Volunteers for Punk Mod...

DeVore · 17-02-2005 2:09pm #1

I know a punk moderator is very "unpunk" and makes as much sense as sociopathic group therapy but their job is to keep the place ticking over and deal with the morons.

Anyone up for the job please reply below.

DeV.

I have to... They just need to be led in the right direction... (See below)

All that anger... The world is sometimes a crazy place...

I am MAN · 17-02-2005 2:33pm

I will volunteer...im online about 18 hours a day due to work and if it means keeping people like veryslowey at bay then HELL YEAH

dregin · 17-02-2005 3:03pm

I'd like the job. I mod the forum on www.berkeley.tv.

NotMe · 17-02-2005 3:07pm

Preferably someone who actually likes punk music so I vote against Papa Smut.

Matthewthebig · 17-02-2005 4:00pm

I nominate me or NotMe! lol

We both know the score and are hip happening kids. Also he created my sexy sig, so if i don't get it. He should!!

Vote Matthew!

I apologise NotMe, someday I will join in one of your discussions. I was only taking the oui by putting my name forward.
I know an awful lot about punk. My parents were punks and I have a fascinating record collection. Original Pete and the Test Tube Babies, Siouxsie, Discharge, even the Rezillos are there! I just can't see the relevance when you have bands like SUM41, Blink182, Even green day being called punk. It certainly aint punk anymore.

Ok I was just going by your previous posts. I got the impression you weren't a punk fan. But if you like P&TTTB then you're cool. :cool:

I nominate Matthewthebig

bombidol · 17-02-2005 4:22pm

ill throw my name in the hat too.

honru · 17-02-2005 6:32pm

I'd be up for it.

steveland? · 18-02-2005 11:49am

/me throws name in hat

Although I'm not sure I'm tolerant enough of... ya know... opinions

It wasn't me! · 18-02-2005 12:32pm

I'd do it.

oq4v3ht0u76kf2 · 18-02-2005 12:41pm

I'd be up for it... I love punk and everything to do with it - not just the music but the culture too.

ferdi · 18-02-2005 7:15pm

i vote for dregin (he is in a punk band, or so i'm told)

Lucutus · 19-02-2005 1:24am

jimeatsmenu & bombidol to rule with an iron fist, imo.

Matthewthebig · 19-02-2005 1:25am

Finally he turns up. lol

dregin · 19-02-2005 1:32am

Jim hasn't actually put his name in.

Drum boy · 19-02-2005 11:20am

So how we decide???

goin'_to_the_PS · 19-02-2005 11:30am

a poll would be fair

dregin · 19-02-2005 2:03pm

Not necessarily. People could just go and get people to register or register multiple accounts themselves to further their own cause. And as far as finding a good moderator, it's probably better to gauge a persons skills by their past behaviour than on a popularity contest.

Yes I agree a poll would be just stupid.

That's a bit over the top. Being a mod isn't that great is it?

dregin · 19-02-2005 3:28pm

Probably, but I'm sure it's been done before.

NotMe · 19-02-2005 3:30pm

What about a public poll and only people with say over 100 posts can vote. Nah, I'm sure DeVore will just pick someone.

Thanks for stating the obvious

It wasn't me! · 19-02-2005 5:28pm

Does DeV really have the time to go dredging through people's post histories though to pick the most suitable person? A poll would be the easiest option but it couldn't be trusted really.

Amz · 20-02-2005 12:25am

Dregin, Jimeatsmenu or bombidol would get my vote.

Jim · 20-02-2005 7:37pm

I'll do it.

NotMe · 23-02-2005 9:34pm

We need these new mods now to get rid of threads about RATM tribute bands and the like.

Caoimhe · 23-02-2005 11:03pm

I vote Matthew (but he's the only one I know...)

Adam · 23-02-2005 11:39pm

I vote me, and i vote me is a sensible vote. Vote me.

Ro: maaan! · 24-02-2005 1:05am

Don't think voting is going to have much of an effect, but seems to be the trend. This being a punk forum I'll follow it. My vote goes to any or all of these four... or five

Jimeatsmenu
Dregin
Ferdi
NotMe
or bombidol

lacuna · 24-02-2005 2:00pm

Not that I mind too much, but Jim would get my vote if it came to it.

Ro: maaan! · 24-02-2005 6:52pm

Heh... You're in for it now Jimmy.

po0k · 25-02-2005 2:28am

It's just a caretaking job.

Dregin, Jim, Bombidol and ferdi are the few names I know.

Perhaps preference to one who hasn't a board to mod already? Spread the workload around a bit etc.

Civilian_Target · 25-02-2005 3:22pm

I agree with Syxpak - it should be someone who doesn't already have a board to mod, and ideally a paid up user too - so that we know they won't disappear.

Heh heh I think that rules out everyone who's posted so far.

If they've been posting consistently for the couple of years they're hardly likely to disappear and anyway they can be easily replaced.

Amz · 25-02-2005 8:38pm

Dregin for punk mod!

(How could you say no to that face?)

Matthewthebig · 25-02-2005 9:30pm

my eyes!

azezil · 25-02-2005 9:34pm

wooo what's this!! *poke poke*

I vote for I am MAN... he has a lovely bum

mmmm marks bum

Amz · 25-02-2005 9:39pm

az ... Go watch Presilla Queen of the Desert or something.

Oh Jesus. I knew it was only a matter of time before those pictures came back to haunt me. I hadn't been in favour of this Amz -V- Zyox rugby match, but I'm afraid it will be taking place in the very near future

Bernard

Amz · 25-02-2005 11:59pm

I purposely walked in the door at the front and up to the bar that way so he would see me and have the chance to rugby tackle me.

Obviously he chickened out ... Although that was to be expected. Saved myself a pint so I'm happy.

It wasn't me! · 26-02-2005 10:57am

So... is anyone actually going to pick a punk mod?

Dev will when he gets around to it.

ferdi · 26-02-2005 2:23pm

DREGIN FOR PUNK MOD!!!!!!!!!!

Ro: maaan! · 26-02-2005 3:48pm

The picture for mod!

dregin · 19-03-2005 10:47pm
