Thanks, Diploid. I'm sure this is going to be a pain in the butt!.

Totally time to change the forum name though. Multiple words and syllables is so 00's. Let's go for something simple and onomatopoetic.

How about Duh.

His mind is like a great peak                of whom he is the patriarch
his ego doesn't bow to others            fools all sing his praises
he can lecture on the vedas              wise men clap and laugh
or discuss the Three Religions            a will o' the wisp a flower in space
in his heart he feels no shame            how can he avoid old age
flouting rules and breaking precepts    better to know nothing at all
he boasts a law for superior men        to sit and not speak and have no cares ~ Han Shan

No sirree.  Part of your job description is to be hated and loathed by the entire forum for having to enforce rules that people don't think should apply to them.

I apologize for congratulating you.  That was improper.  I should've sent my condolences.

I just want to notify you all before I go through with this. So, the following people are banned. Er, well, it'll just be easier if I tell you who is not banned. Please see the following list of those who will not be banned at 00:01 GMT Nov 23 2009:

So you can post your usual nonsense ideas and then claim that nobody can debate them.

Sounds like something you would try.

This feels like the time I voted for a Govt candidate and regretted it when he wen ahead to try and enforce his totalitarian ideology. :obama:

I found myself thinking, perhaps it was better to vote for the religious war veteran after all!?

*sigh

Well, for me the rational thing is to abstain for political involvement altogether.

I mean since the system is corrupt from top down.

Sounds like a very rational idea. Any 'vote' is just endorsing the current system, so I agree on that level. But sometimes I have voted on who I think would be least likely to trample over too many of my rights.

Nowadays there is no lesser of two evils so to vote is pretty much pointless.

Since it's America I expect half of you to ignore the thread. Additionally I expect nearly everyone to bitch, gossip or hold ill opinions about the moderators and site managers. I also expect you to say you want freedom from any (moderator) rule, yet require more and more mods and then to turn around and blame everything on them.

No, they were pleasant. Well, until these Bible-toting, Lao Tzu quoting, US flag-toga wearing, Shroomerites came with torches to my ivory tower and threatened to drown me in the loch.

Some people, probably not you, see the position as it it were worth something, something of value.  They don't realize what a royal pain-in-the-ass it really is.  So, in that sense, I felt, as congratulations are usually expected in this situation, I offered mine.

You don't seem to be a long-timer.  That's why I asked.  The longevity of any one particular mod has a lot to do with their expectations, and their personal life offline.  If you don't have a life outside the Interwebz, and the experience meets your expectations, and you like positions of power, you can maintain the position indefinitely.

One thing is certain, you won't be able to fix the forum.  The tools are not at your disposal.

Don't feel bad though.  If it could be fixed, it would have already been so.

Provided one is the yin and the other a yang. If they are both Yangees, then we could all be in trouble.

It seems I'm the moderator, while Diploid has become the moderator hole, so everything's all yin and yang as it should be. Perhaps the reference was too vague. :smirk:
