Wyoming
Head of the Graveyard Shift
I left for school this morning with a firm belief that everything in the Miami forum was running smoothly.
Then I get home late tonight to find that everything went haywire, because no one thought that what my co-mod speed_cochrane had to say was anything to listen to, especially when it came to trying to get threads back on track.
This has happened in both the Spoiler Thread, and the Emily Thread. Now most of you have been good posters, and don't think your efforts to help have gone unnoticed, because they haven't. But there are a select few who like to ignore what we have to say and keep doing whatever you want.
This will no longer be tolerated. When a mod tells you to do something, wether its myself or speed_cochrane, we need you to listen. Not only is it your responsibility as a poster here at TalkCSI to do so, but it is incredibly rude, and INCREDIBLY insulting to both of us when we try to get these threads back on track, so that the people who want to talk about spoilers can go to a thread where they won't be bombarded with "SQUEE so and so did this and now they're going to get together because that just SO has to happen!" And the same for the Emily thread. Posters want to talk about Emily, not David. That kind of thing.
Also, this wasn't something that just got us irritated all of a sudden. This has been graduating over a long period of time, and after talking with my co-mod, we both feel that it needs to be addressed. If there is still a constant problem we will have absoultely no problem with shutting down threads for 24 hours, or however much time we feel needed with absolutely no warnings. And after that, if trends continue, there will be official warnings handed out. We don't want to do this, we pride the fact that the Miami thread generally has no big issues, but if we have to we will.
Please read carefully and respond so we know you read it. Thank you for your time.
