Deleting isn't that time-consuming – but you still need to find it, which is why I think the topic was created – "forum spam links"
And now about those same coordinators.
VDV_forever Tournament host and forum section for Heroes 1
Xaker - fights against hooligans
Adelaida - Tournament host for Heroes 3 (online) Heroes 5 (online). Clan leader of Homo Homini
Now, what do you think... do they have an extra 5-10 minutes + searching for forum spam topics, considering that they also don't mind participating in some tournaments?
)))I am sure they do. But if you want, ask them yourself (maybe they will disprove me). I don’t think being a moderator and unloading wagons are the same thing.

Thank you for your opinion.
By the way, there is a topic "Dialogues with moderators", you can talk there too.
As I understand it, by the term "semi-divine" you meant me and several of my comrades. However, you elevated us to this rank. Yes, we possess a sense of self-worth. Yes, we have achievements behind us, and a significant part of the forum users who PLAY HEROES respect us. But when people turn to us politely for help, we provide it and communicate very kindly and openly, without putting up a wall!!
In my section, there are 3 moderators (including myself), everyone appears several times a week, the section is active.
As for the social and entertainment section, more moderators are definitely needed here. There are always two approaches: limiting user rights to create topics
or
clearly structuring sections and having a large number of moderators.
))))All that remains is to erect a monument to yourself while still alive. And what is this division into "you" and "we"? Who was it that raised you (moderators) to heaven??? Maybe it just seems that way to you??
P.S. As I said, many of them (the moderators))))) cannot formulate their thoughts clearly and diplomatically.
P.S. Personally, I like ewgeniy (a person with a sense of humor and expresses himself clearly), but I didn't manage to vote. Well, and Alana should be brought back. I’ve already talked about him before.

I don't want to argue or refute your opinions – I just want to remind you that those forum members who care about the fate of HW and are willing to help the forum became moderators.
And it's all based on personal enthusiasm, as they don't receive ANYTHING for this activity, not even respect anymore (judging by the latest posts).
I'm not arguing that there are moderators who excellently fulfill all their duties, and there are those who do a poor job, but most moderators cope with their duties, albeit with some delays or shortcomings.
I recently had the opportunity to become a moderator, but I declined, as the level of moderation has always been satisfactory for me, both before and now. (other reasons are also mentioned in this thread)
P.S. Let's not forget that, apart from the user with the nickname "Creator," everyone else here has equal rights and equal responsibilities, and if someone takes on additional responsibilities, then we should first respect that person, and if someone doesn't like it, then before criticizing, do it yourself the way you think is right, or offer an alternative... IMHO, simply criticizing means "talking nonsense," going off-topic, and spamming.
Moderators like Alan and Kyle deserve respect, but where are they now?!?

Luchik, calm down!
It's probably enough for Alan to just post flood links in the flood thread (which I work with DAILY) or at least provide a link to an already existing similar topic, and write a couple of lines in a PM to the moderator of this section, rather than writing in the flood thread something like "use your head, do the work, search for such topics yourselves, stupid forum members, moderators are goats for not cleaning the topic for the SECOND day." Regarding coordination, let me note that I am exactly doing coordination; we have moderators to clean the forum (most of whom are very responsible and conscientious people); deleting flood is simply NOT part of a coordinator's duties (but one way or another, I still do it).
Luchik, it's very strange to hear from you, as an experienced organizer, about equating the organization of two official events per year with organizing a series of online tournaments for HoMM3, organizing the FIRST joint tournament, when friendly resources don't come to you on someone's suggestion (think about whose), but when you have to establish contacts and negotiate terms yourself. Also, through my coordination work, I achieved significant corrections to the Clans Regulations on HeroesWorld, which the coordinator whose place I took somehow didn't do before, even though this topic had been pending for almost a year (who knows, maybe it wasn't as important to him as, say, deleting a flood topic that a section moderator could also delete). Well, that's enough in general, because I'm not used to beating my chest about my achievements. Those who need to know already know; those who don't, well, it doesn't matter.
P.S.: Point a finger at me, anyone who has contacted me via PM or ICQ and I ignored their request. That's probably how one should work, not by winning flood prizes, or by engaging in petty snitching and reporting.
Another P.S.: Sorry for the bluntness, but if anyone has a right to be fed up, it's definitely me.

