For some reason Q has stopped his marathon posting run while BB is on – so I thought I’d better write something here!

I’ve noticed over the last while that the scene is starting – again – to show us the side that we all love to hate.

Yes the bitching is back.

Now don’t get me wrong, a small part of the scene will always involve that, but when it becomes obvious that the in-fighting on some sites is now starting to tear up the fabric of the teams, that is when it needs to be sorted.

It’s known that I am an Admin at a site, but over the last few days it has become obvious to me that there is a problem with the choices made in some of the staff these sites have.

Is it me (it usually is) or are the average ages of the staff teams getting younger and younger?

The 15/16 year olds who think they are able to mod a site in the same way that other with the years of “experience” do.

The 15/16 year olds who think that they know the scene much better than the rest of us.

The 15/16 year olds who think that because they’ve won the EPL/La Liga/SPL/Whatever 5 times deserve to be a mod on a site.

The 15/16 year olds who think that because they’ve made a great post deserve to run a site in the manner that they think works without asking others for their opinions.

I could go on, but I’m not ready for a liable suit against me this week!

It would be nice if the scene instead of giving these guys a staff position straight away after a few posts or because they happen to be best mates with an admin on a site some sort of trial before they actually give them the position.

Gah!

Maybe I should have done the same thing as well over at the site I’m at!
