redstriper Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1344707890' post='1768261'] Well, in a word, yes. [/quote] Really! OK, I'll miss you too then (whoever you are) [quote][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Lovely as a PM, maybe not quite so lovely as an open post. [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] [/font][/color] [/quote] Seems you are right Skank - I've just had a severe reprimand from HQ, threatening me with suspension for insulting the gods. In the interest of clarity and before I go: I was just being honest and I saw no reason to keep it private, but I apologise if my post insulted, upset or hurt anyone. I don't know any mods personally and I've had no interaction with any apart from a couple of times, when I've found them arrogant and sarcastic. I'm sure there are lots of lovely mods too, but I would be lying if I said I'd miss them if they died tomorrow (except my new mod friend of course). There are very few people on this forum (or the entire planet) that I would miss actually and I doubt I'm alone in that. There's maybe a handful of members that I would miss - the ones who make me laugh, the ones I've met in 'real life' and the ones who have helped me in various ways. None of them happen to be mods. This does not mean I wish death on anyone, just that I wouldn't miss them and there is absolutely nothing insulting about that. If honesty gets you banned, then so be it.

redstriper Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I would like to apologise for my previous statement that I wouldn't miss any mods if they died tomorrow. This was insulting and against forum rules. I am also sorry for my multiple rule breaking in previous posts. I fully expect to be banned, if not worse, but at least Gust0o will miss me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Wazoo Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) [center] [i][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive][b] Congrats to the new mods & admins,[/b][/font][/size][/i] And for those who didn't get picked for the task here is my violin concert in Dm Actually the non elected ones should consider themselves lucky to be able to continue to freely roam the pages of BC at their chosen time and convenience, without ever thinking of it as a job or a task. Rest assured when you've got that on the back of your mind as a task, you become less interested and soon enough tedium begins to settle in.[/center] [center]And I know a song about that![/center] Edited August 11, 2012 by Grand Wazoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
