What Makes A Good Moderator?

[Marlin]

Dont ask me. my drama quota's all full for the year, sorry guys. You can say whatever the hell you want, I'll glance up from my beer, glance over at one of the mods, glance back at my beer, shrug, and continue along.

But you better watch your ass come 2012....

For the most part, This.



























Oh, and too the op, If you sent me the credentials, and volunteered to go into the snake pit that is the trading post, I would have made you a moderator.

Damn, when Roger, 7idl, and Hoser show up it'll be a party!

Kidding aside, I like the crew here. I've spent lots of time elsewhere and we honestly have it made here; no lock/ban happy mods with with too much time on their hands and something to prove here.

ETA: I still think the mods should get together ant throw us a 'member appreciation' BBQ.

This is a good board, I'm active on another board with excellent mods too.

I couldn't tell you what makes a good moderator or well moderated board but I've been on enough boards to know it when I see it.

I think this video from their last meeting explains a lot.

I was a moderator for several years on a local car site. One time a guy threatened to "blooooow you away!" at the next car meet. Fun times.

Blown away at the car show?

Potatoes work well according to the movie people.

Technically that would make them tubers.

A purple hippo, slapping it's ass, is always mandatory for a good party.



Picking my instrument now.

mods are like cops.

some are fair, honest, patient and hardworking.

others are tired, impatient, pig headed and angry.

and a few are just plain insane.

here the mods are top notch.
