So if the anonymous moderator is John D'Oh, then who's John D'Oh? If he's anonymous, then who's himself?

So I'm guessing there's a way to give a person the moderator capabilities without having the tag "moderator" appear under the name? EDIT- nevermind, I see there is a separate screen name for the anonymous mod. |

OK, I resign. It's bad enough having all these confusing blinken' lights in the new MODERATORS CONSOLE OF POWER, but all the hard questions are killing me. Jgoo, what does the button with a big picture of a nucleur bomb and the words 'DO NOT PUSH' on it do? |

Hmmmm... I think you got it wrong, John ol' boy. The button actually says "DO NOT SHUSH." I think it means laissez-faire moderators are good moderators.

I've informed Jgoo that I only really have one rule. No French words. If there is really no alternative, and you wish to use a word or phrase that is French, it should be spelt phonetically, and have a 'SPOILER - FRENCH' alert at least thirty lines above it, so that those of us who aren't blessed with strong stomachs can prepare ourselves accordingly. .... ... ... ... Lay-say-fare. I wanted to implement the same rules for the Welsh language, but research has shown that there is no known way of writing Welsh phonetically. |

I suspect I am the safest one with 89th. Any move against me would be seen as indicative of a political agenda to his moderating. Besides, 89th is the one I would have suggested when everyone was talking about having one of the top posters as moderator. Over the past month or so, 89th has definitely altered his posting style. I have noticed it if no one else has and I have appreciated it. |

I appreciate that Rick. And you're strategically smart, too: Just how Tony Snow will probably cite CNN and MSNBC far before he cites FoxNews, just to show he's being fair. So you are about as safe as a Republican in Oklahoma.
