    What would it be?

    Personally I'd love to take over as mod here. It looks like mighty craic to be fair. I'd love to be able to lock stupid threads, a bit like this one really:p

    Up until you have to get your bits out it sounds like good craic but then again its all for a good cause.

    Sooooooooooo? Whats it to be?

    You need to be a subscriber.

    You need to be a subscriber.

    So in future if i see subscriber on someone's profile, i'll know.... Dirty Bugger.

    The Mustard Forum.

    I'd definitely be a prison mod. Gordon and g'em are hilarious in their responses sometimes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,973 ✭✭✭SafeSurfer


    I would hate to be a mod. It is a fate like being elected head girl or head boy. You once were cool, but now you are just a part of the establishment. :D

    The Bird Watching forum

    Recycle Bin mod.

    That's the job for me.
    All the threads that people start but don't post for whatever reason.
    All those posts that get typed but the poster chickens out.

    Into the boards.ie recycling bin they all go. All those secrets and mistakes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,741 ✭✭✭bigron2109

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    I've been a mod on many a forum and a gaming mod having to deal with 13 year olds and hackers is just a pain in the ash. Don't think i would like to be a mod here though. When i look at boards i see apple. Truly is a love/hate sitchiation

    there on teh favourites/forum list here,wish they allowed thanks in the prison board.
    its funny when people always use being quite new as an excuse for ignoring the rules,and the users that will beg for an unbanning when they have been permenently banned-when told theyre not going to be unbanned they act like they have taken it very easily afterall- only because they were in the middle of setting another account up,they must think people cant see through that BS,and also-those that blame the 'brother' or 'housemate' for logging into their account and trolling,or sockpuppeting on one IP- in that situation gordon often says to get those users to come on and chat with him as well,itd be a lot easier to find them out on the likes of tinychat-ask them both to log on a tinychat chatroom and get on camera.:pac:

    The power would go to my head and i'd use it to punish those to made fun of me.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,689 ✭✭✭Tombi!


    Maybe the prison forum. I think that's really the only one I could do. Since the last time I was a mod on another site was... about 5 years ago? And then it was just a gaming site. At least that forum is straight forward.

    And now I don't keep up with games much, at all. Actually, I might get away with the video game ones. So long as it's not a necessity to know every little detail I could have maybe done retro consoles or whatever it is.

    Soccer of course ;)

    Bit off topic but earlier I was completely banned from viewing it. You know that (you cannot view blah blah blah) message? Did you guys change it recently?

    Cool Vids & Pics & Links (which I do mod)

    Sure, editing out reposts and quoted pics can be a hassle, but if someone posts a NSFW pic and a mod edits it, I get to check the edit history and see the pic.

    Some of you people are disgusting...

    The Ladies Lounge, so I could moderate their pillow fights and stuff

    But can you not just stick a nice warning at the thread saying "any messing about and you get banned".

    Then ban about 50 or 60 of them? :pac:

    Only as a reader though. I'd say being in charge of prison is unimaginably tedious.

    What is aardvark?

    The first forum on the list. It's to catch spammers and bots out.

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=1505


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭RidleyRider


    I get that but what does aardvark mean? Its confusing :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,376 ✭✭✭Anyone


    The Spurs Supporters forum. I'd ban them all and tell them to stop being afraid to mix with other football fans.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭Ando's Saggy Bottom


    I'd moderate the moderaters' forum and ban them all and then sit back and watch the lunatics take over the asylum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,689 ✭✭✭Tombi!

    Well, something has to come as the first forum. So aardvark works.

    "HI YOU BUY CHEAP SHOES?! COME HERE! WANT PORN? COME HERE!"

    Legend says, the deleted post section (that mods can see) is filled with those kinds of riches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 337 ✭✭Jacks Smirking Revenge


    Clearasil & Hormones. Failing that, the prison forum.

    They should have a Brutally Honest Answers forum
