| | DUE TO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES PART DEUX |  |  | Sunday, July 6, 2008 (9:56 PM) (I'm feeling relieved) |  | So yea, I'm back, finally.
My "glytch" turned out to me more complicated than originally thought, and then turned out to be simpler than anyone thought. Ended up doing a lot of unnecessary things and running around in circles.... blah...
So here's what happened: While in the middle of playing WoW (shut up) the computer decides to shut down on it's own and reboot. Suddenly I get this warning alert that "NT loader is missing or corrupt"
blah
So I figure this is easy enough to fix, so I throw my backup disk in and go into repair mode, but the computer won't extract the files from the disk....
blah
So figuring the disk is bad, I call the manufacturer and pay money to get an official factory restore disk. they ship it out within a week and I try the repair again. Computer won't extract the files from the disk....
blah again!
So I take the whole thing to the place where I bought it (think Best buy, but wearing red) and find out that even though I purchased protection for the computer, the protection only covers hardware issues, not software, so it'll cost me 130 bucks to reformat the drive.
BLAH!
So I leave the computer there and the guy tells me it'll take two days (just to be safe) and they'll call me when it's done.... Two days roll by.... three days.... four days.... Every call I make has the same answer "We're still running tests... it looks like you have some bad ram.
BLAH-DE-BLAH BLAH!
"Isn't ram covered by my protection?" Sure it is. "Cool, find the bad ram and we'll figure out what to do"
So they set about finding out just WHICH stick of RAM is bad... I've got four sticks in there, they are telling me that two are bad.... So after another day and a half of "checking" the RAM they tell me that they pulled the bad stick of RAM (suddenly it went from two bad sticks to one) and tried to reformat.... it didn't work. Same problem, no NT Loader. "Sorry, we've tried everything. There's nothing we can do. But we WILL refund your money!"
BLAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! *smashing my hands on the keyboard*
So now, after having my computer in these chuckleheads' hands for a whole week, I'm right back where I started.
Blech
So I pick up my crippled computer and bring it home and decide to hit the phone book.
After hitting the phone book I decided to actually open it and see if there are any local computer repair places. I find one closer than where the chuckleheads are and call them. I explain the whole situation and they tell me to bring it in.
After a few hours they call me and say this: "We found the problem, one of your sticks of RAM is bad. We took it out and reformatted the drive. It's ready, you can come and pick it up any time."
Wait, what?
Turns out the chuckleheads pulled the wrong stick of RAM... that one was fine, it was a completely different stick that was bad. After pulling the bad memory, the software loaded with no problem. They even optimized my drive, installed the latest service pack updates and set my homepage for me. THEN they told me that my RAM is under a lifetime warranty and I can get the bad stick replaced for free! And on top of that, they charged me 40 dollars less than the chuckleheads did. I've got extra money now! These guys ROCK!
I guess the bottom line is after two weeks of pulling my hair out I took the computer to someone who knew what they were doing and they resolved the issue in 6 hours.
So let that be a lesson to you, boys and girls, The big fancy department store may look good and fancy and all that, but they don't know CRAP about computers!
Anyway, I'm back, TED is safe and restored to his previous self-imposed greatness, and the videos will be resuming soon. I'm tired.... lol |  |  | 32 Views | 10 Thumbs Up | 6 Comments |  |

| | DUE TO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES.... |  |  | | Wednesday, June 25, 2008 (9:19 PM) |  | Hey kids! Buliwif here!
Some of you may have noticed that I've been a bit scarce around here over the last week. Most of you probably didn't... lol...
Anyway, if you're wondering why I haven't been commenting as much or posting bulletins or new videos it's because I've been experiencing a few minor technical difficulties (you know, when you get that marvelous blue screen on your computer that tells you you're screwed.... yea, that one)
Not to worry, though. It was just a minor and rather inexpensive glytch that should be cleared up within the next few days. In the mean time Erica is still fully active on the laptop and making her usual amazing videos.
So don't worry, I'm not hiding. Just chalk it up to Ted being a hardass and deciding he wanted a vacation.
yea, that works. |  |  | 40 Views | 20 Thumbs Up | 11 Comments |  |

| | THE MYSPACE FILES: BLOGS OF WEBSITES PAST... |  |  | Monday, June 2, 2008 (4:21 PM) (I'm feeling s-m-r-t) |  | The following is one of my older blogs from my days on Myspace. Rather than writing about my day or whatever was on my mind, I had a hankerin' for writing actual articles. What follows is an essay on civilization entitled:
CIVILIZATION, or SOPHISTICATTY...