It’s very strange to hear from you, an experienced organizer, that organizing two offline tournaments a year is comparable to organizing a series of online 3v3 tournaments, organizing the FIRST joint tournament...
Hmm, even though I’m not Luchik, I couldn’t resist...
As I understand it, you think that organizing an offline tournament is a trivial matter? Well, to some extent, yes, but only at the very beginning it’s easy (to create a post with the rules and upload the save file), the main difficulties begin after it ends, when you need to check all the submitted final save files... that’s where the problems start.
Besides, Alan held not just a couple of tournaments in a year, but as many as 8 tournaments (if I counted correctly).
Therefore, don’t say that it’s easy to run an offline tournament... :mad:
Furthermore, besides the tournaments, he did a lot of work on combating spam and helping newcomers. For some reason, besides him, very few people help newcomers get acquainted with the game... maybe pride prevents them.

You can, of course, delete this post, as it is off-topic... but, dear Adelaide, IMHO, power has spoiled you... :(

Sincerely.

P.S. I also allow you to give me a remark for “Discussing the actions of the administration)))”

First, I suggest everyone follow the link below http://forum.heroesworld.ru/showgroups.php?only_moderators; without it, further reading of this post will lose its meaning.

This is, as you have already seen, the "Open statistics of moderators' work (Automatically updated every hour)," which is in plain sight for everyone, but apparently few notice it. It's better to keep it open in a neighboring window; it will come in handy.

Now we can begin responding to the post by Alex_R and Adelaide.
I don't deny that there are moderators who perform all their duties excellently, and some who perform them poorly, but most moderators handle their duties, albeit with delays or shortcomings.
we have moderators for cleaning the forum (most of whom are very responsible and conscientious people)

vbn, congratulations to you; not only are they speaking about you in the plural, but you've also cleared the ENTIRE forum of everything.
But seriously, we see that one person is working (who, by the way, was appointed as a mod not so long ago, but has already achieved more than many). And such a state of affairs allows us to question the competence and knowledge of forum matters of the two people who posted. Perhaps they could go through, for example, the section for 5 and see if there are no duplicate threads? flood in threads? off-topic? Or is it possible that some actually exist? And what about the "excellent work of mods who delete everything"? Or is that "delay" measured in months, and "shortcomings" refer to duplicate threads?
Or is this the usual glorification of HW, while everyone remains silent about how things actually are, and anyone who tries to speak out is immediately cast into same disfavor—and you're lucky if it's not a ban. By the way, the beginning of this thread shows how effective this policy is, since people were discussing the appointment of a third coordinator and didn't even suspect the dismal state of affairs in the moderator workshop.

Well then, let's try to continue responding.
I had the opportunity recently to become a moderator - but I refused, because the level of moderation has always suited me, both before and now.

Excuse me, even when from September 2006! until recently we didn't have a SINGLE mod in 3???? This is called "suited me"; well then, all questions to you are settled...
To Alex_R P.S.
even respect is no longer visible (judging by the latest posts).
A very correct observation; perhaps because of the kind of people appointed recently, such posts have followed? Even more so, for some reason it's not "people" but one specific coordinator, Adelaide—I have no complaints about others.

And right here is another very correct phrase, the meaning of which everyone seems to have forgotten...
Respect to moderators
like Alan and Kyle - but where are they now!?!?
Exactly MODERATORS. I was a MODERATOR, and to any attempts to accuse me of spending time deleting flood etc., I can tell them to read the Moderator Rules; you'll probably learn a lot of new things about their duties. And the "super" prefix gave me rights over the entire forum.
Now let's move to another post, but we'll continue talking about moderators.
I will note that I am specifically engaged in coordination
mmm coordination of what?? let's read the moderator rules, since the link is slightly above. And pay special attention to point 12. Then look at the mod statistics (I hope it's still open) and we see that there are about five people who should have already been stripped of their rights. Why then does the coordinator ignore this? And in general, again, the statistics show a brilliant "coordination" of other mods, which, given the obvious mess in some sections, is surprising. Why haven't they been warned? And if they have, then those warnings were clearly ignored, and then more severe sanctions should be taken. You love doing this to users who are displeasing to you (by the way, "you" is an address to a little-known person, no need to ask back "we as in me and who?"), but you're not in any hurry to do it regarding violators whom you sympathize with.

