I was just coming here to make a topic about it…heh. I was JUST looking at the mods there, what good timing is that? It was just **Czarcasm** one page, then I clicked to another, scrolled to the bottom, and there was another. It was like magic.

Here’s to you **This Year’s Model**. May you be happy in your new job.

Many welcomes, **TYM**. **IMHO** is a blast. However, do _not_ let **Czarcasm** con you into believing you have to buy and wear Moderator Underoos. That’s just his little…quirk.

Veb  
But if you WANT to buy some slightly used Wonder Woman underoos I just happen…never mind.

If the whole Underoos thing is a scam – how do you expect to continue to recruit new mods?

By using showthread with the post number instead of showpost.

Okay, how do you determine the post number? Sorry just trying to learn.

Hover your mouse over the #nn in the upper right of a post. The number following the p= is the post number.
