I find Terry a little too immature to Mod AH tbh.

Huggles

Are you for real? Starting a thread on this...

Talk about asking for it...

*waits for the cats.

Basq

Heh.. it was 10000th post - give him a break!

Lighten up for fecks sake!

With the amount of crap he puts up with in AH, no amount of "immature posting" will take away from the sterling job he does.

leninbenjamin

i was going to start a thread on this myself. i think castration be a fitting punishment myself. after all how dare a mod of a stupid pointless off topic forum make a stupid pointless off topic thread. I DEMAND JUSTICE!!!!

Zaph

Personally I thought it was a brilliant and insightful post that really got to the heart of the human condition.

Lands Leaving

Woo! 290th post! Go me!

WOOOO!!!

that is all.

Isn't that a contradiction in terms?

star-pants

Yeh AH is a tough job -- and plus ... 10,000!!! totally allowed!!

Giblet

Well the thread was closed.

Karoma

He closed it after reconsidering it. I'd have locked a thread by any user who did the same (Maybe temp. soft delete it to screw up their postcount)

"... a little too immature to Mod AH ..." -I shall ponder this one a little while longer.


Don't you have better things to be doing like spamming sharchat links? Oooooh... did Big Mean Tewwy give out to you before for doing that? Is that what this is about? Or is it that he locked the recent "How do I change MKV files into AVI files?" thread that you created in AFTER HOURS?!

Basq

To be honest, Saskia sounds far too mature to be using AH.

That's why i typically avoid it... nothing against AH but it's turning more into tCN but i'm not getting into it here.

But like i said, being a mod there is NOT an easy task. I moderate a number of forums and get more than enough reported posts / move threads (etc) as it is - i can imagine AH being a fecking nightmare.

If Terry posted one thread and reconsidered, big fecking deal. People just love shit-stirring!

Vexorg

Almost tempted to delete a post so he can do it again.

Its unlikely that someone making their "10,000th" post Whoot would have it removed, users making 1000, 2000, 3000 post etc announcements would get a smack but 10k is a bit of an achievement and probably warrants a little leeway even from the the bootstepping mods of AH.

A feedback thread about it is perhaps overkill, and as for being immature, well thats what we all love about Terry.

You see Vex, you have now brought Karoma into the equation. It'll all end in tears.







Or maybe cats.

Don't review previous post history. I just did and I gotta say:
Saskia - if you'd like to leave AH well alone, I'd be happier.

Muhahahah..ha... *sigh*

Okay, V, you can lock that account but I have more! muhahaha!

Nah ... posters in tCN typically KNOW that it is a deliberately silly / light-hearted environment, relax and let their hair down.

Some posters in AH don't seem to be able to differentiate between the light-hearted and the serious in other peoples posts ... and a few can't seem to make a difference between sense and silliness in their own. Which is usually bearable until they start to rant about someone else's shortcomings ...

and his bewbs

And here's another thing, how can basquille and Karoma type Bastard and **** and they just come up as feckin asterix's for me huh? Feckin mods thinkin they can do what they like, as if they run the place!

(Here's to hoping i can't actually type them...)

(Ok, bastard is ok, but ****, grr to basquille...)

PPffftttt - If you had ANY idea what AH was like before Terry came along you'd cut him some slack.

I'm feeling generous. I'll allow bastard.

Terry

First off, I clicked on the "Close this thread after posting" option.
The thread was never open.

Secondly, I think you might be a little bitter that I closed your thread the other day.

And look at the really immature comment I made in it.


Now look away.

Well you're ok Karoma, but that basquille is a bit dodgy... *casts sussing-out stare*

Edit: Tales everything back!

at least Terry not only gets to celebrate his 10,000th post with it's own AH but with a feedback thread too.

you lucky , lucky man you Terry I'm so jealous

Terry is really Terri and used to be Sue. Sue used to be a greyhound.

Well lets see. She posted a technology related question in After Hours about a most likely illegally downloaded program and then has the gaul to have a go at Terry about being immature.
This lady will go far in this life.

Potential-Monke

But she does nearly have a red envelope thread for her efforts!

Never thought of it that way. That makes it so much funnier.

Terry

Ahh, I suppose she deserves a serious answer.

Saskia, The thread was never open. It was done as a joke.
Yes, it was an abuse of power. But it wasn't exactly offensive.

Take a look at the threads in AH. It's not really the bastion of maturity, now is it?
You need a certain lever of immaturity to keep your sanity while modding it. The other mods are quite mature, so I just took their immaturity for myself.

Ten thousand posts?

It says 0 under his name?

How the fook did a n00b become AH mod?

Beruthiel

I'm guessing Vex played a joke on you there Terry - 0 posts

Congrats on the 10k and on keeping the spam to one forum.

When I hit the 20k - soon enough - I'll be making a site wide announcement on this seriously momentous ocassion. I'll expect champagne, cake and ballons!

seamus

I'm just pretty stoked that I'm off the Users: Most Posts list. You have to draw the line somewhere.

Beruthiel

You slipped quietly by the 20k mark there yourself seamus, was it one of those small, only VIP's need attend parties? I feel so left out.

seamus

No, it was more like me, my underwear, a bottle of whiskey and a 3-in-one.

Later on I cried myself to sleep.

oh. dear.