What's next? ah yes...
and not writing text like "think with your head, work with your hands, look for such threads via search, stupid forum users, the moderators are goats and haven't cleaned the thread for TWO days" in a flood thread

hmm then why were neither the flood thread nor this message deleted, just like the 3rd off-topic one from another user? But they deleted my response to that person, which contained an unpleasant truth about the forum administration. However, when it came time to answer for their words and actions, the thread was quickly physically removed so that no one could find traces (and stupidly I screenshotted the messages anyway. Only the creator doesn't care about the truth; he covers his "god-like" ones). By the way, physical deletion makes it difficult to prove exactly how I phrased my response, since your quote in quotation marks is clearly far from the truth.
deleting flood simply DOES NOT FALL under the coordinator's duties
Could you provide a link to the coordinator rules and their duties? That would immediately settle a mass of questions. Because all I found was about mods and newsmakers. Or do they consist of two classic points, where "2. If not right, see point 1"?
Luchik, it is very strange to hear from you as an experienced organizer a claim of equal comparison between organizing two off-line events a year and organizing a series of online tournaments for 3, organizing the FIRST joint tournament, when friendly resources don't just report to you on someone's prompting (think about whose) but when you have to establish contacts yourself and agree on terms; also through my coordinator activity I achieved significant correction of the Regulations on Clans in ХВ, which for some reason the coordinator whose place I took had not done before, although this topic was in limbo for almost a year (who knows, maybe it wasn't as important for him as, for example, deleting a flood thread that a specific section moderator could also delete), well anyway enough, because I am not used to beating my chest about my merits; those who need to know already know, and if they don't, well, it doesn't matter.

Well, Kyle has already replied here that cheap showing off in the form of a carelessly uttered phrase "about a couple of tournaments," said for the newcomers of this forum, is a fall from grace in the eyes of those who know how it actually was. Mmm regulations on clans... hmmm and it seemed to me that most of the work, as well as the mass creation of threads on this issue, was done by Raper. And again, you came to my place as coordinator? The one I held for ten days? Honestly, playing to the crowd, and with such pathetic music, does not flatter you.
point your finger at me
We are pointing, per your request... posts in this same thread numbers 98 and 101 where it is clearly written that you were approached, but you did not deign to help. And yet this is the 3 online tournaments section, whose merits and protection you "point" to everywhere.

And practically at the very end.
that's probably how one should work, rather than winning flood-awards, or engaging in stupid tattling and reporting.
.

Is it really true that one should work as described above?
Winning flood-awards. This is apparently a reproach to me, not Alucard... Well of course, I created such a thread myself, campaigned for voting in it myself, and probably bribed the most persistent ones, while physically deleting posts of those who refused to cooperate. Perhaps this will surprise you, but that was the position of ordinary forum users, whom no one forced anywhere.
And about stupidity... Indeed, this is a very convenient position. When a coordinator performs unlawful actions, in theory there is only one option (since discussing things openly on our forum is forbidden after separate incidents with Hacker etc.), which is to contact the Creator with a request to resolve the situation, while being ready to provide all necessary evidence of the coordinator's guilt. But then it turns out that this is "tattling and reporting"... A devilishly convenient position: you don't have to answer for anything, do whatever you want, no one will call you to account anyway.
Therefore, I apologize to all users whom I ever advised to take disputes to the administration—IT'S ALL NONSENSE! No one will do anything for you; you are already guilty in the situation simply because your nickname color is plain, not blue/green.

P.S. I hope that I didn't waste so many letters in vain and someone extracts something useful from all the above.

P.S.S. I didn't touch upon the topic of the remark in my profile, although I could have answered a lot there too. But with that situation, I thought it necessary to deal with it according to all the rules of this forum; in the end *poof* and then banal ignoring.

That's why I respect Alan. He knows how to express his point of view in a reasoned and polite manner (unlike many others). Many moderators and coordinators should learn from him. It's just strange to hear about such behavior from the Creator. I'll try writing to him as well.
In general, I suggest replacing some of the coordinators and moderators.

Regarding the recent dispute about coordinators and moderators.

Dear forum members, there's a lot of work to be done on the forum, and it's not always possible to get everything done on time. But we're not a defense industry enterprise, so it's not a big deal if a flood thread stays up for 3 days.

