Gust0o Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Some of you may be wondering how six mods could match the giants who previously walked amongst us. The answer is: taking inspiration from Transformers, we retain the ability to transform into one giant moderator, possessing awesome firepower. We had to take this approach once it became apparent that light touch moderating would no longer work - given that Discreet has trademarked the term "light touch" for the forthcoming InnuendoChat. He signed his last e-mail off with [i]"In your endo", [/i]which suggest he's making good progress. Beyond that, I'm very much looking forward to it. This forum has given me a lot, and I enjoy my posting here - and now I get to help out, so it all works perfectly for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MythSte Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Just wanted to say a massive thanks to those of you that have helped to keep the peace in off topic (and everywhere else!) for the last, jesus, must have been 4 years or so! I really miss being able to spend as much time as I used to on here and I almost feel like a stranger amidst the more active posters these days. University, a better half and work have just got the better of me to the point where i'm ashamed to say, I don't even own a bass at this moment in time. Basschat made me thrice the musician I was (and also a third as wealthy, thanks classifieds....) purely through motivation, I've met some great people, had some mind blowing conversations as well as some downright silly ones and just generally enjoyed this place for most of my musical life. Stand strong basschatters and I'll be knocking about here and there once I have things in order. Pvt. MythSte, honerably(ish) discharged from duty.

Happy Jack Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I'm going to create a new User (I'll call him [i][b]Unhappy Jack [/b][/i]... no one will ever guess it's me) and hang around on GuitarChat winding up lead guitarists with questions about oxygen-free cables and why you can't use six fuzz pedals simultaneously.

Billy Apple Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Hi Kiwi, How does Basschat go about appointing new moderators? Do members put themselves forward, or do you approach members privately? Has there been a vote that I've missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Damn, an awful lot more subforums to lurk in and laugh out loud at while I'm supposed to be working. Luckily I'm in my home office most of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
