Due to the constant flux that is the Internet, we have made some changes to the moderation staff.
We wish CasetheCorvetteMan all the best and hope to see him around sometime soon, but his responsibilities are making it difficult for him to continue as a moderator. Sorry to see you move on. But we welcome CSS996 - Chris - as our newest moderator! Let's all hear it for Chris!!! Andy |

As a newly minted moderator, can you do something about those "Reply/Submit" buttons at the bottom of the page?.
I tried to reply to this thread yesterday, clicked the middle button instead of the left button, and created a new thread. BTW, once someone creates a goof-up, how would one delete it? I don't see a delete option anywhere? Perhaps I should've created a new thread for this one, huh? I guess what I'm asking is this; Should "Create new topic" be located inside of a thread. Once you drill down into the thread, that option shouldn't be readily accessible for idiots like me who randomly click things to see what happens. |

Thanks guys. I'll try to be the very model of a modern minor moderator. I suspect my role will be pretty transparent.
LOVE the new avatar SpectatorRacing! Dale, Matthew and NC Kid are in real trouble now! I do agree that even little people like you regular members :tongue: should be able to delete their own posts. I had been wanting that option, but kept forgetting to mention it. Could be a tricky proposition though. Maybe you can only delete a topic you start if there have been no replies. But you could delete a response to an existing reply. Dunno.... That's above my head. Anyway, thanks again. Hopefully I can do right by you folks. And hopefully I don't screw anything up. Chris |

I will look into the delete key option. I thought everyone had it... I guess not. See? No one tells me anything anymore... sniff. deletes would work on all but the OP.
I am sure Chris will do fine. Next up, Moderator Boot Camp. A hard core 10 minute chat on how to use the various admin panals, and what not to touch. I will give you a call tonight or tomorrow night. |

Is that when you change my status from "Master Guru" to 'Moderator" above my avatar? Do I have to stick my hand inside a black box and hold it there, no matter how much it burns first?
Hold me.... I'm scared! :binky: |

Do normal users have the ability do delete their posts within a thread?
I can make changes to that stuff, I just need to be careful it doesn't allow them to delete other's posts and threads. I will probably make myself a dupe account so I can see what the peons... err.. normal users see. My buttons are different. |

I like your software, but thats one thing I LOVE about PHPBB3.
As an admin I can go to any users profile and click "Test out users permissions" Which sets all my permissions to the exact they have, 1 click back to the ACP reverts my permissions to normal. |

Don't change a thing for me. If I don't like what I see, I'll just delete it.
I actually DO have moderator experience. From a dirtbike website, many moons ago. It may amuse you all to know that I got kicked off that site. I have a low tolerance for stupidity. That, and some people just don't get my sense of humor... |

It won't happen right away, the delete button goes to a page that allows deletion of the entire thread. So I have to change who can do what there to restrict it to only that user's posts.
Plus I'm out of town all next week. I'll look into it after that. |
