    Hey provost, Ming did the big net nanny again and closed my spink/yo yo thread. Did he close yours?

        What happened to that downloadable Ming AI thingummy that was floating around a while ago? I think Evan put it together along with one that ranted and raved (No prizes for guessing who the second one was for )

          My poll on whether you would heed his warning was deleted.

                  I just want to do what I can to help the owners of this site. This is their hobby, and they need all the help they can get so that we can have a place like this to post....

                  So just helping... Unlike some other people

                    What a saint you are

                    The reality is you, MTG and ML show up occasionally on the OT and just close a few threads and ban a couple of people so Mark thinks you're on the job.

                    I've noticed Ming appearances tend to coincide with what must be the end of your MP sessions Chicago time

                      You mean like the posterbots who say from time to time: "I´m leaving!!!" or "Oh, I´m back"

                      Woud be cool, the site would run without a single human, only posterbots and modbots...

                        Yeah, why not model it after AH, it could randomly post something from a list ot Troll Topics, then it goes into Bait/Insult Mode until the thread is closed.

                          What the mods need is a sort of excel spreadsheet that informs them about threads with the catchwords for trolls such as "___ ***ORZ", etc.

                          that would reduce job-worries and hassles.
                          If the mods are meaner, it is because they have more troubles to conted with.

                            I think a lot of the posters are getting meaner. A lot of them troll and flame a lot due to the silliest of excuses.

                            Maybe they should get some more alcohol in their systems.

                              the Mods are more active recently

                              but that is after a few monrths of below average activity so it was needed

                              (the SPAM and insults that went on, oh my!!)

                              this is just a return to usual business

                                maybe we could make Imran a mod.... he's not much of a troublemaker, and he's not likely to turn evil.


                                Hmmm, then I could justify all the time I spend here

                                I'm not likely to turn evil? That's what I wanted you to think
