THE GOOD SHIP MAINTAINER HAS SUNK. WOULDN'T YOU AGREE?


[+] serious ballot by jappy
ACTIVE Fri Jun 22, 07 - Wed Mar 17, 10

Yes, I think LCD had reasonably good intentions when he put the maintainer set up in place. Unfortunately, it's not exactly working the way it should. Kiki abuses the system constantly, has been asked by half a dozen people or more to knock it off, I block her for about a year following agrarious abuses, take the block off and not 24 hours later, what do you know, she's hitting me with negative karma again for 'repeat choice' on a ballot, no clue what that was about, the choice wasn't a repeat, considering the user that added it had added HIS first.

I've messaged LCD on several occasions in the last couple of months asking questions about this whole thing, and he ignores me, so I'm forced to air this out like this. Here's how the system could work better.

1) Users should not be allowed to delete long time users' comments ballots or choices.

This has been abused a LOT, I added in tongue in cheek responses on ballots and find them being removed, that's a total fucking crock of shit. Whoever the supposedly 'impartial' maintainers are have no problem allowing ballots that bust my balls on here, but God help you if you dare mention something about certain OTHER people on here *cough*Kiki*cough* who, I'm guessing, just happens to be one of the wack jobs with the SPECIAL maintainer powers to remove anything they want off the website.

Hell even after showing LCD where Kiki had logged on as a user to post to one of my accounts, she is still allowed to be a maintainer, which totally goes against the very rules LCD himself wrote, that's real rich, might as well just get rid of your rules and admit it's a biased crappy system that relies heavily on favoritism and very little on actual content.

Oh, but I digress, I'm a little off track here.

You want the system to work? Fine, you make public the name of the person and what they are removing from the website, to ALL the maintainers, that way there is a checks and balances for what is going on. This little secret Mason's Society of bullshit has gotten out of hand.

What are your thoughts on the matter?

The Maintainer system can work if there are some changes made.
The system sucks and should be totally scrapped.

I've got more ideas about improvements, but A) I'm tired, and B) I highly doubt LCD is willing to hear them anyway, considering the lack of response I've already gotten.

So go right ahead and commence the myriad of cackling support for the flawed system, brown nosers, it will give me something to laugh about after work tomorrow.

And yes, this was, in part, a response to your negative karma for what I said, rightfully, about Kiki's bullshit behavior.

Maybe sometime when your done riding around on your white horse trying to save every liberal female on this website, who, by the way, don't need saving, you can take the blinders off and see what is really going on.

You have the aucacity to remove a comment about one user but you allow THIS ballot to continue along unscathed, by arguably the most pathetic worthless scumbag user on this website:

Ballot id=114780

Thanks for your "impartiality."

Appreciated, and noted.

Internalcolonel was about one of the best maintainers ever! (early days anyhoo :o) Helped by the fact there wasn't any American political agenda involved.

Isn't relevent, just blowin' my own horn. :O)

I agree with you jappy making the activity of Maintainers public would force them to think twice before abusing the system.

This more sounds like a personal problem you're having with Kiki.

Kiki needs to knock it off. I agree with you completely on that. You're not the only one with that issue with her.

All I know is, I approved a Guest comment in this ballot that demonstrates why some things should be removed and need to be removed.

I've been accused of things that I have no involvement in. Right? Yes. Of those things that I was accused of, I've always made the suggestion that at anytime, check with LCD and feel free to ask him. If you have nothing to hide, then there's no reason not to let LCD look into it and verify it or not in private.

But if you look at some of the stuff that still manages to make it on here, some of it is very abusive and not really welcome, so there needs to be a way to remove it (in addition to the approve/deny guest comments). Make it public and all you do is make that person (Maintainer) a target for attack.

A certain individual seems obsessed with favorites and rules, but is that person really someone that should be setting any kind of moral tone on those issues? Not at all. I'll leave it at that.

You can go in and see all of the wiped comments, so if someone wipes your comment, just send it to LCD and ask him who did it. Or, copy it and post it again. But, it sounds like you know who is doing it Jappy, so this is a different issue.

Certain people on here are going around claiming they are being persecuted. We all know who she is. Yet everytime she claims one of her comments was wiped, there is NO evidence of it, because those supposedly wiped comments have never once been found in the wiped comment section. What does that tell you?

It seems to me that everyone complained non-stop when there was so much spamming and aliases going on viscious attacks (remember the time one of them made over 800 spam ballots in one night!).

So which do people want? Do you want someone to run crazy on here spamming and making hundreds of cruel attack ballots, or do you want checks in place to prevent that from happening. When it was happening, so many complained and screamed that something had to be done. It was. Now some of you are still unhappy.

I don't mean you at all Jappy when I say this, but some people never seem happy...you know who you are.

As and FYI, I just checked again in the Wiped comments page, and there has not been one single comment of a registered user wiped in the last several days. Just FYI.

I am just getting back into web programming right now, thanks to a project that I am working on. I will see what I can do after the project is over, despite the rude and insulting comments here.

Patch, I"m sorry, I just...I really can't read through all that

Then you shouldn't Aya. And I'm sorry, but I cannot believe that someone would post a comment like yours. Why comment at all Aya?
by patch22us on Sun Jun 24, 07 8:33am [+]

All this shit going on, and *I* was expelled?!

"Then you shouldn't Aya. And I'm sorry, but I cannot believe that someone would post a comment like yours. Why comment at all Aya?"

It was my lame attempt at humour, and secondly, you went on and on, and on about maintaining and user status. If it was about China or geopolitics, I would have paid more attention. But you kinda blathered on and on about this subject, when really, only a succinct reply is needed.
