Hello guys and girls :)
I'm sure you've all seen the interesting turn of events recently, where upon Mr. Crimson Sky placed upon Mr. AirBozo and my self the amazingly serious resposibility of being mods to our TBCS forums.
(( "Our", as in the present community that posts, replies, informs, laughs, etc. ))
In this thread, I just want to give my first impressions on the subject.
To cSky, I'm greatly honoured, and humbled, by the decision to place that little green button under my name. I'm sure AirBozo feels the same.
We'll make sure to live up to the best expectations... the highest standards.
Just as the present team has done (w00t w00t to DaveW, Raken, and cSky) (Am I missing somebody?)
We are here to help.
Not to police, I would think (might be using the word 'police' in the wrong place).
We are no different than we were 48 hours ago.
I'm a major n00b in all things life, and deep geek-hood.
I am not better, smarter, and/or above anybody here.
I'll just keep on posting as I usually do...
I ask you guys to do the same towards us.
Sometimes, I'd "bite my lip" as to not make a cool joke on one of the moderators of different forums... Although it would have been funny.
Not sure why.
Don't hold that in.
Feel free to make fun if you feel like it.
Respect is always expected towards all members. :)
Even the Santa Guy --> :santa:
I haven't dabbled that deep into the little buttons and links I see now with moderator access... two or three things are cool.
Like, to the left to the "Quote" button, there's this nifty "Zap User 5,000 volts" button.
Yet to try that one.
I'm kind of treading lightly, cause I don't know if there's an "undo" to a mess-up I do... but I don't see why I would do a mess-up.
Just in case, I'm always experimenting with MintyMadness.
He's my guinea pig for the time being...
((So Minty, if you ever receive a ban, please don't get alarmed... I just wanted to see how the "Confirmation" page looked like. Same thing goes if you ever receive a 5k jolt of electricity... my bad... just testing...))
The forums have lots of tools... the search one is a favorite.
And if there's ever a post to delete, use the "Report Post" button, so we can see it ASAP and deal with it.
You guys know spammers never die... they just multiply.
So we'll keep it spam-free with your help!
A message to all, that I'm sure the good ones are aware of:::
Behind all these usernames, there are actual people.
I my self have been the author of two head-chompin' posts that, if I could, I would remove.
This is a great place people come to talk with friends... to help each other out... to see dancing bananas :banana: ... to feel good.
Let's try not to ruin that for the others.
A final thought on the f-Word.
I love the fWord.
Really.
But, there needs to be a balance... of like 99.98% non-usage VS 0.02% usage.
These boards are... let's think of them "family friendly".
Which doesn't mean "family oriented", but...
The Flanders, the Simpson's neighbors, shouldn't feel bad treading through here.
So... please use sparingly.
[[NOTE: The Administration reserves the right to change the percentages without prior notice.]]
In closing, I am open to all kinds of suggestions from any body.
You guys can PM me (and any of the other mods/admins) any time.
The very best wishes to all,
