Moderators, Gladiators I Challenge Thee....
 
Dear Zeus: Mistress, Goddess of all things whiplike has a challenge for thee to have one Free day without the Moderators just to see how things go- come on whaddya say? If the Forum members can communicate without it turning into an "Ethernet Parking Lot Brawl" I will surrender one of my finest custom made whips to thee...

Zeus 02-27-2007 05:01 PM

That would be Bill's (webmaster) call, not mine. :D

Not likely to happen though. ;)

If for one day we don't have moderators, I will go CRAZY with stupid, foul, inappropriate posts just so the moderators know how much we miss them.

PaulC 02-27-2007 05:50 PM

I think that it would be safer to unlock the gates of Attica for one day.

Jim B. 02-27-2007 05:58 PM

For an idea of how that could turn out, even when loosely moderated, Benzworld "offtopic" will give you an idea of what can happen.

It could be a real trainwreck, if you ask me. One of their habitues just recently joined up here, jumped in hard with both feet and brought that attitude here, and I have the feeling he got his "wings clipped", as he's been absent recently.

The Gates of Hell would be a more apt analogy.

Or the Gates of Bellevue Mental Hospital.

The result can not any worse than my two roosters going at each other....uh, wait...there was a fair bit of blood during today's 'discussion' between the two.

Dubyagee 02-27-2007 08:07 PM

Anarchy! Anarchy!


Their needs to be a thread started with a time limit. Lets say 2 hours, then it self expires. No holds barred.

Are you talking about a cock fight? :eek:

Yep, they jostle every day, but today was one of those 'all out' battles that happen from time to time. It's what they do on their own.

WVOtoGO 02-27-2007 11:01 PM

I do think it would be interesting if the Mods opened one thread for 48 hours, that‘s it.
Each member gets one post to said thread, that’s it. Each members’ post can only be five lines or less, that‘s it.
Anything you want to say. But, no outright vulgarity. No porn.
Anyone breaks a rule - instant ban. The thread stays on OD for 24 more hours after lock-down for all to read, that’s it.
Then - It’s deleted by the opening Mod.

I don’t see where this would cause too much harm to the forum. But then, I’m no forum expert either.
The interesting thing would be the posts that turn out to be nothing like you’d perhaps expect from a particular member. On the other hand. Many may be a simple waste of time. As we certainly know what some members would have to say. They try different angles of it all but daily.

BTW, "that’s it." (New phrase for the day. :silly: )

Why would the Mods need to get involved? Start your thread and state your parameters. Close the thread whenever you wish.

I’m thinking Mods, because it would more than likely contain some "personal attacks". Those would be allowed. The Mods/Master would have to OK such a thing. I’ll gladly open it to the floor with their approval of a “no holds” (except rules as stated) thread.

What would happen is that certain members would say nasty things about other members, I guarantee it. I'd bet my E430 on it. Then after the thread is closed, there would be unresolved arguments, and these would manifest themselves in all kinds of innuendos, backstabs, insinuations and references in dozens of other threads, daily, in this forum. Kind of like the way it is now, only elevated.

All of which I'd have to follow, sift through, answer PMs and reports, and try to make sense of it all and who started what, when and where and who gets the little red card.

So...fun idea, but not on my watch, please and thank you. ;)

Dee8go 02-28-2007 11:00 AM

Yeah, Mistress. What were you thinking? That we're all reasonably mature adults here?

No, sadly, that would be WAY too much responsibility for we of the mercedesshop forum to handle.

Is it time for them to pass out our meds yet? . . .

Yes not for long, knee problems...

I'm happy with just a nice "wobble." I'm a simple man. I don't require much, just a simple wobble . . .

Hatterasguy 02-28-2007 11:40 AM

Go to Benzworld off topic if you want a free for all brawl. It gets old pretty quick if you ask me. Why should one need to resort to swearing and all out personal attacks in order to get there point's across. :confused:

"Men in shorts?" What does that have to do with porn?

Then the judgement day came as they had foretold...

And the Earl flowed out upon the land...

Mistress 03-01-2007 12:21 PM

and all the king's horses and all the king's men got the earl, oil, rl, awl...

King's men? Were THEY wearing shorts, Mistress?

Do you really consider that "...pornographic, sexually offensive, sexually explicit, or objectifying...?" I sure do not and would be very surprised if "da man" does either, but I guess we will find out. I consider it "educational" to think that such a beer porter exists...

Besides, I've posted that pic on several other, more conservative, forums than I believe this one to be. But again, we shall see.

GermanStar 03-01-2007 07:02 PM

Well, it was a short stay. Hope you enjoyed it. :rolleyes:

No I don't necessarily consider it pornographic or sexually offensive... but a mod recently gave out this standard: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/1435586-post33.html
And I don't speak for them - just an observer. See the Pretty Girls thread for what has been allowed to stand up.

GermanStar 03-01-2007 07:40 PM

Yes, but not here. Frontal nudity is frowned upon by the management here, and you would be wise to remove the pic from your post.

"Yes, but not here." Exactly what does that mean? And where is the "Frontal nudity?" That is a profile pic, FWIW.
