pinkmouse I have read a lot
I think you will do a nice job
and hopefully grow along with the responsability
that has been given to you
And you will gain more and more experience of the delicate task.
Consult planet10 and the others - they have developed some skills.
Good Luck!

This post should not be considered as a bribe
when you judge this difficult case "halojoy".
I have to play by the rules, almost 😉
like even Jason himself had the curtesy of doing.
If a post by me is
refused and removed ,
I would probably already be busy
writing on my next, hopefully more okay post.

Halo, Dhaen, thanks!
Everyone else,
Hopefully this new role will not go to my head, I have decided, after consultation with the other mods, to put my plans for a giant underground base and orbital death ray on hold for the time being!😉
But seriously, I am fully behind the new ethos of moderating as espoused by Dave in his thread here, and I think these guidelines are sensible and well thought out, both for members and mods.
I believe the board has turned a corner in the last few months, thanks to the existing mods and you lot out there, and hopefully I, and the rest of the Moderating team will have less to do, as you are all so well behaved
Dhaen, Zardoz is one of those strange DIY video projector types, but apart from that, he seems OK 😉 😀
Merry Christmas and season's greetings to you all

Pom - what is that?Brett said:

zardoz -profile
zardoz - is a former worker in the Army - can be a good guy inspite of that 😀
And he knows a lot of repairing Cars (auto mechanics)
Sounds as most valueable knowledge!
/halo - knows a lot - but not enough 😕
Re: Re: Fresh Faces on the moderator team

Face of the moderator
to not explain "Pom" to the rest of us
He obviously knows it
But what can we expect from him?
A lot probably
/halo - mad again

Re: Face of the moderator
i believe it is slang for a person from England. I am not sure if it carries any hidden undertext.
Or it could just be "Porn" with the last two letters pushed together 😀

Whinging Pommy - Australian term of "affection" for Brits...
Pommey - from the French nickname for British troops during WWI, not sure of the derivation, bound to be rude though, knowing the French opinion of Brits!
Whinging- derived from Whine, like what a small kid will do when told he can't have a new toy.
The Australians seem to think we complain a lot, maybe it's just retribution for not letting them have The Ashes (of English Cricket, a trophy for the series of games between us and them, that they always win!)

<i>Pom derives from the fact the English convicts bore on their backs the letters P.O.H.M - Prisoners of His Majesty. </i>
A more recent variation is P.O.M.E. Prisoner Of Mother England.
<i>A drive-in Lion park half way between Brisbane and the Gold Coast had the following sign up till it closed in the early 80s:
Adults: $10
Children: $5
Pommies on bicycles admitted free.</i>

Brett, I stand corrected!🙂, but that's the derivation in my book of slang...
But then, I think of myself as a Yorkshireman first, and an European second, I show no allegiance to a false Monarch...😉

Apart from my recently departed Nana, who was originally a Yorkshire lass, all my anscestors are Scots or Irish. I reckon if we had some Welsh in us, then we'd be completely unintelligible.

Hi Christoph, thanks, I reckon I wound them up so much whilst I was on the outside, they wanted me as mod to get their own back!😉

I'm off for a family get together now for a couple of days, so behave yourselves, OK? George Dubbya couldn't afford my orbital laser cannon,( he said he's spending lots of money on boats and planes for some reason??), so it's still ready for any bad behavior!!🙂
Merry Christmas all and happy holidays
Brett
Only if they come from Glasgow or Belfast, mate🙂
