Maybe they'll accept me as a mod. Think I have a chance? |

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |

Jon jokingly recommended Quirt and me. Daniel about sh!t a brick. Made three separate posts about how 'wildly inappropriate' I was. It was pretty funny.

Nothing, really, except that some vocal members of WTF seem to think it is mostly the fault of certain TNCR members who post in both places. But naturally the accuser will not name the suspects. |

WTF and TNCR are often discussed on both boards. We are a partition of the same forum, the old coffee room. Many of us visit both since it is the only way to socialize with several good people who only visit one. |

I do think you and quirt would make good moderators, especially if, as I proposed, you had to agree between yourselves on each moderation. |

Yes, but those of us who visit only one forum don't want to be involved and read about WTF matters. Those who do just visit WTF. Keep WTF matters at WTF, and those who are interested in WTF will read it. The same holds for TNCR, of course. It's really quite simple |

Actually, Jon, that's one thing that would potentially improve things on any board, especially one that wants to force civility in the extreme. I don't know why the three of them jointly decided to pass the torch. I can imagine many reasons, most of them benign. The job takes a toll and people who volunteer their time to do this should be thanked, even when one disagrees with them. |

So why did you open this thread? This is not spam or pr0n. MANY here are interested. MANY at WTF are interested in TNCR. We talk about what interest us. May I suggest you exercise your right to not read stuff you don't like instead of trying to control the board? I'd love to ban discussing politics from this board. It is garbage and I don't want to read about it. So guess what - I don't open those threads. |

Klaus, I understand why you might find discussion of WTF pointless, uninteresting and even frustrating. But these are threads you should simply skip. [edit: whoops, looks like Kenny beat me to the punch! ]

Well if there *has to be* moderators, I'd agree with what jon says Mik & Quirt having to agree would make for a cool 2-some. |

I don't know. I'm not overly hesitant to exercise authority when I have it, and I'm not much one to explain or justify what I decided was right at the time. I do things like that more intuitively than through great deliberation. Trolling? It's like porn. Hard to define, but I know it when I see it. I think I'd be considered a great moderator until I moderated someone. |

A little maybe. I talk about different things, and I face much less support for my centrist viewpoints than here. |
