The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Good Morning All!
Moderators and non Moderators alike, lend me your ears! (or eyes in this case!) With all the recent stress and aggravation caused by the JA's, we at Freeola are wishing to know exactly what:
A) Moderators - what would you like to be able to do, to be able to perform your jobs more effectively?
B) Regulars and chatters - What would you like to see Moderators able to do, to be able to help protect the forums from spammers and abusive users? Or do you think they currently have enough power?
Once we know exactly what you want to be able to do on here, without having to worry about alerting us staffies all the time, (although we should always be lurking to take action) we should be able to make this a better place to be.

Yeah we just allow JAT's to do the job :) No not really, not entirely sure, though I expect there would be others who want to take the place near enough straight away. I think we are going to start allowing you guys to start Modding on more than one forum at a time as well, again not 100% on this, need to have it chiseled in stone first!
Vexxxed...if you're around, do we have a contingency plan for replacing moderators who leave/want to resign from user created forums?
We certainly like some of the ideas put forward by your selves, these should be in line for testing and releasing in the near future. Keep your eyes peeled! - but please not literally :)

I'll say.. never
When are the changes going to be made?
Not sure about the closing of threads but I like the idea of freezing accounts as long as we can delete their spammy threads and psots still.
Harpooning and then freezing.

Not so sure about locking, but certainly freezing users is a great idea. It also makes the mods feel like they have Mortal Kombat style super-powers...
