Questions and innuendos about Moderators

[polysmut]

When you get to my mum's stage you can worry.

She forgot her own age once.

She won't forget me.

Turns out we're drinking again now & I'm hearing more stories. Apparently if it wasn't me I would have been turned away instantly but the landlord loves me so much that I was allowed to make him & his girlfriend laugh at me till I decided to go of my own accord. Not bad for a town I spend just 2 weeks a year in.

Edit: Some Chuck Berry on the jukebox with some naked dancing & apparently Thursday lock-ins are the best hangover cure after Wednesday sessions.

seems like the kind of guy who wears socks and sandals at the same time.

You mean how they designed to be worn? Shocking!

 

[kikie]

Nope.

A member who plays an active role on the site, having a generally positive impact and a demonstrable understanding of the site's ethos and direction (like... no warnings, or at least none recently) is a good reason/motivation for a moderatorship.

Or a huge bribe.

1 point for kikie.

Active role? Sometimes

Positive impact? Me? Uuuhhh.

Demonstrable understanding .... Yes, did this numerous times. Last time, just one example, I warned Jordan that someone created a thread to advertise his product without asking @Jordan. Have done this more in the past. This is just one very small part of the understanding part.

Ethos? Isn't he one of the Musketeers?



One day, I'll be a moderator. Of what, I have no idea but I will be one. Mark my words.


/joke

If it is, what am I doing here?!?

Proving that this is not a good reason.





Have there been many members whom turned down the moderatorship?

 

[Jordan]

Have there been many members whom turned down the moderatorship?

Yes. @FoolKiller did, twice.

 

[BobK]

Yes. @FoolKiller did, twice.

It neither surprises me that it was offered to him, or that he turned it down.

I sort of feel that if you ask about being a moderator, you actually violate one of the reasons one would be chosen to be a moderator.

Just like the "I CAN ME ADMIN" kid?

Yup, I heard he was actually about to be given admin status, than he made that post and it all went downhill from there.

Just like politics, really.

*whistles*

 

[Johnny1996]

So how many current staff were on the team and still are to this day when this whole "I should me admin" thing took place, if there even is any other than Jordan and Famine?

And that shows the difference between America and Europe at least.

In America you hate career politicians as they look like they are after power, here we like them because 'they know what they are doing'.

Look at Cameron, PPE at Oxford was what he studied.

 

[W3H5]

Niky isn't in America, you know that right? It even says "Philippines" under his avatar...

 

[Lizard]

He is an American in the Philippines iirc.

 

[kikie]

What happened to Delphic Reason?

This statement is not representative of all European members.

Hence the quote marks.

I'm actually a rather recent appointment by some standards, so probably quite a few.

 

[kikie]

"I should me admin"? Never heard of it.

 

[Obelisk]

Right here.

 

[Dagger311]

Right here.

Don't forget the Follow-up post.

I believe I was, but that was so long ago I don't actually remember when I became a moderator.

 

[axletramp]

Yeah, but it did turn out we are all "gay ****ers".

 

[kikie]

Right here.

Thanks!

I remember this.

I blame it on the meds!

Can moderators appoint a member as his deputy without having to ask permission from @Jordan ?

Is it true that @Famine is one of the four horsemen of the apocalyspe?

 

[TB]

No. He's all four.

 

[Silver Arrows]

No. He's all four.

Wow, we're screwed then.

 

[Obelisk]

No. He's all four.

Wow, we're screwed then.

Yep. We're all doomed.

Note to self: Never piss off Famine

 

[kikie]

But we all love him, don't we?
