All The moderators should be Japanese

[ASIAN Hero]

All the moderators of this forum should be Japanese peoples to make the forum moderated with pure justice and not because of personal matters. I mean if there is 1 topic discussing how Japanese hates certain peoples and the moderator are one of that peoples, that moderator will most likely delete that topic without even see the topic deserve to be deleted or not.

For the same reason, I believe moderators should not be limited to Japanese - various moderators from different country/backgrounds would be far better to keep the forum fair. And I think current moderators are doing their job well.

I don't think such a thing is happening here.
When certain threads/posts are deleted, it is usually because they are just spam.

 

[epigene]

I second undrentide's opinion and believe that the moderators here are doing a good job in general--though I do feel a mod or two are missing in the Nihongo Forum...

 

[ASIAN Hero]

This is a forum discussing about all Japanese stuff so the one who should moderate it are Japanese because only them who have the most possibility of understanding what happening in their own homeland.

Except it this forum have subforum that not related to Japan then that subforum can have a non Japanese moderator.

 

[Mikawa Ossan]

Asian Hero, I appreciate your concern for the forum. It is a question which has been brought up before, and the simple answer to you is that it will not happen anytime soon for a number of reasons.

1) This is primarily a forum about Japan from the perspective of non-Japanese. Indeed, this brings us to point number 2.

2) There are only a limited number of Japanese members.

3) None of them (to my knowlege) has shown any interest in becoming a moderator here. I do know of several instances in which offers were given but refused.

To make every moderator here Japanese would be difficult indeed, given the above. Please understand, though, that the moderating staff does try very hard to be fair and unbiased to the extent that is possible.

So this forum made by non Japanese?

Before I come in here I have been on a forum that also similiar to this that discussing anything about Japan and Japanese, the forum Admin are not a Japanese also most of the forum moderators. You know what happened? I got banned from that site just because I'm asking for support for Japan independence from the american occupation. Who knows if I will be banned from this forum soon.

 

[JimmySeal]

Maybe that site wasn't an appropriate place to discuss that topic.

A moderator's job is to fairly decide when things are getting out of hand and intervene. They need not be any certain nationality and don't even need to know much about the subject matter, though it might help.

 

[Mars Man]

ASIAN Hero san, I would suggest, that if you, yourself, are an honest and as just as humanly possible person, then after a little bit of careful thought, you too would understand that you have not yet been a member with us here to have any great insight into how JREF (not any other forum--and there may be extremely little comparison) is moderated.

Please hang out for a good while longer, and see how things go. Of course, if you ask that those of us on the team be reasonable, honest, fair and just, then you also must be so.

Please don't rush. Take your time and get a feel for us here at JREF first!!

Will you do that for us?

That site made by an Admin who is an american who seems to fall in love to Japan soo deeply, the topic I made probably making him/her unpleasant since the last time before I'm banned from that forum I got over 30 members who support Japanese independence while only around 8 who not support it. I just got banned without even receive a warning that I should not make a topic like that on the forum. So the issue not because that topic not appropriate to be placed on that forum.

I also have been banned many times from other non Japanese forum that discuss abou Anime, I'm sure the reason are the same.

Maybe your banning from other forums means something?

Usually when a person joins a forum to use it as a soapbox for their personal agenda, they soon are labeled a troll. Any forum usually has a topic that everyone likes to stick to and the members are interested in. When a new member joins a forum who has nothing to add to the main topic of that forum, he is usually ignored or in the end , banned. Most members here on JREF like Japan and things to do with Japan and are not Japanese. Your agenda is very political and a bit controversial to say the least. It tends to make you a square peg in a round hole. At some point you will probably lose your temper and go overboard in your posts and get banned. If you would take time to read posts and get to know people here, you will do far better at fitting in.

The Occupation Era ended in something like 1951 or 1952.

Japan has its own Constitution, and is an entirely sovereign nation with a democratically elected government. If the Japanese people, through their freely elected representatives, don't see fit to terminate basing of American military forces inside Japan, what business is it of yours?

Xenophobia by proxy is a new one on me.

 

[ASIAN Hero]

I will never let my emotion get over me, you won't see me got mad in here instead seeing many members in here who will gone mad at me because of the topic I made. Truth often bitter when you are not able to face it.