Civilization. A word that, in a sense, is an oxymoron in itself. From the beginning of man's time here on Earth, he's sought to find refuge and safety in the presence of others like himself, only to discover that things don't always work out the way you planned.
Man is an odd creature. If you doubt me, just ask any woman. No doubt she will set you straight in short order. Your average man is a jumble of conflicting interests, and more often than not will choose the interest that most conflicts with his own well being. For example: A man is given a choice - pay the phone bill or buy an X-box 360... well, who really needs to talk to other people when you can be playing Call of Duty, right? Man, as a race, is little different. More often than not, Mankind will choose the easiest or less inconvenient path, rather than deal with the unpleasantries of life. I doubt I really need to give examples here, as I'm sure you can think of several off the top of your head. It seems, on the surface, at least, to be somewhat self destructive, the way the human race conducts itself, and in some ways it definitely is. Of course there is another side to this.
Refuge and safety in the presence of others of his own kind. That's what I stated at the beginning of this entry. Man has an irrisistable urge to congregate into tight spaces. Look at any major city: Residential blocks filled with thousands of people, seperated by mere inches of wood and drywall. Condos and tract houses and apartment buildings - all veritable sardine cans overflowing with human life. I'm feeling crowded just thinking about it. But that's how man chooses to live. Indeed, that is how man feels most comfortable. That is progress. that is Civilization.
Wikipedia's primary definition of civilization reads as follows: a civilization is a complex society. Technically, anthropologists distinguish civilizations in which many of the people live in cities and get their food from agriculture, from band and tribal societies in which people live in small settlements or nomadic groups and subsist by foraging, hunting, or working small horticultural gardens.
So, basically, people congregate into an area, share ideas and beliefs, and they begin to develop. As more people join the community, industry blooms, business booms, and yet more people come running to get in on the action. Soon you have a thriving metropolis, and everyone lives happily ever after. Well, sort of.
You see, Man has a nearly fatal flaw in his character. While man craves the company of others, he is also, by nature, extremely territorial. As civilization grows, man withdraws. The larger a community becomes, the more protective man becomes of his belongings. He draws into himself, becomes reclusive. Don't believe me? Read on.
Here's a little experiment to try. Name any person who lives four streets over from you. Can you? How about two streets over? How about on the corner of your own street? Your neighbor? Now go ask your parents the same questions regarding their childhood homes. Now go ask your grandparents.
Now obviously I'm not there to hear the answers as given, but I'm willing to wager that your parents probably knew, on the average, about three times more people than you did when they were children. I'm also willing to wager that your grandparents knew practically everyone in the town when they were young. No, i'm not suggesting that you are insensitive to your surroundings, I'm just pointing out the natural course of civilization: as society grows, involvement within that society dwindles. How many times have you heard of a small town where everybody knows everyone else's business? Now name me a large city where the same thing can be said?
Interesting, isn't it? Unfortunately that's just on the surface of man's fatal flaw.
Wikipedia gives several definitions for society. According to Wiki, Civilization can also mean the standard of behavior, similar to etiquette. "Civilized" behavior is contrasted with "barbaric" or crude behavior. In this sense, civilization implies sophistication and refinement. In a sense, this is true. As society develops, a sense of "morals" also develop. In a small town, people tend to greet one another with a smile and a kind word. Hospitality is a common phrase, and everyone more or less gets along well. As towns become cities, however, that mentality tends to change. Take a walk down any street in Los Angeles or Chicago or New York and see how many people smile at you and say hi. Is this a sign of sophistication and refinement?
As one examines the evidence, an interesting pattern seems to emerge. Man is a solitary creature, savage and brutal. He lives for himself and no one else. But soon feelings of longing emerge, and he seeks the solice of others of his own kind. He meets others and a group is formed. The group soon becomes a tribe, the tribe a village, the village a town, the town a city, and so on and so forth. Man sheds his savage and brutal ways and becomes "civilized". As the cities become larger and "Civilization" crowds in, however, Man begins to revert to his own ways. He becomes more territorial, more aggressive. He becomes prone to anger and rage. Violence towards others takes a turn for the worse, and soon society begins to collapse. In the end, man is once again solitary.
