I’m not, I’m asking for help. I need to talk to admin but they won’t talk to me. They keep avoiding me. All I want is one conversation with them, but they keep blocking me.
What’s going on?
I need to talk to Jeff, I left him a shout, email, I tried IMing him. He will not have a sit down with me. He blocked my IM, because he doesn’t want to talk about it, but it’s a problem with the site. A concern on my part about the site.
hey, myspace me hun, I wanna know whats up.
-Seraph-
Wow! whats up with that lizzy? I tried to ask them a couple of questions my self and they never answered! is there a way around this? Im gonna look into it you guys do the same
They won’t let me ask for help. I’ve written 5 post and all of them are removed. I’m trying to contact them, but I have no right to ask I guess.
They never response to anyone. They say they work here but never help us. They will remove this too!
they deleted my post too without any information. my post was clearly within the rules of the site… but for some reason… BANG.
I know, all I was doing was asking to talk to admin about a problem with the site,
I had no idea why… and still don’t know why. I just got a hangin’ head sorry and repost after I squeeked my wheels a little.
and right… if you want to post to this thread… better do it quick!!!
No crap, I’m sure they won’t come in here and help, they will remove it.
well.. maybe this time, they’ll at least email you Liz… check it out.
Look people, this is not getaloan.com. It is freakin help dot freakin com. The name speaks for itself. They are in the “help” business. And yet here is a lady who is not getting any help. So someone just.. just help her. And while you’re at it… help me too.
Yeah, help.com, isn’t help at all. Most people just chat or talk about silly stuff.
My problem is, I feel as if help.com users aren’t treated unfairly. When a user is asking for staff, somehow, staff stay on the board but never respond. I need help of understand why they aren’t doing their job.
Btw, both of the admins are in chat, ignoring this post, and all the other ones. That shows you that we as users aren’t cared for.
Queen Elizatron 4000 invited 13 users to read this post 2 years, 6 months ago.
Not to get too involved, but I did try to reasonably deal with your situation and you tried to drag it down to a shouting match. The only professional thing left for me to do, and as I am doing, is to remove myself from the conversation and allow other Admins to deal with you.
But we do have helpbot. Sometimes when I am feeling down, helpbot is right there for me. To lend a metal hand.
As a user, I have a right to shout at you, you’re admin, it’s your job to care anyways and try to do your best.
You let me down. You can’t handle being admin, I’m sorry.
Help.com, is fake. It’s some automated think some guy made.
fake?? noo. please no say …. no say… it is all i have to believe in. :|
It’s becoming a little obvious that you can’t handle being a member of this site, either.
Helpbot is a bot, it’s true Orion.
What issue do you need help with?
I want to know why you never help users when asked in your shout? Admin gets shouts and post daily, but never care to even look at them. We invite you to post, ask for help, and ask about technical stuff on the site, but you never respond to our concerns.
Why do you do that? Where are you when people are looking for you?
okay if you say so. but i still believe…
I’m a Moderator Marco, you should be more welcoming. That hurt me that you said that.
I agree that removing so many of your posts is ridiculous, that makes absolutely no sense. Now that you mention it, I’ve noticed numerous responses that people have given over the past few days being erased; nearly half in one of the last talks I was a part of. It was very odd.
That’s another thing: Some of the chat mods tell people to shut up. I don’t see that as mod like in my eyes, everyone should feel welcomed and wanted.
Write up new rules elizatron 400
You do realize that being an admin on Help.com is a small percentage of our duties at CNET. That being said, personally, I always respond to any shout regarding problems with the site. Also, I remove any duplicate posts that I happen to come across and any that are offensive.
I am sorry you feel that way. I respond to shout’s in my box as do the other admins.
what does CNEt have to do with HElp.com??
That wasn’t very mod like Anthrax.
Thank you for your reply Felman and KT1, that helped me understand.
I understand you two are busy, I’m still wondering about the others?
Help.com is a part of CNET Networks. The admins for Help.com all work for CNET.
