Cheers Sparkey. The 'Brown envelope' is in the post. Now get back over the bridge you piss smelling sheepshagger. You know you're not allowed out after 6pm
Natch (or anyone else who's considering the mod thing). From a Cardiff perspective, the only thing I have to do is a little housekeeping just to keep things sort of tidy. (I draw the line at washing up though). I've only 'acted' on one occasion when a specific user was targeted with personal and family abuse. After a quick PM to Syd, that was resolved fairly quickly. Banter is one thing but there is a line.
The NOT606 Cardiff family are pretty self-sufficient (as I'm sure you guys are) and deal with any wum's (or in some cases, complete morons) pretty efficiently. It would be easy for me to delete threads/posts but it's far more entertaining to see certain people have their arses handed back to them on a plate.
The whole sheepshagger thing is more amusing than offensive (as I'm sure carrot munching, turnip loving yokel is to you - at least I now hope it is

) Personally, I haven't shagged a sheep for ages - at least not since the court case (I do miss Dolly)
A sense of humour is definately a bonus too. I've been surprised how easy a wum is nullified once you turn what he says onto yourself. It kinda kills any come back and can put an end to what potentially could become a tit-for-tat abuse war. No doubt it'll pick up once the season kicks off but that's just par for the course.
I didn't use the BBC606 much but I've heard a lot about the over-zealous moderation but this is certainly no power trip and I'd get slated if I tried but as Sparkey said above, others don't see it the same (I guess it's down to the individual teams how they run their own boards). Plus you get an extra box of cool toys to play with (I'm still figuring some of them out).
One final thing, as a mod, you'd be in a position to change that god awful banner...it's shocking!
Anyway, apologies for the long post. It's just my take on the whole mod thing.
Enjoy your season wurzels
