I mean, really.

Who shoots a fridge?

RealSNR 03-08-2014 12:08 PM

I voted for you, Flop, but like others have said, the important decision is to do what makes you happy. If this job is negatively affecting your posting experience, then **** it.

Lonewolf Ed 03-08-2014 12:21 PM

As few care what I think about most anything, I shall refrain from making a choice. :harumph:

I think you're doing fine. I don't know why anyone would want to be a mod, though. Seems like a pain in the ass.

ThatRaceCardGuy 03-08-2014 12:39 PM

I'm a moderator on a car forum and it's a thankless job. For the most part people will always take issue with one thing or the other. In my opinion you do a great job; that being said I voted yes just because I hate authority! Lol.

cosmo20002 03-08-2014 01:14 PM

This is why only Rain Main should do polls:

Thread title:
Would you like me to step down as a moderator of Chiefsplanet?

Poll Question:
Do you want Mr. Flopnuts to continue moderating Chiefsplanet?

TL;DR..... Ha, anyway, this is the part that sticks out, the boss being happy. If you want to stay, the debate ends on the boss being happy. If you are tiring of the BS, then step down.

I missed most of the drama the last couple months. After the playoff loss I didn't watch a game until the probowl. I almost didn't want to watch the SB either. I went to the hub for the same reasons I went to fatchatter. I like the idea of talking about anything without all the immediate second guessing, insults and other trollish behavior. The lounge is almost as bad as DC, in my opinion. I haven't "left" though. Most everyone has a couple sites they routinely visit, I now have three.

OldSchool 03-08-2014 01:27 PM

I voted that you leave because apparently you had more fun and the community was better with you posting?

Easy 6 03-08-2014 01:35 PM

You've never done me any disservice, matter of fact you've given me timely and honest answers to questions I've posed to you in private.

So I vote for you to stay on.

NewChief 03-08-2014 01:45 PM

If it ruins your fun, quit. Otherwise, stay on.

I've run online communities before. When they began to feel like a job, I stepped down.

Just Passin' By 03-08-2014 02:09 PM

I voted against you for making the poll public.

Hammock Parties 03-08-2014 04:13 PM

The best mod we've ever had. He only beats me lightly, and with soft reeds.

Coach 03-08-2014 04:16 PM

I abstain.

This is a decision that Flopnuts should make, not others, for himself.

On a different note, I had no issues with the moderators at all, and I have met a few of them in person.

Setsuna 03-08-2014 04:24 PM

Having Flop gone give Phobia free reign and that ain't happening anytime soon. Keep the guardian!

Buzz 03-08-2014 05:10 PM

No, your the best thing to come along since Shreddies. Like others have said you really don't see the mods that often, which brings me to my next point, why? Is a job requirement that you stay in the background and just cover up the stink.

BlackHelicopters 03-08-2014 05:12 PM

Never had a problem with any moderator. If it has become a job, then it is time to move on.

Anyone notice this place hasn't missed a beat, and is running much smoother with them gone? Best wishes. No hard feelings. Well, bye. This is purely my desire for the people to have a voice. They elected me once. Let them re elect me, or find a replacement. This base deserves that in my opinion, so I'm giving it to them.

I thought this post wasn't necessary....

As for the poll, like others have said this should have been your decision not everyone elses. Or to some extent Kyle's. If he felt you weren't doing your job it's his place to ask you to step down.

SAUTO 03-08-2014 05:16 PM

GloryDayz 03-08-2014 05:37 PM

I'm think you've done a great job, but your happiness should be #1 in your heart.

I have always been a fan of contiguous term limits for anything that's the least bit political or involves making judgments. So step down for a while if it's not fun anymore, once you're charged your batteries, maybe you go back to it.

But you've been very fair as far as I can tell.

I'm here all the time dude. Unless some kind of stink bomb hits the fan, I try to stay out of people's business. If I delete a mult or a douche bag, I don't make a thread about it, I just do it. Because you don't see people, doesn't mean they are not around. Every one of us has a different style and that happens to be mine, is that a bad thing? :shrug:

If your style makes you happy and you're content with it, along with improving every single day, that's all it matters, and who gives a shit what others think?

Oh I agree 100% with all of that.

Lex Luthor 03-08-2014 05:44 PM

One thing I'll mention is this: I think the moderating team changes the names of posters far too often. In a way that's really an abuse of power. If you piss off a moderator, he changes your name to something insulting.

I don't know if all of the mods do this, if just a few do it, or if you're the only one. However, if you're the only one, then I think you should seriously consider stepping down.

I really don't care who the moderators are. I'm a guest here, and if shit gets bad, I'm free to leave. High moderation or low moderation, I still get what I come here for, and once I don't, I'll lose interest.

That said, if being a mod causes one ounce more stress to you than enjoyment, I'd step away. If you enjoy it and the "boss" thinks you're doing good, then stay. It's really that simple.

That's the river, ice jam. (check out a few of the other pictures from that link) We are on pace for a record year of snow around here. Spring can't come fast enough, I have a bad case of cabin fever.

That would do it, I was making pizza dough and took a quick glance, looked like a dryed up river bed. Is that going to be good or bad come fishing season?

It shouldn't make a bit of difference once the water calms down. With as much snow as we have in the Beartooth mountains this year, that could be late July. :facepalm: There is 127 inches of snow up there right now and it's still coming.

That was my next guess. The time of thread creation and the noticeably absent Gaz option had me to believe that this was right up there with the posters 6am drinking all night snow day thread.

Little disappointed. Mad Floppy is incredibly entertaining.
