ok AD was were i first learnt about how to mod psp's and stuff (i still rember my first downgrade). Now every time i go to the psp section its flooded with stupid threads and stuff that just fill people who want to learn about psp modding with absoloute rubbish, and i just think to my self that im lucky i learnt about psp's when there was some trusted information on this site. Now how ever there are numerouse threads claiming ppl have made downgraders etc which are just total lies and quite frankly a waste of space and doesnt help any one.
Well if this site could assign a few ppl to just moderate that section it will benifit alot of ppl, and also help other mods as this is one BIG site with alot of forums. <--- no disrespect to the mods at present i know they have alot of work with the other forums.. it was just a suggestion ;) )
Well ive had my say, its up to u to decide.
P.s i dont mind being a Afterdawn psp mod :)

Have you an unusual Intelligence? Do you find you lose interest in supposedly "Interesting movies"? It could be that you're one of the 5% of the population that has the mental capacity of a steaming turd! If so, you may want to join MUNSA - Mentally Unemployed and Noticeably Stupid Association.
Try the questionnaire below. The results could surprise you! If you can't even read the question, you're halfway there already - just get someone to fill out our full colour brochure at any trailing chemist, and you'll be in for some, good old fashioned non-challenging material.

Ok, time to total up all your marks. Those of you who haven't mastered addition yet, go straight on to the application; you're the sort of person we're looking for. If not, Give yourself 5 points for every D, -5 for every C, (+10 if you can't add negative numbers yet), 0 for every B and 0 for every A you ticked. How did you do?
90 to 50: OK! You're the sort of person we're looking for. Add 10 points to your score if you haven't got the hang of using anything but crayons yet.
50 to -20: Who's been doing late night studying then? Sorry, you're just a run of the mill pleb - push off.
-20 to -90: A computer geek I bet. Go join some place where they talk big numbers and floppy disks!
Is 85 between 90 and 50? Alright! Go to the bottom of the class! You're a leading light in our Association; get someone to fill the form in for you and welcome aboard!
What will MUNSA do for you?
MUNSA is a group of people just like yourself, and as such will have much the same interests. We'll meet once a month to watch American Game Shows (Except for our "advanced" class which will be watching the Australian Imitations), Television Dating Games, and listening to Pulic readings of Romance Novels. Also at the meetings, you'll have the opportunity to buy:
* Swamp land at ridiculously inflated prices
* Genuine Japanese imports with UNTAMPERED ODOMETERS (with scratces on it)
* Slice/Dice/Mince/Stack shelf-mount food mungers from C-Tel
* "Safe" relocatable houses from Chernobyl and many many more things, as yet not exploited.
As a special initial offer, you will be given a free Brain Warning device which rings an alarm if your IQ gets above 25, in time for you to go back to your local for a couple of jugs of your favourite Weasels.

hey how has that questionaire got anything to do with psp modding or moderating forums?
i just wanna make the psp section as good as it can be with all the latest and CORRECT information so new comers can read up and be more confident in psp modding. Also close or delete the threads that are stupid and pointless.
i dont understand how that questionaire will help u decide if i can qualify for a mod?

most people who would qualify as mods for that section of the forums would rather see it removed completely than continue to screw with it.
no amount of moderating will shut up the kiddies and kill the stupid; maybe a limit on posting in those forums would help. a maximum daily quota or something.
*edit*
or we could just make it a rule that you have to fill out an application to post in those forums--something to test the judgment of the poster. i know that's not feasible, but it still rolls in my head.

i have to dissagree. This is a great place for help and i belive with a little bit more help we could shut up the kiddies and kill the stupid, but what we need is some dedication. I would of hated it if when i done my first downgrade that the max post quota kicked in when i was half way through the downgrade with a question......bricked.
As for the application i think that that will just turn people away from this wonderfull forum alltogethor. All it needs is some extra time and attension and who knows maybe well see some developers releasing in the forums :)

my only issue with that is that some people *need* to be turned away. and it tends to be the dumbass that gives up first.

yh i know but u see the fact with a test or what ever will be too much hassel for some people. i wouldn want to sign up to a site were i have to do a test.
trust me it wont be good for the site. but with more help in particular areas like the psp section we could help the dumbasses to respect rules.
like ddp says...

"teach and learn" is preached all over the forums.
i'm completely in favor of an insta-ban on stupidity in the console forums. it's either newbies or people that should still be newbies that proliferate the retardation. starting from scratch again might teach them something.

yh great idea. the psp section especially is flooded with people claiming that they have produced a downgrader which are fake hoaxes!
but the time limit for newbies is a good idsea as it gives them time to think about what they say aswell. but they dont think before they type stupid nonsene!!

Yeah, Hex helped me a lot too, but he is now a mod at another psp forum.
Can't blame him, he told me he wanted to be a mod.

maybe it would be nice for a guy to look after the psp section, but no matter what you say at the end of the day it's their decision if they want a mod or not...

wanting to be a mod being your reason for joining another forum doesn't speak well for him.

I just think its sick how there is so many useless threads. For example, HELP I NEED DOWNGRADE MY 3.10 PSP HOW I DO. Or people asking for step-by-step guides and using red & bold text.. Or people asking how to upgrade to 3.03 OE-C when there is already a wininstaller. Or "WHERE I GET 1.50 RECOVERY I BRICKED MY PSP" And its funny because the probably never bricked there PSP's just they lost one of there flash0 files since they didn't have a clue what they were doing. So more like a semi-brick.
It would just be really nice if people would read the stickies instead of making so many useless posts.
