-1 Irritating
posted Saturday, March 12, 2005 - 07:56 AM (#25996)
This is tynic's idea.

It seems like we need new moderations - the few negative moderations are too overloaded, and apparently there aren't ENOUGH of them.

So let's have some coffee, and talk. What other moderations should we have?

These are my suggestions
  • -1 Irritating
  • +1 Indirect
  • +1 Pedantic
  • -1 Pedantic
  • -1 It's Wednesday
  • +1 Pub Night

Not having mod powers to check the list, how about:

-1 Rambling on
-1 Reply not quoted (especially if you're making a joke)

I still believe that -1 Word Choice would be a good thing to have. Though perhaps it'd be overly easy to abuse.

Make all moderations negative for the next few months. Switch back and forth regularly.

I think we can end the thread with this one. It just says so much.

But, I guess we could always try:

-1 Whining
-1 Moronic
-1 Baseless
-1 Whaaa?
-1 Just plain wrong
-1 You rub me the wrong way
+1 You could rub me the right way
-1 Smelly [goats.com]

Should there be a +1 version of that, too?

I have often wanted a +1 Pedantic mod to reward those who go above and beyond. I usually have to settle for "interesting" (which it's usually not) or "insightful" (which it may or may not be).

-1 Annoying or Irritating or something like that would be useful.

I've also wanted a +1 Nonsensical mod, for those times when something incoherent, but rather pleasantly so.

In Response to porcupine8 (#26050):

Could Phillip let us know which mods are being used most? I guess they are the one that need to be split down to two or three different mods and the ones that are least used can be lost for ever in the void of time.

I feel that Troll and Flamebait are pretty much the same, if a post deserves one it will, 93.87% of the time, deserve the tother.

A couple of +1/-1 mods like Pedantic would be good. Sometimes a piece of pedentry is worthy of a down mod.

For everyone's information if all the suggestions are used that would be 41 options, with the existing mods, 17 up and 24 down.

I'm sure that he can. Whether or not he will is a different story.

Oops. -1 Pedantic.

Wooo! Apparently quotes from the Princess Bride are now obscure references!

Oooh, okay, I got some obscure reference mods right here:

-1 Show me the money!
+1 This could be the start of a beautiful friendship
-1 E.T. go home!
+1 KAHN!

In all seriousness, tor's post should have been modded "Super-Genius", not "Obscure Reference." Again, the fear thing.
