You could call it a holiday…..albeit an enforced one.

All of us mods, supermods and Sue are sick of endless PM's and reported posts on the subject, so we're hoping that things will calm down a bit now. When he returns, everybody needs to either utilise the ignore function, or just stop the pointless digs and insults.

So let's have a bit of Christmas cheer and hopefully get back to normal.

If he carries on in the same vein, then yes, it will be permanent.

Although it has to be said, the ban button was hovering over a few names yesterday, patience was wearing rather thin in the mod squad!

I'd be the first to admit I'm not the brightest button in the sewing box but I have absolutely no idea what is going on or who has been removed from what. Out of pure nosiness (sorry concern and empathy), would anyone with knowledge of what this is all about perhaps PM me a short précis. I've read all the posts (or at least looked at the pictures) for this thread and it seems no worse than most others that are posted on here on a daily basis.

Am I missing the elephant in the room?

I also note that the provisions of Rule 15 don't apply on a universal basis either

Wish I'd missed it. A week before Christmas and insults being flung around and numerous reported posts filling up my inbox were not what I needed.

The idea was that hopefully everybody now knows what's expected of them, so we can avoid a repeat in mid Jan. I don't think a sticky is needed, but hopefully those that were causing the problems will hit the ignore button instead now.

Now let's get this thread back on track shall we?

Thx.

As shameless an attempt to buy votes in the best mod category as I have ever seen. I just wish I had thought of it

Still none the wiser but I don't suppose it was important. Back on track, how do I actually vote? Is there a way to see the categories and put in my nominations for each one? I don't have a means of printing them out here so I need to see them and type nominations simultaneously.
Thanks.

I should have thought of it sooner, Siouxie and I are lagging behind the other country mods.

You just have to PM Mandymoochops with your votes, she's collating them all. So copy and paste the list in to a PM and then add your names of choice by it.

HTH.

Got it thanks! Are the categories still the same as on the first post? How do I know not to vote for whoever all the hoohaa is about? I don't want to get into trouble for mentioning whoever it is I'm not supposed to mention.

You will always get my vote Mr. ex-mod. I liked your style and I will never forget the quiet mod to mod support & advice you gave to me when I was at a low ebb with it all.


Bit disappointment there will be no forum polls MooChops although I know they are a lot of work. I'm quite a bit into it all this year and would have liked to cast an incognito vote or two.
