Everyone has mod tools

What would you think a forum would be like if every single member had moderator powers?

Seen this happen before. I installed a hack a while ago that gave people the option to 'ban' people. The joke was that it banned themselves for the selected amount of time. Was a great lot of fun.

Sounds hilarious.



In all seriousness, I don't think it would be a good idea. Too many chiefs and not enough indians is always going to end in disaster.

chaos i think would be the outcome



all those little long running fueds and grievences would resurface, so many would be banned there would be only the minor members and the lurkers left

Well if nobody had ban powers...

I bet everyone would be editing each other's posts, deleting them or moving them to weird forums. I bet threads would be locked and unlocked hundreds of times. Lol



Someone should make a forum like that. Of course it would be a disaster area, maybe that could be the name

 

[Kasynlie]

That actually sounds like a good idea Nebulous. I wonder how long it was last though.

It's sounds like it would be a free for all with members banning people they don't like. Editing posts, locking threads and giving out infractions left and right. TBH, it sounds like great fun but I don't think the forum would last very long

 

[IcarusForde]

It sounds interesting. I wonder if I can do something with a subforum on one of my sites. Now I'm really interested.... Let me get back to you guys on this.

 

[Flurry]

Whoa.. I suddenly had the brief vision of a site I know of letting that happen. Even more chaos then usual would happen there!

 

[Urban]

I can probably pull of the disaster forum. LOL. It would fun to do it.

 

[Serenade]

I wouldn't allow, banning of course.

They would be locking/unlocking topics, etc.

Do it! I'd join

 

[Urban]

I've been caught up in life what should i allow? Every thing beside no banning?

Sounds good. I wouldn't allow access to everyone's details either (ie email addresses, ip addresses etc)

 

[IcarusForde]

Yeah, that's a good idea.

 

[ThaBawse]

This sounds really interesting... I could easily start it off using Forumotion and get everyone on here that wants to take part in it on there...

 

[Jazzy]

I'll join any forum that's willing to do this!

 

[The Dragon Master]

I second that.

 

[4wheelforums]

Might get old real fast

 

[Jazzy]

^ I'm willing to go on a short ride to have some fun!
