    Due to time constraints and personal commitments I am no longer able to moderate this board effectively and efficiently and would not be able to do so for the forseeable future, and as such a changing of the guard has been put into effect.

    Please welcome the new PW mod, ShawnRaven

    Thank you very much, first of all, i'd like to thank the academy...

    Seriously, normal rules apply as they did before, banhammer doesn't come out unless it has to, and i'd like to wish orestes all the best in his future endeavors. :)

    Old habits die hard i'm afraid, besides, half the forum have threatened that at some stage anyway. ;)

    If i could ban pro undertaker comments, then i'd have to ban myself for giving him a compliment last week.

    The only thing i'm struggling with is the extra edit features, which i'm now clicking and using for quotes by mistake. :rolleyes:

    Best of luck man! :D
    Can we start boards campaign to get Rovert back now;)
    You might have to cut down on the old Taker/Punk/Umaga/Cena hate now seeing as you have to set a good example!:P

    I actually miss the guy! I still catch him on MMA and Rock & Metal, but it's not like he's been permanently banned from PW either. I don't think anyone could force anyone who doesn't want to post, to post. If i could do that, i'd get Minto back too! ;)

    But then i'd also have to lie through my teeth, and i was never any good at that.

    How come you don't like Punk? (the wrestler)


  • Registered Users Posts: 320 ✭✭Lita Forever


    Congrats on becoming mod SR, best of luck with it! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    How come you don't like Punk? (the wrestler)

    It's not that i don't like the guy as such, i just don't see the big deal with him, that's all. The CP Munk name isn't one I gave him incidently, i heard it on a podcast about two years ago and the name kinda stuck since.


  • Subscribers Posts: 2,163 ✭✭✭Brolly


    Congrats on your new role SR...ah the benefits of being the mod...for a start, you win every argument disagreement!;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Best of luck. :)

    Ah i see. I must admit i quite like him, though.


    Anyway, best of luck as mod.

    Mandatory Good Luck to new mod. ;) Nah seriously good luck.

    Good luck SR. Just know that when you **** up I'll be there with My I ♥ Rovert T-shirt :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,594 ✭✭✭Fozzy


    Hopefully you can live up to the precedent that I set :pac:

    Good luck


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 741 ✭✭✭pingu_girl


    :eek::eek::eek::eek: well that's a PW Board death penalty for me anyways!:pac:

    haha only messing, I know You'll mod Fairly amongst all posters....right?

    Not that it matters at all but CP Munk was Necro Butcher who dressed as a straight edge chipmunk and tagged with Colt Ca-Bunny (bunny costume) in CHIKARA called team WWF.......there's some absolutely useless information for all of you.

    Good luck

    Good man SR, i've no doubt you'll do a great job. Never a dull moment on the forum when you're about. As good oul' JR would say: "Business is about to pick up!"


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,854 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Firstly good job Orestes even if its only been a short stint, hope the board doesent lose you fully.

    but I actually think VR/SR is a really good appointment even if he may have views not all agree on, he knows he stuff and is a good contributer to the board and hopefully will not go mad with power :D so welcome new overlord who i of course have never disagreed with in anyway ;)

    I had been wondering this myself, he had been the good cop to Orestes bad cop modding but then recently became a silent partner...(now who will make the joke)

    Somehow I don't think that's gonna happen, PPV nights wouldn't be the same without the guy for a start.

    I've no intention of going mad with "power", although I can't guarantee that the power won't go mad with me. In all seriousness, the aim is to carry on in the same vein as orestes. The board ran smoothly and both he and Vince did put in a lot of work to clean up the mess that happened in transition. I'm sure as hell not going to jeoprodise that.

    I'm wondering too, despite what some people may believe, I don't actually sit here in PW 24/7. ;)

    Best of luck sr.Im sure you'll do a good job!
    On a side note,wheres Vince gone?I don't think hes posted for a while now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    Congrats SR, no better man to take the reigns of orestes! all the best with it dude!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,054 ✭✭✭D.Q


    Wow, congrats!! fair play and all that.. Things gonna get interesting! :D

    Well done to Orestes as well, very good job.. despite betrayals.

    .....I hold my grudges... haha:p
