I have not been here long enough to make a decision based upon past and current activities.

Regarding the Mods, more than likely it is a volunteer job, and they do it the best they know how. Some probably do it better than others just like the DJ's of this board.

I feel that the board Admin should have a policy which standardizes or provides guidance in goveranance. Mods should not rule based upon their personal opinion, they should rule based upon board policy, meaning Mods might not like the contents of the post, but as long as it stays within boards policy, the post remains as posted.

Also, I do not think or believe Mods should publicly post of sanctions being place on a poster, I believe an email or pm should be sent to the poster in violation, to correct their thoughts and civil discussion should be created to clarify policy between board and poster.

Also, the board members need to show respect to the title status "MOD", whether or not they like or dislike the person holding the title.

Again, all disciplininary action should be discrete, and communicated in PM's versus posting it publicly.

Have a great week all

Ok hers a sure fair way of improving the zone let's have a vote of what mods should stay and which should go! That way it'll be fair on us all! We also should have nominations on who should be the next moderator and so on... Mjza is constantly striving to gain membership, BUT, on the otherhand, Mod ship is the biggest downfall to this site. Think about it? If mods cannot maintain the site at 10,oo members, then what about 30,000... 40,000 and beyond? Pure chaos.

YES		36.4%

So the complaints about mods deleting post is just unnecessary if y'all had taken time out and read the rules then all these complaints would have been to a minimal.

People the zone is for everyone so why are we making turning this into a MODS vs Members issues , communication is important if we treat each other with respect then we should be good instead of always ridiculing each other .

---

The common theme that seems to arise is the problem of peoples post being deleted but I guess most of the members didn't read the rules post by the admin which clearly states and I quote ..

WHERE MEMBERS ARE IN BREACH OF THE FORUM RULES, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MOVE, MODIFY OR, SCRUB POSTS AND/OR BAN OR TAKE AWAY THE POSTING PRIVELIGES OF OFFENDERS.

SUCH ACTIONS WILL BE TAKEN AT OUR SOUL DISCRETION AND DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION, WITH OR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING OR EXPLANATION.

no disrespect to jb, ur one of the hardworking mods, but the rule is unfair, post should be deleted at some DESCRETION

for example, wat if i make a post discussing the bad about ur religion or culture? others may agree with what im saying,are u going to delete my post because it hurts ur feelings?  thats not fair, if u do that u have issues, u need help,

ITS SIMPLE, LIVE WITH OUR WAYS AND WE WILL LIVE WITH URS, THE WORLD DOESNT REVOLVE AROUND YOU, WHEN U CLICK X, UR BACK TO UR NORMAL SELF, IF MEDIAZONE GOES DOWN UR BACK TO SQUARE ONE

and ppl may look at this and say"oh its just the internet, u dont have to take it personal" but these are the problems that are facing us today, everyday we have ppl over our backs, wheter its the government, ur boss at work, ur parents, the law, everyone wants to be in control, everybody wants to be on top of their game

teamwork is the key thing,each one teach one, u cant be the one in control of whats going on and censor our opinions, what if u never had the power to delete it, It wud be staring at u right in ur face and u cudnt do nothing about it

What I find easiest is to argue the content of the post, and not argue with the poster.  This looks like a diverse group, and with different values, lifestyles, and morals...instead of judging the poster, about their character, challenge their belief of what is posted, and agrue the content, and together the banter of posts about topic will provide insight as to the paths we all have travel....with greater respect.
