New PW Mod Revealed! [Post #199]

    Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,973 Mod ✭✭✭✭


    We are doing some restructuring here at the PW forum.

    My life in Taiwan has got a bit um lets say more time consuming and I dont feel I should be one of only two mods. I offered my resignation letter to Gimmick but he turned me down. Instead we are getting a new man in as part of a move away from the traditional mod tag team and instead start our own mod squad stable. I will now have a lesser role akin to the one Terry used to fill and a new fellah will come in to wield the ban hammer.

    Who will that be? im sure you guys have some theories that could make for good reading but eventually this thread will be turned into their welcome thread so be warned there is a fox in the hen house, a wolf in sheep clothing atm always watching and waiting for their moment when they will reveal themselves as the third member of the NWO mod squad and ban you all mwah ha ha ha.

    Flah or Diabhil deserve it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    I'll throw my name in the hat but honestly Flah is the top option.

    Actually, just reading the OP...

    :pac::pac::pac:

    Hope you still post here anyway BH and thanks for all the hard work you've done.

    It ain't me bai's I'm afraid! The truth is it could be any number of lads really, plenty excellent posters on here more than worthy really - Walter, D2D, Machismo, the bostoncrab, Divvil, MNG, jaykhunter etc etc. I've probably left a load out as well.

    Whoever it is has a fairly easy job anyway tbh.

    I don't post here that often, but the PW forum is one of the best on Boards.ie. You can learn a lot from lurking here as well as getting a good laugh from some of the drama. Good luck to whoever it may be.

    Good Shout. Himself or DM ICE would bring the Straight Edge lifestyle onto the forum:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Agree with all the sentiments. Hope you keep posting BH. The fact that there's a big list of people who could be the new mod tells you all you need to know. Great people and its a damn shame we haven't had a meet-up yet but hopefully it will happen soon.

    Absolutely. The PW forum is probably, hell, it is the best forum on boards. Very laid back and everyone gets along. Gimmick and BH have done 1 hell of a job. Really hope you continue posting BH, shur the BWE and ATH wouldn't be for ya.

    Fozzy is my guess. Or Orestes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,235 ✭✭✭✭flahavaj


    If ye have lured my Gerard back from Asia with the promise of a steady wage I think I might cry with happiness.


    Also could very well be Slick Ric.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 90,400 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    JayK or Walter?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,732 ✭✭✭Reganio 2


    As one of the longest standing posters here (cause most of you sit down when doing it) it should be me lets face it :P.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Someone from the UKFF? So he can be trained in how a wrestling board is run and without ***** and then bring it back there?

    Hope ya keep posting BH! If even just to hear how the Irish invasion of Asia is going.

    man that's so nice that a few of you have thrown my name around! :)

    Judging by the thread I reckon it's a swerve and it's either flah (or "flavajav" as i pronounce it) or D2D; both have earned their stripes. Gosh there's a load more it could be. MNG who runs the Draft, or Machismo_Fan who is always there with a positive, considered opinion....We've the best PW board here. Loads of very intelligent AND nice blokes. This kind of thing wouldn't happen anywhere else on the net! :) Congrats to the new mod!


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


    I'd still say its Flah. Other than that I cant think.

    Maybe Slick, him with the Mod credentials already and all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,235 ✭✭✭✭flahavaj


    Thanks for all the kind words lads, but it honestly isn't me. I'm as intrigued as anyone.

    The more I think of it it will be Slick Ric, he's a mod already so they won't even have to check his credentials. If he can manage the asylum thats the SF, PW will be a walk in the park.

    If BH and gimmick were any good they could have sent the place into meltdown by telling us "SR" was coming to take over.:pac:


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


    ....you dont think... Kentonbomb?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,568 ✭✭✭glenjamin


    Nah.. It wouldnt be fair when i ban all those Miz fans:pac:
    It's gonna get very lonely around here when it's just the two of us left :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,997 ✭✭✭Degag


    I think that apart from Slickric who IMO does a great job in the soccer forum, DB, Ger C or Jayk would be good choices. I thought DB did a great job with the whole WM meetup saga and i think that Ger and Jayk contribute alot on here.

    Then again, i'd do a great job too...... get banned?? €20 over paypal gets it overturned!:pac:

    Flah bai I'd have stayed signin on for the rest of my life if I'd known my exodus to Bangkok would upset you so. I type this post with a heavy heart, but it eases the weight somewhat knowing that we can cry green tears together.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    This love-in Ger and Flah, reminds me of one of my fav Futurama quotes

    In fairness, you know well that would never ever happen on my watch. Besides, it was floated in last years April Fools effort.

