The taco / burrito place down the block from me finally reopened but they close at 7 pm now. For five nights straight I've suddenly gotten the idea to go get a burrito and then have looked at the clock to find it's 7:05. :(

well if you didn't get it, i lost. big surprise there.
There is much to be said about posting what you want, where you want - within reason - and with minimal accountability.

i have no idea what that means.
1. posting what you want - e.g., curse words, off-topic (hijacking), etc. are ok
2. where you want - e.g., not going into certain sub-forums like mech mods, DIY juice, etc. is ok
3. within reason - not attacking people, no porn, etc.
4. minimal accountability - if you follow #3, you pretty much do what you want.

If you're a moderator, #2 is less of an option ... you're supposed to go into all of the sub-forums to make sure everyone is playing nicely in those sandboxes. There's probably more "fine print" stuff involved, but the above covers the basics I think.

Ok, just know that a lot of the food places downtown close really early as business slows down so much at night. Real pain when you are in town for a convention or training or something because your choices get limited to more expensive restaurants.

I was only making a point that it's probably - in my personal opinion - more fun to be a general member here than to be a moderator. That was all.
oh ok. still think you would be a good one tho.

I just confirmed with Huckleberried that she hasn't been contacted by "up high" to be a moderator. :(

That's true, especially on a Sunday I would imagine. But no, I live about three miles west of downtown. The taco place use to stay open until 10 pm then it got closed down (hopefully not for cockroaches or something) but now it's reopened and only stays open until 7. Bummer since it's a hop skip and a jump from my front door.

bet it was that friar guy. and he is not available.
He is the obvious choice. But why do I think it's someone much less "obvious?" Votes for Zamazam also made sense.

We should have an ECF day once a year where the meanest people here get mod privileges for 24 hours.
ummm ... to "cleanse" the membership here, you mean? :p

If you want an ECF day then I say go to ECF for the day.
I don't care to have that here myself.
Lol, I was just joshing. Like it would ever happen. Might make for a good gag in a book though, some psychos hack into the forum and start terrorizing everyone using the names and avatars of ECF mods.
