Connor Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I'm pretty sure they made a fake moderator group, and chucked him in it.Not sure though, you'll get answers soon enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conra Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Well he is in the Global Moderator group and so is Soul so it can't be fake.Regards, Dewald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckymegan Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hahaha, best post ever! It is pretty much fake and I believe he has no mod "powers". I could be wrong though, but it's ok, cause he'll be fair :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKris Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It's not fake. He really got the moderation job. He is just not as active as most members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I don't care what anyone says, I'm not 100% convinced.Oh well, guess it will be something we will never know the truth about.Considering if it is a huge prank or something, the staff wouldn't tell us anyway.If it isn't a prank, then his lucky to still be in the position his in, considering how inactive he is. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaaron Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 If he wasn't a mod, he wound'nt be in that group.Plus, he tried getting on July 13…lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Ah true Wabbit, I've seen posts like that.Probably banned but his main group is Global Moderator. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKris Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Doubt it, I don't think he is banned. But it is not my place to make assumption's because I don't know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruins of Hell Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Excerpt of Global Moderator group:[](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#b8dca8d61d13a6191cfdec5ef9a5a4ce.PNG)A banned person:[](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#51a7dca263412050b8b41a10ab62191f.PNG)sonic's page:[](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#0ffd6bdb815fcdaf9df07410bf516d8b.PNG)@D.J.:> All I want to know is how do you explain [this](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=20644)?I explain it as he's a moderator that tells us what to do in the Admin Zone where he's free from your skepticism and fire?

Conra Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 I have a few points:-The guy IS a mod. No way that he isn't because he is in the mod group and he does have powers.-He ISN'T banned since he was active recently and he was given his mod powers about a year ago.-It most probably isn't a staff member because the the last time anyone posted on that thread was on August 03, 2010 by Adulese and there would be absolutely no reason for a staff member to log into that account one day if it was theirs.-I did a check on the post counts of mods and admins and it seems that posts in the admin or moderator sections do not count towards your post count so this quote could be (and most probably is as Soul doesn't lie) true:@Soul:> I explain it as he's a moderator that tells us what to do in the Admin Zone**My Conclusion:**Being a mod is not about how active you are or if you post or not. This guy does not mis-use his powers but he is a good mod and we should respect him for that and just accept that fact that he is a mod. We should drop the suspicion and be grateful for his services towars the community.@Soul:> he's free from your skepticism and fire?I don't mean it as "skepticism or fire" at all. All I meant was that it was surprising for me seeing the last active date on his profile. I respect his wishes for not wanting/feeling the need to post where not necessary.Regards, DewaldEDIT: Had to fix a quote that I messed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I don't care what anyone says, I'm still not convinced.Will take a lot more then a mod posting telling us his really a mod and he isn't a staff member on a different account.Ah well, I'll believe what I want to believe I guess.

And go read my post again and think about it. The guy is a mod so deal with it.> Jealousy makes you nasty. =PRegards, Dewald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the hell do you think I kept my admin powers when my primary was set as post count?