Of course, I'm not suggesting we give up life in the big city and live in teepees, but it's truly interesting when you can take a step back and notice the pattern. Check it out for yourself. Take a close look at the world you live in. Look at the faces of the people you pass on the street, or the people you deal with at your job, or the other drivers next to you on the freeway.
You might just find yourself having an overwhelming urge to stop the next person you pass, give a big smile and say "Hi"... |  |  | 41 Views | 0 Thumbs Up | 0 Comments |  |

| | PROOF THAT ALIENS EXIST???? |  |  | Friday, May 30, 2008 (7:56 PM) (I'm feeling compelled to laugh) |  | So there's this guy in Colorado by the name of Jeff Peckman who claims to have captured legitimate footage of an alien (yes, the extraterrestrial kind, not foreign) peeking in through the window of his Colorado Ranch home.
He held a press conference in his home town releasing a still frame from the footage to the press. He is also, coincidentally, trying to form an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission that will, I can only surmise, handle all affairs regarding wayword aliens? Maybe they will have communications equipment set up so they can "phone home".
At any rate, this is the still he released to the press:
Oh, I know what you're thinking, "Why just a still frame? why not the whole footage? why not just post it on YouTube?" Well, it seems our industrious friend has decided to opt the footage for a big budget documentary, which means no showing the footage until it gets released, at which point you can rent it from your local Blockbuster Video for 4 bucks a pop.................. yeah.
Is it real? We'll let George Lucas decide. |  |  | 63 Views | 4 Thumbs Up | 3 Comments |  |

| | WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLET? |  |  | Monday, May 26, 2008 (10:32 PM) (I'm feeling my way around) |  | Where the Hell have I been? I have no idea. I haven't been posting anything for a while. Got no specific reason for that. I just haven't. I've got some big things in the works, but for now I guess I've just been laying low.
I just finished watching the first part of the Andromeda Strain on A&E, which is a two part mini series based on the book by Michael Crichton who you may remember as being the Author of such books as Jurassic Park (as well as writing the screenplay) Sphere, Timeline, and being executive producer of E.R. Oh, he also wrote Eaters of the Dead, which was the inspiration for the 13th Warrior, which is where my screenname came from... hehe...
Well, on to Andromeda Strain... Some of you may remember that this book was adapted to film once before, back in the 70's (the original film was directed by Crichton himself) The new version, produced by Ridley and Tony Scott, stays pretty close to the original, though it seems to happen on a larger scale. Anyway, here's the premis:
A gov't satellite crashes down outside a small Utah town. When two kids discover the satellite and drag it back to town, the inhabitants of the town immediately start falling over dead from some unknown biological agent. A specialized group is then sent in to discover the source of the outbreak and try to stop it before it spreads....
Sounds dramatic, huh? Well so far it's very good and I definitely recommend it. The second part is on tomorrow at 9 PM EST and I'm sure it will be repeated over the next week. Check it out! |  |  | 50 Views | 6 Thumbs Up | 3 Comments |  |

| | RAINBOWLAND MY ASS! |  |  | Thursday, May 8, 2008 (8:03 PM) (I'm feeling very ETERNIAN!) |  | Yea, so my better half, Erica, decides ahe wants to write a blog about how she tortured me by making me watch Rainbow Brite.... RAINBOW FREAKING BRITE! claiming that it was the most awesome show yadda yadda yadda.
Please... Best show? If you like stuck up horses, maybe...
No, my friends. There is hands down one single kids' show that stands head and kneck above the others.... (well, Head, neck and powersword...)
That's right, boys and girls... I'm talking about none other than HE-Man and the Masters of the Universe!
Don't know what He-Man is? Check out the intro!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO1ChfM94yQ (I wanted to embed, but it wouldn't let me *sniff*)
Is that not the coolest thing you've ever seen? MOTU was created back in 1983 as a multimedia project. The intent was to introduce children to the He-Man universe through toys, comics and a DAILY cartoon show. Until that point, no popular children's cartoon had been produced to be shown on a daily basis, but rather weekly on Saturday mornings.
So yea, not only was he-man a kick ass toy line and cartoon, but it was also a marketing masterpiece!
I also have to add here that the He-Man universe has left such an impression on people that they even have a brand new live-action Masters of the Universe movie in the works for 2010!
