I’ve seen UncleBeer be just rude myself, when I thought it wasn’t called for… power trip perhaps? 🙂 aha… come here and stand in front of me why dont you. ---

For the record: I think closing a thread, then re-opening it so he can put his two cents in is unprofessional. (If one can be “unprofessional” in an unpaid position, lol.) ---

Poor Fnord; that ass-chewing really was unfortunate because you were set up–all in fun, but it wasn’t really your fault. (Background explanation: when Fnord introduced himself, a bunch of regs did the usual tongue-in-cheek initiation things, including smilies to annoy Chief Scott. It was the usual joking around stuff, but Fnord was too new to know that.) Just as an observation, I doubt anyone could depend on gentleness from our female mods. They don’t inspire awe by being wimps. Veb ---

Actually Veb, I kinda knew that Chiefie didn’t like em, but still I was new, and didnt know any better. Since then I have yet to use a smiley. Not out of fear of a nuclear attack, but the hassle of re-planting my garden, and the fallout would be a bitch too. ---

Sorry, Fnord, never meant to take your name in vain or misrepresnt the case. Figured you’d probably lurked beforehand, but we sure egged you on in the Smiley Attack. If you actually participated in the other activities–goat molestation, S&D excesses, binge drinking, etc.–you have more than mere nuclear fallout and garden replanting ahead of you. ::discreet koff:: The goat had been around the pen a few times before, y’know?

But take it from me, it is really only a spectator sport. So much fun to watch drunken frat pledges try and get in. I got in only because I refused. ---

It seems to me from reading some of these posts that some of you have a case of Stockholm Syndrome! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/are-you-moderator-whipped/31877.md?page=1)
