    Don't mean to be rude, but what is with you and constantly wanting more VIP features?

    Whilst I don't really see many of the shitstorms, I'm aware they happen (for whatever dumb reason).

    I'm also all for instant stripping of forum adminship; such extremity will either weed out the bad ones or fix them up to conform to rules at all times.

    Damien makes a good suggestion. That's as simple the answer goes.

    I never really fancied the fact that Downy/Noname were the only people able to lock a thread/stop hell on forum happening because neither one was around to do it. Or quickly enough before things went into a hell in a handbasket.

    Strict rules for a forum moderator would keep a good leash; removing biased ones off while retaining the sincere one.

    I don't think however that Downy should stop "what he does" but I do support the idea if he were to be the head forum moderator, teaching the other two forum moderators on what to do in given situations.

    I mean absolute no offense here but I find it funny that you voted no for considering the idea and then posting that.
    The problem is that if you were to vote for someone like this, it'd create that biased moderator that we probably don't need.

    To be honest, I dare say that I believe Damien, Noname and Downy should discuss in private if they were to add more forum moderators. Damien is the most sincere in this suggestion and obviously the later two play a big role in it all.
    I think to begin with, you could add one and one only more forum moderator since Downy isn't all that slow. This is of course assuming the idea goes through.

    Someone sincere and unlikely to be biased on issues or whoever posted something that needs moderation.

    I suggest it starts off with at least one more moderator, in case it gets out of hand, the plug can always be pulled before it escalates too quickly.
    I like this idea and it should be implemented if it works.

    Hopefully n0name implements it :) Idea of starting off small is a good one.

    It's something I could do, as I'm lurking through the forums mostly since my departure.
    This way I still can do stuff for the community