Can Rainbow Brite say that? THINK NOT! |  |  | 58 Views | 4 Thumbs Up | 3 Comments |  |

| | KYHELL KEEPS TRYING... |  |  | Saturday, May 3, 2008 (4:21 AM) (I'm feeling bored) |  | So kyhell posted a video bashing me and Erica last night. Wow.
Funny that it took 3 days for Kyhell to come up with a response for my video. Oh I know he says he wasn't going to bother until people told him he should, but we all know better. Remember the video with the terrorist beheading? Yea, he quotes my video in it and he posted that BEFORE the video claiming he wasn't going to watch it. Hmmm might want to work on that for next time, Kyhell. Anyway, here's his latest video if you haven't seen it:
here's the url:
http://www.livevideo.com/video/mephiticseven/C72DD7504836481ABE04722620E0FEAC/allow-me-to-retort.aspx
Yea... Now at the time of writing this blog, Kyhell had this video privated, but was posting it in bulletins. That seems odd behavior for such a confrontational video, don't you think?
Anyway, let's examine this video, shall we? And for the purpose of education, I'll be directing the rest of this blog directly at you, Kyhell. First off, I'd like to say that I would love to play poker with you someday, because you show your tells so easily. Without even getting in to the part where I laid out how you would respond in my original video, you spend the whole six plus minutes of this video showing just how hurt you are with your mannerisms, your tone of voice... You were even more spastic than usual, Kyhell.
You talked about your month long involvement with Erica, which you missed the boat on entirely, since she revealed that information to the world several days ago. Then you go on to refer to something I said in my video, which I found very interesting.
You see, I said one line very carefully in my video. No one picked up on it, and really no one was supposed to. You can consider it a bit of a set up on my part. I mentioned that Erica lived with me, here, in california, and that we are a couple "You know - boyfriend and girlfriend... right, Kyhell?" I was very careful to say it exactly like that, and like I said, no one picked up on it but you. I find that interesting. Interesting that you were specific about that part of my video, because how you responded to that particular line was the tell I was looking for.
That line cut you like a knife, Kyhell. You can see it in that video plain as day (for others reading this I invite you to scroll back up and watch that portion of the video again and you'll see exactly what I mean) I got to you with that, Kyhell, and you showed me your hand exactly the way I was sure you would. You showed me that you DID care for Erica. Hell, you probably were even love with her... It must have ripped you wide open when Erica talked to your wife and found out what was really going on... And then kicked you to the curb.
I can imagine how that must have eaten at you. Being who you are, you wanted to get back at her. You wanted to hurt her. When you found out there was a woman on here she didn't like you probably lit up like a christmas tree, didn't you? The gears started turning and you thought you could play the jealousy angle.
Must have torn at your gut again when you found out she wasn't getting jealous.
You say in this video that the whole thing started because of Erica. I'm beginning to think you are right, but not in the way you are claiming. It's because Erica is the one that got away...
But I digress... Your attitude in this video shows that you are hurt. You have made three videos now referring to the one video I made. You are craving attention. Your views are empty views, and the majority of the few comments you ARE getting are negative. You are desperate.
No, you aren't going to get the response video you so desperately want, Kyhell. You've owned yourself three times this week already, and you still haven't realised that you've lost this. There is no winning here, Kyhell. There never was. Your only option here is to walk away. Each video you make on this subject only makes you look worse.
Of course, you could come back at me insisting I prove any of what I said about your feelings about Erica, and of course I have none. It's just speculation. The only one who knows for sure is you, But I don't think I'm very far off the mark.
I asked you to surprise me, Kyhell. You let me down. You don't get your video.
Deal. |  |  | 132 Views | 20 Thumbs Up | 11 Comments |  |

| | THE BALLAD OF DAVID HO... |  |  | Thursday, April 24, 2008 (12:18 AM) (I'm feeling analogous) |  | Hey kids, Buliwif here.
Well there's been alot going on around LV lately, and certain events remind me of something I experienced many years ago:
Once upon a time I worked for a major retail chain that will remain nameless. In that particular store, the turn around ratio for management was rather high, as our store was considered a sort of "proving ground" for management.
Well one day they replaced our store director with a new guy that had actually trained at our store; a tall fellow by the name of David Ho. The upper echelon had high hopes for Mr. Ho, as he had come to our organization from some high margin mucky muck corporation or other, and they expected him to shake things up in our little side of paradise.
