|
|
I have to say, and it's not a slight on any of the past mods or Jason or Phil, it was tough to be on here a while back. I just think that venturalakersfan and Alpha have done a great job since becoming moderators on this board. Alpha is doing a great job of lumping together all the piss and moan threads and both have been friendly in their criticism. VLF has done a great job of being a regular poster without the "I am moderator therefore have more credibility than the rest of you cretins" attitude.
I usually don't like these "Official Appreciation" threads and generally ignore them, but LG.net is becoming an even better place than it was before. Great job guys. _________________ MTFBWYA |

It's great to have moderators who try and diffuse a situation instead of making it worse by flying off the handle. Great job guys! _________________ “I’m just a basketball player, you know?

I forgot to that DB as well. Every since I joined this board I assumed he was the leader... it just seemed that way. Now that the site is officially in his hands, things just seem right. Know what I mean? _________________ MTFBWYA |

Alpha? Alpha? Are we talking about Alpha? Alpha sucks as a mod.
J/k Alpha has been doing a great job of merging and locking threads. Keep up the great work. |

Alpha Sucks! Alpha sabotaged another game! Trade Alpha for a plastic spoon!
lol, thanks guys... IMO all leadership has been great past & present.
DB is doing some incredible things to really build on the foundations set by Jason & Phil... we ARE truly part of one of the greatest sites on the net.
btw, this isn't Laker related I'm moving to the feedback forum |

I hope there is no correlation between what is percieved to be a case where the LG forum appears to improve while at the same time the Lakers team appears to worsen. _________________ Rule = win titles

The current mod team is doing great. I think it is much smoother without JD as mod, to be honest. No disrespect to JD or anything, I appreciate his services here and wish him well as a general poster and person. As far as the mod team I think it is good that he is no longer a part of it.
Continue the good work staff. |

^While JD and I do not have the same approach in moderating (and he shouldn't as each should mod in their own manner/personality) I appreciated his work in attempts to keep this place civil... and after being a mod for a short period of time respect him even more. |

Definitely appreciate the good work by the mods.
But something is still a bit off, the team isn't quite championship level yet. And I think I know the problem.
Coach DB just isn't running plays for Uberzev. Poor Zev, you're just not using his skills properly. Last I checked you had him way out there modding the Lakers Multimedia section!?!?! Put him in General NBA at least, get him closer to the Lounge, I mean, damn. I've seen what he can do, and if you aren't going to use him properly, just trade him already for a CL poster to be named later, save us some bandwidth at the very least.
But really, kudos to the mod team. |

Zev has tremendous e-length, but doesn't know how to use his God-given moderating abilities to get the upper hand on Lounge posters.
Uberzev is the Lamar Odom of LG mods. |

By the way, I do like when mods are now explaining why they are moving or locking certain threads. _________________ Courage doesn't always roar.

Ventura and Alpha are good posters and people. Often when that's the case, the transition to moderator is easy too.
I am a fan of both. They are fair and level headed.
Thanks for the effort. All of you guys. I do wish Popcorn Machine would come back at a full time basis though. He had awesome takes and thought he did good job in dealing with some posters who had nothing but hate for Laker players. |
