POLL: Who would like more Admin interaction? - Toyota Yaris Forums

KCALB SIRAY · 08-22-2011, 11:06 AM

I'm not the only one who thinks this community could greatly benefit from having Adminstrators ((YarisBueller and Vitzboy)) around here interacting with the members. The Mod's rarely interact with them as well from what I've been told by them ( not all )

SO, as a friend of mine said, "It's a ship with no captain", what say you?

SailDesign · 08-22-2011, 11:30 AM

I wouldn't mind seeing them around, but have no problem. Things seem to run pretty well without them (sorry, Bueller) and if they've taken a loooong vacation, that's fine.
But guys, do stop in now and again for a chat, OK?

hey, a dead horse! let's beat it with that can of worms that just opened :D

mazilla · 08-22-2011, 12:05 PM

Make me an admin...I'll rule with an iron fist.

;)

Altitude · 08-22-2011, 12:39 PM

I dunno. The last time Bueller surfaced, some key members defected.

Some yes, some no. I personally miss that Etimago isn't still a mod, but I respect his decision and that he still is here.

As a mod it can be frustrating at times not having them here. We don't have the power to fix user profiles that are registered but can't post for example, or approve vendors (which I kinda understand that one). Perhaps they're pretty busy guys. I myself am not here as much as I used to due to the fact I'm running my own business and working another part time job. Hard to find time, and the internet on my blackberry just isn't the same for YW.

I've been trying for years. The first year we went down to Import Alliance I requested a backing from them to get members involved. Didn't get a response. After 6 months of trying I gave up. Luckily, some of the Mod's who are no longer here, helped out as much as they could.

If they didn't care that means they do when they vote

Seems from the limited that actually voted, it's a draw. Very interesting as this site use to be bussling with chatter before we lost a few good men and women.

fnkngrv · 08-30-2011, 07:03 PM

from my perspective they are not actually Admins. They are people that own the site and that is about the jist of it. As for people that have been lost, etc. Well I can honestly say that as the years have gone on the site has lost a lot. There is the Mod issues and even the hack that killed things ENORMOUSLY. Shrugs....what can you do? I personally think that the biggest problem from my perspective is that if you email or PM the admins and it is like the act of God to get an answer or engagement then really why even have the site? Sure it is slick when a site can run itself, but at the same time just because something CAN get along should it have to? Shrugs...it is what it is apparently.

Whoever said "I personally miss that etimago ous not a mod". A big fat +1 to that one!!!

Still, the forum is still up whether the admins actively participate or not so why don't you use it as is, to find information, interact with peeps, etc., and just forget about it ?

Just a thought :)