    Has the person been told they've been chosen yet? Otherwise, I smell a swerve by someone who already said it wasn't them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    It's going to be either me or Vince Rousso ;)


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


    Can it be me?! :)

    Have you reneged on us oh glorious leader?!:P

    Here's my guesses at who it is:

    The return of the banhamner, SR. As vince says, he could "shake things up again!"

    Pinkdiva.. !

    Alan from wrestlezone.

    Drayme.

    An 'anonymous GM mod who only communicates to us through threads and we never really get to know their true identity. (if duplicate accounts weren't so frowned upon it could make a great april fools joke.)

    And now for the serious guesses;
    I would have originally said Ger C, but as he's off in Asia too, would that be a bit counter productive as that's the reason BH is stepping down?

    Flah, but if your denying it's you and it turns out it is, you better use this image for when it's revealed:
    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTdZfdz-zoROsSuaFXGKKYu-FD5l0l_XQvyhyndDLAGDOBLI_WW

    D2D. :cool::cool:

    Liz definitely. My money's on liz.
    It's a curveball as it would say a lot to have a female as a mod of pw.

    I would say Walter too but I could see him going mad with power. You could hear it in his voice on the podcast. :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    Can it be me?! :)

    Youve just broken the cardinal sin of midship. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    I really hope it's Ted DiBiase.

    I mean the actual Ted btw.

    Bring some class to the place.

    They have been told and told not to say anything as its yet to be rubber stamped by admins etc hense them being a wolf in sheeps clothing and not just a wolf like me & Gimmick. This thread is just a bit of fun tbh (first time ive got to check it since i started it now) but will be turned into their welcome thread when their identity can be revealed.

    some good Poirot work by CM Punked below, one things for sure, there are a lot of good candidates in PW which says a lot about its posters... and yes i can confirm we were in talks with Zack Ryder, though apparently his reading of an old thread where his career was the subject of a bet made him turn down the chance after he realised the posters didnt think it was worthy as a thread of being stickied. :pac:

    edit: o and thanks guys, dont think im going anywhere but wont be as active for many reasons


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,604 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    thanks for the unforeseen recommendations lads, but it ain't me.

    i'd be bored having mod duties here, far too pleasant a place to be :p

    Is this what conclave is like when they are picking a new Pope?!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,913 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    And I can say it isn't me (not that anyone thought it was <_<). I've killed the last four forums I was a mod on...

    I was going to say it was seeing as you said you modded in the past.
    But killed?! What did you do?!

    Well, it wasn't that I killed them. Not completly anyway <_<

    Back when I used to efed, I seemed to develop a habit of being asked to become a mod of boards as they were in massive decline.
    1st board I became a mod after a mass exodus and the main mod had opted to leave. Managed to keep the board going for two years and brought it back to some glory before I had a massive blow out with a troll who basically killed the friendly discussions. Everyone left.
    Board 2 I started up but the troll followed me. Had about 20 members but they all left when the troll would basically create numerous accounts and spam the board with gay porn. :/
    Board 3 was same as the first; an efed started declining badly. The mod team was five people. They promoted me and another dude to the team and 4 of them disappeared without ever giving us warning. Once people worked out the original mod team (and writers of the shows) were gone, they just left as well. Worse, it was something of an "old boys club" and myself and the other, despite being the best writers on the boards, weren't respected cause we were "new". They didn't really give us a chance.
    Board 4 was a general discussion board I started up which never took off. Had some people from the first three boards that I was friendly with but it never actually did anything. Guess that was more a case of not coming to life than dying though.

    Reason I say this is I can appreciate how tough it is to be a good and efficent mod. God bless the guys on here cause this is now probably my favorite discussion board of all time and they do a bang up job. Sure whoever they've picked will do one as well :)

    I just blew some milk out of my nose from reading that! Thanks!

    Looking back now, I can laugh.
    Back then though, it pissed me off seriously. Worse, his first attack came on the day of my graduation from college. I arrived home, all happy and proud, and checked my website to see 300 idential images of two guys doing stuff to each other. >_<


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Voltwad is my proper guess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,284 ✭✭✭Gerard.C


    My guesses -

    Flahavaj - This man will forever be number one on my list, regardless of the purpose of the list in question. The meer scent of his fragrant posts on here would moderate even the most mean spirited gollywag.

    Conor Hurley - Who would dare troll when he's around. Banhammer? Wouldnt do much when he have ya splattered all over the side of Easons for usin txt tlk.

    Dan Shanahan - I hear he have wireless in the Oil Truck nowadays.

    Rovert - I dont have "proof" its him though.

    Diarmuid Gavin - Maybe ye want the PW forum to grow. Who'd know more than the bauld Gavin

    The Queen of England - I'm skeptical about the true purpose of her visit, and its very coincidental timing...

    I am open to being wrong on all of these except Flahavaj

    If only there was some sort of PW spoiler sites I could find out. :o

    But I'm gonna stick with the idea it's liz.
