Well actually, you are wrong there. I DO need to be a mod. I need to be able to close threads (For when betting has ended), I need to be able to change thread icons (Once more for when the betting has ended), I need to be able to close threads (So that I can close Important: threads that I don't want anyone replying to), and I need to be able to post announcements (So that I can announce important stuff about the betting).
I am the assistant manager, and therefore need to be able to take things over when Mac isn't there. Surely it is possible to give me these powers but restrict them to just the OIPT sub forum or perhaps Oddlympics sub forum if we ever get one?
I seem to remember, that when I was a moderator for a special part of blizzforums, they had to give me special moderator abilities so that I couldn't do anything to anything unless it was in the place I moderated...
(This was mainly because me and the admins didn't really have the greatest of mutual understandings.)
So I am sure it is possible. I will send a PM to Abe Babe and also one to Alcar so that they can both understand my (and Mac's) position.
It would be a shame for Oddlympics to go down the pan now after we have had so many new ideas!
