if i were ever named a mod

blueedwards · Jun 14, 2006

i wonder how soon it would be before people started hating me. my guess is about a week.

KeithRichard · Jun 14, 2006

What makes you think we don't already? :youmad:

blueedwards · Jun 14, 2006

i knew that was coming. i'm sure i have a few haters out there already but, if i ever was employed as a mod here...i bet that number would increase exponentially.

People dont hate the mods per say but view them as one would law enforcement. Some get justice, some dont but all are disastified with how things are done since its not done there way.

Your not a mod???

Probably about the time you sell your soul and hype a know shit book would be my guess.

(I think you would make a great mod though)

Some would argue that mods are NOT employees.

Do you really think the mods are hated?

It almost seems posters like to pile on the mods whenever they can. The us against them is gay as hell, if your so miserable posting at a site fricking leave.

Not to mention the mods have all spent a ton of time trying to make this place better long before they were ever paid, and the roll of quarters most mods started out making wasn't going to make a difference in anyones life.

yes.

every one of them is hated (by some posters) to varying degrees...except dante. no one ever says anything bad about him.

Blue how would you rank the hatred from top to bottom?

This should be interesting :103631605

I have much respect for most of the mods here. Some cant handle the responsiblity. Some change, much for the worse.

Fish, Dante, Oldmanted and even J-man do their job, but more importantly continue to be themselves. J-man every now and then pushes the envelope there. Kojack changed completely. Sport Savant was much better as a poster in my opinion.

My favorite has to be fish. He walks a tight line, stays politically correct, and offers much value in his posts in the way of gambling etc.

Overall, I believe the mods here do a great job. They are what makes this site the best.

Funny thing is the alltime "hyping a shit book" happened on this very forum before any of the current mods were here..AKA betpanam

Thats a pretty fair assessment...I don't feel the mods should change as posters, I know some have and some tone it down, we're all different.
