Whoever you are, you have no idea what this site means to people. Then you swoop in and take away a mod from us, you think we had enough do you?
Your not just an idiot, your playing with peoples lives. Hope you sleep well at night and if you ever read this and decide to give a shit, how about asking people who actually use this site what we need and what should happen.
sir, I don’t know where this site is going but i wish you luck with whatever you are trying to do to keep this site up and running. You don’t know me but i am just a silly girl who wanted this place to be good and helpful.
so last time i was on before i took my year leave, the last admin or mod was going to make me a mod. Is there any chance of that happining with you aboard. Would love mod of chat and topisc on site.
I’m happy help.com exists and I can read posts and leave replies.
I never use chat, the refresh doesn’t bother me, etc.
I have no idea what your job is like or what other responsibilities you have. Perhaps if you shared with us your situation we could figure out a way to help.
1- throw the google map thingy it’s a it slows the website.
2- delete the avatar history, allow everybody to upload only one pic that will help with the space consumption ( can do that by giving the pic of the avatar as the id of the user hence everytime they upload a new pic it will overwrite…)
3- fix the avatar i know it doesnt need more than 30 min :P
4- delete all posts that are older than 2 years or 1 … this should extremely help with the space and speed of the website and stuff
Wow. So your the new Admin. Welcome. I’ve heard much about you and I’ve only been back for 3 days. I can tell you its not all good stuff - but that’s not what I’m here for.
I’m back and willing to Mod. I still have all my abilities, although I don’t have access too the Mod-site. I have been Moding for the last 3 days I’ve been back. I was originally appointed by Jeff, left due to life issues, and then brought back by KT.
I would like to get to work with you on making this a better place. Right now it seems like this place has been left to die and many people are worried. I have a few suggestions:
1, Avatars.
2, Bring the old chat back. It is not working like this right now. People don’t stay banned and the current Mods are being bullied.
3, Bring back live update.
I know your bosses aren’t giving you much resources and nobody wants to take this site on. That it is a black pimple on the side of cNet, but it could be the shinning example. The whole community (what’s left of it) are willing to help you.
wow, do you plan on doing anything here or are you just for show?
no offense but I haven’t seen any improvements since, well, I haven’t seen any improvements at all.
Hello, I would like to know if you ever get a chance to come on and see what is going on here at (Help). I lot of complaints are surfacing and you seem to be either 1) too busy to care, 2) lack the knowledge on how to fix/handle the situations, 3) wish you never agreed to be an administrator or 4) unable to cope. Can you please fix the few problems that the community is asking you to fix before they get out of hand and become too perplexed. If you need help there are ppl here that are willing to lend a hand. Please do not ignore this.
Thank you for your time.

oooooooh and I think the good people of help dot come rather be slow than have to refresh the page everytime they post something….actually i KNOW they would rather be slow, so what do we have..
1. Avatars
2. Bring old chat back
3. Bring live update back
4. Convince your boss to bring someone who actually does something useful here..
yo helpyyyy!!!! Hey, gettin really sick of having to refresh the page. I know everyone else is too, but I think you could delete some things that don’t work already to make the site go faster, not the ones that DO work. Delete the search for posts feature, or maybe the maps like nante said. And the tagged notices (at least that’s what I think they are) since those aren’t working. Also, I made a post about what features would be cool on help. A lot of people replied, and even though it changed subject a few times, there are some great ideas on there. here’s the post
Yeah come on, really why not remove the mapes feature or something?
the instant replies was very usefull, refreshing the page after every reply takes up so much time it dosent even make a diffrence if the sites a little faster…
A couple of people have said you expressed an interest in the “petition post” I posted. If you would like to discuss it just let me know when, maybe we can meet up in a chat room or somewhere. Thx.. ‘b’
Hello, welcome to help.com. Nice to have a new admin around :)
I have a small suggestion, as you asked for some in the new admin post. How about having like some “templates” or “sticky notes”. These would be accessible maybe from the FAQ possibly? And would have posts that aren’t possible to comment on. One would be “internet safety” and somebody on help.com has made a post with every suicide hotline from hundreds of countries. That would make a great one too. Its been suggested before, so I just thought i’d mention it incase you found it useful. Also i’m sure your not short of help but I’m open to any requests for help, I don’t mind. :)
Take care.
