What do you think would happen to OT if...

[aimeeandbeatles]

... all the administrators and moderators just disappeared?

I think that it would turn into a huge flamewar, then members would start leaving, and then it would be like a ghost town!

What do you think?

You'd die, little girl.

Someone would begin administrating it, and/or it would be shut down.

Perfection and fifty will have a heyday. There will be some reason and Chinese Posters will flood the site full of crap. Some members, for postcount will actively partake in Joke answers. Some people would feel that CFC has descended into another childish forum. A some other would declare independence again and start up their own CFC somewhere else.

The only way this would happen was if there were some sort of hacker attack/coup in which case we would have bigger problems than some spamfest or minor trolling.

 

[Mowque]

I could waste time somewhere else.

 

[Miles Teg]

Well, I'd like to say that it would be sort of a wild west anarachy, annoying posters (*cough cough*) would get their own threads calling them out, and it'd generally be a fun mess, but honestly, it'd probably just be a load of spam burying everything.

 

[TheJ0K3R]

Maybe insulting threads and posts would begin to become prevalent.I don't like using that word but maybe racist ones.

 

[Truronian]

After a few days of chaos, everyone would leave.

 

[Nylan]

Remember CivJunction?

 

[Earthling]

After a few days of chaos, everyone would leave.

This is the most accurate, and pretty much it for the thread, I can see it going downhill very fast. In fact, I'd thing the same would go for the civ forums as a whole except maybe a few modders would stay around uploading content, and avoid random trolls who just wouldn't bother with such smaller subforums.

The art of elfing would die.

 

[choxorn]

The plot of DYOS would happen in 2 minutes.

And some idiot or other would take over and rule teh internetz.

That's false. They thrive in high-moderated environments - it's just too boring if there's no moderators.

 

[LucyDuke]

It would be really fun for a few hours where everyone trashed the posters who are widely disliked, then it would turn into boring spam. I don't think we'd have any real refugee forum, which would be sad.

 

[Birdjaguar]

Anarchy is not much fun, even on the internet.

 

[Perfection]

That's the truth.

Without the mods OT would die. I salute our benevolent overlords!

Sadly most of the OT forum would descend into chaos, a sea of back biting, insults and filth.

but, on the plus side the amateur phrenologist might start up again.
