What would you think if the mods we have today weren't mods at all? Would they still be tough as they are now or be regular member like us? Just think about this for a second.

-For instance:
Bigbadron: You see he has a sig with the so called "Banstick" on it. What other sig would he have if he wasn't mod? :)

I hope you guys get where I'm going with this. :/

I would torment the used-to-be mods because of their hardcore bans.

Example, bigbadron, I wish Tom demoted him, I wonder how he would feel.


Why do I still have a aura? I wish I could rub it and make it go away. Where's the option for "No Aura"?

Probably something similar to what he had before he was a mod?

I remember before FUNK, Maus, aviewaskewed, Proteas, JoS and SevenSeize were made mods; they were just as funny and friendly as they are now.

It would be like normal, except we wouldn't be able to ban users or lock/delete topics. We pretty much are normal users, except with some added responsibilities.

Bidbadron is trying to enforce the rules. If you don't like that, don't post on the BBS.

I said this because it was necessary, which is why im posting it knowing I will get flamed.

Such as protecting the world with super dinosaur robots from Rita Repulsa's monsters. Other than that, you're just a group of teenagers "with attitude".

What, you don't think I'm following the rules or something? Shit... I'll post on the BBS whenever I feel like it, in a good manner that is. :/

Or quite shit. :/

Worse. Way worse. Imagine you became a mod, you got the power of banning random users, then somebody takes it away.

I was a reg for 6 years prior to being a mod, became a mod, realised it was not as fun as it cut out to be, became a reg again.
And, all mods were once regs, well 95 percent were at least.

I saw most regs either go or get modded from my days.

And I just happened to be on the other side of the country working lately, so that explains my absence.

That is most definately the right answer.

You'd get all these idiots just running amuck without any kind of restrictions, and sure it may sound fun, but what would be fun about it? The fact that you could have porn in your sigs? You could make huge story threads nobody would read? All kinds of idiots would be running loose and personally I'd like them out of the BBS.

That's what the mods do.

Keep everything going smoothly.

Man, that would suck for me if I just became a mod and someone took that power away. But, there would have to be a reason though why they took it away. :/

What if regular members were mods?

It depends what members you are talking about. I would go with members that are non-popular since people would be sucking the popular guys dick off. :/

If the mods were regular users like us, things would be much different. For example, those kids that spam the Fat Mario Head would never get banned and the picture of Fat Mario Head would be in every topic ever made on the BBS.

I only moved back today, so no worries.
And I live on the Northshore. I just say Montreal to uh..make my life easier, since no one knows the south shore or north shore towns so well.

You are definitly correct about that. No mods = Terrible BBS. Shit would be flying everywhere here. :0
