You could call it that

[Ranger Mom]

You wouldn't really expect the owner of a board to elect someone to moderate they didn't know and trust, do you??

You don't get it all!!:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

You have to have been a poster for a while, you have to be trustworthy and have the respect of most of the posters.

You need to drop all of this while you still can!

Ain't that the truth!! Like I have said countless times....we're damned if we do and damned if we don't.

Based on the feedback we get though, it's just a handful that have a problem with one or all of us. The majority of posters think we do a fine job!!

[Bull's-eye]

What happens if we find a current moderator not using "there" or "their" correctly? Can we take "their" job? :) :)

[lakers]

I am goin with "there" since it is being used as an adverb... ;)

[sinton66]

It wasn't the only qualification, only the first.

[slpybear the bullfan]

From the stuff I see sent to the Mods, they do a heckuva fine job.

They're an awesome group, as can be seen by their refusal to go "there" with some knuckleheads, even when it is justified.

(thats 3-3 if we are keeping score. ;) )

All kidding aside... wonderful group. If the need arises and we have to add more, we would be lucky to find more like them.

Yes, they are a wonderful group!

Does a mod score at least 50 on a standardized IQ test if they show there a-- on a message board. Just asking in reference to your sign.

I didn't understand the question, (I have quoted it below)....I thought maybe we were supposed to guess the missing word.

My guess is "many," making the sentence NOW read, "How many mods does this board need?"

My guess is "many," making the sentence NOW read, "How many mods does this board need?"

but "mod's" would still be incorrect.

It should be "mods".

If only I could get past that breaking wind thing at dinner, I really think I might have a chance! :nerd:

When I was asked 4 or 5 years ago if I would consider it, I thought about it long and hard. There are days I miss just being a "normal" poster, but I felt this board was important enough to me to dedicate what I could to it.

Back in the day when we could change people's names in the chat.....THAT was when being a mod was a blast!!!!
