You're not the only person who's mentioned that. I know that when you click on it, the system is going on when you last visited. So if you hadn't checked in a while it might have resulted in it going to a default setting of no new comments.
Try making sure to check both and then comment on one of your posts when you have done that to see if it shows up when you visit your backroom again.
hey,Indi,I think there is a problem with the site.When I go to the backroom,it doesn't tell whether or not if I have comment or comment replies.Can you help?
I think those of us who do moderate fully understand that it's a job and not an adventure. It is fun, but at the same time something to be taken seriously.
I must be the oddball guy out there (not including Allamorph, we all know he's odd =P) But that kind of goofing around with girls always seemed wrong to me.
And yes I know it's my LDS upbringing, so shoot me. >_> I just don't like to objectify people, girls or guys.
.........fine.Honestly,though,I do not mean to become aggressive,like I do not mean to punch people in the face when they get to close to me(I'm closterphobic),but It seems to happen anyways.Seriously,I didn't mean to offend anybody,well maybe I did,but I'm just going to shutup now. Anyways.......uh........s....o....rr.....y...sorry. Congratulations on the marriage.or engagement.......yeah........I have nothing else to say,and this is awkward,so,I'll be leaving now.bye.
And that will be enough from you. If you have legitimate concerns you can discuss it with me via pm. I have seen the entire chat and it is I who determined the punishment for refusing to acknowledge warnings about behaving in chat.
Your attempts to play moderator and trolling Indi is to stop immediately. I will not tolerate members harassing staff for doing their jobs.

This is all very terribly amusing. I'm so glad I don't have to moderate any chat rooms with my job. :D
What's even more amusing are the people who don't get how easy it is to follow the rules, and complaining and fighting against it only makes things worse.
you really shouldn't use her anyway.nomatter fricken what! WOW YOU GOT DEFENSIVE DIDN'T YOU!? you really are ajerk. i don't care if you're a mod,it doesn't give you the right anyway, + the conversation between Izumi and other people wasn't your business in the first place! if someone does something you don't appreciate,don't use them as a point instead,confront them in a
PM! it's none of anybody else's business,plus,you can't use the "you're embarassing yourself by doing this" cuz i always do it, and it no longer has any affect on me. so HA!
Again, I’ll remind you to not engage in backseat modding, as well as the pointless verbal abuse in my direction. It sounds like you need the same advice which your friend apparently is smart enough to accept. The moment a member brings something up in chat that steps over the site guidelines… it becomes my business. She already apologized for not understanding that and has moved on, I suggest you apologize for trolling my world and do the same.
You see appreciating or not appreciating what she said has nothing to do with it. I uphold the site terms for the entire community. All moderators do this, so I suggest you drop the attitude and stop trying to tell us how to do our jobs. At this point it seems you need to read the site terms in relation to harassing other members. I’ll make it easy for you and quote the relevant part:
No flaming (fighting with another member), trolling (upsetting people for personal entertainment) or baiting (saying things to lead a member into a confrontation).
This is the last time I will warn you to not engage in backseat modding. The next incident will result in you getting in trouble. Please try to actually use your head and think instead of emoting and butting in where you don’t belong.

don't talk about people behind their back,it's rude!and also don't use izumi if you're going to make a point. if you're going to complain to hate being a mod,quit! and don't cuss if we aren't allowed on chat.deli is not a moron.he's nice and smart. intellectual actually. sorry,but that's wrong,to embarass people llike that. THAT'S WHAT PMs are for.
How is it behind her back when it's right here in the open? The moment a member misbehaves in chat it becomes my business and if I choose to use them as an example, it's their fault for failing to follow the site terms in the first place.
Also, you need to learn what sarcasm is. If I hated being a mod I would have never accepted the position. I'm poking fun at those members who think it's some grand adventure when it's hard work dealing with people who ignore warnings.
And sorry dear, but damn and moron are not cuss words. I am not interested in your attempts to defend someone when you do not have all of the details surrounding what happened. So far your verbal attacks do nothing but make you look just as foolish as your friend did in chat.
I suggest you lay off responding to hearsay and stop embarrassing yourself here at my page. Backseat modding, which is a member attempting to intervene because they don't like a decision, only makes you look stupid and ill informed.
I suggest that you do as the first part of my post advises and follow the chat terms. If you don't want to be featured, don't cause problems. It's not that hard to do. You made this my problem by putting it out in the chat, remember that.

I can see why that would be frustrating to you. It isn't clear to members that Adam is not in the chat in a moderating capacity at all. Being an Administrator for him is default since he's the site creator. So he might intervene from time to time, but most of the time he is doing other stuff and rightly so.
This is why he has moderators and when it's necessary he backs their decisions when other members complain. Also, it's part of why I was made a chat Administrator, he gave me that responsiblity to make sure someone keeps an eye on both the members and moderators as well. Just as he takes care of things I cannot, I take care of other things so he doesn't have to waste his time trying to do so.
Like the recent pm notification for dedications. I can help him test it, but I can't actually write the code that makes it work. It's easier for me to see since I've been staff for so long and I know who does what, but obviously you can't see that.
I should probably see about having a staff list made so people are more clear on who does what. It would probably help answer people's questions and at the same time help them better understand how things work around here.
Oh I know. Babysitting is an apt description at times. Unfortunately at this stage I'm likely to issue a warning since this isn't the first time I've seen reports of that member behaving like that.
As for the backseat modding and siding with a moderator, that too is annoying. It's best if people simply sit back and let the moderator take care of it.
Also please note that just as it is not a member's place to defend another member against a mod, it is also completely unnecessary (and appears extremely arrogant) to side WITH a mod against another member.
If an issue comes up and a moderator is dealing with it, whether in chat or on a message board, stay the heck out of the way.
I dont have time to read the convorsation because i'm in class but I know what you mean by job. But hey, sometimes jobs can be fun. I don't know, maybe that's how they'd look at it.
mmm either that or power goes to ace's head and everyone thinks being a mod is THAT entertaining xD jp hehe i dono why i pick at him so much xD it's so fun
it is kinda funny when people beg in the chat. I remember a long time ago someone was begging to be a mod and I was trying so hard not to laugh.