 

[undrentide]

Truth? You must be joking!
I agree with Mike. US occupation finished more than half a century ago, and it did not last so many years - considering Japan's long history, it was really a very short period. Except this short occupation, Japan has been independent country for centuries.
I have no intention to start argument here (not worthwhile, and I come to this forum to enjoy communicating with others and have some fun), but being Japanese, I feel rather insulted to hear that someone says it is still occupied, as if Japan were not independant country.

This is very creative SPAM!

I can see many Nihonjin turn as a loser when hearing their country facing a treat from other countries, it seems the american law of not allowing Japan to teach patriotism to their youth are worked and taken its toll even today even in this forum.

Shame on those losers

No wonder you were banned at so many forums.

 

[Mike Cash]

I think Las Vegas is placing the post count over/under at about 35 for his being banned here as well.

 

[Mars Man]

People, people, dear fellow JREF members. . . let's please not get sucked into any blackholes just yet. Let's take this thread as being one member's opinion--that the moderators should be Japanese nationals--and let's please just let it rest with that. Other truths, however self-evident they be for those who so carefully search them out, need not weigh in on this particular topic--our opinions regarding the OP should.

My opinion is that the OP lacks forethought, and is thus in error. Let's let the probability fields form on their very own.

With that, ASIAN Hero, I fairly and with an open mind, challenge you to present your arguments on how any human being can practice justice without personal concern. (otherwise, please define 'personal matters.)

I would like to see no one banned...which means I would like to see all who join operate in a reasonable, honest, fair and just manner--and with politeness.

Openly insulting another member, when your post count is 24. That's the kind of behavior that justifies banning you.

I also have been banned many times from other non Japanese forum that discuss abou Anime

If you were trying to start controversial political threads on anime sites, you're supposed to be banned. That's blatantly off-topic, and therefore, spam.


Why don't you show us some of these sites and tell us what topics you were posting in which sections. If they're still up, point us to some of the discussions you took part in. Maybe some of us can solve the mystery of your abrupt ejection from those boards.

 

[EmperorHirohito]

To me the islands of Japan are occupied by a race of people. They are called the Japanese believe it or not folks. As for the American bases on the islands, they are there for strategic reasons that most mature people around the world would understand. There are also American bases within the county of England that I live in. They are not occupying British soil but are there due to treaties drawn up between various governments.

As to the subject of moderators being entirely Japanese, this site maybe about Japan, but the internet is a global thing, it exists in other countries apart from Japan. And the moderators on this site are just like most other internet forums, they are made up of different nationalities. To me that is the way it should be. End of Subject, enough said.

There is a section on those Anime forums made to discuss anything not related to Anime so the topic I made there not off topic. I will post 1 of those forum link including the topic link in here only if it is not claasified as spam. I mean if it is ok with the Admin or Mod of this forum.

The internet are a global thing but when you ask a mechanic to work as doctor you will see what kind of that mechanic did. Anyway, I have to put EH as your name since your name are offending the Japanese in here especially who royal to the Japanese empire. Maybe it is not offending to you but what did you know about the Japanese culture. You shoul respect anyone else culture if you wish to be respected.

 

[EmperorHirohito]

Mike Cash I have just rung my bookie friend on the Sunset strip in Las Vegas and he has just offered me odds of 10-1 against the post count reaching 50 posts. In the best possible taste I have just placed £10 pounds Sterling as a bet, just waiting for my winnings to arrive

 

[Clawn]

I believe the moderators here are doing a fine job, and although none of them are Japanese, many of them have lived/worked there for quite a while.

But perhaps if that mechanic went to college to become a doctor and recieved his degree from medical school, he would be more qualified to be a doctor.

There is no but on this case wehn there are real the doctor. Just ask the true Japanese in this forum to be one of the Mod, if there are only around 5 true Japanese in this forum then so be it, just place them to modding all the subforum discussing Japan.
I think there are a few subforum in here that does not need a true Japanese to mod it so the old moderator can be assigned there.

Isn't it strange a forum discussing about Japan were operated by non Japanese?

 

[Mars Man]

I believe your opinion has been stated well enough, but the rationale behind it--the facts and projections, if you will, are missing.

At any rate, it should be obvious that practically all here on JREF will disagree with you, and therefor the subject is moot.

Isn't it strange a forum discussing about Japan were operated by non Japanese?

If one were to really think about it, no it isn't strange at all.
