The supermods are NOT too busy to open one pm.
Perhaps you would like to dictate how busy they smods are allowed to get with their life this week? Maybe they should stop their uni assignments to answer your PMs.

Even if they are no busy, there is no obligation for them to reply at all if they feel that the PM (read or unread) does not warrant their time for a reply.

If you have a problem with a certain benefactor either talk to them about it or talk to the mods, don't go around "dissing" benefactors. Give them the respect that you would like them to show you.

Perhaps you should consider what life on BOS would be like without mods, some of you think it would be great but unless you have experienced it before you have no idea how caotic it can be.

Those who think they could do a better job - apply! I think the mods do a great job and yes the supermods are busy...if half the people on here sent them a PM in a week imagine how many they have to reply to as well as dealing with all the stupid posts on here!

How can I talk to the mods about them if they don't read my pm's?

There is more than one mod that you can contact.

Well maybe they dont think you have a valid point, maybe they just see sour grapes? Maybe PM another mod or PM the benefactor in question

I am sick of all these "i am gonna rebel against the BOS mods and authority" its getting old fast

Well that's wrong. Here's an experiment everyone can do:

Go to members list and order the list in terms of rep. Look at that, 4 supermods. Now hold the mouse over one of the page numbers in the page selections (don't click) and it will say something similar to "view 101-200 of 12,578"

Perhaps those are the users who have posted in the last two (or whatever) years. Or maybe those that have actually posted rather than those who have signed up and buggered (after using SAM or whatever).

The site stats section at the bottom of the page says 57000+.

Haha who cares... Active vs. registered, does it really matter?

Back on topic... Why was this particular user group created? Aren't we all meant to be helpful in our own unique way? (just ignore the question if it has already been addressed.)

It's supposedly so that they can be monitored more closely as potential moderators, be able to report stuff in their own forum, and be recognised for their efforts. I personally think the latter reason is rather pretensious, but that's what the group description would indicate is the primary reason.

they are the admins (ie the guys who own the board) not the supermods (the admins main representatives).....

and has been stated, the member list (ie those who have registered) is over 57000

Perhaps I still can't count, but can you name them for me? I can still only see two super mods.

According to Lazarus, the front page counter reports the number of records in the user table (ie, number of members in the database). VBulletin is reporting the wrong figure. He's looking into why VBulletin is giving this figure.

Yeah, I just learnt that 2 of them are admins which accounts for the black names. My bad.

Well you see I don't waste my efforts on people like you who don't appreciate them. People who undermine the benefactors and don't show them the respect that everyone on here deserves don't deserve the help of benefactors.
