dormouse Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Things will start improving on there now, because a moderator has been employed by Jules. That moderator is.... ...me! I start 'working' for Jules this week sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuro Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 My word. All I can say is... good luck! - it's a dangerous place out there. :smirk: :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dormouse Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I'm taking no s***, Jules wanted to close it down before I offered to help him out, plus if there's any large amount of grief in my direction, I'll just get Jules to say something or shut the board down for good.

Neuro Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 He wanted to shut it down? I know he hates messageboards generally but closing it down is a big decision. Mind you, if the time is right, the time is right. :? At least this place is here to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dormouse Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Yeah, he was asking me about my opinion on certain people who'd written to him about the board etc... and he's given up going on there. He's not keen on them anyway, and when he doesn't even feel welcome on his own one that's a sign. But I'll change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakey Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Good luck to you mate, I only stick my head on now and again, it's a load of s*** at the moment. Hope that you can get it back on track again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dormouse Posted December 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Yeah unfortunately it's got that way at times, but we'll soon change that. That board belongs to Jules after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakey Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Do you really think that you'll be able to get it back to how it was? I don't know how long you've been on there Dormouse, but I've been a member there for about 6 years now and I'm not too optimistic. Regular users don't go on there any more because of the knobheads that use it. And it was the regular users that had worthwhile opinions on music and good debates. I used to spend hours and hours on there every week, it was brilliant. Now I spend 20 mins or so every week looking over it. It's a real shame, I know I don't sound very optimistic, but I think it could be hard to get it back to how it was. Best of luck, I really hope that it does change as I loved using that message board and would like to continue doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dormouse Posted December 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I've only been a member for a year or so, but what annoys me is that genuine fans of Jules are afraid to use it, and that's not fair. I hope I can make a difference, and get people using that board again. Once I have started, that is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si_E_P Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 ive stopped using the jj.net board, too many twats who dont know what they are talking about. ive even forgot my password now so i cant use anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonB Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I browse it every now and again, never post really, never have done much since I been on there hence lowish post count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakey Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I wouldn't say I'm afraid to use it, but there's no decent posts. The new people, fans of jules or not get scared off by the twáts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissie Brown Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I use to browse through almost everyday as there were some interesting discussions going on. However l have never posted on there. It's definately gone downhill over the past 18mths so wish Dormouse the best of luck. It's a big responsibilty and will take up alot of time.

bigsteve Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I agree with all whats said above. I too used to go on there a lot, but got bored of the uninformative nature of the posts and banter that was way out of control. There's people on there that do know what they're talking about, but are either too arrogant to share their knowledge, or are scared of posting for fear of rebellion from the 'hardcore.' It was the 1st ever message board I read and posted on, but I joined as it started to go downhill. Any new readers over the last couple of years, must have come away with a bad opinion and wondered why it was even a Jules board :? I wish you every success Adam with modding it - keep us informed on here how it goes - I'll pop in more reguarly now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakey Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Can I make requests for you to ban people?! Here goes your best mate again Adam! http://www.judgejules.net/board/ubbthreads...vc=1&PHPSESSID= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
