When they called for mods, I laughed to myself and shook my head. Then I thought, well I've been putting posts in the moderators thread so maybe I need to step off the sidelines and lend a hand. I'm sure there are other heads shaking now.The Hitch said:I dont know why you all took on the jobs though.
I'm afraid that is unrealistic, we are human and come with opinions. But hopefully I can temper them and keep my own bias out of moderation duties until the day that improvements in technology result in the first batch of CN forum robots.forty four said:all that is needed is moderators who can be absolutely free of opinions...

Wow, I hadn't even found out I was a mod and you'd already called me a band aid... damn this IS going to be fun. Seriously, I can tell you with sincerity that the mods/admins have had long and active discussions about many situations and they do react to member feedback.

Just a band aid on some real problems.

Hugh Januss said:Yeah well, I recently got 2 points as well and I almost never agree with a single god damn thing that you post. Maybe it's not the message but the delivery?

Spider1964 said:WTF? What about Wonderlance?
Or has he been appointed as a mod to oversee the mods... a 'Supermod?'
Or maybe he is just too busy fighting Cancer? & Jeff?

nickel999 said:Just curious with both new mods and old mods following this thread
Is there a possibility to upgrade the forum software to V-bulletin version 4?
I'm not sure what version CN currently runs here but the new version has more features..etc..
Thank you for considering...
The Hitch said:But you gave yourself away when you said there would be rings in hell. Rings are in heaven, rungs are in hell. Yes the i and the u are close to eachother on the keyboard, but Francois rarely makes any spelling mistakes, and the devil even less.