I was just looking at some recent posts and their seems to be an increasing number of people having problems with internet security, and this is my idea, I would suggest you make a helpbot and advertise Symantec which is great internet security, that way you are helping others stay safe but you are also making a profit for each post created that helpbot replies in!
helpmod i would like to complain about the amount of moderators available, the current moderators are overworked with all the trolls of this site, this is why i recommend you hire some more modeators, other users and i feel help.com is loseing control and we feel that a rise in moderators could bring help.com to normaility.
Hi, I have just banned s*xgod about 15 times from chat (check the logs from a few mins ago) how can they come back so quickly and what can be done about it? Thanks. Is there a way to send these messages that is not so public? Best wishes
Hi, thanks for the modding, I’m getting on when I can. Removed a rather foul link tonight, it shocked even me. I have looked in the new room, it looks good, it seems far better. However my badge is not there haha. So I’ll stick to where I can do some good for the moment, but I like it. Best wishes.
Hello helpmod.
I would like to complain about one of your chat moderators who goes but the name of sophie.
She would appear to be rather careless and doesn’t think or check before she does it.
She banned me from the meebo chat because I was ’spamming’. When I asked another of your moderators, Tangledupinblue, what had happened she told me she would ask Sophie about it.
Apparently she ‘misread’ the chat logs and banned me. I think this rather careless of her. Perhaps you can do something about this because I find it rather shocking that such a thing has happen.
Many thanks,
Tears x
Rich warmly autumn hue,
Potential for love and celestial beauty unwavering reflects from you,
Endearing intelligence and contagious smile ascending me,
His name is Helpmod,
Mon Cheri. :’]
Make me a fucking mod. I wrote you a fucking poem.
Can I be a mod please, I have been on help for 2 years and I hardly have arguments with people and I would treat everyone fairly in accordance with the terms of service or whatever they are called now, I tried contacting you on twitter but I probably messed it up because I don’t get twitter.
hello helpmod, a member told me to contact you when i thought i was ready to be a moderator, well i think im ready and here are my reasons
I report everything I see that needs to be reportted
I help the mods out
help other users
Welcome new users to the site
and some people say im a friendly person,
i hope you consider me in the next choosing of the mods
I know you get spammed with mod requests, so I will make this one short and sweet, when you are recruiting mods in the Australian time zone (currently +11 GMT) if you could please consider me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Other than that, it is great to see the improvements you are making to the site. Keep up the good work, you are making this place really worth coming to again.
Wow, I didn’t even know we had a new admin. I thought you were a bot or some shit.
Anyway, Bogdan is an awesome dude. You should totally make him a mod. He’s the right kind of guy for the job, and he’s available for a timezone that needs to be covered, so think about it.
hello helpmod, i heard you were recruiting new mods, well id like to nominate a user, penguin boy brian (i think is his current name) he is always friendly towards users and his replys are very memorable. he is also good friends with some mods on here, :)
hi helpmod, i hope your setteling into help ok, awesome mod choices btw couldent have picked them better my self. haha :D, anyway just thought id pop in to say hi. :)
Hi!!! Welcome!!! I’m a little late welcoming you, lol. I have a suggestion. I think you should make Bogdan http://help.com/user/239820-bogdan a mod, as he lives in Australia, he’s online when a lot of the other mods aren’t, thus covering a time (usually about 4am to 9am or a bit later, GMT-6 hours) when most mods aren’t online, and there are alot of trolls. He’s also fair, has been on help for 5 months and knows it well, and is very responsible and trustworthy, ask anyone.
So that’s it, I guess. :)
