The Moderator Vote

I remember once drunkenly pleading with Ric to make me a mod. It was a long time ago but it's still a fond memory if only for how hard he laughed at me...
 
I have no axe to grind with any of the mods. Never fallen foul of any of them, even after a possibly pivotal post in a certain thread from last year (think Italian descent fast food, telephone-based transport solutions and wartime Prime Ministers). Maybe I'm not trying hard enough.
I've only ever met one of them, at West Brom in the Carling Cup, and he did shout 'bring back Alan Ball' when Roberto made a substitution he didn't agree with, but that was a bad night for everyone there....
Damocles in particular has gone up in my estimation after revealing he got a pipe for Christmas.
How's that going, Damo? Can you blow smoke rings yet? Does it
give you added gravitas during a pub debate?
 
100% support for Wheelsy here, I also think it's important to have a mod on the "reverse" time-zone.
 
I think they all do a good job, I don't how they do it tbh, as this is a very busy forum. I log out for a couple of hours log back on and its a whole new page of threads to look through. We should all be thankful that its so well run despite it being so busy.

You're all top lads, while being very different characters and personalities. Surprised to see Trigger getting grief as well as I've always found him absolutely sound as a pound.
I would quite gladly allow any of you to buy me a pint.
As a fellow nicotine addict, I would especially love to hear how Damo is getting on with his new-fangled 'smoking engine'
 
Is it just me or do I get the Dad's Army vibe in here?

Smoking a pipe was so hard that I quit smoking altogether rather than try and smoke it any longer. Been smoke free for about a month or so now, cold turkey. Slipped up once a few weeks back and had a cheeky cig whilst pretty drunk, but otherwise completely done. Don't even get major cravings any more. Nicorette is for pussies.
 
Overall, not had a problem with any mod since joining the site. They seems to keep the site clean and readable. One of the best things about Bluemoon.

Compare these mods to other football forums and it's not even close.

Keep all mods . All of them do a good job but Damocles, Ducado , de niro , Wheelsy , Gstar , shadygiz and Dubai Blue deserve a special mention

So, if i buy the wife a pipe chances are she will give up the coffin nails? i'll try it, its the 2nd to last resort. the last resort is sending her to Quitters Inc. but with her track record i just know i will end up with no fingers left and get electrocuted every other fecking day!!! :(

Back on topic, what exactly do you have to do as a mod? is it a case of just watching the telly screen for 3 hours at a time and trying not to cause a nuisance to the good and honest hard working members?

Has any mod ever been removed from office due to his power hungry disposition or his extreme harsh or liberal approach?

When you ban someone do you have to justify the bannng made to anyone?

How do you become a mod? is it something you are born into - likeTony Hart was born into drawing stuff? i dont want to be one, mind, fecking no chance trying to get this Zoo organised!!!

i think the following phrase sums up 'modism'

"those that can, do. those that cant, mod"!! (talk shite that is, before a ban comes my way!!)

Now can I just say this thread isn't about long winded opinions, and I don't expect the Mods or Ric to take it seriously or to take drastic action, its just about the Forum Members selecting their choice of 3 options for each Moderator:
- Keep, Get Rid or Unsure.

These are the Mods, type your option next to their username (mine are shown):

de niro: Keep
Damocles: Unsure
Ducado: Keep
Trigger: Keep
shadygiz: Keep
Matty: Unsure
TINY: Unsure
GStar: Keep
cleavers: Keep
Wheelsy: Get Rid
Dubai Blue: Keep
drsqueggy: No idea who this is tbh


I never knew GStar had been given mod status, how the f*ck did you manage that one Chris? can I post those pics you accidently left on that phone I bought off you now? ;)
