Yet in all seriousness, what the **** was thought of bringing up a mod for an English site who doesn't even know how to speak the language properly? We don't need some cowardly troll & run reflection of the dirty ant hill he grew up in closing threads simply because his understanding of its course is about as smooth as the rusted chain on his community bicyle.

The valiant little "he's ok" faces Mike and Ming have put on for us obviously have worth, but as far as I'm concerned - you guys damn well know you don't need him, either. Regardless of how charmed you might be by the lost little boy who's blatantly trying to act like yourselves - he's still the same old ignorant goof who desperately needs a copy of "Hooked on Phonics"

lol @ Retard

Yes, but now I have to say something as bland as my character and try to pass it off as Mingesque banter (emoticon included).

I don't think it matters to him. He's dogging on Mobius because of that?

I think Mobius is refering to the fact that UR is closer to his time zone than most mods.

ACK!

Why are you offended with UR being a Mod? Does it change your life in any way?

ACK!

...and of course the time zone is an issue. Yet if you didn't already know, our young communist hero was (*as I imagine*) chosen on basis of not having to deal with one of the many Euro buddies certified in douchebaggery. I guess UR's at least comparitively quiet, on that front.

I personally think UR will make a good mod.

There, it hurt a lot, but I said it.

Of course not, did I say it did? It's about accountability - if you don't understand the rather shallow depths of such. You don't appoint Qadafi as head of the UN because (in theory) it is a humanitarian/ non-sociopath organization. You can elect him for it, but if he's appointed - people aren't even affected by the measely little organization are still pissed off.

Likewise, you don't appoint idiots and/or those who have demonstrated a complete lack of tact and/or skill in debate as moderators of the OT. I'm not quite sure of MLeonard's case, but I guess he might have been a bit of a closet exception.

So, basically, he's one upped you at some point so you think he's worthless.

Lack of tact, at times, is a requirement as a mod. And for moderation purposes, why does he need to debate anything?

ACK!

One upped ME? I can't even get the little worm to come out of his hole in defense of his obvious trolls towards others. He's adept at making completely blind and rather inarticulate aggravations towards everyone outside of a "USA = NEO HITLER" sphere; and then dissapearing when those taught in classrooms without a standard "gold or red zealot child" dress code grab him by the throat and ask for further clarification.

That had best shape up if a mediocre job is seen as... well - mediocre? My opinion, folks!

Honestly, even with the time zone requirement - there were tons of able candidates. I don't know why I'm whining now, but hey these character synopsis things are always a bit of fun!

Spiffor - Always a great guy with aggravating views up the wazoo if you so needed to shock the OT population with a "balance" on the American bias. I mean he's French, right? Everyone hates France too. but this guy's a human! There ya go!

Lazarus and the Gimp - Regardless of what you may think of his obsene humor, the guy's always kept his nose clean, his insults up front yet restrained, and his wit on a higher active level of intelligence than that of listless grub. Plus he's a freaking liberal tw4t to say the least, so balance your DREADED YANKEE IMPERIALISM with a bit of style - ok?

Near any of the Israeli's (less of course, Panag) - Something about the Israeli mentaility in our zionist residents has always shown upstanding tactic in forum battle and a maturity beyond that of stupidpants. Siro is some sort of stage 4 downsydrome Utilitarean as well - again for balance (you know I'm just kidding Siro, hugs from the frigid north!)

DanS - Sure he's a yank, but he just screams mod. COOOMMMEE OONNNNN

Or, if we keep up current policies regarding new mods:

Serb - YUeah right maybe your craps dowesnt stink or somethings?
haver a nice we will bury you!

St Leo - Hi guys my Canadian hero is a hackneyed hyper feminist because she roXX0Rs time to go see the MATRIX

Chegitz Guevara - Is a ****ing moron. What else can I say?

Our glorious new moderator is busy explaining to me that nobody needs faster computers, and 90% of people buying computers don't care how fast it is.

Maybe we should start an official "UR quote of the day" thread for some degree of levity and accountability in this horrid situation. I'm sure our precious wouldn't object to that - given all the "someone said a swear word over here" Community threads the little fairy has in the past started.

Holy ****, that reminds me

Remember all of those threads he posted in here on MY behavior specifically? HAHAHAHA I almost forgot about those gems which shalt now be dug up.

"Zylka has a swastika in his avatar"
"Zylka is being mean to the Eastern Hemisphere"
"Teacher gave us homework and Zylka didn't do it"

Oh you frail little worm, I guess that memory seals my open mindedness on this situation.

A few days on the job and he's already using his powers to censor threads which he doesn't like, but don't break the rules.

Well I feel bad laying on the pressure, almost like those little ****ing rats along with Imran who gave Ming a hard time. Yet hey - this is for someone who isn't a cool person, and one who has dedicated about 4 or 5 seperate "I'm telling" type threads in community to myself alone!

I'm reluctant to comment, but that really did look personal. The excuse that this is a gaming forum doesn't fly when you read then next 30 posts about politics, history, books, and (surprisingly enough) computers. In fact, if anyone talks about games they are often redirected to other forums on this site.

I've been quiet about UR being a mod, because I really did want to see how this worked out. I believed that the position would restrain him a bit, and we'd get another mod and a better poster from it. Personally, I was a bit shocked to see him become a mod so shortly after posting a blatantly racist statement justifying the death of civilians in the Japanese thread. Yet, I believe in giving everyone a fair chance. However, if this is representive of his future decisions, then this site is about to get as boring as UR's noncontroversial posts.

However, it is a private site. The owners can make their own decisions. As Ming is aware, I'm not really going to change my posting style much regardless of how many threads are closed or bannings I get or others get. If I'm in the mood to be an ass, I'll be an ass and accept the consequences. However, unfair they may be.