And shake things up he did. The same day he started the job, he transfered two managers out of the store and began harassing two other managers to the point where one requested transfer and the other quit outright. He strolled around the store like some wanna be Darth Vader type, striking down employees left and right with the most insulting and finger pointing language imaginable. Needless to say everybody in the store loathed him.
then of course the unthinkable happened. Cash drawers started to come up short during the final counts. Mr. Ho went on the rampage. The thought of inner theft drove him nearly insane! It wasn't going to happen on his watch! People were fired, the most ridiculous restrictions you've ever heard of were layed down upon the entire store... the store suddenly felt like a siberian gulag.
Until the assistant store director, whom everybody in the store liked, BTW, decided to place one of those invisible little pinhole cameras in the counting room unbeknownst to everyone INCLUDING David Ho.
After about a week, the asset protection team came in with a couple of local cops and escorted David Ho off of the premises in hand cuffs. Turns out HE was the one that was skimming the tills. The last I heard of David Ho was that he was managing a Lady Footlocker at the local mall... Fitting end, if you ask me.
Now the obvious moral of this story is "Don't shit where you eat", and I'm sure you're wondering what the HELL this has to do with the internet, LET ALONE LiveVideo.
You're right, it has nothing to do with what's been going on around here... and at the same time it does...
You see, David Ho had a potentially good thing going. He could have easily pawned off the crime on some unsuspecting cash counter and been done with it... But he was an asshole. He made life unbearable in the store, and so others were inspired to take it upon themselves to solve the problem, thus resulting in his own downfall.
Likewise, on the internet, trust can be a hard thing to come by. When you do find someone you trust, you tend to open up to them - let aspects of your life show through. That's fine, really. We all have friends, and we all have people on the internet with information about us.
But here's the trick...
If you are going to allow people to know things about you, and plan on trusting them with that information, DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE!
It will come back to haunt you. Believe it. |  |  | 77 Views | 6 Thumbs Up | 4 Comments |  |

| | VLOGGING 101 - THINK BEFORE YOU FILM!!! |  |  | Monday, April 7, 2008 (7:51 PM) (I'm feeling mortified!!!!) |  | Hi everyone, Buliwif here with a brand new and somewhat embarassing edition of VLOGGING 101...
This week's subject is somewhat personal to me, because I recently fell victim to this video blogging pitfall and I'm emarassed to even talk about it, but hey, if we can't learn from our mistakes, then what good are we, right?
As we all know, the subject matter of the video is vitally important in determining how successful that video will be. However, what people often overlook is the fact that how that information is delivered is even more important than the subject matter itself.
Case in point:
My video entry in the March Collective Soul Challenge received the most votes, and as a result, I was asked to come up with the theme for the April Collective Soul Challenge. Simple enough proposition, right? You would think so, but as it turns out, it was a disaster.
Oh, I came up with the theme easy enough, but when it came to filming it, I had a melt down. First, I kept forgetting what I wanted to say, which meant I had to keep stopping and starting over. Secondly, I kept getting distracted by family members who were just randomly walking around outside where I was filming. So in a combination of trying to remember what I wanted to say and trying to avoid capturing someone in the background, after about 5 takes, I just belted the whole thing out, ran to my computer, edited it as quickly as I could, and sent it in....
This is the result:
Anyone see the problem with this video? I sure did, but not until after it was posted, and by then it was too late. I was devastated.
Here's what's wrong with this video...
1) First off, the delivery is very cold. I sound like I'm talking down to the viewer. "Thank you to everyone who voted my video the best" OUCH! Snobbish, much?
2) Secondly, I'm rambling on and on and on, GET TO THE POINT ALREADY! I've always had an issue with rambling, but there's good rambling and bad rambling... This is an example of the latter - BOOOORING!
3) lastly, I really think I selected my location poorly. I'm squinting through the entire video. and as paranoid as I was bout someone walking through the scene, I STILL ended up catching soeone in the background! This could have easily been resolved by simply moving to another location.
Ok, yea, I'm nitpicking with the third point, but the first two are extremely valid and can determine whether or not you will get views or lose viewers.
