Hey congratulations on the promotion, now how about updating the reputable trader's list. Thanks.

It is the 3rd Millennium. For more than a hundred months Games Workshop has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Nottingham. It is the foremost of wargames by the will of the neckbeards, and master of a million tabletops by the might of their inexhaustible wallets. It is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with business strategies from the early Industrial Revolution Age. It is the Carrion Lord of the wargaming scene for whom a thousand veteran players are sacrificed every day, so that it may never truly die. Yet even in its deathless state, GW continues its eternal vigilance. Mighty battleforce starter-sets cross the online-store-infested miasma of the internet, the only route between distant countries, their way lit by a draconian retail trade-agreement, the legal manifestation of the GW's will. Vast armies of lawyers give battle in GW's name on uncounted websites. Greatest amongst its soldiers are the Guardians of the IP, the Legal Team, bio-engineered super-donkey-caves. Their comrades in arms are legion: the writing team and countless untested rulebooks, the ever vigilant redshirts, and the writers of White Dwarf, to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from other games, their own incompetence, Based Chinaman - and worse. To support Games Workshop in such times is to spend untold billions. It is to support the cruelest and most dickish company imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of sales discounts and Warhammer Fantasy Battle, for so much has been dropped, never to be re-published again. Forget the promise of cheaper digital content and caring about the fanbase, for in the GW HQ there is only profit-seeking, Space Marines and Sigmarines. There is no fun amongst the hobby shops, only an eternity of raging and spending, and the laughter of former employees who left GW to join better companies. |

It's gotta beat moderating the OT forum.
|
--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.
“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government.”

Currently there is no need for new mods.
For the new users/those who don't know.
The moderation team do keep occasionally updated rambling discussions amongst ourselves as to who would be good choices, and when a place opens up / more are needed the discussion becomes more focused and we go over posting history (we can see every post a user has made) until 2 or 3 candidates remain.
Yakface then makes the final decision and they are sounded out by Yakface and the promotion made if accepted.
Not everyone offered a position has taken it.
Although it has been quite some time since one of the full time moderator has retired (KWade 4 or 5 years ago if memory serves), we do grow in numbers as dakka grows.
And as different areas have grown, such as the articles or the swap shop, area specific moderators are employed there.

Ya why not, sure you dont like him , but are there any doubts about his competence and contribution?
Nope. Beyond the forum politics and epeen sword-fights , he is beyond suitable for it.

Aside from the fact that he is combative and openly rude to people, no, you're right I can't think of any reason.
I don't think Gwar could "Moderate" much.

If Gwar! were made a Mod, he would probably give himself suspensions now and then just to keep feeling at home Anyway, congrats to RiTides. Swap Shop gained a great mod with him IMO
