    Post Count Should Never Determine User Ability.

    Age doesn't matter on how good a forum is... I kno an 8 3/4 year old who runs a pretty darn good forum. It is about Harry Potter and I personally dont go there (cause I don't like Harry Potter) but it still desighned and maintained perfectly. Age should not make a forum any better or worse than how the forum is designed and maintened.

    I think you are way too technical Ganondorf. This place is here to have fun and talk about Nintendo. Not to criticze on why postes count on being a moderator. If you think this place is a good Nintendo sitem, but isn't a good forum cause you have to post to be a moderator is a crazy thought. Only people who post and show they kno alot about Nintendo should even stand a chance of becoming a moderator. You can know every thing there is about InvisonFree but not post that much and never, ever become a moderator.

    I think the polices here are great. So does almost everybody else here. It is set ap perfectly for me and everybody else here to enjoy and everyone mostly thinks it is great. Then you come around and state you know so much about invison free and should become a moderator but you can't because this place is wrong cause you dont post enough. That is just crazy talk...

    I, personally have made a bunch of quality posts... but i should not even be considered for a moderator. Know why??? cause i dont have enough postes. I can be the most active, know everything, and read every forum but I (OR ANYBODY ELSE) WILL NOT BECOME A MEMBER UNLESS WE POST ALOT OF QUALITY POSTES!!!

    ^I could not agree with you more. I mean, you challenged them to think outside the box. Why? So you could become Mod? Or because you just felt like challenging them?

    I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but this topic is seriously stupid. I'm just saying, User Ability-such as being able to lock/delete own posts/topics should actually be determined by Post Count. High else should it be determined? mods dont have enough time to go and look at EVERY SINGLE POST made to see if EVERYTHING is considered a High Quality post. Therefore, Post count is a great way to see who is loyal to the forum.

    Thank you C and Ultra (Hey, you're both Bowser. :P). Age has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with moderator status. I for one, know 18-year-olds that're immature goof-offs. And I know, as Ultra said, younger kids with far more maturity than the 18-year-old. While it's true that age helps to influence the maturity level, it should not be what is judged. That right there is discrimination. So what I'm saying is: You shouldn't judge mods by their age, but they're maturity. Age greatly affects maturity, but age still has nothing to do with it.

    :D :D :D :D :D :D Thank You Other Bowser and Yoshi! :D :D :D :D :D :D

    I think this conversation is just about over and I think we have kind of won the argument. If you don't like the way the forums are run ganondorf -- Just Leave.

    I don't see any more reason why this disscusion should continue on...
    CASE DISMISH!!! :thumbsup:

    Paul's dumb Alex is cool

    18 year olds are TOO serious. Expecially for this board. This board allows some spam(just to be more fun) So I say a good age for THIS board would be 15 or 16. Like I said earlier, most people here are 14.
    18 is too much of an age difference. People who are 18 or older don't remember how akward the age of 14 is! -_- :P

    I am 13 and think an 18 year old would be TOO mature 4 this kind of forum... atleast most 18 year olds. Like Ramen Hood said... this isn't a board for extremmely mature people and most 18+ year olds will have a hard time fitting in unless they act less mature and think about how a 13-14-15 year old would think... :|


    I AM A BIRDIE!!! :thumbsup: :D :D :D :woot:

    Ya, not that thats a bad thing, but the age difference and maturity difference would not settle to well. Plus, they have very different views...

    Its not because this place is nintendo, but its because of the fact that we all just chill out and hang around here. Everyone knows everyone (just about) and theres alot of playful laughter and stuff going on here. I know when I come here, I always laugh. Especially in the Official Chat Thread and Hotel Nintendo.

    After reporting several things to an unnanounced MOD, he said that as soon as i was Moblin rank he would nominate me for MOD position, and thats fine, but personally i dont want to be a MOD, i want to be seen as an equal first of all, i have every issue of nintendo power that was ever published, from the first one:

    http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0751/top.gif

    Which my uncle collected for me untill i was old enough, to the most recent issues. I love the nintendo fourums, and my favorite and newest thign to do on those fourums is to hang around the Newcommer Game Help board, and the Technical support board, so i can help people. On the invisionfree support fourumi love to help people there, i have read all there is and i know the IF SF like the palm of my hand. I am 18 years old, and soon i will be going off to college, and i will probally never be able to get online the ammount of time i can now ever again. Now i want to bring up the story of "Mez" from IF SF. He joined, and he was elevated to the highest rank achivable by a normal person Support Team with 76 posts. I want to be elligable, for Support Team rank, or another rank, as anyother higher ranking user would be. I want the staff to look outside of the box.

    I want to see a fair and just process without considering post, and user group. I want to see how mature and how well the Staff can think out of the box, and without other challenging factors, and act as the staff of older age act. I want them to become just for once older and make a fair judgement as if they were so. I am challenging them.

    Yeah. I agree because do you think that members will do nothing but spam to reach a high post count.
