Global Moderator - should not moderate themselves.
July 03, 2014, 02:33:17 pm
Created a user as a global moderator and made a post. Another, non moderator user reported the post. Admin logs in and warns the GM to a level of 38, now posts must be approved. Global Moderator now makes a second post. Non moderator member is able to see the unapproved post. I also noticed that after the GM made the second post, the post was not in the yellow warning color background. The message about needing approval was displayed. Perhaps when a Global Moderator is reported, that report should go to an Admin and the Moderator not see the report at all? ETA: looks like the GM can also close the report. Not a good idea any of this as the GM appears to be immune from bad behaviour. ETA: guests can also see the unapproved post. ETA: change post title

Not sure how to interpret this ... once the above GM attempts to dismiss the report, are all moderators no longer reportable?

Aggelos, what seems to be the problem? You get on Eliana's case here when she points out you guys are saying the same thing, then on another user in the other topic about this. Just because someone states their opinion that differs from you, doesn't mean you need to get on their case. Take a deep breath and relax. We all want our own little forum software the way we want it. You both said this could be a feature that can be enabled or disabled. That's pretty much an agreement if you ask me. lol

In both cases ... it is the attitude that came with the comments. I do not care if someone disagrees with a suggestion .. I care how they disagree with the suggestion. The fact that someone has unswerving belief in their moderators does not necessitate a snide or negative comment about the validity of a feature request made by someone else. Rest assured .... I have made my last feature suggestion and that I have no hurt feelings with anyone here or anywhere. My apologies to any that were offended. Moving on.
