just my 2 cents woth her about the mod votes:

Look for the ones who game habits have been mild, ie, no whining- argueing etc as well as good sportsmanship, mild manored - one who also doesnt pay much attention to chan 200 etc

#2 doesnt come accross as a politician with an ego base for the position....egos are very destructive.

#3Must be fair minded and somewhat educated as well as patient.

etc
etc
etc

Just started lookin at game again so work with me:)

While I happened to miss the O'Club getting shut down due to dealing with severe technical issues on my comp (posting from my wifes comp), I do sincerely hope that I was never a contributor to the problems that lead to the O'Club being shut down. If I was a contributor, it was never my intention to do so and I offer my apologies.

I always tryed to discuss things civilly and with respect to the other posters. Sometimes I can be a bit dense and someone else's point may not become clear to me until later. Like the thread where Silat posted a Webster's definition of a cult, and for some reason I took it as a list of qualifying factors, (it was late and I was very tired, shoulda waited to respond until the next day) when I realized my mistake I was like.....DOH! DOH!! DOH!! :rofl

For the most part I have enjoyed the off topic discussions here, including the threads on politics, religion, gun control etc etc. I have learned many things here including how to Google :D


Dunno how you guys would feel about me being a moderator, but I would volunteer to help out with this if it means we can keep the O'Club. I understand that my migraines may be more frequent and more severe, but if it contributes to a kinder and gentler O'Club then it just may be worth it :)

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Looks like anonymous moderation has been activated, with moderation accounts to preserve anonymity.

I for one, welcome our new, moderating overlords.  :D

The MP setup sounds perfect for this group.

Well looks like I'm the 1st subject of MP editing. I'd like to apologuise for the offense as malice was not intended. I do question the method used. Deleting the entire news story and not just my 2 line comment that was suppossed to be a joke. I thought I had selfmoderated the language to a PG-13 level. I realise we are still in the early stages and it is a huge learning curve on the part of all parties.

Still, I would have bet huge amounts of cash that I would'nt have been numero uno. to the Mod Squad.

Hi Guys,

Just so there is no speculation, especially in religious threads, I am not, I repeat not one of the moderators.

May God grant our new umpires wisdom and patience - they'll need it.

Sandman,

Given the grief these guys are going to get, I'm willing to solemnly swear before God that I'm not one of them. To quote the song:

"It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no no no, It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate son, no no no..."

I get enough grief in my daily work and owing to my wonky postings.

Nope, I'm chicken enough to not want to be in the universally hated ref category.

Hmmm... but... what about you? VE VILL HAVE ZE ANSWERS VE VANT Mr. So-called Sandman, or should we say "SandMPan?"

Wow, I hit the Daily Double. 2 threads in 1 day. Guess I need to re-evaluate my self editing.

Just a question for future reference, and I'll direct it to Skuzzy so as not to attempt to sniff out the secret identities of the Mod Squad. Since my previous method of bleeping/editing harsh language is not acceptable, is Beetle Bailey style (i.e. #&*!) acceptable? It is used in the Sunday Funnies that are targeted towards children.

I'm being serious here and not antagonistic.

Since we're using lyrics here....

You say you're lookin' for someone
Never weak but always strong,
To protect you an' defend you
Whether you are right or wrong,
Someone to open each and every door,
But it ain't me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe,
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

I only got one nomination, by Bodhi, so I never figured I'd be on the list, never mind the short list, or making the cut. So, rest assured, Hilts ain't no moderator. That is probably a good thing, I'm figure my personal faults would make me of questionable value.
