Congrats, Ralf! My heartiest congratulations on acquiring the moderator status... #1 (permalink) Sat Jul 12, 2008 21:27 pm   Congrats, Ralf! My heartiest congratulations on acquiring the moderator status...
 

Hi Ralf

My heartiest congratulations on acquiring the moderator status on the forum. How does it feel?

But I was very surprised to see MM's name as a moderator on What do you want to talk about, and I think everyone would know why--he hardly appears here let alone moderate it.

Is it a mistake, Torsten, that Alan's name was removed from here and MM's put there? We all know that Alan's got a heavy schedule because of newsletter and tests and all.

Looking forward to your feedback, Ralf

Just because I don't talk doesn't mean I don't listen, Tom.

Yeah, I'd have thought MrP would be up for the moderator's badge long before Ralf or MM.

And here's what could be Ralf's first task as moderator regarding deletion of "offensive" posts:

I think the choice of Ralf as moderator is scraping the barrel a wee bit.

Hi Molly,

Why do you think your posts are offensive? And why do you think they should be deleted?

Hi Ralf

Please allow me to extend both my congratulations and my condolences on your new position. Wink

(I guess you won't find spam deletion, for example, to be much fun...)

And here I'd always thought green was a 'color'. Wink

Haven't you seen the new-fangled "greenbacks" yet?
Abe Lincoln has turned pinkish. Alexander Hamilton looks sort of orangish. And Andrew Jackson looks a little jaundiced. God only knows what will be next! Shocked Laughing

To finish your sentence, Ralf, green's the color of the Green Bay Packers (the main color, anyway). hehe

Well, I'm going by my posts that Torsten has deleted over the past weeks. Strange that neither yours nor MrP's or Amy's and Jamie's offensive posts have been deleted during that time though. Now I expect even more "selective" moderating.

IMO, someone who loses his head a lot and attacks other posters should not be a moderator. But, it ain't my forum, so...
