What does MODERATING mean?

[szlamany]

Saw Si with this on the who's online page - I'm curious - what does that mean?

[Hack]

He was performing a task of some sort that only Mods can perform.

Actually, I didn't think that non Mods ever saw that. :)

[szlamany]

Ok - I could have figured that out myself ;)

I was kind of picturing him standing between two opposing "posters" that were about to go postal...

It's top secret shush-shush business. :D


Hack, non-mods see that while mods see the actual moderation action.

Apparently. :D

I would define it as "putting the cap back on the bottle".

Took a second - but I got it :D

Just to satisfy your curiosity, I was either moving a thread to the correct forum, or deleting a "bump" post. Nowhere near as exciting as what you imagined!

Let me explain. Super Moderators are such wonderful people, they aren't actually human, just angels trapped inside a human's body. Super Moderators already had specila powers before getting that title :bigyello:
But that's a secret, and no mortal are actually allowed to know that knowledge :eek:

We should start a "Moderator May" month - where everyone gets moderator status for all of May. Sure we may be able to sticky the Golden Chair thread, lock the entire Classic VB and PHP forums due to "unnecessary performance concerns" and edit each others posts into oblivion... But you know we'd be more mature than that.

Moderating is a term reserved only for use in hostile environments. Suits VBF quite well :D
