Couple Announcements, New CM's

[Rush]

Couple announcements. It's been made clear by many members that VSN needs it's focus. We aren't making some huge change or leap by simply wanting to focus on sports, and by doing that we have put Sports forums above off-topic forums. Not a huge change. I think we've always had that focus on sports but it was never specifically stated.

With this emphasis on sports discussion, we've brought on some new CM's.

From our previous group of CM's we're retaining Atlas, Woy, and NAHSTE. The rest have got shitcanned.

Specifically :west: so feel free to ridicule him.

Adding on "so far" is SHOGUN, JeremyHight, and FirstTimer. All quality posters, we're hoping 1-2 more quality posters can step up and wish to fill the role.

CM's don't really mean/do much. It is somebody who just helps regulate the activity in a forum and keeps the forum populated with quality threads. We may dabble in some more minor changes, so stay tuned the thread so you can get those updates.

MmmmBeer has mentioned overhauling the site graphically with a new design, I will also throw in a brand new skin (that doesn't suck dick, I promise) for you fucks.

:hammer: :hammer: :hammer:

With some of these minor changes, Argath can get the server squared away so this smiley isn't how we feel at times.

All contribute nothing
All very close

Happy to have survived. I think that a lot of what CM's do goes under the radar. I do a lot of thread title changing when I see a title misspelled (ie, Bucky's "Teacher puts kids on blats/blast" thread which I corrected after it hurting my head for a few days). I know Woy has done some thread merging when there are two or three threads on the same topic.

A lot of it is just maintaining the aesthetics. Obviously things being spelled correctly is preferable to them not be, or having one topic with 10 replies looks better than two redundant replies with 5 each.

I'm not saying this to toot my own horn, or Woy's, or to be like "SEE, I TOLD YOU WE DO SHIT!" ... more to welcome the new CMs into the fold and give them a pretty surefire way to make an impact without even abusing any power or whipping out the trusty ban stick. (There's plenty of time for that too though. :smug

Jeremy has complained about the CM's for the longest, I will keep an eye on him.

 

[FirstTimer]

Logged in this morning and had a blue name and could see new forums.

Mind=blown.

 

[Palooza]

uhhhh where my gold at? I look ridiculous in green.

 

[leaffan]

lol @ choosing Jeremy. How long has that dick smoker been crying for a blue name back.

 

[steeljake]

why the fuck would JH be made a cm? are we back to the 'we need a serious discussion forum' bullshit again?

 

[steeljake]

uhhhh where my gold at? I look ridiculous in green.

yea... wtf... i want my jew gold!

 

[leaffan]

Hey guys lets get some serious discussion going on....

That guy is the equivilant to berowsk but instead of stupid threads about nothing they'll be serious threads without nothing.

 

[shag773]

All great posters, all great choices. Although it should be a challenge for Firstimer since he has to fit in his CM duties between thanking Sensor's posts...

:smug:

Is my fart thread not serious enough?

Who's Sensor?

:smug:

Jeremy's probably just licking his chops ready to turn that thread around.

I approve of FT... mainly because he thanks a lot of my posts :shifty:

 

[leaffan]

So I just went to post and everything froze up. I'm sure glad rush is working on getting another admin or mod who knows how to fix these things... oh wait.... more cm's to create more discussion on a board that can't handle it.

The more you know!