After all, everyone has their own interests. Some people come to improve their skills in Heroes 3, others in Heroes 5, some come to find worthy opponents and good mentors, and some mostly hang out in the flood/entertainment threads, and so on.
And if you don't see activity in the sections you don't visit, it doesn't mean there's no activity at all.
And even more so, work like organizing tournaments takes place outside the forum; only the results, etc., are posted here.
Therefore, it's easy to form a distorted opinion about the work of moderators and coordinators, who (and here's the important part) work on a voluntary basis.

Unfortunately, among all the arguments, I only noticed and understood a couple of useful suggestions:

1. Let's have more moderators who are actively involved in their respective sections (which has recently been actively promoted by the community; I hope the Creator will respond and be accommodating).
2. Let's get rid of moderators who rarely appear on the forum, let alone in their sections (it would be good to conduct an inventory of moderators every six months).

Because, unfortunately, even moderators and coordinators are just people...
I may be wrong, but as far as I remember, Alan also left his positions due to lack of time.
I agree with Alan's indignation and his defense of his interests; everything is clear. For me, this dispute is pointless (I know about the work of both firsthand).
And saying "I did this, but you didn't" is not the right approach; there's more than enough work, and each coordinator has their own priorities.

As a moderator, I personally like Kyle the most.
And I respect those moderators who don't delete entire posts but only edit the flood content within the post.

In general, we continue to work in the usual mode. If you have any useful suggestions, please send them in a private message to the coordinators.

P.S. By the way, in the "Suggestions and Improvements" thread... I don't remember any of the suggestions being implemented in the last six months

Apparently, the title of the topic implies that I should respond.
I am answering primarily to Alan:
1. I don't think the evaluation of the moderators' work using your link is objective enough (vbn is undoubtedly doing a great job and works excellently in their section), but sometimes there are few spammers in the sections who give work to the section moderators (and it's good that there are few), and the fact that the number of moderations performed by moderators is not large does not mean they are a bad moderator. The sections for HoMM1, HoMM2, and HoMM4 are in almost perfect order; I think that is the moderators' merit. As for HoMM5, I think everyone knows there is only 1 active moderator (I won't name names, but I hope you can guess who I mean), and they are working at full capacity. They should not be accused of negligence towards their duties; they are already doing everything they can, and other users are very helpful by providing links in the "Spam links" topic. I primarily work from that, because I physically cannot delve into every discussed topic. I don't understand why complaints about the poor performance of moderators are addressed to me. I don't appoint or dismiss them (although you probably already know that). The only thing I did was give my support for Lord Vampire to become moderator of the HoMM5 official section (because it was really necessary after your departure and the consequent absence of a tournament organizer in that area) and for vbn (because it was really necessary). Other appointments and dismissals of candidates lie entirely within the Creator's jurisdiction; they decide who to appoint and when.
2. Regarding the duties of a coordinator on HeroesWorld, it is indeed not written anywhere. The Creator described these duties to me in a private message when I was appointed. For ethical reasons, I dare not post that message; if they allow it, you can see it. (Alan, you yourself, when you were a coordinator, wrote that your cleanup activities on the forum interfered with directly coordinating. I can't quote verbatim, but if you don't remember, I can provide a link if necessary). I admit that I only deal with spam cleanup when it comes from spam links or private messages/ICQ, because I delegate this activity to the section moderators. My priorities are somewhat different (I hope I don't need to provide a report on the work done, as that would seem like bragging).
3. Regarding the praise of HeroesWorld — yes, I always do that because I love it. I wish it only prosperity, am zealous about our champions, and am not used to giving up. Unlike some, even if I am stripped of my coordinator or moderator status, or even banned, I will re-register and still do my part (come up with and run tournaments, manage a clan) for the benefit of HeroesWorld.
4. Regarding the brief grammar lesson, thank you, but I do understand the difference between "You" written with a capital and lowercase letter.
5. Regarding pointing fingers — unfortunately, I did not see any direct or veiled references to myself in the questions. By the time I saw those posts, other forum members had already answered them, in particular the first one by esteemed Qwerty. I think you were "grasping at straws" with these examples.
6. And then, about how you shouldn't contact the administration if your nickname isn't green — that's complete nonsense, and I hope the forum members understand that perfectly. By the way, in your attempt to sling mud at me, you are indirectly slinging mud at other coordinators, so generalizations are unnecessary here.

I have no desire to continue this polemic (and I hope neither do you), so I see two ways out of this situation:
1. Move on, simply ignore each other, and not provoke public clarifications of the relationship.
2. You can continue writing to the Creator about my incompetence and fight for my removal.
Honestly, I don't care. I am morally quite thick-skinned and react to all attacks philosophically.

