Position of Moderator

[mellie]

What is required to bring all this to an end is the arrival of freediver. Until he hands over the keys......there is nothing I can do about appointing anyone.

With a bit of luck - he's lost them. You said you have the keys anyway - so why can't you give Annie the buttons and make the announcement now? FD mightn't even look in here tonight.

Perhaps Aussey wishes to appoint someone they would rather freediver didn't know of until after the fact?

Keys now, mods later kind of thing...

If you keep threatening people this and demanding they state- their-posting-intention... (forum thuggery/bullying), then I doubt people will respond well to being treated like obedient children enslaved to your shrine.

Most of us are used to Aussie's personality now, but when his new moderator is appointed - then a few of us will be banned. Aussie would have probably done it by now - but he hasn't got 100% control yet.

Its like xmas, trying to feel the wrapping paper to see whats inside.

No it wouldn’t. Sure a few dummy spits but the leavers would sneak a few peeks here and dribble back, even AiA will. I have tried to put forward what a mod should be like, his role etc. Don’t think many others have done that. Pasta really isn’t a newby but recently has been absent since a few minutes ago, how could he possibly qualify?

No one is going to be banned, even the cretinous IQ is still stinking the place up.

Mantra, I have access to Moderator buttons, and nothing more. That does not allow me to appoint anyone.

....and Mantra, again you misrepresent the facts. I said I had access to some buttons, and I have never said I have the keys. Wrong again, Mantra.

Mantra, do you think I ought lock this Thread?

You're the boss, Boss - do what you please.

Wow this is much more exciting than the Admin election, not half as much passion in that.

If Aussey has intentions of banning members then perhaps he should make his intentions public?

Re- the appointment of unknown mods, whos to say that the mods he's installing aren't just more incantations of himself?

Look Aussie, we will save you the trouble, if you are planning on banning any of us, how about you tell us, this way we can leave of our own accord, or is it far more satisfying watching people squirm then banning them?

You wont get any argument out of me, or any squirm pal, because if this is your intention, I'd rather just not post here at all, and I think others here would be of the same view.

Look, enough games, lay your cards on the table pal, or i'm out the door, I don't have time for this crap.

Once you get the "keys" Aussie - I will not have the opportunity to express my opinion again - so if you find my comments distasteful - don't worry - you will soon have someone to relegate them to the dustbin.

I'd like to please you. That's what it's all about isn't it.....pleasing you?
