Moderators Needed

[DaveB]

my outsider vote goes to Pogle as a hamster is a fairly close resemblence to a ferret and so why not..

She's actually a Guinea Pig, not a Hamster*. If she does get it I think you just earned yourself a week off from posting

* On here at least, what she is IRL I have no idea. In the interests of self preservation I shall assume she is Witty, Stylish and Good Looking in equal measure

liberal is your dosing out of bannings...

Zeity would be a good mod, he'd keep forgetting he was one and then go do something mental like delete General or something..

Sounds like a plan to me

pros and cons


pros -





cons -

you get to know who is a sockie and who is real
you get to read all those im's
you cant join in for a laugh
you have to bite your tongue when you are cheesed
you have to explain yourself to, often drunken, bums
you have to watch the legal stuff
you have to monitor those fruit loops
often in a no-win situation



which ones have I missed ?

[Xenophon]

I'm withdrawing.

cojak gets my vote. Her posts are already frequently moderator-esque!

In all seriousness, I think cojak would be a sound choice.

That's the only way to maintain discipline

[Lola]

I could do it - new unseen yet levels discipline guaranteed, quick.

All the best to ferret...

seconded, yes to AtW

I can't believe you've wheeled Lola out for this, AtW.

You only get to see the IP addresses (to determine who is a sockie) if you are admin.

Moderators don't get to see IP addresses, and can't look at PMs, unless they also have database access.
