Mod/Admin for a month

Hypothetical situation. Lets say you are selected as a moderator/admin and in a moment of insanity you have said yes to the offer, so what changes would you bring to Paklinks. Select a section and tell us how would you make it a better place. Put yourself in administrator’s shoe and give your opinion based on admin’s perspective, not user’s.

PS: Keep it objective and don’t try to use this thread for mud slinging.

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

CuteGirl:- Sub-mods is an interesting idea, how you propose to handle complaints against sub-mods then?

SimplyMe:- Lets forget what OTHER would do, talk about what would YOU do?? Keep in mind that we promote Paklinks as family forum.

Hashmat Usmani:- Qibla zara iss par mazeed roShni daalye kai awaam-unaas ko aap kiss tarah mazeed tehzeebdaar banaye gai. koi gharelo tootKa, koi taweez.

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

par logon kai sharafat kai paiMaanai mukhtalif hotey hain, kuch khaandanon mai bahu sussr aor daiwar sai bhi parda karti hain aor kuch khandanoun mai isko daqyanoosi samjha jata hai. aap kyo sharamsaar hote hain iss per, jab unki apni deedon ka pani mar gya hai!

PS: Zara haath hola rakheye, yahan aksar ko urdu-e-muhala mushkil se samajh aate hai aor aap chalai urdu-e-moula mai khitab kerne! kher hum tarjuman ban jatey hain.

So I take you are talking about life threads when you said you will ban all topics which one can't discuss in front of their own family. Interesting.

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

i would make sure everyone opens each thread with salam nadz123, you are the most stunningingly beautful creature to ever grace this planet, and we are ever so priveleged to have you grace your presence on this site, this site would be useless/boring/crap *please insert any negative word of your choice* without you...thankyou so much for beng here, and we thank your parents for creating such a masterpiece, we love you and are here to obey

:lifey:
and make sure they type it while they are down on one knee.
And they kneel before they post.

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

I would make 2 new forum .

1-pervession.
Ppl who are horny, can assume a fake ID to go in and take frustration out. Leaving life1 relatively clean. (oopss did i say that with out assumed ID :( )

2-issue resolution.
some ppl from real life, hmmm ....like few wise women..who have proven record... and one dude(pm---its my idea so I need to read all masaladar stuff) should have assumed id, who ever have a real issue should come to that room with assumed Id to seek "real advice" from those selected ppl.
I am a BIG fan of many ppl on GS, we should utilize them to guide ppl who are dumb like bricks.

playStation: briks don't get upset you are reason this place is so much fun.

bro, i did that for a purpose. i know no one will agree with me and i wanted to adress u in a way...coz u seem to have good grasp of urdu language.

anyhow, it was just a hypothetical Q...i dunno how muchh u know about the threads i am referring to. i'm sure majority of us will not discuss those issues within our families. **

There's alot of mudslinging going in in WA/PA/Military affairs. Mods should intervene & clean threads/issues warnings & infractions/ban members early enough so that threads don't degenerate.

And policies regarding insulting other members/using bad language/trolling etc. should be transparent and their implementation should be objective leaving no room for errors/subjectivity on the mods part.

*P.S. Have a clear policy regarding India Pak i.e. is it okay to insult (a) India & not Pak, (b) both Pak & India (c) neither; are Indian posters (a) welcome on the forum, (b) unwanted (in that case better to ban as soon as you find out that a poster is Indian). *

India-Pak discussions tend to get heated. Maybe having a couple of Indian mods might help in creating a much more balanced environment for discussion.

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

I would continue doing what i do, just with a thicker skin

oh wait...... :D

Re: Mod/Admin for a month

I don't know what I'd change. Over the years, GS has developed a lot and most of it is pretty positive stuff. Its really cool that we have such an awesome project for the Pakistani community, because there are few venues, whether online or offline, for pakistanis to meet and talk.

I might try and make it more folksy, and have different names for some of the forums, but that might make it into that other website with articles and discussion - chowk.com?

I'd add in a weekly newsletter or magazine, something that can even be emailed out - it will spread and add more members to the site, because even though GS is HUGE, there are a lot of Pakistanis who don't know about it.

Also, I'd probably do some real life advertising - like have blogger meetings (which karachi metro blogs does), and have tables at different fairs like ISNA, etc.

Perhaps you should have opened this thread in feedback, if ye wanted serious replies
