Adam Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 It was mildly frustrating, but still far from a horrible, thankless job. EDIT: I keep hearing that I was terrible, so is anyone going to ever actually say why I was terrible? You weren't terrible, in fact I thought you'd be much more of an asshole as a mod. Oh, and I'd support Alf as mod. I mean really, who wouldn't?
Art Sandusky Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 YOU WUZ ONLY MAKED A MOD AS A JOKE! Seriously, that seemed to be the big complaint. I didn't understand the backlash. Well, it was originally a gag for HD, but I asked to be upgraded since I always noticed the little stuff moderators didn't do too often (like name changes) and it came at the height of Big Government TSM so it seemed like a good idea to let a guy get the blue title who went all over the board to do this. Also, the step up from folder mod to global mod isn't all that large. You can do virtually everything you need or would want to do as a folder mod. Ill also came to the conclusion that I was qualified (by messageboard standards) and level-headed enough and had earned the right to at least get a swing. After all, this came after nikjohns was reviled so less rigid people were welcomed.
BUTT Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 What goes on in the staff folder, Spoon? Any wacky stories you can share?
Slayer Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 You were gonna close down the Crono thread before it really had a chance to take off That's WWE Folder mod bad
NYU Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 I'd make Bob a mod too. I'm serious. What about me? As an Admin, I brought Crono T's message board to the heights of popularity.
Failed Bridge Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 ____ I ___ __ __ _ ____ i__s ____ _ a joke. That's for CWM since he doesn't have the time to do it himself now that he's raising two kids.

The Czech Republic Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Posted March 3, 2006 I almost miss CronoT. I mean, at least when I and others antagonized him, it would be fun, because he would get so pissed and just dig his own grave. And you know, maybe if I wasn't so opposed to his abundance of dumbshit behavior, we could've talked Final Fantasy or something. With everyone here that's terrible right now, they're just so ridiculously oblivious to it all that it's no fun because they're just rolling with the punches and boring me to death. And then you've got all these hacks going "hey I respect him for who he is now! I'm so-and-so's fan!" Pathetic. This board's a fuckin' after-school special.
muzz Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 Ban the painfully unfunny people in the WWE forum, and you have my vote.
Golgo 13 Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 Crono was awful, but he was such a pathetic sad sack that you couldn't help but like or at least have sympathy for the guy, even when you were picking on him or he would make a profoundly stupid comment. He was a lovable punching bag, the kind of personality every board needs and has been missing from here since he was banned, despite the repeated attempts to fill the void (wildpegasus, Matt Young), and his banning was quite short sighted in retrospect.
Slayer Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 This board's a fuckin' after-school special. "The Boy Who Posted Too Much" "Please Don't Ban Me, Mod" "Oh Man, I'm on Drugs Right Now"

The entire HD forum has turned into Boardum. I now see the error in my ways of posting there. I feel so abused.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 What goes on in the staff folder, Spoon? Any wacky stories you can share? Kahran Ramsus said I contributed nothing to the board about 2 years ago, I called the board a piece of shit, and I said lots of mean shit to Nikjohns.
The Czech Republic Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Posted March 3, 2006 http://forums.thesmartmarks.com/index.php?...0entry2144671 This is exactly what I'm talking about. You just want to start ripping on him, but why bother? There's no enjoyment to be derived from it. It's all just so awful.

Guest Princess Leena Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 I've left The Pit. Now, can we please hurry up with this stupid fad... you all be friends... and go to your little secret Pit board. Please.
Big Ol' Smitty Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 With everyone here that's terrible right now, they're just so ridiculously oblivious to it all that it's no fun because they're just rolling with the punches and boring me to death. It's amazing how posters can be so terrible and so boring at the same time. It's also crazy to see how that folder has taken such a downturn in just a couple of days. Was it really that good before? Don't know what you got 'til it's gone, I guess.
Big Ol' Smitty Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 I support this cause Me, too. My only concern is that Czech can be really moody and somewhat sensitive as a poster.
Art Sandusky Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 And I thought a week was excessive to allow the silliness to die down. I'm surprised I haven't seen smoke start billowing from HD on the board index.
Sideburnious Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 You know, people give out shit to Fridge for deleting the old Pit. But if this was his board, and he deleted the first page of HD, and stopped "certain" people from posting in there, I'd understand.
CheesalaIsGood Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 I dunno. Make him a mod. He seems to post here enough so Czech is really invested. Of course I'll be banned within ten minutes. But hey, that's life.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 nikjohns really, really hated me, from what I've been told. I don't recall us ever exchanging more than a few words.
The Czech Republic Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Posted March 3, 2006 Of course I'll be banned within ten minutes. But hey, that's life. By virtue of spending most of your time in CE, you're not the kind of dismal mope that I want to throw off the board. you're (comparatively) cool
The Niggardly King Posted March 4, 2006 Report Posted March 4, 2006 I support this, as long as I get to stick around in the background.
Guest CWMwasmurdered Posted March 4, 2006 Report Posted March 4, 2006 Maybe we should have done mod elections.