First, I suggest everyone follow the link below http://forum.heroesworld.ru/showgroups.php?only_moderators; without it, reading the rest of the post will lose its meaning.

This is the "Open statistics of moderator activity (automatically updated every hour)," which is in plain sight, but apparently, few people notice it. It's best to keep it open in a separate window; it will be useful.
Hmm... I'll make a note here - not all moderators are "green" - that's one. And not all of them are included in this statistic... (yes, I'm also hinting at myself).;) But VBN is really doing a good job! There are no questions about that....

Further... hmm... I think the argument is strange. I'm just confused about who is accusing whom of what??:smile24: The moderators are working; it's easy to track. Right now, only the "Chatter" section is flooded :D And slightly the section on WOG - but there, it seems, the problem is the lack of moderators....

Coordinators - hmm... I don't think it should be their OBLIGATION to clean up the chatter. But they can do it themselves, if they want, and according to their conscience. IMHO. Besides, they already have plenty of work to do. IMHO, coordinators should unite the ENTIRE FORUM and work on INTER-RESOURCE ISSUES.... That's it.

I completely agree with Alan... I agree with him on all points! Now, regarding the work of the moderators... Is everything really great in section 5? No, there's only one active moderator there, and that's Inky... and that's it. So, let's not say that everything is great with the sections! Not long ago, a topic was created: complete spam: Dragon or Fiction! The main post of the topic was as follows:
Are dragons needed in the Elven army, in your opinion? Or can this creature even be called a dragon?
Yes, it's a wonderful topic... Another one to just spam in... But, however, the topic was not deleted after being posted. Alan replied to it, and what do we see: his post was deleted, considered off-topic (and selectively, other posts that were replies to Alan's post were not deleted), and the topic itself was left. The spam topic somehow continued to exist... It was only deleted after a dispute began in it, but no longer about dragons! Strange policy! I don't know what the coordinator's responsibilities include... Apparently, it's a closely guarded secret. But as long as we don't have normal moderators for the sections (not all of them, of course, but for the most important ones: 3 and 5), and in the Spam section, there is absolutely no moderator, I think that the coordinator, the only person who has the right to moderate, besides the moderators, should take on the responsibility of cleaning the forum from spam! At least until the situation with the moderators stabilizes! Or is that something beyond the coordinator's capabilities? Once there are moderators, that's fine! Let it be their responsibility, but right now, there aren't enough of them! And if you really love Heroes, why do you allow so much spam?! These worthless, stupid topics in the Spam section??? After all, no one but you can clean these sections... and it's already sickening to go in there... Spam is good, fun, cool, it's needed for relaxation, but everything should be in moderation! The main thing should still be - Heroes and Tournaments! So, maybe we should start cleaning up the spam?! In the topics and in the SPAM section! Let's make Heroes cleaner! Now, I am personally interested in another question!
organizing the FIRST joint tournament, when friendly resources don't just contact you on someone's initiative (think about who)
Adelaide, I'm sorry, what are you hinting at? And then
organizing the FIRST joint tournament
Adelaide, don't you think that this is not only your merit?! Or did you organize this tournament ALONE? It would be good to mention the person with whose help, or rather, thanks to whom, this tournament was organized! After all, this was YOUR joint effort with him! And finally... regarding offline tournaments... They are just as difficult to organize, conduct, and then check numerous saves as online tournaments. So, don't say that Alan only held 2 offline tournaments... Especially since he held far more than 2, and also for different versions and WC, which the entire forum is proud of. Although Kyle has already written about this, I just agree with his words. But it's not good to say that it was easy, but something else is much more difficult...

Here’s the English translation of the provided HTML text, adhering to all specified rules and preserving the original markup, numeric values, and untranslatable terms. I’ll throw in my two cents in the "discussion"...

Point one
The only thing I did was put in a good word for Lord Vampire to moderate the official 5 section (because it was really necessary after you left, and consequently the lack of a tournament organizer in that direction) and vbn u (because it was really necessary)
Well, so the rest isn’t necessary? Appointed two and that’s enough?
If you really don’t want to moderate, then please, look into the presented candidates, put in a good word for them too — that way you’ll save your own time and kill two birds with one stone, or is that also not in your competence, or maybe you don’t have time for that either...
The sections for Heroes 1, 2, and 4 are in almost perfect order, I think that’s the moderators’ merit.

