zedmelon's Journal: moderation III

Wednesday, 10 September: Constantly playing "Catch Up," I'm once again getting set to fall behind. Mod points for three Wednesdays in a row. I just made the final changes to my last moderation-oriented journal entry yesterday, and I've already got more points.

That's funny, I don't actually recall giving CmdrTaco a hand job...
;)

As usual, I'm open to suggestions.

• I found this "+1, Insightful" post by falsification as a result of reading RobertB-DC's journal, which has helped me spend two points now in the past week. I'm not sure if I would have bothered to moderate it if someone else hadn't given it a blatant "Offtopic," but it doesn't matter. Many comments more offtopic and less constructive have been modded up. As the dad of a very charming fellow who has taught me many things about myself in the past eleven months, I'd like to offer that moderator a big FSCK YOU.

  Weird... I refreshed my page of falsification's post above, and the mod ratio remained the same, 80% Insightful, 20% Offtopic, but the score of the post went up by one.

  Also, I had to post as an AC or lose the point I gave to falsification. If anyone with mod points wants to bump it up "+1, Funny" (or even insightful), I won't mind. ;)

  Another AC reply to the same post, with a bit more thought put into it.

• Snaller got me with a very bizarre post. "+1, Funny."
• Wolfrider made a post which had me torn between "Funny" and "Insightful," since I actually think
  Slashdot Google Bombers is a much better potential name for a band than plenty others out there. Since "Funny" doesn't boost karma anymore, I gave him a "+1 Insightful."
• Sure glad I didn't wait too long to use my damn mod points.

  Moderation is stupid! Slashdot is stupid! The Internet is stupid! Computers are stupid!

• bleh. I'm stupid.

Well, according to the FAQ, moderation points are randomly assigned. Still, I've been granted moderator access for three consecutive Wednesdays. If I don't get points this Wednesday it'll be difficult to argue against the position that it's because this time I didn't utilize all of the points I was given.

yes the lameness filter forced me to un-caps some of what I typed. GAH!

I guess you need a better lameness filter - GAH!

A true lameness filter wouldn't allow you to spout such ridiculous claims as the drivel in the caps-laden post above.

...since you refuse to remove that t-shirt with the target on your back.
