I for one look forward to questioning every moderator decision while casually opining that I'd make a good mod. Boo! Discrimination! All the mods are Hamilton end! How can we Arts Block folk get fair representation! Rabble rabble rabble, etc.

In short, congrats!

The other guy in the running was JC 2K3, and well, he had to go far away. Fad was in with a chance but unfortunately PFM set back the cause of women moderators everywhere for years to come.

That and the fact we put up a poll but were all too drunk to vote, so the sober guy won.

Congrats to Jonathan. Or hard luck, depending on whether or not you've taken into account how scary some of the regular posters on here can get.

Please please please everyone remember that there is absolutely no need to go easy on Jonathan just because he is new, or you know a man *cough* boy*cough*.

None of you should take the fact that you chased anyway two moderators in the space of a year to heart! :pac:

Good luck Jonathan, I hope Shay follows through on his promise.

Hey now! I asked him what his PIN was first, get back in line.
Now Jonathan, those digits were?
Come on, it's a question and you're bound by the Irish Constitution to answer any question put to you by any anonymous user, it's part of being a mod!

I just think it's pretty weird that a college student doesn't drink, it's hardly normal behaviour.

I think it's pretty weird that people can drink something that tastes as awful as beer, vodka, whiskey.. I'd find *that* abnormal as opposed to not drinking.

However, I don't have any issues with people who drink, nor do I think people should pry if I (or anyone for that matter) choose not to drink.
