I understand that I'm not the most popular or well liked member of this forum. Hell I'm a conservative republican, who's not afraid to stand up for his faith or his God. and that makes me controversial.
No way, I think your a good choice, I just felt like you needed some unfair bs thrown your way before you start to achieve balance.

Just stickin up for my libs.

I should also point out, that suggestion is just how I would have handled it hypothetically with the information I have today, hindsight is 20/20, and this isn't a forum like Tech where I am used to so my advice is only as good as that.

I wasn't sure at first, but I decided yesterday that you'd be a good mod. Just don't make me look bad by proving me wrong. ;)

Thank you for the advice Krom and the elegant way you presented it. I will definately remember it when the time comes for me to use it during my career.

You are awesome.

And following your example, I did exactly what you did but the roof didn't cave in on you. Why? I just want to understand the difference between the two examples. I would like to hear it from you, not Koolbear.

I simply told people that whining about it would be met with a nice "STFU" :)

I can be nice and reasonable a lot of the time, but when a user thinks it's funny or a good idea to test me (hurr hurr i'm gonna mess with the mod because I can or because I don't like him ruining my fun) I become raw and get right in their face about it.


*note: poking a mod into taking action isn't cool, funny or 'the in thing to do'. it makes you look like a jackass, a jerk and ruins the thread for everyone else.
