I think the abilty to delete posts should be given to the mods also, so that the weekends etc aren't such an opportunity for them to put their oar in.
Do you mean Board Guides?
It's a very deliberate decision of Martin's and the site team that BGs should not be "moderators" in that sense.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

yes i did. didn't realise that sorry.
No need to apologise.:eek:

It's arguable that an extra person or two covering the "abuse" emails/reports at the weekends would be a good idea.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

Well it's my opinion that there should be a spam board opened up. So if a spam thread that has been seen on NEWROUND opens up, it can be quickly bundled off to there by the BGs with a little explanation as to which board it came from tagged on the end.
If it turns out not to be spam, then it can just be moved back."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

The Board Guide Role Description already says they can deal with spam.
They just shouldn't "moderate" on other issues that should be dealt with by the abuse team.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

Lurkers, newbies & general readership need to understand who & what these p*icks are. AND may be the trolls will take the hint that we`re not going to `roll over` and take the hit.......Living debt free, since Sept 08 & Dec 10 :wall:
