It's time to make BigFr... err... OptedIn a mod.

43 replies
It's time to breathe some new, refreshing life into the mod team, and short of that, we have Frank.

It's is long overdue.

Because he's the hero Warrior Forum deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark... wait... that's something else. Nevermind.

Just make Frank a mod.

Besides... if Tagiscom can do it, clearly anyone is qualified.

    I think Frank would make an excellent moderator.

    He is fair minded, even tempered, not impulsive at all, open minded, empathetic.....

    I'm joking.

    But I do think he would make a great mod.

          You LANCED it? Hope you held the needle over a candle first. OH, you had it lanced, what, too scaredy to do it yourself? Did the Yoga class thank you?

          As for B. Frank, he said the really nice van was getting the pungent stench of a dead river, and although he had hope to stay until a birthkay celebration, he just couldn't abide with the stench. Maybe he has the right idea. I need a van, and a new river too.

          PS, Princess, next quorum, just put a warm poultice of cannabis over it, and be happy about it too.

      I have no idea what you're talking about. I observed his content since registering. I see a ton of bad content here.

      At least he flags the spammers and calls bs when he sees it. You gotta respect somebody for that.

      Well, to each your own. After all, that's the world we live in...

  • All I know is, mebbe we might all figure a more productive ride if'n we trained summa the infinite monkeys up.

    That way, they would not ruin their purdy nails hackin' out gibberish, an' evrywan could get to sleep without the relentless clickety-clackin'.

    Who was it said, "when blind randomness delivers progress, either it is evolutionary fortune or an out-front proboscis pipes up with My horse, my horse, my Kingdom for a horse from outta noplace-- like they figured freaking equines possessed any command over smartness or fate"?
