    I figure only last week that 4 out of 5 were from the North American continent. Euros consider Canadians as marginally palatable Americans you know.

    I would love to work market research, I'd be damn good at statistical manipulation and seeing through bull****.

      and that's why one was added that didn't live in NA. DOH

      So what's your point? Some day when another one is added, I'm sure their timezone will be taken into consideration again.

        That surely is one thing you learn on Poly
        Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
        Then why call him God? - Epicurus

          My point was this:
          You said you were amused that people complain about Americo-centricity, and you justified your point by saying only 2 out of 6 were living in the US. When the complaints were made there were only 5 mods of which 4 lived in NA. Considering that the complaints seem justified to me. The fact that an additional mod from outside NA has been appointed is irrelevant, it was not a fact at the time of the original complaints. It is of course a relevant point for future complaints, so you can be amused in future if you so wish, I'll let you, I'm feeling generous.

          Soo, I was just calling you up on it your reasoning, which to me seemed flawed. Unfortunately the point I was making has been insuccinctly laboured to death and its not even something I particularly care about.

            Don't worry, we all spotted Rah's '2 out of 6' comment - happens all the time...

            The only issue I can think of is the time-zone issue - OT *could* be maliciously jacked for hours and there would be no Mods around to deal with it.
            Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

              But, they would eventually be punished, so as long as it's worth it for the spammers.......

              ACK!
              Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                It could be outsiders, or a bunch of DLs...

                Anyway, academic now that I here UR is in China.

                BTW Glad to see you're back to being 'Tuberski', Deathtongue was so naff!

                Personally I find it mildly irritating when people change their handles - NimDooWarnParkBodRodKieAvenue comes to mind...

                  Well, if my original thread on the subject hadn't been locked by Urban Ranger, we could have discussed that there......

                  But thanks, I aim to please.

                    I guess UR was eager to flex his newfound powers, so I guess we have to talk about it here instead...

                    I noticed he locked one of my threads a bit eagerly as well...

                    Power, as they say...

                      He should change his title to OT Ranger.

                          I was dealing with the future, and I'm sure this site will continue to consider those factors in the future. And I'm glad you'll give me a little credit for that. (of course, my level of influence in those matters is quite limited )

                          The rest was as I said, for my amusment and I'm glad you guys were amused also. As I said, I lie with numbers every day, yet there are obviously many people that take them too seriously. So if you did take me too seriously, I apologize, because I was chain yanking. This thread has been entertaining since I'm not the only one doing it.

                            1) This is an internet site and as such is no place for erroneous or misleading figures. Please take things more seriously in future.
                            2) I would have ignored your misdemeanor had it not been made in the important part of this site, the part where numbers like +1 are taken very seriously by all.

                            Consider yourself warned.

                                Yes, this is JUST an internet site. Lighten up.

                                And my facts were not erroneous.
