Is impersonating a mod a ban-able offense?

They might do

Something like this

Do NOT do that again.

It's stupid if you ask me, but some children get a kick out of it.

I guess if someone --other than a real mod-- started banning people and locking threads. Yeah sure, that's probably a bannable offense.
 
I'd say it is. Some unfortunate soul came in and posted as "Anandtech Moderoter."

He/she didn't last too long.
 
Shawn, first off, that's so easily not edited by a mod.

You MUST always remember to have the t on tech in caps


Paulson's right.

- obviously it's me doing this, but just to give you an example 🙂
 
The "Message edited by: shawnmos on 06/15/2001 21:32:52 " is still a dead giveaway. 😉
 
Well, not really, because he has that 😉 below his post, which means he could have updated his post after the mods did, but knowing him, he's faking it ...
 
I think the key is that if you DO NOT see the following on the bottom of post it is bogus

See no edit ..
 
Damn mod.

Now it makes me look stupid!

😀
You don't need our help to do that


Jeez mods, remember to put the / on your tags 🙂 My sig doesn't need to be all bold!

How do you know whether some mothers are mod's here or not? 😀
 
<<But I don't go around acting as someone's mother trying to fix others mistakes!>>

What would you rather have...a gentle correction by a mod or continue to make mistakes? 😉

Besides, I know at least one mod to have made a typo or two before. I wonder if that's the typo mod??? 😛


Yes it is 🙂
