I haven't bene online fro awhile where have all the mods gone?
 
Retired.

Me Axyon and Bliink are still ruling with fists of iron and hair-scrunchies of elastic though :)
 
Along with the rest of the staff badger :)
Its not the same without me though! :P

I didn't retire, that would suggest that I don't do anything else now. :)
 
Qck, Farrow, and TDE retired to do other things.

The site is still the same tho.

No, to say you had retired would suggest that you actually did something in the first place :laugh: :p. Joke, by the way :o

Nothing much has changed though, just keep an eye out for Bliink though and dive for cover anytime you see her and her whips and chains.

Just had a very dark thought of you with your whips and chains, glad your dynasty has come to an end, only to be replaced by a much darker, more sinister dynasty.
 
Bah...Bliink ain't so bad. ;)

In terms of darkness and meanness...TDE still has the crown.
 
whoa, didn't see that farrow was 'demoted' so to speak :p
 
what do you do to become a mod?

what do you do while your a mod?

Not ask

what do you do while your a mod?

Get rid of all the troublemakers, spam, ads, move countless threads, lock countless threads, warn people who are flaming, have to watch the forums for hours on end to catch things quickly and lots of other stuff thats private and I ain't sayin.

It takes a lot of free time to read through every post that any ever makes, then you have to deal with the complaints and the moaning and the whining, then you have to discipline people as well, and it is very difficult if the people you are disciplining are friends of yours.

But no matter how good a job a mod is, there will always be someone who thinks they're too strict or too leniant.

Well exactly. You can't win here as a mod, whatever you do will be the wrong thing according to someone. You just get used to annoying PM's and delete them automatically. You don't get a lot of time for yourself and it basically is a thankless "job" and you become a target aswell.

However it is cool for the first few weeks having lots of power over the forum ;) But like godmode in HL, it gets boring after a while :)

Naa it can be a lot of fun sometimes, the active mods just do a heck of a lot more than many people realise, and usually get told to **** off for their troubles, which isn't nice really and makes you wonder why you even bother giving up so much time for the community at times.
 
You've obviously never been on the receiving end of my special attention, then.

Don't deny the love.

*hugs*
 
You see those 4,735 posts of yours? See them?

Very soon, they'll all be personal testimonies on how much you like the sexual company of small animals.

Ok ok!If you don't want any hugs I can understand...

*slowly backs off*

Awww PiMuRho's just a big pussy cat really, you just got to know how to tickle his tummy properly so he doesn't bite you :p

I feel sad because people are laughing at me :(

You should all be sad...
If you didn't retire we wouldn't be now would we?

Nobody is laughing at you. Remember when you PM'd me thinking I was blocking you on MSN and I wasn't? Same thing here, _all in your head_ :)

*fluffles teh Sparrow* cheer up, could be worse eh :)
 
I've always had respect for you Sparrow, after seeing those meaty set of sides you've got :p
 
Not everything I say is true TDE :)

No, you'd all be bowing to me. By now I'd have taken over, and made it mandatory to purchase a webcam so I could watch you all bowing to me.

Hey Jimmeh I'm coming to London on monday :D Maybe I'l let you get a closer look of those meaty sides :naughty:

:P

Exactly...so you screwed yourself.

GJ! :P
 
Hehe :) Yay for London! What you up to down here then?

*tries to contain laughter*

Who's laughing at you...?

*snickers*

Really, we all love you.

*bursts into hysterics*

Cool cool :) I love London, the city that is. I hate where I live now (Kent). But then again, London's only a 20 minute train journey away :D
 
London is fun, but I wouldn't like to live there :)

Too many people who don't know that 'u' isn't pronounced 'a'.

An example of this is Duck. It is not pronounced 'Dack' :P

Imagine if they pronounced it with an 'i'.

:D
 
:laugh:

Well up north, "i"'s are replaced with "e's" (or "a''s in Scotland)

For example - "Sit" or "Git". It is not pronounced "Set" or "Get" ;)
 
lol true true, I think when I went up to Scotland all I ate was fish and chips. But I'm not complaining :P

It's weird though, people like you and TDE - I don't really know how to explain - it's just very strange when you've been a mod for ages - you know, that authorative figure on these boards, and now the both of you are just "one of the lads" so to speak :P

It's just not right ;)
