    Firstly, Sarky and Tar are stepping down.
    All hail and praise them for their tireless, thankless work.

    Do you, the current users of this Forum want to keep it going?

    If so, do you want to take on the Modship* and turn this place around?



    *Disclaimer*

    Just because you volunteer, doesn't mean we will pick you.

    Just because I asked for volunteers, doesn't mean we'll pick any of you.

    I'm just shaking the apple tree to see what falls out.


    What we look for in a Mod:

    Cop on.
    At least half a functioning brain.
    Cop on.
    A calm and cool attitude in the face of idiot argumentative users.
    Cop on.

    Never thought I'd to see this place go :(
    Gonna be sad if it closes.

    Fields

    Me and you both Chuck. 5 years ago this place was a haven for the mentally ill. (as in 'dat **** is ill mah nigga'). I didn't even mind our playground being the dumping ground for after hours. It was fun.

    5 years ago...indeed it was a mad place back then Jimmy.

    Are people that worried about postcountses and thankses?
    Is that why they stay away?

    Do they even know we're over here? In the corner? Waiting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    Sorry I would have got here sooner but I was rescuing a family of drowning ducks!

    Thank you Sarky and Tar, I'll take it from here :D

    Ducks can fly around the world in 128 minutes and can speak 14 languages, but if you feed them after midnight they turn into polar bears, and if they get wet it quadruples their IQ.

    People know we're here. Most of them don't care. The rest are too racist to fraternize with us.

    Deja vous.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,346 ✭✭✭King George VI


    Deja vous.....

    The name of my fourth book.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    Great name it was too, considering the content was identical to the second book. You really came into your own on the third book though. I am not ashamed to admit that I cried. Big fat tears, rolling down my face so fast that gnarly dudes kept trying to surf them. You got me right in the feels man, right in the feels. And if you know how that feels, you'll know what I mean. That was your favourite pair of curtains, and those moths showed you no respect. Now you're stuck with your 2nd favourite pair, and a pack of fat free-loading moths.

    Acid can do that to a man. Be careful.

    They cannot shut us down, surly this is the most profitable section of boards, I make 90% to my black market sales of happy juice medication, technically banned by its creator, and receiving the highest ratings in crime and investigations monthly. We'll I guess it is back to managing a hedge fund with that unscrupulous parrot.

    I know it's not a very busy forum but I think it still deserves a chance.

    People just lost their way maybe, a map could help? And a weekly outing in conjunction with the Widows society.

    Do you believe you have the cop on required?

    Can you show me some sort of medical certification proving that at least one, or more, of your brain cells are functioning?

    On a calmness scale of one to ten, where do you see yourself in the face of a complete tinternet knobjob?

    A nest mod should be someone who really embodies the ethos of the forum in all 5 dimensions.

    An election campaign and accompanying reality tv show would help with the decision.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 833 ✭✭✭southcentralts


    Just back from my emergency lobotomy, now I have a half functioning brain, did not have the cop on to get someone else to perform the op though...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    I've got cop on. I have so much cop on I even put some on a cake

    I hate to break it to you Teddy, but the leader was like the cake.

    It was a lie. :(

    I don't think a more succinct argument can be put forward.

    DamoElDiablo for the new Leader!

    The leader is a cake??? You tell me this after I spent €5.2 million euro on a golden idol in the shape of a rock bun :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,459 ✭✭✭Chucken


    Money well spent. Rock Buns are the new currency. It will be worth 7c or 9c soon.

    Money in the bank!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,551 ✭✭✭Rubecula


    no cake in the bank?

    Yes. I used to be a cop. I know what a troll wants and what a troll deserves. What they want is to rustle jimmies. What they deserve is to have theirs rustled in return, then banned. Then let back in immediately. Only to be banned after their first post.

    I don't have a medical cert but I do have a cert in the art of baking and culinary skills. That might do, I guess.

    On a scale of one to ten, I'd say one. Our nest is gold. I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some greasy little slope troll get the better of it.

    That cake tasted like cabbage. And it didn't much look like a cake, looked kinda like lettuce. And the icing was all salty.

    The smell of pod noodle in this thread is time consuming. It's 4 o'clock for Pete's sake.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 833 ✭✭✭southcentralts


    I thought Pete gave up the saki, it was turning him Japanese.

    In other news big rally tomorrow to save the nest, moving east to west along the sea of tranquillity. Bring a coat it will be pretty cold, and a few hang sambo's.
