Thank you to the moderators!

[Grench]

These forums would not be the spam cleaned, organized, threads parsed, fantastic place for discussions that it is without the team of volunteer moderators. Most of what they do is 'behind the curtain'. (Wizard of Oz reference) They don't get paid, and frankly put up with a lot of random abuses while doing a very important set of tasks very well.

Just consider the tedium associated with parsing two discussions out of a single thread to reorganize the posts into separate areas more appropriate to the ongoing discussions. It's tedious and far too often thankless.

A recent discussion made me realize that we as a community often take our moderators and the tasks they do on our behalf for granted. I would like to take this opportunity for the rest of us to simply say, "Thank you!"

Please, everyone who is so inclined, post a, "Thank You!" message onto this thread and let's let them know we appreciate their otherwise mostly unsung efforts.

Thank you!

It takes 20 hour days and a lot of Whiskey honestly.

Good call @Grench, this is the nicest forum I've been on, due in no small part to the moderate mods. Thank you mods.

 

[TeDaDeS]

I rarely see spam and if they are visible they are gone really quick, so I'm happy they are removed by the mods. Thank you mods!

 

[liveunderwater]

Mods, your work is very much appreciated. Thank you very much.

 

[DaMummy]

The mods are great. Except for Wally. He's a wallaby.

 

[rSl]

you, mods,
are hard working behind the scenes, so thank you for doing this all day (and night) for us, the everage community-maniacs!

 

[rygD]

I wish the mods would stop giving me such a hard time.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

Mods are ok until they moderate you. Awesome people

 

[comradekingu]

Most subtle spam 2017. Thumbs up.
Down with ALL HAIL the mods.

 

[TrashyMG]

Thanks @Linux-SWAT, @comradekingu! touching words.

 

[rygD]

Yep, mods doing what mods do.

 

[Wally]

We're modifiers not moderators.

 

[rygD]

In case anyone isn't sure, the moderators make it like North Korea here.

 

[Wally]

pfft. As long as you wouldn't post something your mother / grandmother wouldn't like to see / discuss then we generally don't care..

 

[comradekingu]

Moderating in moderation.

 

[rygD]

pfft. As long as you wouldn't post something your mother / grandmother wouldn't like to see / discuss then we generally don't care..

In that case, why have I been holding myself back? If I had known that I was as free as if having a discussion with my grandmother then I would have been speaking my mind openly. Not all grandmothers fit the stereotype.

Now to push the limits until that rule gets changed!

 

[ElPoco]

Yep hardware THE mods are cool.
