How did you become a mod?

it came out with feggy, and as there is no feggy we chose something similar.

I'm a mod, but not here. Does that qualify me? Too late I've already posted :D
 
Where did the post go before mine? I was going to do a 404 joke
 
How did i become a mod... oh yeah I whined alot. Back in the day that would make you a mod because they would just want you to shut up. Now a days they would just ban ya. Guess I was in the right place at the right time. :D

No not really, I just thought my browser had gone a bit funny as I couldn't quote your post.

Don't the mods have their own forum.
 
yup. I might even have a special one that only I can see, but I am not that bored.

Moderator’s, kind of like Judge Jury and Executioner all in one. What sort of person lends himself or herself to this sort of unpaid occupation? Maybe a politician/power and control freak or a quest for some sort or recognition or the wish to help under privileged computer users whilst imposing a set of rules and flouting superior knowledge, who knows, but does it matter in the great scheme of things computerish? I doubt it. The main point is that a forum exists for an exchange of ideas/knowledge, ok it has to have certain rules and regulations but that’s how we live our lives in a democracy and all democracy’s have rules the older the more complex there rules are.

Exchange of knowledge is the important factor here and the right to so do without let or hindrance, which to me is what mods maintain. They allow you the freedom to perpetuate you views or ask questions in an ordered way without being harangued for either a lack of knowledge of for a set of beliefs you may (mistakenly) hold. In the end it’s about learning/knowledge and how to perpetuate it for the good of the community (in this case the entire planet). God save the King or was it the band Queen, who cares?

I do.

Don’t ask what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country:

I’m never bored only between the states of sleep and awake in various degrees. At the moment I’m more asleep then awake or so I’m told.

:) :cool:

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
