Kudos, Jersey Girl...you da (wo)man!

(now, can you bring back smilies???!)

Good Choice! She is pretty neutral - at least from what I read - ;)

Yes, you read that right. Jersey Girl, through the kindness of her heart, has volunteered to become a moderator, which will no doubt be a great help to Bond, Liz, and myself.

Now, I know that a few people here may be less than fond of Jersey Girl (you know who you are), but rest assured: I put her through a RIGOROUS screening process, and she passed. She also agreed to strictly adhere to my moderatorial modus operandii which I explicitly spelled out in a PM to her. Therefore, I am confident of her ability to be FAIR and impartial when in "moderator mode."

As I said elsewhere, every moderator is brought onboard on a "trial basis." If you have any concerns or complaints about Jersey Girl's moderation (or even Bond's or Liz's moderation), send me a PM and we'll work things out. (If you have any concerns about my moderation, send Keene a PM.)

So, again, WELCOME ABOARD, Jersey Girl!!

Thanks, Shades. I intended to reply here earlier however I became swamped with one thing then the next and so on and so forth ad nauseum. I offer up the following psalm to you...

I am but a powerless tool
A cog in a wheel
I will not think

I will not launch a full scale delete of PP and all his variants
I will not say F and S ever again on MDB*
Lest I become a moderating hypocrite

I will stuff myself into the box that thou hast created for me
And do as I am told
I will leave my brain outside of the box

I am a mere clone of Shades
I can do nothing without Shades for he leadeth me
I am nothing without Shades who thinketh for me

In the name of the pug, the pirate and the monkey brain that moveth upon the keyboard

Your humble servant,
Jersey Girl

*At the outside chance that I actually do say F and S again on MDB, I will eventually * it out as per the 300 page Moderator's Manual. I am, before all else, a Jersey Girl.

[_Dr. Shades]

I am a mere clone of Shades
I can do nothing without Shades for he leadeth me
I am nothing without Shades who thinketh for me

Ahh, now that's an attitude I can really warm up to! (at least on my moderatorial team.)

Just joshin' with ya,
Shades

way to go, Jersey Girl!

way to go, Jersey Girl!

Thank you, ozemc! You've given me a chance to try deleting a duplicate post! What are the chances I'll delete the whole thread?

We're gonna find out!

[_Jersey Girl]

Forgive this bit of self indulgence...so, I made a new thread in the Off Topic and practiced deleting one of the posts. Then, I deleted ozmec's duplicate post here. A monkey really can do this! I was so born to do this work!

Good job!

by the way, I have no idea how that happened. I did get a "500 internal error" at one point, and the whole browser closed.

Whatever that means ...
