Regarding the upcoming mod elections to be held in june, i will state here and now that if you are one of my troublemakers - and you know who you are because you've either been banned or warned repeatedly- don't even bother submitting your name. You will not be considered. additionally, any of the former msn mods who are mods here right now are going to be allowed to stay if they so choose, without having to be re-elected, simply because i value their experience. So if all the current mods want to stay, then we are going to just have more mods?

But a big NO for billsonboard and desiloooooo for obvious reasons I recommend that Deminmaine and Safeharbor be the two mods here for the P&M Message Board and TraelinO if he returns from his hiatus...IMHO Ma'am.. But I doubt that Safeharbor wants the aggravation that goes along with being a moderator since Cedaredge just about drove the poor man crazy on the P&M MSN Message Boards..

P_I, the only 2 msn mods that are mods here are dem and diver.. so, assuming that they want to continue on, that will mean we need to bring in 2-3 new ones. and those people will be voted for, as they were before. I do plan to have a straight "vote for your 2 (or 3) favorites" type thing, and go from there.
PBP, while i would LOVE to be able to have 'light moderation', there are entirely too many people that like to bully, insult and generally be assclowns to others to be able to do that.

I did hear from Diverdown34 a few weeks ago and said he had some family issues to deal with and would not be around much at all...

Dem is actually a pretty good example of that in that when I have seen him get involved, I don't really remember questioning it too much. At the same time, I don't recall ever thinking that he was using his mod position to bully another poster (granted, I have not seen all his post). Edited to give Dem a sex change.

As this board grows, and I believe it will, you're going to need more moderators, anyway. That's just the way it is on this, our internet.

Dem is a guy... not a gal... and i do like his style.. Diver does have some other stuff going on at the moment. Not forgetting Tenn, but he was not an MSN mod.. therefore, my statement doesn't apply to him.

Fixed it in the original post though....sorry Dem.

Edited to give Dem a sex change.Er, thank you.... I think? nothing good ever came out of Boston. While us Maniacs generally agree with that, we do make exceptions for all of "our" sports teams, including the Red Sox, and the New England Patriots. And how in the heck do you leave the Celtics out of that statement? My favorite all time team, until the Bulls made their run in the 90's. Of course, you are a Deminmaine, so they do not have too many pro teams up there, do they?

bill- re modding, i will be asking for people to PM me their interest in June..OK Moonbeam and if I get any inadvertent PMs re modding again I will forward them to you .. But having billsonboard or desiloooooo as Moderators would NOT be a good thing..as I made my case before to you.. hark, hark..shhh, let me listen closely, was my NIC mentioned on the wind ?? Why yes, wait one, let me read the comments , just on second cuppa here, running a bit slow this AM.... Aha, it's going to be election time again, moderators no less, and candidates to be announce...mmmmmm , and I see secret negotiations and pleadings going on behind the scenes, dare tell by those dreaded PM's no less, so unfair. Well I guess some will have to sit down with advisers, look at the cost and funds on hand, seek out those hi rollers with special interests ideas who might want to contribute funds to .. Platform needed, {rarely followed once in office} ... Think a little thought has to be given here, moderator , mmmmmm campaign manager, advisor's, who to consider, lets see theres kr..and P and.... ;D

OK here's the deal I volunteer to be the Moderator Campaign Manager for the following candidates:
1. Mollymouser
2. Deminmaine
3. Safeharbor ( but that may take some convincing)
So a vote for these three outstanding members of this forum and hugely contentious P&M Message Board will help to restore peace and tranquility and you have my solemn pledge to work as hard as possible for their elections in June...
P.I.
And if anyone has a problem with these three outstanding Moderator Candidates for the second half of 2011 pls speak your piece and provide your objections to these fine folks who we should be priviledged to know and share our views with on this board..

But c'mon now Ms Moonbeam you have to be impressed with Mollymouser, Deminmaine and Safeharbor....who could do a better job than those three

The one who sends PM's P.I. are you..as far as your idea of "every menmber here " lets see..ed, burns, palm maybe palm , a few more , I can live with it... As far as others who feel things about you: Your never, ever posting a thread of information, real ideas, dissing so many who do, but never addressing the topic under discussion, , your attempt of humor which are not, your constant posting as if you have to get your two cents in even when posters are involved in a back and forth that has nothing to do with others, and the one time , a good one, the skunk , your milking every bit out of it to the point the humor of it is lost. Your constant, think it's every forth post of , serving in the military, as if you were a battalion all of yourself, where most of us who have also served , we over all, keep the experience private or share with fellows at the right places and gatherings. Your admitted prejudices, no one in their right mind admits to such sicknesses, even in a tongue in cheek way, especially some one who had to serve with so many of different races and cultures and know those sacrifices they made along with one self and the price paid , and then your thin skin, that while you have no problem giving it , in a tongue in cheek way and wondering why some take it personal, yet when given back in the same tongue in cheek way, as my post above about what some might think of your ideas of moderators, which by the way you constantly skirt the line with your insinuations of , which are also getting old, you get all personal and up tight . "How dare some one pick on me and as has been reported by one on high, PM's, Report to Mods seem to follow. If there are others out there, I believe a few P.I. , I believe a few, who feel the same , I would let them speak for themselves .