SO you really are part of the dark side. It all makes sense now.
My post has nothing to do with that, I feel attacked by that comment Anthrax. As a mod, you should be more understanding about my concerns about the site.
OK… lets stop the name calling.. and droping blame on anyone. There is a perspective of just dealing with an issue (which is after all what this site is about; so I thought). Is that possible in this case. I may recommend that some admin email Liz immediately regarding her issue. In terms of customer service, Cnet would WANT that to happen… they are one of the largest websites in America and don’t need any bad press.
It’s just people that are running this website. Human, falible, ordinary (no offence, I’m sure you’re all wonderful) PEOPLE. They aren’t gods, glued to their computers, monitoring every random thought that flits through here. This seems to be coming out of no where. What’s going on with you today that you are so upset?
“Well I feel that you have attacked everyone on the site by your comments earlier in the chat room.”
That’s the job as a mod, you must be able to handle being attacked, that’s part of the job.
I have disagree. Attacking another user, a mod, or an admin goes against the rules stated in our FAQ: http://help.com/faq#sect6
Naina.. I understand what you are saying… except for one point. When the posts are deleted, then SOMEONE had to have looked at it. And if a post is deleted there should be an explaination. None came to me when it happened to me, and Liz has had several deleted in just the last hour. I understand rules and all… but no communication is poor customer service.
“All opinions are worthy of being heard - we only ask that the advice at least be given with the intention of genuinely trying to help others.”
Mods telling members to shut up, and grow up, is not helping. Members have the right to vent and all issues should have a chance to be solved. No one helped me solve my issues today.
My point of the day
We have tried. What is your issue?
richhills1, Jeff and Liz have already communicated through email, as stated earlier.
Liz, if any user has a problem with any of the mods on the site, they can freely submit their claim using the Report a Post link located on any Help.com page. I didn’t see any instance of a mod telling you to shut up.
I guess I’m not understand why some of your admins still will not have a conversation with me. I’m having a problem with a few of your mods and admins, and I don’t feel as if the issues with them has been solved. They haven’t been warned, nor told the rules of how to treat members of the site. As a member of the site, I’m not pleased with how I was shut off and treated in chat, IM, and shouts by your Mods, and admin.
I feel treated unfairly about being hurt. Shouldn’t I have some rights to be hurt and vent in chat? I was talking to bart and seeking help.
I was told to get over it and leave chat by, Antrax, and Chuyskywalker.
I thought help.com was a safe place to vent your hurt, but I was blocked for doing so.
Why is the rules of the mods on how to treat members on this site not made available to the users????
Yes, admit I get angered easily, but when I was expressing myself and heard all of those comments, I felt unwanted, unwelcome, and unloved. I got that feeling from mods/admins. mods and admins should be the people who understand the most.
lol I love it, I make a simple comment to a moderator, and I get my message erased, but if a mod says something rude to a user, it is okay. What a joke.

I got banned from chat due to my lashing out and anger, but wasn’t the mods lashing out and being mean too?
That’s why I felt so hurt.
Bart should be mod, he’s welcoming, open minded and he looks at all sides of pain.
yea 1 of mine got removed 2 but guys i really need help in my question
I understand what you are referring to and we are sorry you feel that way. A discussion between you and the admin would not be fruitful as the last discussion digressed quickly and accomplished nothing. Please accept this as an Olive branch so we may all move forward.
The admins enjoy the power, so I doubt it. It’s life though, everyone abuses it sometimes.

Thank you KT1 for talking to me, I like that fact you had a conversation with me.
And yes, I’m hurt that I’m not good enough as mod, my pain is from mods rubbing it in my face. I’m sure I’ll hear more about how I failed.

Note= I’m still not coming back, and I still want removed from the site, but I’m glad at least Kt1, and Felman understand where I am coming from. I hope in the future you all can pick better mods.
I’m sorry to the other mods/admins that can’t see their faults.
