The EADD Metathread - Let's talk about how we can improve EADD

I turned it down for two main reasons.

1. I had loads of uni stuff going on.
2. I'm a junkie, and for the moment my focus needs to be on getting clean and getting my own house in order.

If I was going to mod again I'd only do it in recovery support, I'm not interested in being involved in an official capacity in any other area.

Ooooh cutting.

Out of interest what more to the job is there than that these days?

Lol at failed btw, I was asked back a couple of months ago and turned it down because I didn't feel I had the time to devote to it at the moment.

I know nothing about your asking back situation so could not comment. I was responding purely in relation to my own workload. It would not be decent of me to be explicit on details in public. I would suggest you're missing out the majority of modwork which actually involves engaging with members via PM and trying to integrate such people into the forum and/or salve their disputes though. You make no mention of that so I can only presume you never did it but stuck to enforcing the rules which = Bad Mod by definition. Feel free to correct me and I will be happy to rescind.
 
Well I would include engaging people via pm in 'remaining active in the forum', as I mentioned.

You'll notice that I actually complained about a mod leaving their inbox full meaning people were unable to communicate with them in a thread yesterday.

edit: Or have you not been reading the threads8)
 
Then you would've noticed my abject apologies for being in such a state. T'ain't a dicksizey thing so much as I cannot relate to what you describe modding as. It was a long time passed. I'm sure you could be as good as anybody can be. I'm shite. I do make the effort though which is not what I saw from your description of modding hence taking some minor offence. There's a big difference betwixt modding and actually modding. I only saw the former so called it out given you should know better having done such. I am shite at both but don't pretend otherwise. I know I am. That would be the difference as I see it.

Let's just be honest here...

You threw a tantrum when I suggested that modding wasn't difficult and then called out something that wasn't there. You implied I didn't engage with people via pm for which you have precisely zero evidence. I would have thought that the statement 'remain active in the forum' pretty obviously implied responding to the influx of PMs.

Clearly not. For that I apologise.
 
^ some moderators just apply the rules, doing the bare minimum and that's fine. if that is one's approach then one would probably describe moderating as "not hard". you talk about the importance of activity and yet you couldn't manage it for more than a minute. elsewhere on bluelight, you're actually bragging about being the worst mod ever so your comments in this thread are a little disingenuous, no?

bluelight has taught me a lot over the years. it's taught me that it's a lot easier to poke holes in somebody else's volunteer service than it is to provide a worthwhile contribution. moaning about the darkness and lightbulbs. and all that :)

alasdairm is a fucking cunt

that's what bl taught me over the years...



ban: three two one...
 
I'm steering well clear of any disciplinaries in this thread under the circumstances, but will say that Owen has missed the point by so many miles he clearly never ever saw the fukker so it barely counts as a miss... and as for Arnold... he is but Arnold and clearly cannot help that fact.

I didn't poke holes in anyone else's volunteer service, unless of course you took who the fuck is julie comment seriously. I would have thought the fact I have only been floating around the board solidly for about a fortnight might give a clue as to the fact that was a joke though.

Glad to see that all is well in unity among the bluelight staff though, not always the way.:)
 
Are we talking about EADD, or are we talking about hole digging?
 
Lol one page I'm the devil for poking holes in other peoples service the very next I'm a brown noser.

Got to love this place sometimes.=D

Hey,

BJ was getting slack on here (through many now-deleted posts) for not being present enough on the forum.

I defended BJ and thanked BJ for their drug knowledge and personal help with heroin issues in the past.

I referred to BJ as "Him/Her" as I genuinely do not know what to refer to them as and didn't want to make the wrong assertation - the name "becomingjulie" is ambiguous enough.

This was NOT transphobia, I DID NOT break the BLUA and should NOT have receieved an infraction.


I accept it may be a sensitive issue, and tact was slightly off with the reference. I had been drinking a little that night

Ok... better idea. ........ Have ME as moderator in replacement (I accept I lack drug knowledge and maturity, but I will make up for all of this on the staff nudie thread where I will become an absolute bluelight legend)......
