There, finished. Now whenever a moderator shuts a thread, or moves it or censures somebody they can just use this form to start a pit thread about themselves at the same time. It’ll be a lot more efficient this way, and they can save the offended party the trouble of having to do it themselves. ---

The other cool thing is that if you get pissed off at a mod you can be highly efficient in your rant. For Example, if I had been upset over Colfire’s post, I could simply come here and post like this: (see next post) ---

I like it; it’s pithy, punchy, saves bandwidth, puts rants into neat categories for tidy consumption… This is a truly impressive effort, **Scylla**. Uh, just out of scientific interest, you wouldn’t happen to be on meds still, are you? Snickering madly, Veb ---

Veb, he DID say that Vicodin was his new hero. Hell, that stuff never does anything for ME but give me breathing problems. I want Demerol in an IV, please. ---

I’d like to see someone make an HTML form and cgi script that generates said “mod-bashing post”. Maybe I’ll do it myself. 🙂 ---

I think this is really a good thread. ::tips hat:: Looks like you’ve been working on it a while. Did you have stuff saved up? But now I’ve just gotta ask: Did this quote trigger it, by any chance?

Fonz: No, it was just inspired by the generic nature of whiny antimoderator rants that seemed to occur with ever growing frequency when I first did it. A couple of beers and the aforementioned Vicodin provided the creativity and I rattled the thing off in 20 minutes or so.
