    Being asked to be a mod is a bit like being asked to **** Camilla Parker Bowles

    You know it would be an honour but you don't really wanna do it



    Congrats Paul

    i used to mod on another site many years ago

    u'd be surprised how many silly complaints get run by you


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,448 ✭✭✭Roper


    You'll have to ban me at some stage.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 564 ✭✭✭Jason Mc


    is banning you not like fighter bashing? Hence its a bit paradoxical cus the mod would then have to ban himself?

    Sooner or later I'll say something that contravenes the charter, or something like that. Then Paul will find himself in that sticky spot that all newly promoted individuals hate. The mob will be baying for my blood and waving their pitchforks, but Paul will know that banning me might mean I pull my fighters from his show.

    I look forward to it immensely.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,803 ✭✭✭dunkamania


    I will happily save Paul from this dilemma, and take the burdeon of banning you upon my shoulders.


    Welcome on board Paul


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,448 ✭✭✭Roper


    If you do that I'll withdraw my Facebook friendship. Consider that my last warning.

    Welcome. I promise to behave unless people are saying stupid things. Then all bets are off :D

    In fairness, and against my beliefs when he was appointed, I think orestes did a superb job with a very firm but even hand.

    But yes, its great to have someone actually in the fight game as a Mod now.

    In fairness now the standard has improved considerably on this site. For a while there every second poast was about Dana White's video blog.

    Some good stuff the last while (since I was allowed back...coincidence? You decide) and good to see the Irish shows getting some time and being discussed too.

    Are you serious!!? That guy was a joke he banned one of this forums top posters, for lets be honest nothing too serious.
    Then I expressed my opinion on the decision and I got the boot!:mad::mad::mad:

    I for one was glad to see the back of ortestes!

    Bit of an over exaggeration here. Anyways it aint like they aren’t newsworthy especially lately. Makes a change from every other post being about Fedor.

    No, that was a perfectly fair call by him to be honest. I think he did a great job. Well done orestes!

    It is a pretty well established rule on boards if don’t like a decision by a mod take it to PM or Feedback or Helpdesk but this forum isn’t the place for discussing it. You broke a rule you got infracted at a time were the mods not just orestes stressed a no nonsense period to modding.

    I suggest you calm down.
    This is a welcome thread for the new Mod.

    I appreciate that you are :mad::mad::mad:, but mods are people with feelings too. Feedback or queries on modding decisions should be handled in PM's or feedback threads. I will be enforcing this going forward.


    Now, you all play nice or else I will set Cowzerp on you guys, I hear he is a fighter........;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,549 ✭✭✭✭cowzerp


    karate krazey, please lay off the name calling, in fairness to orestes he done a good job and did not interfere too much, barry knew he'd be banned for that, and is back now. Lets keep the forum free of crap and try to use it to promote the sport, at times it has the opposite effect and this needs to change..

    I'm very happy with this appointment myself.

    Sorry I haven't been around much lately, been bogged down with study, but from what I've seen dropping in and out, orestes did a great job and stepped up when I needed someone to so thanks to him also.


    Welcome along cowzerp. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,448 ✭✭✭Roper


    Even I didn't complain about my ban!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 564 ✭✭✭Jason Mc


    who got banned by the way?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,803 ✭✭✭dunkamania


    Roper for pointing out that hes smarter than everyone else, and karatekrazy for complaining about it.
