You could be the Charm moderator. Or maybe the Strange 😃 Fenris ---

Thanks- I guess I once knew that. Or heard it channel flipping. Was that the show where Alan Alda discovered the Atom Bomb alive and living under a stadium? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by HannibaIV \* > owever, now that you have volunteered as bitter, and Alphagene and Coldfire and Arnold all agree, that’s among yourselves to analyze. Alphagene, Coldfire and myself agreeing? That’ll be the day. For Your Information the three of us are currently involved in a bloody power struggle behind the scenes for the title of “Bitter Moderator” (I will be glad to relinquish the umami moderator title for this more honourable one). I believe I have the upper hand but only so long as I don’t turn my back on them. > [@](#): > > I was just trying to say Arnold should forget Righteous, since bringing that up all the time made him sound harsh, and he is usually so funloving. Who’s Righteous? 😕 ---

BITTER? Arnold, you wouldn’t know bitter if it jumped on your head and started singing “Bitterness is here again!”. That title is mine, hands down. Alphagene is too young to be truly bitter, anyway. ---

Okay, I got moderator applications available now. If you would like one, drop me an email, please. If you requested one earlier I may have lost your original email, so I ask you to try again. Eventually we’ll just post this somewhere and you can pull it down as needed. . . maybe add it to the updated FAQ. I appreciate your patience. your humble TubaDiva Adminstrator ---

I’m older, and I’ve had more time to work on it. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/moderating/43602.md?page=2)
