I've been keeping a list. It's just a matter of time

You think you will get one?

Not as long as you just are mod in an OnTopic forum. There you just pass any bad threads over to the OT where the big mods live (or you close them before anything really bad starts) And if, doubtly, anything bad should happen you still can have Ming toi do the dirty work.

Sssst, I don't want info on that to spread too much - keeping open the possibility of being able to ban gives me a weapon to control my subjects

[Immortal Wombat]

no banning rod eh? what about a PC-sythe?

[Locutus]

I don't think so. But I can close and delete as many posts and threads as I want (within the CtP2 forums) - and I have a direct line with Ming and the admins

You never know, you never know. With MTG cutting back on the time he spends here, Ming will need all the extra help he can get. The future is always unknown.

Congrats, Locutus

It *is* about time. You've been the unofficial mainstay of the CTP2 forums for well over a year.

You might get one as you are OT mod, but that a section mod would get one is a very little chance, unless the section activity goes very high, and stays there.

you never know...

(oh who am I kidding? )

[Locutus]

I have no aspirations of ever getting a banning rod. I have better things to do than to deal with the messed up characters I so much enjoy reading about in the Ban Log (as a passive bystander)...

Thanks Peter

Personally I'd like to expand to a few of the CIV forums to help Ming out. I figure I'm actually interested in reading what goes on in those.

Smart man... That way, you don't have to deal with them to infect your home computer with viruses... spamming your email account... people signing up for porn sites using your email address... all the fun stuff we have to put with when we ban somebody

But I will admit, some of the PM's I get are simply to funny to believe

First: Congrats Wouter.

Actual who needs one in the CTP2 forums the messed up characters moved to another location already.

Actual this is not funny, even my email address was signed up for a porn side It just happend once, but it is still unwanted mail. Maybe I should remove my email address from my homepage...

Fourth:This thread is full of mods maybe adding some modmakers is also a good idea. I see here a big advantage here if you are a mod and a modmaker. So congratulations to Wouter again.

My God! Have individuals actually done this to you?

If you have to put up with this type of activity, I do believe that I've discovered a new-found respect for you...

All the time... they once even set up a Ming Hate Site so they could talk about their petty revenges...

I've had to wipe my hard drive twice because of viruses... (needless to say, I have much better security now) And I won't even tell you how many porn sites have my email address... But somebody has to do the job
