Here's looking at you, Skipmagic

I THINK that I shall never see
A mod so lovely or so twee.

A twee whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth’s flowing breast;

A twee that works as Mod all day,
And lifts his twee-y arms to pray;

A twee that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in his hair;

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.

Mods are made by fools like D,
But only Skip could be so twee.

It was my thread, and even I liked the way he closed it. Very polite. I appreciate the courtesy. :slight_smile:

Hey, you over there! Yeah, you’ve got a little something…yeah yeah…right there…on…your…
nose.

:smiley:

I do have a question, since this thread is already open, though (I know it’s not the appropriate forum, but I don’t want to start an entire thread about it) -

How would I, for future reference, go about asking mods for permission for something?

And if I change the idea a little, and instead make a Web site where the recipes are displayed, with a form that people can use to submit recipes (with a disclaimer saying that it may eventually be included in a published work, credit given), and post a link here, maybe in my signature - is that acceptable? Or no go? Because I really, really want input from SMDB members, who are, as a whole, pretty innovative.

E-mail one of the staff who has “Administrator” for a title, (most folks tend to bug TubaDiva first), explaining your request.

If the request is a slam-dunk “yes” or “no,” (meaning it is similar to the last 200 requests that got that answer), the Admin will respond immediately with the answer. If it is a bit different than other requests, your request will be passed around the staff for comments and a (sort of) vote, so it may take a day or two longer.

Be sure to include “SDMB” in the e-mail heading and mention your SDMB username if it is different than your e-mail address.

It’s best to send us an e-mail explaining exactly what you want to do and, if you’re using a third-party web site, to include a link. The staff will discuss whether it’s permissible or not, and then we’ll respond letting you know the decision. (If it’s a “no”, we’ll explain our reasoning why.)

When you send an e-mail, be sure to send it to more than one staff member (to increase the chance your e-mail will be seen right away, or at all if someone’s on vacation), and to include “SDMB” in the subject line (which will help us separate spam from legitimate e-mails).

Dunno. I’ll throw it to the circle to see what everyone thinks.

Not with an attitude like that you won’t. You have to believe.

Fuck you and your wife.

K…will that get it into the pit count?

:wink:

Dunno. Was that an insult or an invitation?

I guess that depends on what kind of a whacky couple they are!

Would it help if I started a pit thread calling you a hypocritical pussy?

That’s what the Mets fans kept saying.

Didn’t work for them either.

See, now you and Kalhoun are just trying to cheer me up.

SkipMagic and tomndebb - thank you, although you’re being awfully helpful for mods. :wink: Kidding, I do appreciate it tons. Despite having entirely too many posts for having been here less than six months, I am still a noob.

Look stop being nice to them, they can’t handle it. Their brains will explode.

tom is a hypocritcal pussy, and skip is a twee nazi.