While tangents can be great and lots of fun in certain situations, rambling on and on gets boring FAST, so it is important to have your subject matter pretty well mapped out - no I'm not suggesting you write scripts for every video, but definitely know what you are going to say before you start filming!
Now regarding the first point, which IMHO is the most important, AT NO TIME IS IT ACCEPTABLE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, FOR YOU TO TALK DOWN TO YOUR AUDIENCE!!! This, for me, is the single most important rule of filming, rather it be vlogging or hosting a professional hollywood talk show. You are no better than the people watching you, and if you give the impression that you think you are, even for a second, people will tune you out. plain and simple.
Also, no matter how rushed you are to get a video finished, make sure to examine ALL of your footage. When I went back and looked at my other takes, I found enough footage that I could have pieced together a video that sounded 100 times better than that finished video.
And now here's the resulting dilemma....
That video was not posted on my channel. It was posted on the Collective Soul Challenge Channel. People visit that channel who don't subscribe to me, watch me, or even know who I am. Now these people see that video and think "Who the Hell is THIS guy and what makes HIM so special?" In simple words, the damage is done. AND it effects the views for that video. People will tune out and I'm going to guess that no matter how interesting the theme sounded to people, many won't enter simply based on the way I delivered the subject matter. That's bad business for that channel now. If it were a paying gig, I'd have been fired by now.
So think, vloggers. Think very carefully about what you are presenting and how you are presenting it. If you can't deal with what is going on around you, move somewhere else to film. Make sure you check all of your footage before exporting that final vid, and never, NEVER talk down to your viewers.
Now hopefully it can be said that I make these mistakes so that you don't have to... lol
I hope you all find this useful... Now go make some videos! |  |  | 79 Views | 2 Thumbs Up | 3 Comments |  |

| | THE DOUBLE EDGED SWORD OF MODERATING... |  |  | Sunday, April 6, 2008 (12:41 PM) (I'm feeling the fickle finger of fate...) |  | Isn't it interesting how you can feel so strongly about something and CLEARLY not see the other person's POV and then something happens later on, and the big light goes on.... "Ahhhhhhhhh, So that's why they did that!"
So, what am I talking about, you ask? Nothing other than the LiveVideo community moderators, of course. I remember it like it was yesterday - all the arguing about why there are so many community moderators, mods are abusing power, why do we need mods when we can mod our own rooms just fine thank you. Yes, I even got involved in the debate .. Blah blah blah....
Well a buletin posted earlier today made the light go on for me in a big way:
ENOUGH ALREADY LV
Posted by investigate2 1 hour ago
13-14 YEAR OLD GIRL IN LIVE
ROOM, AMIMIZUNO-WITH GUYS
ASKING HER IF SHE LIKES HOW
IT FEELS WHEN SHE TOUCHES IT
ETC.....
ENOUGH ALREADY LV
Wow... Really makes you think, huh? Seems we keep forgetting that there ARE minors on this site who like to participate in activities the same as everyone else. Unfortunately, as we all know, there is no shortage of creeps freaks and weirdos on the interwebnets. Usually the person running the room can deal with situations requiring one of the aforementioned rejects to be rejected forcefully, but occasionally the oddest thing happens, as reflected by this followup bulletin posted by Hundamit:
investigate2
Posted by hundamit 1 hour ago
I just went into her room to help her out and got booted...everyone needs to learn how to run their own live rooms before opening them to the public...
We can only help those that want to be helped...
I tried.
hugs
Hmmm.... Odd... Unacceptable behavior WILL occur in live rooms, that much is guaranteed. Some of it can be overlooked, no harm no foul. Most of it can be dealt with by the person running the room, Natch. But sometimes, for some unknown reason, crap goes down that SOMEONE has to deal with...... "OOOOOOOH, so that's what the lvcm's are for!"
One problem.... They got rid of most of the LVCMs, and when we DID have them, most of them either abused the "power", or had no idea what to do with that "power". Funny how all that happens and NOW a subject comes up that requires action.
Oh, what to do!
Here's an idea, LV... How about round 2 of the LVCMs, only THIS time, why not spend some TIME selecting candidates for mod-dom and then TRAIN them to properly moderate the rooms. The actions described in those bulletns highlight the need for SOME kind of community moderation, but it needs to be done in a way far seperated from the LVCM policy we've seen in the past.
Or something.... |  |  | 118 Views | 14 Thumbs Up | 7 Comments |  |
