    Mine was a bad drunken mistake. I still to this day feel like a sad story, as in losing my real true identity :D


    No luck of me getting that teaching job in north Korea, or anywhere close.

    You get tempted to try and figure out who they are, but it's too much memory strain for the mind mush.

    I recall an After Hours mod was removed from their post not too long ago actually. It was actually a bit of a scandal at the time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,882 ✭✭✭Saipanne


    I recall a disastrous Conspiracy Theories mod called Mahatma Coat. One time he banned a dissenting voice for no reason at all, and then later said it was a "joke". He didn't last long, but not sure if he was removed.

    A quick search brings up the dramatic end.

    Not sure about going mad, but a few have taken Des perate action


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 820 ✭✭✭BunkMoreland


    There was a mod who took issue with the fact that discussion of things like illegal music downloading was censored while discussion of illegal drugs was not.

    Within the moderator forum he said he'd go to the papers about boards policy on drugs and was banned by his druggy peers.

    The path of the moderator is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil trolls.
    Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the newbies through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
    And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to break the rules and destroy the peace.
    And you will know my name is Mod when I lay my ban upon thee.

    Be moderate, be moderate.
    Why tell you me of moderation?
    The grief is fine, full, perfect, that I taste,
    And violenteth in a sense as strong
    As that which causeth it: how can I moderate it?

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    LOL.

    el guapo is a sound Mod. Do you remember this one el guapo ? I reside inside your processor of which is very hot indeed ? :D


    That's by far the weirdest thing in this thread.
    Good work.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,436 ✭✭✭c_man


    There was the incident a while back where a certain mod started to lose his marbles. He published a manifesto stating that in order to truly mod boards, the people in the street also needed to be moderated. Packing a high caliber rifle he attempted to put his ravings into practice. Took ten armed gardai to take him down.

    :D I knew that would get your attention.

    Don't you worry about it man, it was just a sprinkling of thought, marinated with some elves and tuborg beer. Don't worry, I am sane. You are safe here.

    Was Mahatma Coat a Mod? He got booted out of Oz by a tosser of a employer who stitched him up, was waiting to go back to Brisbane last i heard, good bloke I reckon, seriously hope he got back.

    The worst mod was a former Mod of the Boxing Forum, was the biggest Troll going about, finally got the boot, but in saying that he came across as decent most of the time, power might have corrupted in the end.

    Yep, he hurt my bollocko.

    I'm sure it was a whoopsadaisy accident

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
