Joining the discussion late I know, but c'mon Pea! You are hands down the best candidate for mod. You have brought this board a healthy dose of humor as well as some valuable veteran information with out becoming a complete ass in the process, but I understand if you don't want the responsibility. I also like the idea of Lumpy, but I'm afraid he would be too soft on people and would therefore be ineffective. I8 and HG on the other hand would NOT have this problem at all, but that brings other problems. I fear the board they become mods of. So where does that leave us...
I'd like to formally nominate emptyfox. He's been active on the board for a while, has been to plenty of 'Squatches, lives in the NW, and has a level head on his shoulders. Can you keep it up in the off season, Mr. Fox?

My job certainly keeps me in front of a computer enough... but I'm not really sure to be honest. Maybe I'll send off a PM to know and see what is involved.

I've always wanted to be a Mod.. but I don't really think I've earned it yet. Maybe next year.

emptyfox would be another great mod. Hell, I think most of us would do a fine job, it just comes down to who wants the responsibility.
*not it!*

Sounds like a great idea! I second that.. Can you smell the fear? I can smell the fear. Did you hear that? No? You’re probably going deaf. It’s your kids back home. Cooking up some crystal meth. Did you turn off the oven? Did you set the alarm? They still haven’t caught the man with one arm. Look around at these people. How safe do you feel? Your car, when you parked, did you lock it? Think reasonably now…what are the odds that no one here’s a pick-pocket? That guy who just coughed down your neck…Could he have an infection? The restaurant where you went to brunch – did it fail its health inspection? A mad man could set loose a virus for which there isn’t a cure and while these things may be unlikely - ask yourself – are you sure? And can you be sure… that you won’t get ebola from a tainted diet cola toxic waste are getting chased by a bearded Ayatollah. Funnel clouds inhale, anthrax in the mail, your lover will discover your vestigial tail. Someone’s robbing your house. I can see through your blouse. Your mother was right – you chose the wrong spouse. Unlabeled drano tornados torpedos the horrible sights of some Guidos in Speedos. STD’s, PCB’s SUVs, UV Lights A giant pimple on your face, you have a date tonight Choking on a biscotti being whacked by John Gotti Getting trapped overnight in a full port-o-potty And I have a final fear to drop in the bucket about a friend of a friend of the man from Nantucket. There once was a man from O’Claire Who no one was able to scare He wouldn’t join in on the panics About the Hispanics And later was killed by a sasquatch True story.

I might be interested if you give me a little better idea of the responsibilities... (I feel like I'm applying for a fucking job.) I hope this works out. I've grown to like I-8 and HG, I really have. but lets face it. . . . . They're Assholes.

Assholes who have the time and dedication to clean this place up. Because we're the heroes Sasquatch deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So you'll hunt us because we can take it. Because we're not your heroes. We're silent guardians, watchful protectors.

This place would have been a fly-picked carcass for the last eight months if it weren't for Horned Gramma.

Ahh, yes Peatrick, this is correct... But an asshole such as myself was required to give people something to be fired up about, and to keep the Switches and Drews and Hanchos in line.

Which is why I should be a moderator! I mean, I think the time investment alone entitles me to a trial run at least...

before Spiderman's uncle said it, i can't remember which movie I first heard the lines 'with great power comes great responsibility.' regardless, it was true then and it still rings true here.

I realize that becoming a moderator would be, for me, the equivalent of having one of my nards cut off. This is mostly for the sake of conversation. I have personally instructed Know to never ever make me a moderator, ever.
