I just noticed that it's no longer possible to edit in locked posts. Good call. Maybe that's been around for a while but I can be slow on the uptake. :) Anyway, it seems like the logical thing to do.

Just discovered that myself. I'll bet we were trying in the same thread. I tried to post, and got the locked message, so I tried to edit my existing post to add what I was going to say.

Well if you can no longer edit locked threads, I guess this means that 'certain thread', dealing with the modship of that 'certain user' was correct? The only arguement was that maybe the 'certain user' editted his post after the 'certain thread' was locked...I guess that's not a valid arguement, huh?

By the way, I believe the 'certain thread' has been deleted.

Cretin, are you talking about the thread were you claim I'm a Moderator? Well I can assure you that it wasn't me that edited that message nor did I edit out a Mods Message. Of course you can believe what you want but maybe you should consider this. If I were a Moderator you surely would be on my marked list Bwuahahahaha!!!

Seriously, you're coming off as a kid who heard a "secret" and can't wait to tell everybody else. Mods here are anonymous for a reason. Respect that. :p

Ok, if Mike says he's not a moderator we'll just have to believe him.

Of course, I wonder if when moderators are appointed they are instructed to deny any accusations of being one. Or is it just up to the user...if they get found out it's up to them whether or not to deny it or not. Somehow I can't see the following exchange happening:
Appointer - "We'd like you to be a moderator."
Appointee - "Ok, but if I get found out I can't deny it. I don't lie."
Appointer - "Forget it then."

Also, one has to wonder, if the accusation held no water and the two threads weren't some kind of evidence that Croton was correct, why were they deleted? I know one thread was a simple and silly thread dealing with "Russ or Red Dawn: Whose meaner?" or something to that effect. No reason to delete it...or was there? Hmmm.

I can see Mike now. Holding his Miller, chuckling in front of his screen, thinking "What fools. I was found out beyond a shadow of a doubt, gave a lame denial, and they all bought it!?!" Just kidding Mike.

<< Hey I said I was just kidding dammit! >>

;)

I don't know why some people are taking this so seriously. It's not like people are sitting back, rubbing their palms together, "Yes, I finally found that bastard out!" It's kinda fun really. Like a mystery to solve. Like taking one of those murder mystery train rides. :D Those are a blast! You don't earn nothing, you don't win nothing...it's just fun.

It'd be kinda cool really. Red Dawn - the first AT moderator to admit to being one. You know Mike wouldn't be afraid/worried if people knew he was one.
