I don't know if I'd complain, but I wouldn't want my avatar to look like every other one. Its not the fact that she's in the avatars thats the problem, its just that everyone seems to have almost identical pictures of her, and it makes it complicated to see who is who.

My thoughts exactly.

Shes a very attractive woman , model pretty, yet "human" looking, so i dont mind seeing her in the avatars...however, it does go to show that a lot of people would rather identify themselves witha stranger ; rather than put their true selves or a true part of them in there( Not me ). Thats why i have my fave bridge in there rather than some TV actor or other person with whom ill never have any kind of true life experience.

Cheers ran 11 seasons, people still love it 12 years after the last episode aired. You can't compare the two.

In a decade, American Idol will be about as talked about as Singled Out or Baywatch is today, those two shows were phenomenons people couldn't shut up about 10 years ago

Well, I don't have one of those avatars. I'm not even planning on using one either. After reading this thread, I have one thing to say:

Mmmmm.... I am now craving a Hershey's chocolate! *drools like Homer Simpson* And I'm not even a candy eater, either! Curse you all using those avatars making me crave chocolate - CURSE you! :lol:

Because Justin waited almost a whole year before releasing his album, and by that time, the Idol hype was all about Clay and Ruben. And plus, Justin wasn't that good to begin with.

I was talking to someone about this the other day. Kelly was the only American Idol winner that really made any sense, aside from maybe Carrie, but she still has a while to prove herself. Clay (although he lost), Ruben, and Fantasia all seem to be washed up already. Whereas I think Kelly has just begin to hit her stride. She's really talented, IMO. Not that the others aren't, but she's the only one that continues to be an "idol", who has really shed the AI experience.

I don't get why all the "pop music sucks, rock music rules" people are such American Idol fans. Disco in the 1970's was probably more respected by the average rock musician (and disco was HATED by rockers) than American Idol.

It's just kinda funny to hate pop music yet champion rock and love Carrie Underwood, she is definately closer to pop than rock.

You're saying that its wrong to like one artist of a particular genre if you generally dont like that genre. I understand what you're saying. I'm not stupid. It just makes no sense to say that just because a person dislikes a majority of pop music that they aren't allowed to like one artist.

The reason I posted about that comment is because you keep reiterating to the point of death that you don't like American Idol. Okay....you don't like the show. It's okay not to like it. I'm not too keen on it myself. But because you don't like it, doesn't mean you have to be rude to people who do like it. And question their fandom and explain to you why they like it constantly. It's entertainment. Obviosuly not everyone is going to like it....thus the reason God created remote controls. If I kept telling you that The Sopranos was far superior to Sex and the City and constantly reminded you of that, I'm sure you wouldn't just sit by and let me rag on you like that.

Aaaah, poo. This is Nancy McKeon all over again...I'm not getting involved in this one. I was in enough Nancy ones..

Not really. I can easily tell them apart. And even if you can't, does it kill you to look at the username?
no it doesn't but its nice to be able to identify people by their avatars, but you can't do that when everyone has practically the same picture.

Looking at Carrie Underwoods face might tho. Or atleast make you want to. :ducky:

Well, my cousin will be winning the next AI competition, so everyone will be having her in their av's. :cheersbitches:

Meep.

People with Moderator level access can close threads they started, regardless of the board.

People with standard user access cannot close their own threads, regardless of the board.
I think thats kinda unfair, we started the thread, why can't we close it? Mods on this board seem to have more powers then needed :grr:

I'm anti Random-board.... I'd rather have this thread deleted than sent there.

My point exactly.

I want to be a moderator.:snob:

I've been here a hell of a lot longer than most people...

If you know what the heck you're doing (as a mod, that is), you would know better than to screw around with the extra features.

Personally, I think it's a pretty nifty feature for the mods to have. I don't have to report my threads to a mod of their respective board to lock it...I can simply lock it. That's all the use I get out of the extra features anyway.

I used to be a mod, for a lot of boards. Then I quit SO, and came back a few weeks later.






still eating my words.

What's your fave show? Go to that board, scroll down to the bottom of the page until you see a box that says "Moderators" (right below where the threads are). If the only moderator for that board is TJ, you can go ask either him or Seth to make you a mod of that board. Pretty easy. :)

It is pretty pointless. Raising the post count seems to be the only thing that comes out of it.

:D Thanks

lollllllllzzz22. if i were a moderator on chit chat i could see myself stickying all the fights and not closing them (unless they're really serious) for my own personal entertainment.

However, this gave me an idea. I hereby request to help moderate the It's a Great Life (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=429) board. i'm serious. i am by far the most frequent poster there, and there's no way my immaturity can get in my way of dealing with all the turmoil that goes on there. thank you for your consideration and may the force be with ewe.

It is pretty pointless. Raising the post count seems to be the only thing that comes out of it.

I checked the other day, I only have 10 posts there. And I think half of them were from a thread that was on Chit Chat that got moved.

it's for conversing, like in a chat room. it's way different from chit chat main, and it's not pointless.

