Is edesignuk getting soft/ Or is it a good thing that I am not a Mini Mod?

edesignuk was much kinder than I would have been.

 

[edesignuk]

The guy/gal is not a newb that just came here to spam, so we let them off once.

But if they do it again then...

 

[Blue Velvet]

He's had 'behaviour modification'.

They fitted him with a new mid-plane and he's now playing nicely with all the peripherals.



We still love him...

 

[emw]

Curiously, it's ever since Keira started winking.

Hmmm...

[brown-nosing]Seriously though, with great power comes great responsibility. I am impressed with the restraint e has been showing, and think he's doing fine.[/brown-nosing]

 

[Savage Henry]

Do you know, since his enthronement as mini mod I thought we'd see rather a lot less of the Ban Hamster as the new responsibilities may infer a more mature approach to thread respondance. I for one salute the little bleeder each time he appears; I just now only wish them storm troopers pop in every once in a while...

Gord bless ya, guvnor for bringin' the ol' fella back again.

And in mvho to the question at hand ... nah, I think he's still firing with the same number of barrels he's always had.

[brown-nosing]...[/brown-nosing]

See, when you add the "[brown-nosing]" brackets, it makes you seem insincere.

Which is unnecessary, really, because e is, without any doubt, one of the best mods I've ever seen on this forum - he's in the top ten, period, and I challenge anyone to dispute that.

...because e is, without any doubt, one of the best mods I've ever seen on this forum...

Or any other forum -- let's be honest.

 

[edesignuk]

Please stop, I'm not gonna be able to fit my head through the door in the morning

 

[vniow]

Eh. You're still a wanker.

Head smaller now?

 

[Hoef]

He became more "charitable" after his newly acquired fame (happens to most of us, e.g. Bill Gates etc...)

 

[edesignuk]

Eh. You're still a wanker.

Head smaller now?

Much better, thank you

I knew I could rely on you for that little crash back down to earth

How many mods?

I was gonna point that out, but I thought I'd wait and see if anyone noticed what you were doing

 

[jsw]

Or any other forum -- let's be honest.

There are other forums?

 

[edesignuk]

There are other forums?

Other forums!?!

...where'd I put that ban hamster...

Well, I was sort of worried that the Mini might not have the horsepower to haul around that ego myself.

Ummmmm... you do realize that the original thread was a joke. Not a very good joke but a joke nonetheless. Not exactly spam, anyway. I think the Web address "http://www.pyramidscheme.com/?r=heyguysspammymailbox" was supposed to clue you in.

Edesignuk also edited all the links so the spammer doesn't benefit from the crap they unloaded on this site.

Heck, we've also got some spam from outright frauds designed to steal your money.

So they usually get edited or deleted.

Edesignuk also made the guy look a bit more foolish than usual.

No. That was changed by edesignuk within seconds of being wastelanded -- I saw the original post before it was trashed... it seems to be a general policy to mess with the links but that's the first time I've seen that spoof URL...

*sigh*
I spend way too much time on here...

 

[Mr. Anderson]

There actually is another one

and as for being kinder to the spammers - its a job requirement. Quite simple actually.

[Lacero]

Can I be a mod? I want to be known as a Mod Shuffle.

 

[Blue Velvet]

There actually is another one

Ooo -- just like Yoda says in the swamp...

I know. But I'd written "ten" thinking I had it right before verifying. Close... or maybe I think of e as definitely being better than one of the others.
