Additional Board Moderators!
« Thread Started Yesterday at 2:10pm »		[Quote]
All 'Spam Gestapo' moderators are now in the 'Global Moderator' group. (DonIV, Rocky, PhilO)

And our newest Global Mod is MT Phono!

Welcome to the New World Board Order.

Maybe I should rename the Global Moderator group as the Phono Illuminati? ;D

Might I submit that the term: "Phono Illuminati" is somewhat of an oxymoron. "Phono" is good; while "Illuminati" is grossly evil.

LOL!

I've always had a sort of neutral view of the term 'Illuminati' but it would imply that we would be an evil phonograph and record collecting conspiracy. ;D

Do Global Moderators get to vote their own salaries? Also, can Global Moderators be bought off?

Yes and yes, but they need to pay their own salaries by raising everyone's taxes. Oh, wait, that's Congressmen and Senators, what was I thinking.

They can still be bought off, though at about half the price it would take to buy off an Admin. ;)

Hey!

I volunteered to help, not join the "Gestapo"! Though I do appreciate the Phono Illuminati/Global Moderator title :)

My first act will be to ban everybody with a username that starts with the letter "A". How do you like them apples, Steve? Of course a Standard under glass sent my way could certainly help the situation!

Regards,
Scott

I think I can explain it to you. It's all becoming very clear to me.
I am the Lemon Merchant and you are the Keeper of The Cheese and he knows it and that's why they are going to kill us! ;)

Ban everybody with a user name that starts with an A? For a person who didn't join the Gestapo, you sure know Gestapo tactics! I did hear that there is a phono-terrorist training camp near a town called Eureka in Montana. Scott, don't you live near Eureka????? Hmmm, the pieces are all starting to fit!

Dan, what does being a global moderator entail? I note that I no longer have the capability of deleting spam. Rocky

Last I heard, Dan was taken to a re-education camp with Joe the Plumber and Joe Lieberman. They are probably about done tweaking Dan's set screw by now, so he should be back soon.

Right, me either. Dan, I feel honored with my new title and everything, but basically I can't do anything but post like everyone else. What gives?

That's the rumor (that I live in/near Eureka). Who is your friend? We have a number of recent refugees from Florida - several of whom we are friends with. Lots of refugees from NC, TN and TX too. What's going on in the south that is driving them north? Isn't that the wrong direction?

I think the term "Global Moderator" refers to the soldiers in the new army being recruited, whose task it is to intervene into fierce political arguments and slap both sides around the face with a wet fish.

At least I think that's what I read somewhere, somehow on a deleted post on deleted thread! ;)
