Academe back again as "Fascinating"

Ow, my arm! OK, alright already!

purelife · Jul 02 06 10:02

Ouch! Who pinched me?

Ok, Ok....I won't say that aca....word.

Adam_Fulford · Jul 02 06 10:25

So, what makes a person want to moderate?? Is there pay involved??

purelife · Jul 02 06 11:00

Adam, how long have you been on DV?

I haven't been on DV since my IP was blocked from posting. Why?

tenkani · Jul 03 06 03:16

Adam, there's no pay. Mods don't even get T-shirts

IMO, two kinds of people become mods at DV. People who are genuinely interested in improving the community and willing to put up with loads of garbage to that end, and people who use it to boost their own egos and add a sense of control to their pathetic lives.

As far as Jeff's suggestion, I agree completely. Unfortunately, some things are beyond my control.

Adam_Fulford · Jul 03 06 05:42

I see. Those are broad reasons.

I do some moderating myself, but it specifically for a screenwriting forum. Truth is, the extreme hostility of DV people stops me from posting the link to that forum (are they representative of the population? Are the writers, directors, actors, and others who I associate with in person or on internet simply more friendly than most people? With them it is not a given that I should have a handle).[/DIV]

tenkani · Jul 03 06 05:46

Well, yeah, that's why I said people who mod at DV. I mean, in the larger sense, people mod for all sorts of reasons. At DV, the environment is so damned...extreme, that I think it narrows the field a bit. I mean, it takes a special kind of person to make it as a DV mod (and not necessarily in a good way).

I wouldn't imagine you get too many recurrant trolls at a screenwriting forum, hey?

You'd be surprised. So far, so good in that forum.

Someone posted under that sack of dumbness' nick on DV saying that they were her. Others there were claiming that academe is X.

Sorry to bring this thread back to an unpleasant topic. She is just so annoying it makes me super pissed off. Visceral hatred feels weird!

Hmmm. Hatred seems a little strong. Academe annoyed me, sure, a moth circling my lamp might (even scared me. The image that comes to mind is that woman in the movie, "Misery") -- totally unprovoked, she posted crap with my alleged name, as but hatred is something I feel for very few. Gawd, my life of trainwrecks, fiascos, and bumbling escapades -- so many that I'm numb to them -- hardly puts me in a position to play the judge.

Nah. But it makes losers like acadummy who have nothing better to do feel all important and special. It basically just gives her something to do.

Me again from DV · Jul 07 06 09:27

Oh man, someone called up this old thread on DV and it shows acadummy in all her glory: ignorant, insensitive and utterly attention seeking, all the while contributing nothing to the discussion. It was about a women having a period every two weeks. What a loser.

I guess my point is that what kind of drugs do you have to be on to make a mod out of somebody who posts like that. I mean, it's goes beyond the bad judgment involved in selling Babe Ruth to the Yankees.

NO DRUGS HAVE TO BE INVOLVED (ALTHOUGH THERE PROBABLY ARE SOME). ALL YOU NEED IS AN ADMIN THAT DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT, AND THE DV ADMIN FITS THAT BILL PERFECTLY.

ACADEME IS PERFECT FOR THAT PLACE- SHE'S A RANDOM PSYCHO LOSER WITH DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR. IT'S A MARRIAGE MADE IN HEAVEN!

AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, ACADEME IS THE PROBLEM, NOT THE SOLUTION.

HELLO DV ADMIN, ARE YOU LISTENING?

AND AS FOR ACADEME (I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS YOU LITTLE LURKER) GO TO HELL AND DON'T COME BACK. YOU'RE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SKIN.

Academe back again as "Fascinating"
