Sheesh! 10 hours in forn tof the PC just to finish all my updates and homepage design. The homepage contents are new now. This time I used bmp format (instead of jpg) to make the image quality better.

I was proposing for an Deputy Union Leader position for unions, but GS has not considered it. I might tryto raise that proposition again maybe next year.

many unions already use the idea of a co-leader, the only prob is the limitations of the permissions - so either they have no more powers than an officer or they switch leader positions now and then - which can get annoying due to the automated msgs everyone gets when leadership changes; part of unions V2 contains improvements to the permissions system that would allow you to have a proper co-leader, who would have all of the usual leader abilities. just a matter of waiting for GS to actually do something with all that stuff...extra threads with the same idea should help a bit in bringing that part forwards at least, or even improving on it as it was one of the smaller parts of the whole unions V2 thing

Yeah. I remember correctly, Sentinelrv was pushing for a co-leader position. On my part, it's not really a formal co-leader position, but an expanded option in the permissions page where we can control which officer can edit posts, or even allow to modify the short description (the homepage design). Co-leader should have the power of a leader, except that he cannot demote the leader.

I usually think of a co-leader having all the abilities of the leader except setting the permissions, deleting the union, and demoting the leader.

Yeah. That's the idea. A separate permissions page for each officer is also good coz we don't want new officers to be able to delete posts, etc. Well, I hope GS will do something about it. It is annoying to be receiving "XXX has just been demoted"... "YYY is the new leader". Then after a week or so you'll receive anothe rmessage.

What GS needs to make is a thing if an officer resigns his position that the leader gets a PM saying what happened.

yer that's pretty much what sentinelrv's thing is too :P advanced permissions so you can fully control all of the officer's permissions separately to make it so that one of them really is a co leader, rather than just a new position in the union that gives them all that stuff

same idea as is in the unions V2 thing again lol, sentinelrv really didn't extrapolate much on that part tho, it could do with being made clearer to the GS admins of exactly what we want and being pushed so that it gets done sooner :P if you make a thread about it (or bump up an old one) then gimme a link to it :P

time will indeed tell what they choose to do, i hope they split the power so that a co-leadership can take place between the leader and the other person he chooses. This will make the power not to heavy for one person and you have two people to decide on the matters like FG was saying. It could also lead to new improved ideas about how the union archives are displayed and make it easier to hunt for one specific thing and not have to dig through everything. though this is probably not going to happen with Gs as they do not care and are biased to anything that is not On the stupid Xbox 360.

:lol: The reason I was moderated is "Moderator Discretion: Not Speaking in English - Speak ONLY in English". :lol: I can't believe there's such a ground for moderation considering that I'm talking with my fellow Filipino. It's more of annoyingly funny than upsetting.

Anyway, THE mod says it is a violation, then so be it.

Same, it just makes me feel like as long as he gets that Mod position, nothing else really matters to him, he'll even use his own friends.

Heh, he'll probably stab us in the back and report us for this.

Exactly. Hell even the other mods would probably start to hate him. He'll try to be buddy buddy with everyone but nobody will talk to him because they know if they make one little mistake he's going to mod them.

If you don't believe me, which I highly expect, I'll take some pictures and make a video. I'm not going to lie about it. Yeah, I am known to be a "mod-wannabe." But when a user sees something that violates the rules and then passes it up, that is almost as bad as the violation itself. What is wrong with making the community a better place? I still hope to have you all as friends, but I kind of doubt that is possible now.

Edit:

I know it's really sad. I mean..just listen to some of the things he says. Actual Maa Quote: "I'm going to be mod one day, BELIEVE IT!"natiko
When you show me when I said that (a picture would be great) then I'll believe you. Right now though, I have my doubts.

But you have to admit that is a rather crappy rule, it's kind of discriminating against other languages. Yes this is a English speaking board, but a tiny is of spanish, japanese or whatever is not gonna hurt anybody, it's not going to offend anybody.

maa4208

Ok, I admit to saying "Hell yes". The reason for me saying it, though, is because I thought FG had already been modded, which would have been a surprise because he's the last person I would expect to recieve a moderation.

But maa, you're a joke now. You sell out your own friends just to become a Moderator, you even laughed at the fact that you were going to report them. That to me just basically says that you don't deserve to have friends. Why should we trust you ever again, when we know that if we make one wrong move, you'll be right there to sell us out?

You sell out your own friends just to become a ModeratorDisgaeamad
  No, I "sell out" people because they break the rules. If you saw someone break the rules, you should report them too. It's the right thing to do. I don't want to talk about this here. If you want to, which it looks like you do, then take it to MSN, where it started, should of stayed, and belongs.
