Now its only a matter of time until Alyxx forms a coalization of moderators that will deceive the admins and seize the power on the Accursed Farms forum and finish the Scott dynasty, starting a new age of DOOM

P.S i really should stop playing dynasty warriors, its starting to affect me

Curses. You figured out my secret plan. Now I will have to silence you. *holds a roll of duct tape*

'Bout damn time, she/he been posting the crap out of this forum.

Post-whoring doesn't make a good moderator. But I reserve judgement on Alyxx's qualities until later.

You are 100% right, Bjossi and I don't think I was made a mod based on my post count. I sure hope not in any case.

[Kyronea]

Well, if I may say, to a certain extent there IS some sense in making moderators people who are around all the time. After all, if they're not around all the time, how can they be effective moderators? Why would they care about their duties?

 

At the same time it's not the ONLY requirement nor should it be.

[Alyxx Thorne]

I can assure everyone that Ross did not make me a mod based on my post count or my activity alone, at least not according to his PM to me, though of course being active is a good quality for a mod.

 

But either way, back on topic, please.

Post counts do not really correlate with activity either. You do not need to post to pay attention, but it certainly helps with the chemistry between the staff and the other members to be visible outside the Who's Online box.

[Alyxx Thorne]

I'm not particurarily ashamed about my post count but I do not like to brag about it (I do not like to brag at all in fact) and I certainly haven't posted just to get a high post count. I think I'm just dedicated. I'm not really on any other forums and why not give this forum the attention it deserves? After all, it encompasses a lot more than just Ross Scott and I like the people here. And it's always special when you've been here since the beginning.

[Bjossi]

The reputation system was implemented to reduce or even eliminate the weight of post counts. That worked out quite well.

 

By the way, I sent you a PM, Alyxx.

Seems I made a bit of a mistake there. It has been fixed now though.

Welcome to Staff, Alyxx.

 

I expect one of the reasons you were made Staff because of how frequently you visit the forums. I'm sure you'll do great. ^^

I'm sure I probably won't really do that much and be a bit neutral but I'll do my best. I'm mostly just gonna join in the discussions like I have been so far.

Oh Alyxx, now you're all yellow!

[Alyxx Thorne]

Oh Alyxx, now you're all yellow!

What am I, a Simpsons character?

Let's hope not, otherwise nothing is going to be done right.

[Alyxx Thorne]

Well, luckily I'm not.

[imperial1scout]

Yes that is lucky.

 

Tangentally related: If you were a simpsons character, which one do you think you would be?

[Alyxx Thorne]

Most likely Boobarella.

[imperial1scout]

Nice, +rep for you.
