Steven P. Founder Popular Post Share Posted May 5, 2013 If you have never had a run in with a Neowin forum/news comments moderator and have been here a while, then we're doing a good job. If you have, I hope you appreciate the bs we have to put up with all the time :p Be cool, thank a (Neowin) moderator today! :) 43 Share Link to post Share on other sites
The Evil Overlord Share Posted May 5, 2013 Thanks, :) NOW GET BACK TO WORK! :p Just the excuse I was looking for to stalk a Neowin Mod... Marshall, oh Marshall, <insert psycho music here> :p 6 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Osiris Share Posted May 5, 2013 haha nice image to go with the point :) It might be a thankless job in many respects but I think everyone here appreciates the work the mods, the news team and the owners do, so keep it up guys and gals. 2 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Mystic Mungis Share Posted May 5, 2013 I hate seeing people bitch about mods because it's a tough task and, like you said, it's rare to ever see them getting thanked or appreciated. So yeah, thanks for all the hard work guys! 2 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Obi-Wan Kenobi Share Posted May 5, 2013 Mr. Bond, I do not only appreciate the great, outstanding, wonderful, awesome jobs that mods/admins/gmods/etc, but I respect you all and put you all on a high pedestal. Keep up the magnificent work!!!!! 2 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Phouchg Share Posted May 5, 2013 Sent thanks to a random moderator just now. Am I cool yet? :p Ok, thanks! 2 Share Link to post Share on other sites
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Share Posted May 5, 2013 When I was younger I used to be moderator on every message board I could get my cookies on. :p My feelings were that I'd just make sure everyone follows the rules, and that was the end of it. Everything else was just to make chat and contributions like everyone else. At the end of the day you're all (mostly) volunteers. No incentive to do what you do other than because you want to. 4 Share Link to post Share on other sites

LimeMaster Share Posted May 5, 2013 Be cool, thank a (Neowin) moderator today! :) Guess admins and supervisors miss out on the thanks. :laugh: 5 Share Link to post Share on other sites
The Evil Overlord Share Posted May 5, 2013 Guess admins and supervisors miss out on the thanks. :laugh: and all the reporters, who spend a lot of time phrasing, and paragraphing all those articles... 3 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Chris123NT Share Posted May 5, 2013 I can relate to the amount of BS a moderator/admin must put up with from my various experiences on other sites. It really is a PITA sometimes. But other times it is extremely rewarding. So thanks guys! 5 Share Link to post Share on other sites

He's Dead Jim Share Posted May 5, 2013 We the users.... wish to show our appreciation of the efforts made by the staff, on our behalf. cheers boss. ;) happy may weekend, or something equally pleasant to you :) 4 Share Link to post Share on other sites
articuno1au Share Posted May 5, 2013 Well, I'm faced with quite the dilemma. Either I thank a moderator, thus showing Neobond to be a liar; or I don't thank a moderator and come off looking like an ******* O.o 3 Share Link to post Share on other sites
Draconian Guppy Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yup, mods are greatly under appreciated IMO! They get so much beef, so little reward! 1 Share Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegendOfMart Share Posted May 5, 2013 They don't do it for reward, getting rid of the numpties is reward enough to keep the community going. I don't get this thread, yeah moderators are great but I don't see why you feel the need to make a thread about them, they do it voluntary and they can always walk away if they don't get thanked.

Yusuf M. Veteran Share Posted May 5, 2013 Thanks guys. They don't do it for reward, getting rid of the numpties is reward enough to keep the community going. I don't get this thread, yeah moderators are great but I don't see why you feel the need to make a thread about them, they do it voluntary and they can always walk away if they don't get thanked. Dealing with the troublemakers so Neowin is a friendlier and more inviting place is a reward itself; however, it feels good when people appreciate the work you do. This thread definitely put a smile on my face. We definitely don't do it to have a bunch of thank yous thrown our way but a thread like this is nice. 5 Share Link to post Share on other sites
