Time for a change of mods over at "CoW"

Slime · 08-19-2010, 09:58 AM

seriously, what the hell is this shit

those shitty mods have run that forum into shit for way too long. nobody else has stayed this long, AND nobody else has done such a fucking amazingly shit job at running a forum. so what the hell is with the combination. pass the forum onto new mods already.

at least mcjuicy tries to promote interest sometimes. what the hell is rudi doing.
exclusive thread for lyntan and me to bet on sport, we might as well talk on fucking instant messenger. seriously what the fuck. worst incarnation of that forum by far.

Phil Williamson · 08-19-2010, 10:23 AM

I dunno, I'd say they're doing a pretty good job? It's a lot more active than I remember it being under Boris or Taco at least. And I think it definitely has a different "vibe" from the other two off-topic forums (partially due to the names). The only complaint I have about it is the Simpsons quote thread, and that's definitely not a big deal or anything.

EDIT: hahaha holy shit Chris, go to sleep

McJuicy · 08-19-2010, 10:48 AM

I thought we were friends chris!

McJuicy · 08-19-2010, 11:04 AM

but seriously why do I have to give up my modshit[sic]

Andres · 08-19-2010, 01:38 PM

make me a third mod of cow

bl0ppin · 08-19-2010, 01:42 PM

Yeah, CoW is so boring.

Kevitus · 08-19-2010, 01:50 PM

Let Lohr and me run it.

Damage Jackal · 08-19-2010, 02:17 PM

come on will ya!

Cubert · 08-19-2010, 02:20 PM

yeah who needs a stoner hangout when we can have some super-regimented german skateboarding forum

Damage Jackal · 08-19-2010, 02:21 PM

haha. yeah cow is like the laid back forum where you post stoned threads and talk about your shit. it's awesome.

Yesss please!!

James McCloud · 08-19-2010, 03:58 PM

personally i think we need a fighting game forum, now who do we know who knows about that?

...

* looks around at my raised hand *

oh! well would you look at that

James McCloud · 08-19-2010, 04:04 PM

to be honest i like the cow as is, not to say some other mods wouldnt be just as good or better, heck its not as if any possible new mod wouldnt also allow the most active threads in cow right now

ive always thought it might be better if the forum was more focused, like within the cavalcade theres rudi's sports shack and kyle's gym (for fitness, food, exercise and shit) and the main containing one for the random chilling shit

there could be more mod owned forums within cow, like a test one that rotates until you find a more permanent owner. why not give lohr's lounge (for whatever topic he wanted) a try?

Trooper · 08-19-2010, 04:28 PM

I suggest "Tuna's Crackhouse"

AR-Raven · 08-19-2010, 04:38 PM

imagine me and rudi as mods together it would be so great!

Slime · 06:24 PM

Fucckkkkkk, I got drunk and did it again. Dammit. Sorry everyone.

I got mad when I saw Lyntan said that a certain thread in there was shitty and should have been kept to TTF, because I was thinking "CoW is even worse than TTF, what are you talking about, this is like, you and Rudi's secret clubhouse which is just as annoying to everyone else". But THAT should have been my one post as a reply, not... 10 posts ranting about shit.

I do think CoW should get new mods because its been in the same hands for a REALLY LONG time now (longest yet I believe), but I don't want to run it, and I don't know who should.
Also, while I don't find the current forum interesting, I can't just blame the mods for it... but... I guess I'd like to see more actively creative mods. Like BR and Taco were two really creative guys. Rudi really doesn't do this stuff at all, he just talks about sports really. McJuicy does seem to try to do this stuff, but with a sidekick that pretty much shows complete lack of interest, it doesn't help to get it going anywhere. If he had a sidekick that was interested in making a cool forum, it could have worked out.

But really its just something entirely different from what I personally go for, and I can't rant like a baby when drunk just because I don't find it interesting, especially since others do find it interesting and its clearly just my opinion. Sorry.

Dominator Dan · 08-19-2010, 06:19 PM

I WANT THE FORUM, WOULDN'T THAT BE AMAZING? i would be so nice to everyone, and everyone would be welcome, I would host loads of fun activities from drawing things to RIDDLE THREADS, AND WHOEVER GUESSES THE RIDDLE, GETS A CUSTOM NAME CHANGE, WHOA! YEAH! AND I WOULD COME UP WITH IDEAS THAT ARE SO AMAZING, the forum would be a land of it's own, with crazy rules, like if you said a certain word, like 'LOUD', THAT'S THE WORD OF THE DAY, AND LIGHTS AND SOUNDS WOULD GO OFF, THREAD PAGES WOULD HAVE MUSIC FILES PLAYING, just like that time space goat had KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR PLAYING. seriously consider this omglol

brb festival, i expect changes when i come back monday, space goat plz phone me to discuss the name of the new forum, you know my number

Slime · 08-19-2010, 06:21 PM

hahah

i do also wish the mods could have complete control somehow, so they would be able to do stuff like that. but im pretty sure thats impossible

Dungeon Snake · 08-19-2010, 06:25 PM

put me in charge

Hey man I come up with custom names for everyone

McJuicy · 08-19-2010, 09:35 PM

and thats why there is an art forum

Slime · 08-19-2010, 09:37 PM

no i dont mean creative like art, i just mean like, doing creative things with the forum

but really youve been doing that (with names and at least trying to make different sorts of threads). its mainly that rudi does nothing unless its about sports or lyntan. if you had a fun sidekick it could be cool. its funny that Nick posted in that thread saying you should have a sidekick without knowing that Rudi was already mod, but that's exactly what im talking about.

maybe we should just add a third mod to cow.

also, IMO it would be great if we could give the mods more power over that forum - ability to do a custom background or whatever. little stuff can be funny, as Dan was mentioning

Space Goat · 08-20-2010, 01:33 AM

All you/they gotta do is ask. If it's possible, I'll do my best to make it so.

McJuicy · 08-20-2010, 01:59 AM

ok Ill ask here
make the background look like a cow's skin like all black and white and such
