Why should you NOT be a Mod?

[ohiosmith]

I'd go mad with the power.

[Mojambo]

1. I'm lazy. n/t

[ohiosmith]

5. me too

[crim son]

2. I kinda like sexual themes and personal attacks.

:shrug:

[ohiosmith]

7. me too

[crim son]

12. Me too.

:P

[SPKrazy]

48. i don't think i spend enough time on du

:P

[Redstone]

3. Are you kidding? Between forgetting everything and my temper and my general

obliviousness, I'd plunge the place into chaos overnight.

And forget not only HOW I did it, but even THAT I did it.

Modding is WAY too important to DU to have a ding-dong like me do it.

[Inchworm]

6. lol

:rofl:

[ohiosmith]

8. me too

[eyepaddle]

'Tis a wise man who knows his own limitations!

:)

[Inchworm]

4. I'd forget I was one

then click some buttons one late drunk night and cause chaos.

:D

[ohiosmith]

9. me too

[Call Me Wesley]

16. Nah, there's only one button (MOD SECRET HERE!)

[Lex]

24. LOL!

:rofl:

[Inchworm]

44. Now I have fear

"Mod options: send electrical keyboard shock to poster: Buzz Lightyear"

Tiny buzzes all around! hehe

:rofl:

[Broken_Hero]

53. ..........

:spray:

you were suppose to keep that a secret! :P

[Hippo_Tron]

57. One of the things I miss about being a mod

It's much harder to take out your frustration when you can't send other people electric shocks.

[SOteric]

10. I really enjoyed my time as a Moderator,

it gave me tremendous insight into the inner workings of DU. I'd love to do it again some time.

But just now, I've got too much on my plate; and I've a priority for my time. In short, I couldn't give it the attention it deserves.

[EstimatedProphet]

63. I did too. My situation has changed though

When I was a mod, I was unemployed, and that worked out well. I don't think I could do it now that I have a full-time job.

[matcom]

11. You make the list for me

I don't have that much energy

[ohiosmith]

13. :

:rofl:

[WhollyHeretic]

14. I'm more of a casual dresser

[bicentennial_baby]

15. Eh, a bunch of people don't like me, my Ignore list is large,

I'm busy, etc, etc... :P

[ohiosmith]

19. Hey! Me too.

[bicentennial_baby]

23. I doubt that

:)

[ohiosmith]

30. don't

[Blue-Jay]

17. Because I'm universally hated.

Oddly enough, I'm OK with that.

[ohiosmith]

18. "Universally" may be an exaggeration.

[Blue-Jay]

21. I hate you too.

}(

[ohiosmith]

29. Well, now it is not an exaggeration.

[Random_Australian]

46. Now come on, there are people who don't hate you!

For example, people who've never met you, thieves, scoundrels, ne'er-do-wells, and evil velociraptor clones.










(Just kidding, they hate you too)

;)

[Pacifist Patriot]

20. I'm the type that jumps into something with both feet and then...

rapidly loses interest and moves onto another overwhelmingly absorbing activity. I'd be a great mod for 36 hours tops.

[ohiosmith]

22. Damn! Me too.

[Pacifist Patriot]

32. Sadly, I see the same pattern in my eldest son.

I wish I could spare him the agony.

[ohiosmith]

37. Beat him more frequently.

[Pacifist Patriot]

45. LOL! One of our running jokes at home is...

"when shall the evening beatings commence?"

Bill Cosby rocks!

[LeftyFingerPop]

25. One very important reason...

Cuz I don't want nuttin' innerferin' with my mobile Guyner Colligy Bizness.

[ohiosmith]

27. me too

[BarenakedLady]

26. I'm too naughty

Rarely serious and I'd let almost anything go.

[ohiosmith]

28. Damn right you are. Me too.

PS we're still waiting for the pics.

[BarenakedLady]

34. Start holding your breath

I'll get right back to you.

[ohiosmith]

36. RIGHT!

[BarenakedLady]

47. Where is the trust?

:shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

31. 1. I cherish irreverence, wanton flirting and all-around silly behaviour

2. I don't have the proper temperament to put up with all the bullshit from people who want threads locked or posts deleted simply because they don't agree with them or have issues with who posted them.

[ohiosmith]

33. me too

[Call Me Wesley]

35. So you never want to be a member of the most famous:

:shurg:

[Oeditpus Rex]

38. Helluva lot better'n playin' for these doofi:

[DS1]

39. Ever see the very very end of Shawn of the Dead?

Yeah, that's why

[WritingIsMyReligion]

40. Not made to do it.

Too much bullshit to put up with. I hate giving orders (especially fairly senseless ones) as much as I hate receiving them.

[Guava Jelly]

41. I would have to ban myself

:(

[Adsos Letter]

42. My "Moderator" influence could be easily purchased...

:D

[KamaAina]

43. Two words: Time change.

Ha ha! You can't get me! (unless I move back someday :scared; )

[sniffa]

49. i'm way too forgiving

and i swear, i must be bestest friends with the majority of DUers.

[philosophie_en_rose]

50. I am amused by innuendo and thongs.

:)

[RevolutionaryActs]

51. Lots of reasons.

Mostly because I don't have the time, and I'm lazy. :P

[Skittles]

54. I would kick everyone's ass

the temptation would be overwhelming

[KitchenWitch]

55. Three words: No Sex Threads!

:evilgrin:

[graywarrior]

56. I think everyone here knows the answer to that.

[BikeWriter]

58. I already run one political forum.

[rug]

59. The terms of my parole keep me off the internet.

[REP]

60. My Spleen.

[meegbear]

61. I'd look terrible in 1970's polyester dresses ...

[EstimatedProphet]

62. Don't have the time

For those who have not modded: it can take a helluva lot of time on some days.

[cobalt1999]

64. my threshold for fighting, sex threads, personal attacks is way too high.

In other words, there wouldn't be much of difference between me being a mod and there being no mods at all.
