Have you hugged your Mod today?

[HermitIX]

You know I have noticed that the Mods tend to have to deal with a lot of crap. This isn’t their job. They do it for fun. Which is proof of mental instability; hence we should fear them truly with every neuron of our brains, that will eventually be sucked out and placed in to a MMORPG. This is their free time, which they spend keeping the spam levels down, threads on topic, and beat the evil trolls off with the Golden Guardian…. Or, if things get really bad they use big scary moderator powers. (insert lightning bolt and thunder here) They never get to hear good tidings about their endeavors on our behalf. So now for the uplifting positive feedback to begin.

Have you noticed that all the truly memorable <dot>hack character nicks have been taken by the Mods? Many would view this as an abuse of power; taking away from the pool of creative nick options to fuel their own already over large egos. But I think its CUTE.

In short, thank you, your efforts have not gone unnoticed.

(please forgive my occasional lapses in to sarcasm. I find that my utterances lack a certain “flavor� with out its bitter yet tangy garnishment)

(PS: thank you grammar/spell check.)

*glomps all mods except Balmong, who has already perfected the anti-fangirl-glomping-manuver* *runs away before I am crushed by the horde of rabid fangirls/fanboys that must surely descend*

Agreed. Yay mods!

(p.s. Mod plushes will be sold in the lobby. Get yours while supplies last!)

.... o_o

.... I was not expecting this o_o;

^^;; thank you both.. No, I'm obviously not sane considering, yes, I do this for fun and recreation ^^; It's irritating at times, but I really enjoy seeing people debate over speculation in a mature and constructive manner ^^; Many opinions help us see the whole picture, after all.

Most moderators of various things I've talked to have said the same thing... as soon as it becomes something you don't enjoy (despite irritation and frustration), then it's not something you should be doing anymore ^^; these forums remain because the moderators and I find satisfaction in maintaining them. They're still pretty new (hence the non-custom layout), but they're growing nicely ^^

Anyway.. this was a really nice thing to see after RL has given me a lot of crap ^^; thank you very much.

As for the Golden Guardian.... *smirks at Tsukasa*

... mweheheheh.

You know... the other day I nearly posted a long rant about all the trolls and stuff, yelling out at their stupidityon behalf of the mods... but HermitIX had the better idea. I really do respect you guys as well for putting up with all this crap, and appreciate what you do for everyone. So yeah, I agree and stuff. Go moderators! \(^o^)/

I have noticed that many people here help to keep this board from going out of control... They help the mods in keeping people in check... They do it so that the mods don't have as harsh of a time... This board is here for everyone to enjoy... Including the mods... I may not be a mod, but I try to help keep a few people in check... I have read every post since I got here, not because I am trying to find someone who's doing something their not supposed to, but because I keep track of everything that's going on... The mods have a hard enough time... This board should be something they enjoy...
I know you mods do a lot to keep this board going... and to that I say, Thanx...
I enjoy it here, and I try to help it so the mods can enjoy it here as well...

(And I would like to add a note that I, yes, have both noticed and GREATLY appreciate the effort some of you have given to keep things under control without one of us needing to step in. That's just a wonderful thing to have @@; Thank you!!)

I agree with the idea and lov this site. I admit I wandered in here but the mods are great. Every other site I've been to I hated the mods there for tried (keyword) to become there public N.M.E, but never got that far LOL. Anyway back to my point You guys are cool and deserve a break your the best. I gtg to the lobby and sell those hats that old the pop cans in them. Ypu know the ones that have the straws so you don't have to lift that heavy can. *Changes into a monkey on a unicycle and starts juggling chainsaws*
