IRC Forum w/ CmdrTaco & Hemos Tonight at 8pm Eastern
Tonight on irc.slashnet.org in #Forum Hemos & I will be hanging out answering users' questions. This is your chance to ask about the moderation system, story selection, or the technology upon which Slashdot is built. (No Biz questions please ;) It's been a long time since we last did this, and we're hoping we can answer questions and get some feedback on some new ideas too. We'll see ya there.
Cyber what? Cyber-sex?
God, I hope not. *shudders*
[SIG] It's like putting a moose in the blender -- a recipe for disaster!
would that be GMT, PCT, ECT
Why is it that you guys are constantly tweaking and fiddling with the closed moderation system with the purpose of improving discussions, and yet you continue let the editors (namely michael) troll their way around it?
Face it, some editors (michael) constantly put up wild, hysterical headlines with their own two cents in the story that concludes the world is coming the an end. Isn't that the definition of flamebait? You guys are essentially baiting users to read and respond, in a very Enquirer/NY Post way.
Why is trolling from the editors less worse than trolling by the users?
And it seems to have gotten worse lately...just look at the Red Hat story today.
In short, don't you think you guys should follow some set of standards or professionalism?
