I'll start: Elfenix's sig about fava beans and chianti was a quote by me as the mean mod.

See, now you're just playing for the crowd. Next thing you know, you'll be saying you invented the troutsmack. :p

I wish we could post a list of vacations/bans and which mod issued them,a lot of folks would be apologizing now.

let it be now known,I am not the menopausal angry because I'm too old and too fugly to fsck mod hanging on your every word just waiting to make your emo life complete by banning you.

Humm, I guess most of the cool/elite people did end up being mods. Perhaps I should have taken that offer.:Q

On a serious note though, I hope this doesn't lead to too much harassment of the moderators.


Harrasing Moderators will be one way to earn a vacation or a permanent ban

You'll get harassed the other way too though. Like, "Oh, I've been around for 8 years, let me be a mod too".

Keeper, sure why not. But inventor, hell no. Unless you wrote mIRC? :D

I'd certainly be curious to know which mod's corn flakes I pissed in on numerous occasions.


Jut be sure you don't piss in mine! :p

Let's hope the distinction can be drawn between 'harassing' and 'calling Red an argumentative old coot when he's being an argumentative old coot' ;)

I have every faith it will be :beer:

Public moderation works perfectly fine everywhere else. Harassment doesn't mean much, it just means those who really want to be banned will get their wish granted twice as fast. Public moderation does mean moderators have to be more careful that they are banning someone for a rule break and not a disagreement. I'm not saying that has happened in the past, because in the previous system it was impossible to know.

Does this mean I can talk to Minendo / Harvey directly about an account issue?

So if we used to PM some of these people for matters other than forum issues, we no longer can?

That's what it says, at least.

I suggest 'in their official capacity' would clarify that one.
