    I thought you couldn't be a mod if you expressed any interest in it? Happily I'm not interested, but in a hypothetical way lets imagine if I was interested.

    I would rule these cowering masses with an iron fist, brook no objection to the sacred scriptures of the charter or boards policy, and burn all the heretics.. er scratch that last one. My reign would be a glorious era of enlightenment and contentment, with free TVs and pudding for all. Across the tubes, the word "boards" shall be whispered with awe and reverence, not in the same sentence as the clearing of phlegm.

    And in no way in this hypothetical universe would I be applying for the job just to skive off and get free access to s&s.

    I would like apply please.

    I also feel my dutch liberal views may benefit the forum.

    Thanking you

    Wim

    Its also worth pointing out that I saw most if not all of the people who are going to post in this thread at a "We Hate Mustard / We Beat Puppies" rally the last day, which I was trying to sabotage. Just throwing that out there.

    I think you should pick me. Heres why:

    - I can program c++ and i can design/edit websites.

    - I have previous Moding experience on the F365 forum.

    - My ballz are huge.

    - Ive only been banned from here once, still banned from personal issues.

    - I have a vast collection of porn which im willing to share.

    - Im completely open minded and wouldn't delete posts/ban unless they were strictly breaking the rules

    - my ballz are huge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭HammerHeadGym


    I'd do it.

    -I'm not a dick.
    -I am unlikely to go mad with power.

    Is that three brown envelopes or will I just send a suitcase so?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    I vote for whoever posts next.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    Excellent, I'll do it so ;)

    Sure I'd know what crap people will do before they do it ... like Minority Report.

    Qualifications? I have about 7 bans under my belt ... 2 of them from AH! So I know how the spammy trolls thinks.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 121 ✭✭kf1920


    i thought it was like shooting yourself in the foot to ask for it????

    I vote that you go for someone bigoted, rude, power hungry and with no sense of humour! We should all be allowed mock him without punishment!

    You have to have bans to progress here?? Right i'm off to spam and mock people......

    Why? to stop power hungry people? but they are funny as long as they arent picking on you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,966 ✭✭✭GhostInTheRuins


    I can't understand why anyone would volunteer to be an AH mod, it would be nothing but hassle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    True but if you were ever gonna pop your mod cherry it would have to be a bit of a challenge.

    I'm already mad with power, so I can truthfully say it wouldn't change me.
    I can divide by zero.
    I can believe it's not butter.
    All posts beginning with To xxxx or not to xxxx will be edited to be more amusing to all.
    I have no specific qualifications, but bearing in mind the random nature of stuff that people post here that should be a bonus.

    I assume there will be some form of fringe benefits. ;) Muffins in the morning and coffee emailed to me on the hour?

    6th for AH mod? Maybe... but we all know that he wouldn't not don't USE HIS MOD POWERS TO MUG OLD GRANNIES!! Give Sam the reins, and I will see to it that all old grannies are outlawed, removing this problem once and for all.

    I support 6th in his glorious battle to become AH mod.

    Seriously though, I think he'd be firm but fair, like you have to be with children/AH users! (I include myself amongst this!)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    I'll throw my name in! I do precious little with my life, and so have an abundance of free time, which I idle away on boards :D AH is my forum of choice and I feel an affinity with the indiginous AHers. Their peculiar ways both interest and inspire me in my day-to-day life. I feel I've learned alot from them, and, through my leadership, I feel it is time I gave a little something back to them.

    As a newly appointed moderator, I have come to appreciate the gargantuan task which my fellow moderators have had to endure for so long. As the teetotal members of the Non-Drinking Club will tell you, I rule my forum through a careful balance of fear, intimidation, and sexual favours. I am unflinching in my desire for order and stability, and, though I have yet to ban anyone (this in itself is a testiment to the respect which the non-drinkers hold for me), if anyone steps out of line (eg. has a sip of some sherry over Christmas), I will have no trouble in banishing them. I am tough but I am fair. Everyone knows the deal when they enter the Realm of Dave.

    If I am elected moderator of After Hours, you can expect much of the same. Oppression, intimidation, draconian punishments (incl. death), etc., etc., etc.

    I look forward to crushing you all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,647 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    I'll do it. People hardly know me, so if I banned them, they wouldn't know who to complain to and just wander off and everyone would be happy.

    Sacré bleu!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,096 ✭✭✭bunny shooter


    I'll do it :cool:

    I should be chosen cause I'd be good at it ;)

    Nothing to do with size but how you use them ? It must take something special to be an AH Mod, perhaps insomniac, alcoholic etc etc might help?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,626 ✭✭✭timmywex


    my names in!! although i prob have too little posts to be considered, not even that small amount tho!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,379 ✭✭✭Jimbo


    Ok, enough of the waffle. I have decieded I will be the new Mod notwithstanding pay negotiations, etc.
    Bow down people

    That's me in the TV ad, you know dressed as a rabbit and doing what a rabbit does best! Never had a complaint:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,445 ✭✭✭jd83


    As a long time lurker in BGRH i will support 6th for aH mod


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,745 ✭✭✭doonothing


    I would hate to mod AH, or any other forum. Unpaid hassle over a website that's meant to be useful and fun. Why would anyone want to be a mod! The internet power or something? thats like, minus-power!

    So yeah, I support whoever would actually want to do it. As long as they can explain why.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky


    I'd do it, purely because I can siteban you all.

    oooooh really .............. have you checked your complaints box ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,745 ✭✭✭doonothing

    Should I start a thread about why not to be a moderator? or can I just post here where the people I want to ask will be? Hmm. That's a toughie alright.
    Thanks, for the input though. Helpful!

    I owe Boards at this stage and what better way to pay my debt than taking on AH but I'd want to be a Goderator!

    Ah mod? no thanks o.O

    mod should have a good sense of humour though!

    Yea, his name inspires confidence that he will be a tough and oppressive leader


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,037 ✭✭✭youcancallmeal


    Sign me up. I rarely post in here so it would make me more neutral in disputes?
    Oh wait but if its more of a popularity contest then I'll say 6th :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,411 ✭✭✭SUNGOD


    me dicky


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    Pick me! Pick me!

    I'd be deadly serious about being a mod. Experiences as a cunteoir in the Gael Thucht make me very well versed with dealing the kiddies.

    No molestation records either.


    Nah I think I;d be a great mod.


    Good sense of humour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,096 ✭✭✭bunny shooter


    No molestation records either.

    Any CD's (practising my sense of dry humour)
