Garden needs some work...

We need more active moderating in the garden. we got unbelievably dumb noobs asking what a PK-cake is and also we need a subforum to house the unfashionable increase in cannabis discussion now that overgrow is down.
also wile your at it whip up a cacti identification subforum aswell, those are getting annoying too...
but seriously, somebody needs to take a look at the situation, there is some room for improvement there...

internet forums will always have noobs that don't read the faq. they're like flies.
OGers are displaced brothers and should be made welcome not corrdoned off like they have the measles.

I do like the cacti ID forum, I think it as a sub-forum for the garden would be better though.

hey im not upset at the noobs, (cept this one dude, i mean seriously there are limits...) but the garden has only 2 moderators and we could use one or 2 more.
but thats not my main point anyways, the increase in pot threads is pretty extreme with overgrow down and its kinda swamping the forum...
also theres alot of cacti ID threads and i just want to suggest it would look alot tighter with subforums forthese 2 catagories...

I agree with everything vertigo suggested.
Also an immediate banning of the the_dudenj or whatever his name is.
But on the more obtainable goal,more active moderators would be awesome.And also more active posters,but allas we cant control that.

what do you mean by active moderators?
moderating, for (me at least) the most part becomes invisible... moving/warning/banning/editting/catagorizing/etc do you mean posting more frequently?

Honestly I was quoting vertigo.
But to elaborate,I mean more moderators to actively moderate faster to take care of misinformation faster.There is only one mod I see and that is wiccan_seeker.When he is awake and signed on he does a wonderful job and he always explains his actions.
One or two more mods of his calibur would be perfect.

my point is simple: every god damn forum on here has no less then 5 admins, and we got only 2.
its obvious 2 is not enuff due to the ammount of idiots who get to have their post on there for several days.
we have seen periods of more then a month where neither of the mods could be reached to deal with some problem.
theres not enuff mods in the garden, period.
also, and im not the type to say i toldya so (but i did!!) the free seed thread is fucking up yet again with noobs interrupting the thread.
move it to the marketplace already...

What ever happened to Alkaloidaholic/Aneglakya (sp?). He was an awesome person and got very involved with the community, specifically the ethno forum which he moderated.. Haven't seen him around in a long time.
-------------------- m00nshine is currently vacationing in Maui. Rumor has it he got rolled by drunken natives and is currently prostituting himself in order to pay for airfare back to the mainland but he's having trouble juggling a hairon addiction. He won't be back for a long while.

I think a cannabis subforum is a great idea. The weed threads tend to swamp the rest lately.
Perhaps we need a (sticky?) poll in the garden to get more opinions.

Well given the recent closure of overgrow.com, perhaps that's not such a bad idea.

You're leaving out the best part:
He wanted to make PK cakes/but what are the ingredients/how do you do it and as cherry on the cake he wanted to use a dishwashing machine to sterilize his cakes 
Yup, we're getting new blood in the Garden, plans are being forged.
I'm all for a separate cannabis forum, but that would create another moderating issue. Still I think we should do it!

There's two of them. One is the guy in the pub and otd the other I haven't seen around lately. He use to go by " Dr J" I believe. Now as far as the pk cake stuff I'll keep on that crap now.

I say yes for more mods (congrats magash) and yet for a pot subforum. But I think a cacti id sticky would be sufficient.

I dont know what your deal is. Im tired of morning glory, hbwr, yopo, and khat threads getting in the way of the cacti id and weed threads.
Cacti and weed are far more popular than all that other garbage. The only people talking about that other crap is 15 year old kids wanting to get high on crap they can get on the internet.
I have a thread in the garden where im trying to get people to talk about why we need sub forums.
a new mod is a good idea too. Magash does a good job but he needs some help.
How about me?

I am well past 15, and I don't get high on any of the ethnobotanicals I grow. Some people on here have a general interest in the botanical aspect of an ethnobotanical forum.
And as far as popularity goes. Are you refering to the US? Or the members we have here from around the world?

If the notify moderator icon has been clicked, chances are it is in a situation that needs to be reviewed as soon as possible... which is exactly why a notify moderator form submission should be sent out to any online moderators/all moderators, or something.
