Roger_Scotty Promoted

roger_scotty · Apr 19, 2002

Frantz, I'll certainly share what I know. No, I didn't apply for the position. What happened is that right after we moved the club over here I got an email from Muhammad saying that he planned to appoint me as "moderator" just as soon as he got the new code written - and asking if that was OK with me. I said I'd be honored, then promptly forgot about it and figured that he had too. So I honestly don't know why.... and still don't have the slightest idea what a moderator moderates. Hopefully I'm not supposed to moderate the length of my replies, because that sure won't work!
But your idea of being a consumption moderator has real appeal. The way I see it working is that for every liquified grain product that you imbibe you also hand one to me and I'll sort of "guard" them for you.....moderately well, anyway.

Roger, your moderation plan on liquid grain product works for me, especially since I've heard you played Center, Guard and Tackle on your high school football team.
Only one little problem I see with the plan, you're in Colorado and I'm in New York. That's gonna make the handoff a bit difficult.
If they ever plan on moderating the length of either of our replys, there will be serious problems.

Scotty,
I noticed that Muhammad sometimes removes bad language, eliminates useless arguments or locks them when more than enough has been said and moves posts to their proper place when they are mis-posted. Seems like he generally tries to keep things organized and civil.

Send a message to Muhammad and ask for his moderator's guidelines. I know there is a special set of instructions...

Muhammad · Apr 20, 2002

Roger,

I sent you a PM with the information/document... did you receive it? /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif I'll just send it again...

roger_scotty · Apr 20, 2002

Best send it again. Either lost in cyberspace or I may have been too quick on the delete button.

Er.....Does this mean that I have more homework to do?

Roger_(now realizing that I signed up for "almost enough" classes this Spring...and old enough to know better)_ Scotty

Could someone refresh my memory, I never heard of a moderation plan including liquid grain products. In past posts I seem to remember something about a front loader full of twinkies as some sort of compensation.

Naw, you're confusing the bucket full of twinkies with the big discussion over wether it would be better to use a PTO hydraulic pump, or a PTO sprayer pump to moderate elbow damage from heavy drinking, by eliminating tha heavy lifting. Then, there was another discussion about switching to light beer to determine if that would moderate elbow damage from the lifting involved in heavy drinking.
As I recollect, the whole thing was referred to a study group of volunteers, and we haven't heard back from any of them as of yet.
You might have gotten confused around the time somebody had that beer barrel fall on top of them from the loader bucket during one of the study sessions, but I think that was a Kubota.
