Ask the Mod

Remember that time in Jamaica. Well, I suppose you wouldn’t.

h ttp://www.fluffernutters.com/ <----- may be NSFW at some workplaces.

Around here that might have multiple meanings.

Oh, you mean the Drawer of Sock Souls? We don’t talk about that in public.

Eight fluffernutters at one sitting washed down with three eight-ounce glasses of Nestles Strawberry Quik when I was a teenager. To this day, people in my home town still call me “Fluffer”.

What?

Ah, it’s unfortunate that even unconfirmed names that are banned get taken. Though I guess it’s not that big a deal. Besides, joining up with Purchase Generic V1agra would be even better in some ways, wouldn’t it?

It would. The verissimilitude, it burns!

…And you know, Czarcasm, that we’re all going to call you Fluffers from now on. Even though you may have the best handle on the whole board.

Hey now, what about the rest of us feeling offended that mods are officially sanctioning “the best handle on the board?” I’m just gonna have to change my name to BellRungBookShut-CASM!!

Then I’ll go eat a jar of peanut butter and cry in front of my mirror. Damn you, mods!

Hey now, I definitely mentioned you the last time we had a Best Handle thread. Any further discussions of my views on who has the best username belong in the Pit. :stuck_out_tongue:

How does the SDMB application form differ from the Al Queda application form?

Box #34 says "are you proficient in virtual assassination of the enemy(read-trolls).

While we might wish we had live ammo, we’ll just make do.

More questions about Cecil, fewer about The Great Satan. Other than that, substitute The Chicago Reader for Al-Quran and you’re good to go.

So you don’t have to be willing to die for Cecil?

Excellent idea for a thread - I have some questions.

  1. Were the other mods jealous that you thought of doing this thread, Marley?

  2. Do all y’all really treat every poster the same, whether they’ve been here one day or nine years, with one post or 20,000?

  3. Are we within millimeters of having threads on the Democratic candidacy locked and disappeared automatically? Can we be?

  4. How do you stand on blaming Canada?

Kill, maybe; die, no.

I assume they’re too jealous to mention it.

Everybody’s subject to the same rules. But on a message board, you are your body of posts. We make an effort to put the most favorable interpretations on people’s posts, but that’s easier to do for longer-term members.

It’s very tempting. :stuck_out_tongue: Imagine how the GD and Pit mods feel!

For the Democratic candidacy? I don’t really hold Canada responsible for that.
By the way, Dex suggests that, of course, Ed Zotti has the most experience dealing with Cecil. Dex figures he’s in second place. He had an answer for the porn question to, but it’s too sick to print here.

Something too sick for the Dope - don’t tease us like that, dude!

I’ve just done a check, and there are eighteen mods. Is this a normal amount, or does it vary?

How often do mods leave, and how frequently are new ones recruited?

Some mods seem to be generally more active than others. It may be just the forums that I visit most, but I don’t come across Ukulele Ike in my travels, whereas I see you, Marley, quite often. Are some mods more full-time than others?

The official rule for banning a member is that two mods have to agree…but at least one of the two must be an admin. So it can be one mod and one admin, or two admins. Generally, though, most of the mods will agree that the poster in question needs to be banned. The rule is in place so that when someone needs to be banned very quickly, we can do it quickly without having to wait for most of the mod staff to weigh in.

You can always go back and read the pimple threads if you really need to. Or start another one. I’m sure we’ve had new pimple stories since the last thread.

  1. Frankly, Hollywood actresses rarely pose nude on film, it’s pretty uncomfortable and too small. Mostly, they pose nude on couches, beds, throw-rugs, etc.

  2. This is a trick question, but I know the answer: A person can only meet another person once; after that, they already know each other and just get together. But assuming you mean which mod has got together with Cecil most often, then obviously it’s Ed Zotti.

Mmm, pimple threads. Maybe I’ll go look after I’ve finished my breakfast cottage cheese.

They are able to send a real mug via teh intrawebs forums?
