I'd nominate others too, but know for sure that they have at least one other member on silence, so I guess that wouldn't work! It's only nominations at the moment......Fred has been nominated but we don't know if he'll accept. So you still have a nomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you still have a nomination. As I say, Pete, if people have others on mute, then they're not likely to want the gig, so it'd be a bit of a waste of time nominating them? I'd nominate @MooN, but I suspect that he's got his hands full with his new job. Again, he's level headed and articulate. The same goes for @Skippy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Uurrrgghhhhh. Is there an option after you've put someone on ignore to have a warning flash up if you then click 'show this post'? Something like "Remember last time? Are you absolutely sure you want to?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even tempered, doesn't get his hair off, doesn't have a mean word to say and even after a couple of beers and being provoked he still holds it together. You've not heard about his Xmas works dos then. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 @boboneleg and @Buckster would be my choices, Buckster already having declined and Bob already having been offered the thing, I would say @Sir Fallsalot or @MooN are my next choices and I'd be happy with either of the previous four. Neither @Sir Fallsalot or @MooN spend much time here during most days, though, and chances are both might decline too. Start with on one, that's something. Make sure whoever gets it gets to ban people, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh.....I tend to think the same in their cases. The thing is it's no good having Mods if they're not here! Will Sofia be nominating you Pedro?

Will Sofia be nominating you Pedro? How should I know, I hope not. I'd start by deleting all posts that trigger me to ignore said posters, and considering my previous trigger happiness I would say I'm not a good nominee. The responsibility of what would happen would fall on who gave me the gun. Guns don't erase threads or ban people, moderators do 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you need to ban people (unless it's really bad) but a yellow card and then red card (or sin bin type thing ) might work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, one of its main attractions is the variety of people, opinions and subjects that surface here; some of it is of questionable quality (yeah, sorry about that folks) but generally it’s interesting and mostly it’s fucking funny. I mean, you can’t refer to someone as a cunt on Facebook or in the local library anymore so this forum is like a sanctuary from all the sterile, sound bite laden shite that seems to permeate most of social media. Nevertheless, it does need someone to keep an eye on it to make sure it maintains what we have………..and I’d make a terrible moderator anyway because as a good friend of mine once said to me “Do you know what Skippy, your best attribute is knowing exactly how far to go too far” 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
