Yeah but he is an animal!! Tod spends more of that time though on the Organisation of the place mate, the structure, where threads are on the forum etc. I am not sure he is spending countless hours deleting and or altering posts or threads. My view would show that as I see changes.

Don't get me wrong Nic, Toddie does an awesome job and the current structure is a result of the countless hours Toddie has invested in sorting it all out as the forum is alive and there is a constant need to organize to function. I don't think or that as "Moderation" though mate. Construction and management maybe.???

I really don't see a need to retain a record of that though as it would just contribute to the mess.

As a Moderator I can see all posts that have been deleted by other Moderators and also any posts that have been deleted by members. My view keeps the record on display and it can stay pretty messy if a thread cleaning has dropped 2 pages of Banter.

Even that Banter I would generally not remove unless requested.

x2 with above, I have no issue with members seeing what gets deleted, but as Darren said it can start looking pretty messy. All members can see what gets moderated and it usually doesn't warrant a message 2 state why as basically its just swear words that get moderated, 99% of anything that has been deleted is spam or double up threads the other 1% is either political or the thread just turns 2 sh!t for one reason or another. Most people here now the rules and obey them and the forum pretty much runs itself with hardly any moderation :)

Thanks Daz and yes most of my mod work on here is not actually moderation never really has been, I originally jumped on board as a mod so I could help Andy maintain the structure of the forum, moving posts around, consulting with AB getting new categories and sub cats up and running, Looking for vb mods that would benefit the look or make the forum more user freindly.......pretty much all the background stuff.


And back to the subject of the thread...........I have never been banned from a forum, although occasionally I have thought about banning myself :)

Toddy is a neat freak and is an absolute asset to this place and a huge silent achiever Nic!!!

I used to help him with this until recently with my ridiculous lifestyle but without him shit would everywhere!

Very much appreciated by me and I'm sure others, especially for thousands of members who look in a category to find something related to that category and actually find what they are looking for...lol

Well I can add another to the list now.
Farking rebel I am!!!!
