ballzac Posted December 19, 2011 Just a heads up to let everyone know that I now co-moderate this forum with planthelper, so feel free to PM me if there are any problems and you feel a mod needs to step in. As you may or may not know, I am a big fan of the rules here, so I'm not going to hesitate to step in if I feel that a post or topic has crossed the line. At the same time, I will do my best to be fair and unbiased, and to avoid interfering when it's unnecessary. I feel quite honoured to have been offered a position as a moderator, and I take the responsibility very seriously. Probably the most commonly broken rule on these forums is the one about not incriminating yourself but, as has been stated many times before, almost anything can be expressed in a manner so as not to break this rule. So if everyone thinks before they post, I think a lot of moderator involvement can be avoided. Cheers, Ballzac 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alice Posted December 20, 2011 Good stuff Ballzac, I think you'll make a good mod. Torsten - Your new avatar is a bit... distracting, lol. I'm sure it will grow on me in time. Why did you change it? I'm surprised, your old one was so identifiable as you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why did you change it? I'm surprised, your old one was so identifiable as you. Lol I figured he was just testing because Twix said that animated gifs aren't working...but he hasn't changed it back It freaks me out 'cos I don't recall ever seeing him with an avatar other than his usual one.

Torsten Posted December 20, 2011 Torsten - Your new avatar is a bit... distracting, lol. I'm sure it will grow on me in time. Why did you change it? I'm surprised, your old one was so identifiable as you. That's funny, cos the animated raver was my avatar for at least a couple of years - before the woodrose. Something sad happened a few years ago which I posted about and someone pointed out that my dancing avatar detracted from the message. can't for the life of me remember what that was all about, but I do remember changing it as a result. I much prefer the raver, but there are two reasons I won't keep it. One is that someone else on an unrelated forum is also using it, and second because it is not mine. The bright pink woodrose was good because it was easy to recognise my posts when scrolling, but I want something new. Expect more changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Ballzac, i actually had visions of you becoming a Mod' long ago. I know you will be good in this role. Why thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
