Thank you

Seriously though - I'm on here every day more or less and would have no problem doing it. C'mon peeps - more yes votes needed before I toddle off to Mark and Jason to get a new sub-forum added.

Spoken like a true mod!

(can I vote twice?)

I've been speaking to them about it for a while already, Paul, but you should PM them about it also- the more views they hear about, the better.

All the best.

I was laughing as well, but there is sound reasoning behind the suggestion.

Are you going to let us all in on the "suggestion"?

booforty · 09-03-2007, 04:45 PM

Is your funny suggestion something like having Northern Meet 1 down South?

No, nothing like that, but guaranteed, you will love it.

silverbmwz3 · 09-04-2007, 01:53 AM

It must be either:

I) Kick carlos off or
2) Carlos for moderator

I only find no 2 funny.

silverbmwz3 · 09-04-2007, 01:55 AM

This has now gone from "shall we have a chat thread" to "we need a moderator". Frankly, no offence viv, if there is a structure and some guidelines in place i'm not convinced that we do or at least that they'll be very busy. It's friendly round these parts!

- Paul - · 09-04-2007, 03:58 AM

The poll is still against having a separate area. As for the moderator stuff - The admins will decide that I guess.

RockIt · 09-04-2007, 05:16 AM

I just voted yes to a separate area. I'm not against banter in and amongst threads, but there has been an increase in threads going way off topic and in posts that I believe would be better suited to a general chat room. Wading through the dross can become rather tedious.

Serjames · 09-04-2007, 05:49 AM

I'm all for it, and voted yes, as long as it doesn't prevent the occasional off-topic wander within sensible threads.

I agree that the "I'm too pissed to type" threads need to be elsewhere - no offense Carl.
