    • So far I have never been "moderated" . Yet, that is.

      I've been spanked here before, and I like it a lot.
      And thanks for that excellent sig material, Asher!

      I consider to use it.

          • The picture is from the movie "StarGate"

            No, I'm not an owner, just a peon.

            There was a busy period in the OT when Ming was the only real active Mod. My brother lives close to me so we spend a lot of time together. You wouldn't believe how much effort he puts into helping at this site. Since I've been around since the beginning and owe a debt of gratitude for the thousands of hours of enjoyment resulting from all the discussions and games that I've played, I asked Ming if could use a little help. After some discussion with the owners, the rest is history.

            You take a lot of abuse and it does require quite a bit of effort and sometimes I wish I was just a regular poster again. But when you find something that brings you enjoyment, it's only fair to contribute back to help it flourish.

            I think they agreed to make me a mod, because I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it. My experience has been that it's usually better to give authority to those that don't actively seek it.

              Flash should take note. Then again, if he followed this stategy and actually became a mod...

                Which is why you should never vote for a politician who asks for your vote.

                • I can't think of anything worse than being a mod here.

                      Hehe. Wait until they test you by asking whether you want it, then say no, definitely not, exactly 3 times. Then after that you can claim they forced you into it.
