Hi guys, I hope you are all well. We are looking for a few of our more senior members to become moderators. As many of you may know, we have had quite a few offensive posts in the last few days. As a moderator you will have the power (one button click) to delete unsavourary posts and delete offensive members. This will be a purely informal arrangement - and will take place simply when you are on the boards. If you want to become a moderator please reply to this message.

I got like 10 PMs saying the same thing, but I'm thinking about it.
Like my signature, but I still don't know if people should take it as a joke or not.
oh, and if you think my signature is offensive, please let me know.

Note to future moderators: Please learn to recognize jokes. do they need to learn to recognise them or do you need to learn how to tell them?

do they need to learn to recognise them or do you need to learn how to tell them? this was a demonstration that it can be very hard to tell if someone is joking online. maybe if you're writing something that could be interpreted the wrong way (hostile) you could put a smiley or (joke) on there...just an idea...

Hi Cassavo, thanks for that. I have just set you up as a 'Global Moderator'. You still login with your same password and username. Now, you can delete unsavourary posts. To delete a nasty topic, all you do is go to the very end of that topic page and click on the 'Remove Topic' button. If you think that another member is making offensive posts please email me and I will ban him.
Thanks again
Shane

I know I have the political sway of a woman in Afghanistan, but I have a problem with that.
On the Relationship board, Cassava said "At least she gets dates loser."
That's just not called for at a place like this.
I'll be a moderator if you need the help. I have nothing better to do than browse forums for a good part of the day.

Thanks Toltec. Your now a 'Global Moderator.' You log in as normal. To delete posts click on the 'delete' button at the end of the post. To delete an entire topic go to the end of the topic page and click the 'delete topic' button.
Nice one

It was my response to your rather cruel comment regarding someone who had just lost a boyfriend for being shy. I may have said a nasty thing, but it was in response to your unprovoked nasty comment so your no better.
