Forum Moderators
by Hey, you forum moderators, I set it up so now you can edit/delete posts, as well as categorize posts. For instance, you can mark a comment as offtopic, informative, stupid, etc. If you're a forum mod, I am counting on you to moderate your forums, as I can't do everything. Soon, users will be able to filter out stupid/offtopic posts so they only see the good stuff, so please to try choose the right moderation tag.
You don't need to mark every single comment, just ones that you think need it.
Please be VERY VERY careful with this, as is it a lot of power. If anybody starts abusing the moderation system, I will change it so you don't have so much power, or just remove you as a mod.
Thanks guys! I hope this is fun!

When moderating, think of this:
If you were able to Hide comments of certain types, like Stupid or Off Topic comments, which ones would you actually want to be in those categories?
Also, if you wanted to look at all of the most Informative or Funny comments on eZabel, which ones would you want to see show up?
Note for all you guys going crazy with the Informative tags
informatives are really only for comments that are very informative, and you think people should read them
take it easy. not every comment should be informative, and most likely, we should only see an informative comment once every few days. cause not too much informative stuff is posted on eZabel haha
ok wait, i have some things...first, i like how the bar changes color, it's a good look for ezabel XP. but the bar for stupid and informative are too close in color, and the words "funny", etc, are too small for my eyes...eventually i'll get used to this, but for now, maybe it could be bold?
i think more than one post every few days is informative...a useful link to have, an simplified explanation of something relating to computers, (like the internet or viruses) or something along those lines.
r u serious? you must be completely color blind! hahahaha
ian these site changes are really awesome. good work!
haha. the "deanh77 is Stupid" idea was Mine! I love it.
aww. you stopped that. I loved it.
Also, please just moderate the topmost parent if possible. In other words, don't go through and mark every single comment in an off-topic thread as Off Topic. Just mark the first one as off topic.
whooops okay i will from now on
i moderated myself a lot lol
Just to clue you in a bit, very soon users will individually be able to say: Don't show me posts marked as Stupid, Off Topic, etc.
So, try to mark things as what they should be. If there's a thread talking about a particular subject, and the conversation branches off into something else, mark the first post as Off Topic. If somebody responds with something completely off, like "feet" or "fish", mark it as Stupid.
also can u underlin under each bold text at the top. Or make the first topic always the darkest.
i'm sorry, i don't understand what you're saying here..
will it show what mod edited your post with a timestamp?
it keeps track of who modified your comment. i will make it show that soon
wooohoooo!!!!
