but they weren't before, they were constantly ignored and even people were insulted for making them

I'll try that, but it's the home computer... my aunt and uncle don't seem to trust me enough with it for some reason. I found the thread by the way, Ryudo seems to have merged it with Techical Issues (I don't remember adding to the thread, but I could be wrong) and I never saw the reply as it got swamped by other posts...Crimson Ryan wrote:Neo Matrix wrote:I thought the same thing, but with this particular computer I can't update or install another browser as I don't have the permissions. I'm using IE 8.0.6 though.
Just had a thought it could be a pop-up glitch. Since you don't have permissions I'm guessing you're using a work or public computer which would have a pop-up blocker. Hold Ctrl or whichever key when pressing the Show button and see if that works..
Who did you complain to? I also mentioned earlier that a mod conduct/disciplinary system should be in place before any mods are appointed so that they know what is expected of them. A "What do to when you receive a complaint" system could be another thing to be told to mods.south carmain wrote:@ryan
the problem is that I mad a complaint, a number of others did and no response, we voiced it vocally and nothing was done either, in the end ryudo only left because he wanted to, and most would just leave instead of complaining which will just kill the community, more people would vote if a public vote was set up on the main page and the mods wouldn't want that to happen to them as well, I think private complaints could be something to initiate the vote, for example if a certain amount of private complaints are made with proof then the vote is initiated to gather a general opinion, there should be some rules also that permit an instant demodding if transgressed

Ok, let's use your point-by-point...
- only person who can demote is Yama now: Yes, we established that.
- yama is not on the website all the time, he has another website, personal life and work so he can't moderate the community properly, he doesn't know if someone stepped out of line unless if there is an uproar and he is called to come in: Of course he can't follow the site 24/7, no-one can. However, he doesn't need to be. At the same time if he does want 24/7 dedicated "police presence" then yes, use moderators (who will also be fitting the Dojo around their lives).
- he doen't want to make changes that will piss off the community: Who, in their right mind, does want to annoy people as an authority figure?
- when a mod is being a dick it's a small minority who support him but they are the loudest so it seems to yama that these are the majority while in fact other members have stopped posting or cant be assed to post about it or are scared to be banned (see drama a few weeks ago): See my point here, which says exact same thing.
Here's what I was thinking using your proposed system...
- mod acts out of line
- member sends proof to yama
- yama decides if it's worth a demotion or not, if yes he demotes them or issues some sort of disciplinary action
- yama tells member that action has been taken
