of the NG regs.
but i'm happy about the rest of the new mods :)

Posts don't say anything about that. It's about the quality of the posts. Even though I agree with you she should not have been modded, at least, not yet. I do not agree with you're arguements

I think we'd all like to know that.

WTF!! I think Wade or somebody should come on and give us an explanation at least, instead of just leaving us in the dark. I thought S-C-D was one of the better mods.

I totally agree; but she wouldn't be the first unqualified Mod to get by on her T&A factor.

Gotta say, all funny choices. Gooch and Evark are overdue, but the rest... I dunno, I'm still in perpetual expectance of Subpar and Rabid and BRS on the mod rooster and it's weird they've been overlooked again.

indeed, damnit SCD was one of my favourite to lock threads and leave a message :'(

now my 'lock of the day' sig thing is gonna be boring :'(

I'm glad about Evark. He's always been one of the more intelligent ones here.

I beleive SCD's de-moderation might have had something or other to do with this thread, and the opinions and ideals held therein. Of course, seeing as I'm not one of a privelaged few, I can't say for certain, but if I were to fathom a guess, that'd be it.

It's a travesty, really, because now the mod list is entirely devoid of 100% Scots beef, no aftificial ingredients, etc there.

A lot of people seem to be shocked about Sarai getting modded. It makes sense when you put it into context. The administrators seem to like a good balance between girls and guys as mods. They couldn't mod 6 guys, so they had to put a girl in there. Which girl is the best fit for the job? Sarai, with no doubt. She's mature, responsible and intelligent. So what if she's only got 1,300 posts? They're better than most of the regulars who have over 5,000 posts.

Congrats to Sarai and all the rest. I thought they were great choices and covered a wide range of personalities.

Hmm, that is a bit extreme, especially the pictures. But would a warning not of sufficed. We need his Scotishness.

look at her sign up date though, its this year, thats not very good for a mod to only have been on NG for 4 months! i strongly disagree with Wade/Tom's decision on modding Sarai.
its nothing personal, but she simply hasn't been on NG long enough.

But that's sexism, which is apparently why SCD got de-modded.

Not the nicest comment to say. If I had time I'd really get back to my psychology thread which with 32 pages and 50000 words typed was quite well recieved. Because I now have a full-time job it's hard to do that, so I'm sorry that the quality of my posts has not been as high as of late.

I am very greatful to be given this position and I hope to use it well in the future. The only thing I can say to people who say that I don't have much in the way of 'posts' is that threads about; sex, mastubation, porn etc really aren't my thing, so my post count is a little lower than yours? ;-)

Anyway, moving on, I am sorry I disapoint, I will try to be good at this, it is a learning experience. Please though, refrain from comments like that. They're not very nice.

Thank you

Congrats to all the new mods, but I think BRS should have been nominated.

There are other women with many more posts and a greater interest for Newgrounds than she. She just struck the fancy of a few lonely people, most likely.

That would be such a travesty I would eat my own eyes out.

Well SCD wasn't happy initially being modded, but it seems a shame to have gotten rid of him, especially because he's one of the better mods, better posters, and all round one of the better people really.

They all deserve it.

I'm actually shocked that Canas was modded, because he's a good friend of mine.

Oh well, congrats.

I think BadReligionSkater should be next. :D

hence the fact i've started something in my sig that might have a miniscule effect on SCD getting remodded, heck i gotta help one of my fav mods :(

In my first post, I've already mentioned why having more posts doesn't count. It's quality, not quantity, that count.

So who do you think would have been better, huh? I'm not saying that there aren't other good female posters, but I don't think any are as mature and responsible as Sarai.

She just struck the fancy of a few lonely people, most likely.

Ok, seriously, what is your problem? She definately didn't get modded only because of her looks. There are plenty of good looking females on NG. You're just very bitter.

Seriously, what the fuck has happened to Newgrounds, and especially the BBS? When did this shit embued wave of political-correctness wash over this site? Things stopped being fun when it all became about money instead of enjoyment.

What happened to warnings? Didn't Wade ban Dobio when he amde that "Post here and I'll ban you thread" as a warning not to abuse his powers? Surely a warning for SCD would have been sufficent at first? If he had continued then demodding him would have been justified in my opinion.

Since this has been brought up by someone other than me, I completely agree. Please, please, please, moderators of NG, allow for offensive content. Please. This place is supposed to be for entertainment puposes - don't fucking forget it. Especially if it's in good humour. Fucking Hell. I'm with SCD all the way, even if the admins demodded him. He was a good mod, and Republicans offend homosexuals anyway.

Bitter? Hell I might be if the BBS hadn't degraded to its current form, marred by incessant waves of stupidity brought on by the idiotic majority. Being a mod now is just babysitting the 10 year olds with internet access.

Oh, and seriously; does the aroma of a mod's ass appeal to you THAT much? You might want to take your nose out of there and get a breath of fresh air. You sound delirious.

Maybe he had got a warning in the past. Who knows?

Dobio's abuse of powers isn't the same as that sexist thread. I think SCD stepped over the line (WAY over the line). I was pretty shocked when I saw that thread. Even if it was a joke, it wasn't funny and served no purpose. Mods can have fun, but they have to know their limits. SCD should have known better.
