I'd much rather be an immigration officer.

So would I! Then I could give EZ visas to the people in singlets and flip flops and delay, delay, delay, reject, reject, reject on the "elite" people who think their fish sauce don't smell!

Don't get me started ...

Perhaps he meant the hot wings with suicide sauce?

Yes, it IS all about the food.

Is this the standard TV mod diet? I imagined the life of fame and fortune differently!

They get that for their birthday. Normally it's porridge. Mods LOVE porridge.

Nice! There is definitely some kind of guidebook in there: 101 for Successful Mods

Do not. Be deceived. They are not like you and me. They are the thing apart. They are the ... MODS.

You don't "want" to be a mod. That's so crass. That's like "wanting" to win a Nobel Prize.

Some mods are ok but there are also some that use their power for evil by deleting some posts yet leaving the original inflammatory post. Still can't work out why that is done.

Then you have the mods in the ladies forum, the less said the better.

If they are not paid for it I have no idea why they would do it, time consuming and a pain to have to be online at certain times. If they do get paid then some are overpaid. :)

Ladies forum is a bit like gatecrashing a coffee morning.

They will tolerate it up to a point.

Anyway....give and take....ups and downs.....I refuse to comment further unless......:ph34r:

I have it from a reliable source that in the near future all mods on this forum will be required to use picture from them on the job as their avatar, to avoid confusion between them and regular members.

At the same time their " title " below their avatar will be corrected to describe their real function on this forum.

I could get hold of one of the early admissions to the adminstrator desk, but in all fairness I've removed the name of the mod since it isn't official yet.

Well actually my post was congratulating them for having a good time with something. Somehow that was not nice. I guess I'm just deleted on reputation :)

But I do agree that being a mod must be frustrating and would take an awful lot of time. Some must have great patience.

That is not very nice of you to hack into my facebook page and copy my profile photo. Shame on you. :)

Every member who has had a suspension for seven or more days should be made to moderate correctly for eight hours over the weekend before being re-admitted to the community.


Offenders call it community service.

many here act like mods already.

They also try to act like Immigration officers to, thinking only they have a right to be in the LOS.

Incorrect, I have the right to be here in LOS, you are here under sufferance.

On TV we are all here under sufferance of George.

And some of the other posters increase the sufferance.

We could send the least favoured posters off for a detention via poll every month.

That would keep 'em on their toes! biggrin.png

Who would run the poll? Would the pollster be elected? Can I start paying my bribes by installments now? If I appeal before conviction, can I get any future sentences to run concurrently? Can we still listen to Onionluke's music in detention?

Depends a little if the poll is not as rigged as that other yearly poll coffee1.gif

I don't have an opinion on moderation or being a moderator beyond it being a pretty thankless task... but someone has to do it. As in life, I reckon the lady mods are sweethearts whereas the blokes, well... that's testosterone for you.

I reckon that TV probably loses some tiny bit of its revenue stream each time a gobshite is suspended. Maybe they can't post but that doesn't stop the average punter logging in and browsing anyway, counting the minutes till the suspension expires and they can post again. Well, that's how I handled my last... sabbatical. I reckon those that can post probably create more revenue than the 'just looking' or lurkers by making other people respond and contribute to threads.

I reckon that instead of suspensions, TV should consider a sin-bin, a sub forum where suspended members can still grandstand, pontificate, relentlessly call troll (ya hearing this oak?) and otherwise wallow in their own pit of self-important mediocrity with as much wailing and gnashing of teeth that their ISP bandwidth allows. They could call the forum Hades, Hogwarts, Purgatory, Pentonville, Pattaya.... no, scratch that last one (it's been done already) Area 51, The Abyss, M25, etc.. The topics would be auto-generated with such pithy subjects as "Help! My Nasturtiums have died!" or "Do You Remember the Daily 5PM Carrefour Staff Singalong?" Since it would still need moderation, it should have an automatic but random and totally arbitrary purge so anyone bitter and twisted with a hankering for doing some serious mischief to the forum doesn't have much opportunity.

That way, the mods may possibly get an easier tour of duty and the TV cash register keeps going ka-ching!
