| I know I said I'd leave, but on HBM we have a problem. A major problem. This is no one on here's fault. It's the fault of our own members, and I need advice on what to do. On there, I know I'm only a chat box mod, but that means I have to keep peace in the chat box. HAHA! Like it's even close to possible! We've got cussing admins, people who pick on other people and cuss them out, power abusers, in short, bullies. Our problem is that a lot of our users are bullies. None of them are you. You guys have been perfect on there. It's like nothing was ever wrong, and I'm really happy about that. I need advice from you guys on what I should do. I PMed the owner, but she's never on. The other admin who actually takes it seriously isn't on a lot, and she gave up. The other two admins, well, one abandoned us and the other was cussing. You can't handle these guys. It's impossible. No one else from HBM can help out with advice, except for a select few, but their advice isn't the best. So, I'm putting aside the past and asking you guys. You take things calmly. People from HBM get outraged. So, what's a way I can handle this calmly? If there's any website that I should ask, it's this one. I know, a lot f you may not like me, but I really need your help right now. | |

| You could talk to the Global Moderator, Typlo? I don't know much about that, though. If you really like that forum, you shouldn't contact Typlo because he/she may close down the forum for inappropriate content. If all that fails, just leave that website. I'm sure that forum will probably just crumble to pieces (Like this forum almost did in a period of time...) because everybody is fighting.
To put it in a simple way:
1. Contact Typlo 2. Leave the Forum | |

| Typlo may not be the person to talk to about this, Go to forummotion.com and try Talking with Mr. Mario he may be the better candidate for your problem. | |

| Like stated above, talking to any forummotion help is good. But that might take a while, so you should probably stand up to the admin. Don't be mean, but be honest. And if you have to make her hurt, don't make it too bad. Tell the cussing admin that even though you are a chat-box mod, you have a right to speak your mind. Tell her things like; " A good admin wouldn't do this" or "You're better than this, (insert name)". If you're scared, I'd understand, but if Mr. Mario or Typlo don't come soon enough, you have to do something. | |

| What you do is really up to do, you should try and decide what the best thing to do would be. Everyone has a unique way of dealing with things, and my way probably won't be similar to your reflexes. What you decide to do in the end will ultimately help the forum. It might be contacting a global mod, or trying to deal with this yourself. If it were me, I would try to deal with it by myself - just because it always seems to work out better that way. If you can't resolve things on your own, then I would suggest taking it to the global mods.
You've got power, and if people are being rude on chatbox, you need to dole out some consequences. Warn them first, I'd suggest about three warnings, tops, then get serious. I'd recommend a ban for a few hours, if they abuse again, ban them for a longer period of time. If they dare be rude again, ban them permanently. Like Moo suggested, you should tell the admin that her behaviour is inappropriate. Demand respect - politely (xD) - let everyone know that you're serious. If you see another mod abusing power, tell them not to and that it's wrong. Power abuse is never fun and after continuous abuse, members start to leave the site. |

| Since you can't ban the admins, I'll be on as much as I can to help you, Fishy (?). I think you are a great mod, but you can't handle this alone. So you should go to Typlo and talk to him/her. The only reason I stopped being a mod is because I wasn't tooken seriously. I guess I should've sucked it up. I wish I could help you more. | |

| --I am going to join, with my nice face on. Tank you for coming here for help. I will be nice, I can do that you know, and I'll try to help with your problem. Because Mr. Mario and Typlo can take over, but the problem won't stop unless the members, that's you guys, take a stand. And by stand, I don't mean yelling and saying "NO! STOP! THIS IS NOT OKAY!" I mean more along the lines of what Moo said. If all of the members say polite things like that, things will most likely end off okay. If they don't, well, there is always the hard way. (Kidding. If enough members take a stand, things will most likely turn out okay. Maybe have a new admin election . . . If you have those.)-- | |

| so thats what happened, I thought I had been banned. I had already left the site, but I decided to come back, and see if I could help. I doubt it because most people on the site there dont like me. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. | |

| The admin who was cursing was Kasi >.< She never takes anything seriously, and it bugs me so much.
As for everyone else, thanks so much for the advice. I really appreciate it. | |

| Kasi...I've heard of her, but not in a long time. Anyway, I suggest you help the forum by suggesting the rules be tightened up a bit or do something else to help the forum be less chaotic. Or you could leave the forum, but it'd be better if you tried to do something about it. Leaving is the last resort. | |
