Need help! Urgent!

[Gedas]

Please delete this topic later, but I desperately need help from someone who knows how to moderate a forum. Contact me in skype zalgiris4ever please. It's urgent!

Why don't you just post any questions here? I can't see anyone taking the time to add you to Skype.

Well, look:

How do I ban a person in such forums? I am the mod, I know how to delete posts and topics, but I don't know how to delete.

[J@3]

Well when you're a mod you can't just ban people unless you have access to the admin toolkit and your own password to it. The admin toolkit will be at a seperate address, and in the NLSC's case I can ban people but only the admin can delete them, so you might have to get the admin to sort it out.

[Gedas]

Well yes I'm just a mod, but I can't even find a way to ban them.

[J@3]

The only way moderators can ban people is if the admin has given them access to the admin toolkit, there's no button on the actual forum you can press that bans people, you have to log into the toolkit and add them to the list of banned users. So unless the administrator of that forum has given you an access password and the URL to the toolkit, you can't ban people.

Wow Jae, being a moderator sounds more complicated then it looks. Anyways does every moderator here have access to the Admin's toolkit?

[cklitsie]

I don't think so, because there's some mods out there for the less busy and more serious sections (like 06 technical issues or older nba lives) but they're more like mods that answer questions because they have a lot of knowledge about those specific subjects.

Nope.

So I can say your momma looks like Steve Buscemi on a bad hair day and you can't do shit about it? Then where's the satisfaction of being a mod? You crushed my dreams.

[J@3]

As far as I know it's just Andreas, Matthew and myself with access to the admin toolkit, but we have our own seperate moderator log-in, Andrew has an admin log-in which lets him do much cooler stuff than us.
