Mod on CN forum

[Hugh Januss]

Would it be more fun to have bamboo splinters shoved under your fingernails or to be a moderator on this forum. Discuss.

 

[Susan Westemeyer]

I just love those bamboo splinters......

[usedtobefast]

Its not as bad as people think.

(bamboo under the fingernails, I mean. Its actually kind of pleasant)

Because Susan is on holiday does that mean that mean more incidents will slip by the keeper?

 

[Bala Verde]

I use them as toothpicks afterwards... So versatile.

Careful what you wish for. It could well be that Susan is the balancing force that stops the rest of us Mods from Banning half the membership when you misbehave..... just sayin...

This place needs "junior" mods who have limited duties or areas of moderation.

Simply having four or five people whose sole duty is to ban [trolls and spam accounts] and delete [their] posts would get rid of the problem. It is low tech solution, but it would work. If a junior mod oversteps his bounds then take away his moderatorship.

This place needs "junior" mods who have limited duties or areas of moderation.

Simply having four or five people whose sole duty is to ban BPC and delete his posts would get rid of the BPC problem, expecially since he now announces who he is by PMing users with his first posts. It is low tech solution, but it would work. If a junior mod oversteps his bounds then take away his moderatorship.

You mean like you, huh?

As I said yesterday, the real trolling that goes on by people like yourself, and the 1 post anti Lemond threads, are areas that need to looked at first and foremost.

Why are you obsessed with me simply for being banned before? Doesn't make any sense.

The forum could not survive without Susan. Only she can pull off the Mom "go-to-your-room" warnings posted in regular threads. My favorite Susan-ism is "this is a cycling forum, not a sex forum."

Susan rocks!

If I were a Mod I's be sooo anti Yank

Exactly what is it that you think I actually do all day?

Joking asside, I started out as exactly that - a junior mod - and wasn't given full powers to ban etc until what felt like 30seconds before the Tour started...

 

[Barrus]

Small question, did I suddenly become a mod? I can suddenly delete threads, add infractions and see peoples IP adress. I know I applied, but did someone forget to notify me that I became one? Or is it some kind of glitch?

If posts are going to be edited for that reason, we might as well close up right now, as there will be very little left to read.

Edit: Does that mean Wonderlance won't be recieving his moderatorship?

This was even more inane than usual.

And yes, I'm afraid that Wonderlance won't be a mod here.

FWIW I thought the "Reason: Inane Twaddle" was hilarious...and Hugh's response equally hilarious...and chapeux Susan on the response to the response.

Also, wouldn't inane twaddle actually mean "silly silliness"?

This post is likely inane as well, but I felt compelled to share

This is cerncorship! I cannot stang a voilation of my liberty this is unconstitutional!

All I want to do is make things better for people like me and ACF who can recognise that our heros are infallable and good looking as well.

Yeah, if Susan meant to say "silly sillyness" I'd say she nailed it.

exactly what "Constitution" are you talking about?

 

[Alpe d'Huez]

That's my guess.

I think the only way Wonderlance will be a mod here is if Chris E is a mod here as well, you know, to balance things out. But by all means WL, don't let me stop you from your campaign.

Because Susan is on holiday does that mean that mean more incidents will slip by the keeper?

Susan may be the den mother, but when it comes to deleting posts and banning people, I am The Hammer and Martin is The Sickle.



(Sorry, that was in jest. Actually, this entire post/thread is in jest, right?)

 

[WonderLance]

I think there are so many haters as moderators that it is only fair to have someone who knows the truth about Lance and Cycling to moderate the forum

but if you say so i must start a campaign to make ChrisE a moderator. He can be a moderator and I will be a Super mod or WonderMod.

 

[Martin318is]

Iam offended by the implication that I am a hater.

I certainly am somebody that accepts the truth!

If you become a mod, then so should I. Except that I would need to take myself seriously if I did.
