August 1, 201114 yr comment_120744 Would have to make the selection process fair though.This, but if people aren't chosen they shouldn't complain publicly...Ask the mods by all means, but once they tell you why, you're not allowed to take it any further than messaging a mod...
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120746 Would have to make the selection process fair though.Indeed. Which is why I think a voting system would be the best way of doing this. Yes this is just a fun little theme park forum but often you guys have expressed how you want the forum to run and how we haven't met your expectations.I think the best and fairest way of doing this is for members to private message me the two members they think would be the best choice to be moderators on TPM. Which means everyone has a potential shot at running the forum, not just the members who post the most frequantly. Will need to okay this with the rest of the moderator team but I think this is the fairest way of doing it.The only issue is it could become a popularity contest which is not what we want.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120748 The only issue is it could become a popularity contest which is not what we want.People have to post a clear and concise reason why they think the person they have voted for should be chosen?If you vote and don't post, your vote gets discounted...
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120749 We'll have to make this poll public, so all members are aware that their opinions are going to be heard. And we'll need to designate who to PM and we'll also need a way of upholding this "Mods Have The Final Word" style selection, otherwise more breakouts could ensue.EDIT: Agreed with Benin. There needs to be justification behind votes to prevent favouritism/reasons like "They're cool and really really nice". We don't need "nice" Moderators.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120750 What would be good is for mods to go with who ever votes etc not look at someones vote and say god no. Have to give everyone a fair chance. Maybe also do people who haven't been a mod before because if they have then its a bit unfair being given it again and taking the spot of someone who could be a very good mod.

Maybe also do people who haven't been a mod before because if they have then its a bit unfair being given it again and taking the spot of someone who could be a very good mod.But naturally, if someone votes for a member who hasn't ever posted or been in chat or signed in since 2007, then we can safely say the Moderators will do the right thing and ignore that vote?
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120754 Agreed with both points. So who do you guys want to pm their choices to As Nicky has whispered in my ear, create a fake account for people to send the PMs to...
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120755 I agree with Nicky lol. And yes of course if someone has been active in a very long time it won't count.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120757 That's another vote for the fake account suggestion. And at least then all the Mods and Admin can vote as one of them won't need to collate all the votes themselves.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120762 That would exclude most people then. Why don't you give people a chance? I mean now people will get rejected and not have a chance. Once again you disregard the points being made.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120767 Let me say it in a better way An example of this would be if a member is not able to maintain neutrality when resolving disputesNo one can be neutral can they? And might I add a lot of people have had disputes with people.As for disregarding the posts I meant the ones about sending the nominations to a fake account. Mods and Admins could then vote as well making it fairer. And usually it is you and Marc disregarding points made I mean how long has it taken for you guys to consider this?
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120770 I know someone who is neutral at all for when I tried to tell them about an incident they just passed it off.
August 1, 201114 yr comment_120773 I did have a rather long rant here but I have decided to be the adult. That post you made Holly says more about you than you realise.
August 2, 201114 yr comment_120839 Just a quicky - could we update the LC12 subthread thing to be called "LC12/The Swarm" or something - just so people know exactly what we're on about by referring to both names.Helps the general public and new members as well, is all
August 2, 201114 yr comment_120850 Wait a mo, why has all the stuff from last night been deleted?See this is why I brought this up in chat rather than straight on the forums... I was actually bringing up a good point and now I'm worried that nothing will be done about it cos it's all been deleted...Can we have some clarity please?
August 2, 201114 yr comment_120851 You're going to have a facepalm in a minute Benin. It's on the TPM feedback forum. HERE.I wonder if you'll still find an excuse to put yourself in the right though. ;)Banter aside, it should have been discussed in this forum from the beginning, I'll move them over to here seeing as it is a forum issue and not a Thorpe Park Mania one.
August 2, 201114 yr comment_120853 Why do we have TWO topics with the same name? Not gonna be looking at the sub-forum heading am I?
August 3, 201114 yr comment_120878 I've had one vote through PM so far, please feel free to message me guys.
August 4, 201114 yr comment_120901 Don't know if it's too early to give feedback but from what I've seen and talked about I would like to say you guys are awesome!
October 5, 201113 yr comment_124298 Hi There,I'd like to know when CWoA Mania will be ready please?Thanks a lot
October 6, 201113 yr comment_124300 Unfortunately due to lack of intrest when you compare with tpm, there are no plans for the launch or cwoa mania as of yet.
October 6, 201113 yr comment_124302 Unfortunately due to lack of intrest when you compare with tpm, there are no plans for the launch or cwoa mania everEdited for accuracy. Why you keep pretending that CWOA could happen in the future is completely beyond me. Just be honest
October 6, 201113 yr comment_124309 Unfortunately due to our lack of effort, there are no plans for the launch of cwoa mania as of yet.Edited for accuracy & truth
