I was unaware of moderators closing and deleting your threads in the past but if that were to happen today it would be very easy to rectify. Take for example a thread I closed recently, [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/21432]New YYH RPG Site[/url]. In clicking the Admin Log button in the bottom right hand corner, you can see all recent actions from moderators. The fifth one from the top is the thread I closed. In clicking the Show Details button in the far right Options column you can see who closed it, when and why it was closed. It also provides a link to the locked thread. Anyone MadSci who wishes can browse to the thread and determine whether or not it is spam. If that moderator chooses to unlock that thread, theres an area for him to give a reason. If there was a scenario where a moderator was unfairly deleting a members posts or even closing their threads out of spite we'd all know. We can simply view the Admin Log and check out recent activity. If a moderator was abusing his authority certainly it would warrant a discussion on removing that persons status. With the old system, any moderator could delete a post and no one would be the wiser. The Grail's new system holds everyone accountable for their actions. Except the Doc. I suppose since he's actually paying for this he can ban as many people as he wants. Bandwagon American Since 9/11/01 Loading...
