...what would you do??.. For me I'd probably make myself supreme overlord Mod of the boards.ie. Then I'd sell off the other mod positions, to the highest bidders (you'd be surprised what some people would pay..) Oh and I'd unlock the Sex & Sexuality Forum. I've always wondered what the hell goes on inside there.

I don't know about the Sex and Sexuality forum. When you think about it, there's no-one there excelt moderators and subscribers, therefore they're probably just giving out about various problems in the sack...

I'd make the warez & tv shows forum open to all, not just mods and members.
Also would add "fora" to the swear list.

I'd do several things.

1. Ban anyone ho has posted "Yore Ma" in the las six months. Permanently.
2. Force Pighead to divulge his real name and ban him for constantly referring to himself in the third person
3. Anyone starting a recession-related thread would be hunted down and castrated, publically, with rusty shovel.
4. Give myself more colouredy stars after my name
5. Lastly, when I'd had my fun, I'd sell the company and emmigrate to the Cayman Islands with the $460,000 odd that the site is apparently worth
