    I think Sherry is the only non-CLUB mod. I asked her whether she felt any peer pressure to join. She feels none.

    Not that it matters. MWAHA.

    *Listens for the angry hordes to stomp into the thread.

    I must say, this shell of a website has much more life in it now than it did a while ago. Yeehahaha.

    Hahaha. Bob. Time to moooooove on.

    Come back to the club, Kevin. Mo has prepared a lovely bottled fart, infused with warm water vapour, especially for you.

    Hey Mods! Tell us about your latest disagreement in running the site. What was it about and how was it dealt with? Who has the ideas? Who plays devil's advocate? Who is the peacekeeper? And don't tell me "everyone". If it is indeed "everyone" then make something up cos otherwise it's boring.

    Well, aren't you all just a pack of rosy-cheeked, freckle-faced, pinafore-wearing, boarding school students in an Enid Blyton novel. Let me get out my ginger beer and tongue sandwiches and we can go for a ramble in the woods together with our dog, Blackie.

    Britt is obviously forgetting the time we nearly came to blows because the hussy was trying to steal my man (Kevin). Swords were getting drawn, Jane was trying to argue rationally over the din of our curses, and we were only stopped by Italian Stallion, who flung himself to his knees between us. He was weeping ardently, and clutching a dozen violet stems in his hand. "I just can't bear to see the anger, it falls on me like a bruise," he whispered.

    What could we say to such docile, innocent, sweet pleading?

    I know you were! :D Just felt like trying to make things difficult but it didn't work.

    Question: Has the forum that only moderators are allowed to go to always been for just the mods?

  • Jad

    I see. Why he have to fix it! XD

    I was being extremely sarcastic. I want it to stay how it is. We don't need more drama with people trying to bust inside of it! :P

    Bob's right. Kevin may have felt the need to sow his wild oats in other poetic pastures... but he's always gonna have that "I Love The Club" heart tattoo stamped on his left buttocks. I thought he should play it safe and just go with "Sibby," but noooo.

  • Jad

    ^lol

    That tattoo was getting him clubbed by well-intentioned samaritans and sexual deviants every weekend. No wonder he finally had to leave.

    QUESTION: Do you mods like us members using threads other than there intended subject? :]

  • sibyllene
    13 years ago

    Personally, I don't mind it in most threads. This particular thread, for example, is a place for people to chat with the mods and ask whatever questions they have. It should be an open platform. The idea that a post that makes a natural deviation from the originally stated topic is "spam" is pretty ridiculous.

    What I DON'T like is when people start a thread to try to have open communication or serious brainstorming for the betterment of the site, and people devolve into petty bickering. That's when it gets annoying. Even then, arguing isn't against the rules, it can just be very annoying when the point of a thread is some logical discussion and people pop in with garbage. We've all seen how easily that escalates. Poets are passionate types.

    Cool so can I talk about waffles in this thread then? :P

  • sibyllene

    Absolutely.

  • Jad

    You Mods freckin rule! XD

  • sibyllene
    13 years ago

    Well, would you look at that... we could have had universal peace all along if we had only thought of waffles.

  • Jad

    Britt you are making me extremely hungry! lol I'm leaving so I'll be back with some more insanity later. :]

  • Jad

    QUESTION: How are you going to answer me if this is at a hundred post and you have to close it? XD

  • Kevin
    13 years ago

    I left the club because I felt it has some of the best most active and intelligent members on this website, and we were all boxed up in the club and didn't really have much of a need to step outside.

    Not that since leaving I've been the life and soul of P and Q, but clearly the kinds of discussions I like to have don't sell to well here, or I have to listen to the same rebounds post wiki links in place of real answers.

    Still, I do think about the THE CLUB on occasion, sort of like an ex I suppose.

    /wink
