Hrm. Increased power = increased responsibility. I would hope any wrongful bannings would be punished in an eye-for-an-eye fashion.

Don't worry, I'm fully aware of the protocol. I just wanted to put the fear of Mod into the locals. Keeps 'em in line. ;)

Haha I don't think anyone actually fears mods... If they want to spam, they're not going to fear being banned.

I almost banned someone a few moments ago who was spamming before I saw you sent him a PM. I like how easy it is to ban someone
thanks for giving us the responsibility and trusting our judgment

This is a bad idea. Where are the horde of people needing to be banned that necessitates this move?
I give it a month before this is abused.

When is Cheapy going to give you the power of personality?
:twisted: IKIK...don't ban me. Yet.

Finally, I had always hoped mods would be given such a power, because frankly I think its too much work for one person and you really have to be at the right place at the right time to see something band worthy.....Im sure I was going somewhere with this.

It's not like the words on the screen magically disappear and someone couldn't come back to see what happened. Even if it is deleted off the forum I believe you still need to delete it off the server so Cheapy can see it anytime.
I'd like to see you try. ;)

If Ledhed uses his power to ban like he did a certain other activity, we'll all be banned from CAG before breakfast tomorrow morning. :rofl:

That's what I thought he looked like.
Though, wouldn't this be more like RoboCheapy 2: Electric CAGaloo?

Absolute power, corrupts absolutely.
Hopefully this isnt abused as much as the ability to change pictures in a post. That was just getting annoying.

That's what every board says... and within a year, the board magically turns into only the admins/mods friends, and all the other peons are banned.

Correction: changing pictures and posts to what was funny. It was between friends and all in good fun. I've since stopped doing so anyways, and never once did it outside of the clan forum.

Oh yeah, this is CAG, not Z5.
Never mind.
Save a few times, the moderators here have conducted themselves well.
Most of the foibles they've had I'd chalk up to immaturity, as a couple of the Mods are still only teenagers... which is why they have the copious amounts of time that modding would require.
I firmly believe that it will never get to the point that one of the mods goes ban happy and only lets the people they like stay around. I have a feeling a specific few of the mods would even protect against that, having been on the opposite side of the ban-hammer at other boards.