Or maybe it’s not the moderators’ merit, but rather a result of low traffic? No, dear moderators, don’t get me wrong, your contribution there is also significant, but there’s no need to overestimate it.
I’ll write about Heroes 4: there’s currently 1 moderator, Pandora (whether that’s normal or not isn’t my business), and considering that at best 3-4 posts a day are written in the section, it’s all quiet and calm, but... the reason is low traffic. Tanyusha, don’t think I have a bad attitude toward you as a moderator or don’t appreciate your work — quite the opposite, you know yourself, sometimes I throw you a link to a clone thread or a spam thread for help and for greater efficiency :)
Regarding praising HeroesWorld, yes, I always do that, because I love it, I only wish it prosperity, I am zealous about our champions, and I’m not used to giving up. Unlike some, even if I’m stripped of my coordinator or moderator status, or even banned, I’ll re-register and still do my thing (come up with and run tournaments, manage the clan) for the good of HeroesWorld

Nice phrase, it almost stings the eyes. Maybe for the portal’s prosperity, it’s worth listening to its users’ opinions?
Well, and that you shouldn’t contact the administration if you don’t have a green nickname — that’s just complete nonsense, and I hope the forum members understand that perfectly. By the way, in your attempt to smear me with mud, you indirectly smear other coordinators, so generalization is inappropriate here.

Actually, it’s not nonsense, at least not 100% for sure.
Need an example? Here you go.
Let’s look for an old thread about choosing moderators.
What were its results? Not impressive, were they?
The administration looked it over, looked it over, said the candidates were reviewed, and then silence... unclear whether they were approved or not, or approved but with some delays... we can only guess...

That’s all from 2 Adelaide.

Now from 2 Luchik
if there’s no moderator at all, then I think it’s the coordinator, the only person who has moderation rights besides moderators, who should take on such a duty as cleaning the forum of spam!

I strongly disagree — I explained why above.
And as for the spam section, I don’t understand why touch it at all? Who does it bother — it’s "SPAM"! That’s called having nothing to do... not good...

Now regarding tournament organization.
Yes, it’s difficult, and kudos to those who handle it, but...
I’ll take only Heroes 4,
Tournament organization there is lacking — example: the Summer Online Tournament, and various squabbles in offline games, issues with rules.
And honestly, it’s very disappointing that the World Championship has no game schedule at all — you can see the result yourself. With a schedule, slackers could be weeded out much earlier.
Luchik, well, that’s just a handful of criticism for you, so you don’t get too conceited :) :D

I'm annoyed by the fact that the same methods are used here as politicians use in real life... wordplay, contradictory facts... power is bad. I especially don't understand the opinions: a) "coordinators are the only ones who have access to all topics - therefore, they should clean them up": confused: b) if someone is to blame, is it Adelaide??? It seems that your dispute with her (Adelaide) is the only reason why Luchik and you have developed this issue... but who is interested in this??? ... and to lump together that Adelaide is incompetent or not doing her job is simply not nice, IMHO. Now, to the point: 1. The problem of spam has always existed... recently it has worsened (it's not just that Draco created a topic about selecting moderators). Adelaide took office as a coordinator when this problem was already in full swing, and how could she have influenced it, if 2 or 3 coordinators couldn't handle this problem before? 2. The situation with Tournaments on the forum has noticeably improved now, primarily due to the diversity and coverage of new "threads" - but according to your logic, is this all Adelaide's merit? ... and by the way, this is partly true... she has increased activity in areas such as Heroes 3 online and Heroes 5 online... but what about the other parts? There are also many improvements there, but these are still the merits of other forum members... P.S. I will still stick to my opinion that Tournaments are more important than writing, and that this problem with spam, etc. is a temporary phenomenon that does not greatly prevent forum members like me from enjoying the forum. And accordingly, I didn't understand the "criticism" regarding my assessment of moderation... so what if the statistics show that only one vbn is doing his job perfectly? - but in reality, statistics are not the only thing that matters... or VDV_forever (to whom there are no complaints) - works much harder than Adelaide, or maybe Hacker? And why are there no complaints about VDV? ... because you, like me, see his efforts and, most importantly, the results (Tournaments, the reference guide, etc.), but Adelaide's efforts and results are not visible? or you don't want to see them?
