QUESTION FOR ALL MEMBERS

Sun Jul 26, 2015 9:14 pm

It's a simple question.

I've been a moderator for about a year and I hope none of you think I'm doing a bad job :lol:

My question is - if you could change or add anything about this forum, what would it be?

No sarcastic comments please :thumbright:

Add some other moderators who are actually optimistic and positive about the club instead of the negative, pessimistic doom mongers who currently inhabit that role :mrgreen:

Sorry that's out of my hands :lol:

Annis, Carl and Owain are your guys for that :thumbright:

I think you'll find we're all positive people, just not about Slade or Tan ;)

We're not all like that, although I don't rate Cotterhill as Worcester knows :lol:

They're still fans who have their own opinions.

A stop to all misleading headlines. I'm sick of searching through BS posts looking for genuine info. Headlines need to be clear and to the point, instead of people looking for hits. It's just plain boring.

A thread that updates Cardiff City's twitter feed each day for those of us who don't have twitter? :ayatollah:

Great post would like to see more positivity and less negativity. By the way i was a mod for 5 years on this forum and weve lost too many good posters over the last few years for various reasons. Shame really. Onwards and upwards. :bluebird:

Maybe update the badge or just add it to the right of the banner for those who rather keep the original.

Maybe we can have a poll to see if people want to update the badge, keep it the same or have both badges ?

Re: QUESTION FOR ALL MEMBERS

Glad someone's asked this here's a few ideas.

1) couple of years ago this forum did an interview with former players legg and I think jason perry. Be amazing if we could have the forum do a load of Q/A with ex players, legends ect. Be a good feature. Being able to put questions to the likes of Kav.

2) some form of competition, maybe like guess the attendance again and win a prize.

3) there is a certain mod on this forum whom I will not name usually just does a copy and paste job from any website and sticks it on here. Usually doing about 5/6 a time. (Sometimes posts stupid transfer gossip on Facebook and when people call bull deletes the entire post) shocking mod IMO

Get rid of Slade out smileys. Breeds negativity. Most do it because they are negative people in general.

I can answer this one.

The forum did approach the club. The general result was that the club wanted there to be only pro-Cardiff City posts on here and, to effect, this to be their official Cardiff City messageboard.

All the moderators, and members when we put it out on here, decided overwhelmingly that this would not be an option.

For that reason, the old badge will stay.

I am hoping to find a way to run a competiton for the MOTM vote. It's difficult because there is no way to find out who has voted but I will speak to Annis and Carl about it over the next month.

This has been mentioned over the summer and I think you'll find it has improved over recent weeks :thumbright:

This!

Haven't posted a new topic on here since people's headlines have started being changed by mods. In fact haven't posted at all on here so since the headlines became so misleading, it makes coming on here to find the interesting stuff a chore.

Understand it generates short term hits so not criticising the reasons, but its just not for me and think in the long run it will put people off posting like it has me.

You're doing ok mate!! No worries there.

Would be great to know who just joined the forum. Just a list.

Also, a mate tried to join and he is still waiting for confirmation. Is there any?? I can't remember myself. I think I just waited about a day and was accepted. Has this changed??
