Hiya Dawnie.. hope the studies are going well.
I used the term moderate in it's generic sense, not to indicate a job function as I am well aware of the distinction between the two things on SH, so my apologies if I caused widespread confusion
There are many very experienced chatters on SH and I'm sure they could be used as a resource to help keep things calm and orderly in the public rooms.. bit like SH's own version of PCSO's I guess

And, not everone wants to do all the admin stuff that comes with it..
So in effect you are saying these new type of helpers would get the ability to warn people and remove people from chat as and when they please without ever having to explain themselves to admin or validate their actions
We wouldn't have to document everything that we do as chat OPs?
No notes to make, no posts to make and no pms with admin :?
I think you might be on to something

Certainly not! My reference to doing all the admin stuff that comes with it was in regard to maintaining rooms on the site and the like.. the 'higher order' and more complex things that the Ops do.

Noooo Room hosts don't do that, do they?

If anyone has any abuse to report, they can always pm the details to a chat room Op. There is a list of us here
Let us know the room name, server number, time of incident and nature of the abuse and it will be dealt with by one of us or by Admin.
Most of us log on daily and we are all happy to help ;)
I have updated the list now so that you can click on the name to go to their profile and contact the Op of your choice!!
:? :? :?That'll explain the reason why every time I log onto the site I'm finding three or four forum pm's asking for help that were not there when I last logged out.

[To take GnV`s suggestion....wouldn`t it be easier if the opp came in and when recognising a substantial amount of the regulars in the room, took it on trust that these people were capable of deciding whether or not the room needed closing ??
Of course if the opp is unfamiliar with the occupants, they could proceed as normal...
If this were done I am sure that a lot more regular chatters would far more inclined to help opps out in every way and opps would have less arguments on their hands
Coo !!! that lot must be worth more than tuppence !!!
totally agree with that,and i`m sure it must happen anyway and quiet little wellbaved rooms just potter away while the ops are sorting out riots elsewhere....
or heaven forbid....they might actually be chatting with their friends or off posting in the forums...
back to the original topic....
so whats wrong with a no whispering message??
would you walk into a packed bar? not say a word tell some girl nice tits? another you got any knickers on?
and expect to pull??
all you`d gets a slapped face!!!!!!!!!
ok so u shy walking in the bar by yrself....say hi ...have a look at profiles...and get the basic details,what they looking 4.....where they r..
then chat away and try to be nice....mind when you say hi to a couple...they gonna say hi back n go off and perve yr profile n pics......if they want to talk to you and theres something interesting on your profile ....you r halfway there.....
now thats enough little secrets out the bag!!!!
if people offend someone...even by accident they get booted..sounds fair to me...if they stepped out of line in a pub they`d get worse..
Coo !!! that lot must be worth more than tuppence !!! :wink:
and so`s all that...
I agree with almost all of what's being said on both sides of the argument. Almost.
Yeah, it's confusing, I know.
Thing is, that there are ignorant prats on both sides of this argument. Yes, there are people who can't take 'no' for an answer. Then there are those who go around sticking their noses in where they've not been asked at the slightest provocation.
I get as pissed as anyone at the kind of bloke (yes, it almost always is one)who just comes into a room and starts telling he cammers to 'show us yer tits!' etc. I get equally as pissed at the kind rules xxxxxxxxx who take two long-time friends making flippant comments at each other and start making threats on behalf of one of them. Or who boot newbies without any kind of warning or explanation or who are constantly flipping up warning notices. I got threatened with the boot earlier in a room for asking someone very politely if they'd be showing tonight. And, yes, it was someone I knew well. She had to defend me to the room host who jumped down my throat and started 'yelling' at me. After my friend told him he was out of order we were both told to go elsewhere if we didn't like SH's rules (you already know my opinion of those who blame the site for their choice of rules in a room).
It seems like I just want to defend those who direct, and this is most empahtically not the case. This site, however, is about bringing together people who follow alternative philosophies. There is room for both these choices in chat, but I still think that it's so easy to just ignore the line of text from someone you don't want to 'hear'. If it was voice chat & you actually had to listen to them it would be so different.
I'm sorry, I've forgotten your name (was it Flower?), but the comment about walking into a bar & yelling 'get your tits out' getting you a slap... The other side of that coin is that if you sat in bar in your sexiest lingerie playing with yourself & using a dildo I doubt you'd expect to be left alone to do it. The result would also be jail time, never mind a slap.
It just seems to me that you have to choose to get annoyed by someone whispering to you or making an occasional comment (and, yes, I'm aware that's oft-times not what being complained about). After all; how many times have you missed something that you actually wanted to read because things can go past so quickly?
MOD EDIT: normally the use of that word in the forum would bring about the thread being locked. As you are obviously unaware and just on a rant it has been deleted. It's very much overused and never appropriate in the context of a website!

Sorry 2'sC & Flower; I was trying to pick out who it was from quotes-within-quotes very late at night/early in the morning
To the editor; No, I wasn't "on a rant" (I wasn't haranguing anyone and don't think I was being bombastic) & used the phrase because it's what the type of person I was describing has been, in turn, described as by several people in chat. If I were to call a particular person by that epithet I can see that being offensive. The word itself, though? You're getting into slippery & censorious territory there, my friend, and I speak as one who had family murdered by the Nazis. BUt that's a whole other topic.

Bloody time-outs 
Just replied to Flower & lost it because I got signed out.
I just want to be quite clear that I do not think that anyone's opinion is less valid than mine, which was, after all the point behind my post.
I'm not talking about some mild-mannered philanthropist who 'voluntarily' and politely reminds us of rules. I'm talking about the ones who get a wee bit of power with a boot button and spend the rest of the night jumping on the mildest infraction of their interpretation of a rule and then blame the site for 'forcing' them to do it. The phrase I used is fairly common for that type of person.
Etymologically it would be more accurate to say "rules-fascist" but I didn't coin the phrase.
Snap!.
Again, I in no way ever implied that anyone's opinion is less valid than mine. I mentioned my family's history because I feel that the censoring of a word which was not being applied to any individual and was, in the context, in no way related to the Holocaust is wrong. I replied to an edit, fairly explained (although I still object to the 'rant' accusation) made by a moderator and tried to state my reasons for it.
Oddly, this backs up some of my original argument. If attention hadn't been drawn to the comment by someone enforcing a rule then I doubt we'd be having this discussion. If directors & whisperers were equally ignored unless complained about they'd soon get bored & stop. If someone's persistently doing it and it's calmly explained to them rather than having big warning messages flashed across the screen then things would doubtless go much more smoothly in getting them to stop. Especially if it's someone who doesn't know they're breaking a rule or some host's particularly rigid interpretation of it.

Blimey !!! I really think that likening people who voluntarily remind you of the rules ( that you agreed to abide by, when you came in here btw ) to nazi`s, is going just a bit too far icon_

I have involved myself in discussions with both sides in the argument and I am beginning to think that I should keep my big mouth shut !!

And I`m speaking as someone who never had any family murdered by the nazi`s !!! I suppose in your eyes this makes my opinion less valid

If anyone can't abide by the rules of the site, as they agree to do when signing up for it, then the reminders and warnings are perfectly in order. The fact that some people need more forceful warnings doesn't make any member of the Admin/Mod team behave in a fashion which can even come close to what happened in Germany. It's offensive in the extreme.
Now.. this has gone on long enough and if it continues there will be some more forceful action taken.