I dont like chat rooms. If I wanted to just chat with someone, I'd IM them.

I deleted what I could, now I only have 7 posts in Random.

Do you think TJ let me be moderator on a board, if there was already another person besides him moderating? Because some of these moderators havent been to Sitcomsonline in months.

actually it's where I talk to my friends on SO.

actually it's where I talk to my friends on SO.
Yeah, same here. It definetly isnt pointless. And I really could care less about my post count.

actually it's where I talk to my friends on SO.
yeah. the theory about it being "just for raising post counts" actually pisses me off. i happen to have developed beneficial friendships there and it's the only place where i can comfortably socialize. it's way different than IM. if you posted in the threads frequently, you'd understand.

actually it's where I talk to my friends on SO.Exactly. It's not "just for rasing post counts". Its not pointless at all.

Do you think TJ let me be moderator on a board, if there was already another person besides him moderating? Because some of these moderators havent been to Sitcomsonline in months.Your 13, right? You have to be at least 15 to be a moderator, last I checked at least. I wanna be a mod but I'm only 13, plus all of my favorite shows boards are either dead or have like 5 mods :lol:

I think you would be alright. There are a few people here who were mods before they turned 13 (Superstar for one, he's 14 now). And I don't see why you would have a prob getting TJ or Seth to appoint you as co-mod at a board that has another mod for that reason. I co-mod the Mama's Family board with Leigh Ann and she has other boards she mods, so she doesn't do a lot at the MF board. Whereas with me, I only have 1 board so I do almost all the work.

Perhaps you could get them to let you mod on a trial basis - for maybe two weeks to prove that you can do the job.

it sounds like people just want to be a moderator for the sake of being one. how many fights actually break out on these obscure sitcom boards that would warrant another moderator in the first place?

i think it would just be funny if i were added as a moderator for the it's a great life board. not so i can feel superior to everyone else or anything.

One thing that I have noticed ever since I was modded in 2002 was that being a moderator is really no different than from being a regular member. I still feel like a regular member except I can close threads and stuff. When I asked Todd to become one it was never about "having the power." I just wanted to help.

If you want to be a moderator there are a few questions you should ask yourself first:

1. Can I be fair and unbiased, even if my best friend commits a violation of the board rules?
2. Can I handle the criticism from other members if I have to close a thread or edit someone's post?
3. Can I make good decisions on a regular basis when it comes to moderating?

yeah, those are good things to consider. honestly i don't think i'm mature enough to moderate a board like the main chit chat board. consciously or unconsciously, i'd end up being biased. ie not closing fights that amuse me, taking no action when someone i like breaks the rules. i'm sure that's why there are only adults moderating it.

it's a great life, however, would be no problem. :grrbald: i already pretty much rule that board.

Well, I kinda wanna help.
Me too. Anything for S.O.

where does SO need help at?

there isn't really a need for another mod on those boards then :lol:

some of the funniest and most entertaining stuff on SO happens in the Randoms :p

1. Normally, the people that I do talk to on here dont cause too much commotion. My biased days are over.
2. Lately, I've handled criticism well. I've given no reason for someone to criticize me on this board. And if I did close a thread, there would be a reason for it, and other's should see that.
3. Absolutely.

where does SO need help at?
Hmmm...the sketch comedy etc board only has TJ as a moderator...

who the **** said I think people should be limited to one genre of music? Have you SEEN my music collection? Kiss my ass seriously for that comment. Don't you ever ****ing tell me what I think or don't think ever again. I didn't realize listening to both Janet Jackson and Rush in 10 minutes is "liking one genre of music".

the people who champion rock that love AI say "pop music sucks and is evil" and the sort, and then profess their love for Carrie, who is every bit as "pop" as the hated Hilary and Lindsey. It's just kinda funny to blast all things pop music and then like someone who is definately more pop than rock.
I cant talk for everyone else, but I am a big pop fan, alongside with AI. NSYNC, Britney, Christina, BSB, Hilary, etc.. I love it all. I loved 99-01 with all the pop music out there. I hated it when people were all 'its not real music', etc., but I dont care. I listen to what I like. Im also a big AI fan. Clay, Kelly, Kim, Diana..

And Im not a big rock fan. Least not todays rock. I like my bubblegum.

And to Barswars or whatever it is, Clay is not washed up. I just saw him [twice] on Friday and he was on Good Morning, America as part of the summer concert series. As of now, he is on a 25 city summer 'jukebox' tour and is already planning his upcoming Christmas concert AND is still working on his CD, due early next year. :snob:

Clay Aiken has more fans than any of the other american idol people combined probably.

O_O

Singing as part of a morning show summer concert series does not make you 'washed up'. Morning shows usually have the artists that are currently on tour right now, or releasing a new cd. Hence why Kelly Clarkson, Hilary Duff, BSB, Will Smith, Destinys Child, etc have all been on morning shows as part of the summer concert series this summer alone.

And FYI: Clay had the largest audience to date this summer for the concert series. **********

True that. Even if they are scary 40+ year old women.
