A Bit of a Modship Switcheroo

***Nate*** · #1 05-09-2008, 04:50 PM

After some behind-the-scenes discussion, the cabal that secretly runs the forums has decided to make a few changes. Off-Topic moderator Rexy has been too busy lately to visit the forums regularly. She has kindly stepped down from her position to make way for someone who is able to better fill out the modly duties.

To fill the gap, Bullet Magnet will be shifted over from Oddworld Discussion (which probably has too many mods as it is) to Off-Topic. I think we can all agree that BM is a well-respected OT contributor and will fill the position nicely.

Seeing as BM didn't really have an official Congratulations thread on becoming a mod, let me take this chance to welcome him to the mod team. Also, I want to thank Rexy for her time and hope that she still comes to visit us when she can.

BM's world devouring rampage begins now

.

Congratulations mate, and shame about Rexy

even though I never talked to her.

Strike Witch · #3 05-09-2008, 05:23 PM

Yay!

So whence come the day when the entire forum is Mods?

Splat · #4 05-09-2008, 05:32 PM

T'is a shame, Rexy was a good moderator.
Ah well, contraturation BM. May your time as Mod of the busiest and therefore toughest forum on the board be enjoyable.

Beware of the Spamvikings. (Gosh, I almost spelt that vykking)

ONO

LIFE IS WITHOUT MEANING

LIFE IS WITHOUT MERIT

anyway I haven't spoken to Rexy nor Rich (two UKing R's I can remember) for a long time.

Congrats!

The discision made alot of sence, and it had to be done.

***Wil*** · #7 05-10-2008, 06:33 AM

Nice to know that threads I create aren’t considered official.

mitsur · #8 05-10-2008, 04:18 PM

Well that's a shame, Rexy was a good lady to have around. But BM will surely do just as good as she did.

You didn't welcome BM, nor congratulate him.

Is tradition worth nothing?

Bullet Magnet · #10 05-10-2008, 07:17 PM

He announced that I was a mod. Short but sweet. It was highly informative.

***Wil*** · #11 05-11-2008, 02:39 AM

I both congratulated and welcomed BM with a hug. Or two; I forget precisely.

***Nate*** · #12 05-11-2008, 06:04 AM

Did you grab his testicles?

***Wil*** · #13 05-11-2008, 09:41 AM

No, and I wasn’t even in a public museum pushing over exhibits.

Oddey · #14 05-11-2008, 10:52 AM

Hmmm... Yes this decision makes sense. Oh and congratulations BM.

Yo mamma · #15 05-11-2008, 12:22 PM

Can you please translate the title to English.

BOOO!

Bullet Magnet STINKS!

Yeah, same with Ambi and Luke, though I doubt either of them would want to talk to me.

Also: Welcome to our new forum owner: Cloverfield!

***Wil*** · #21 05-13-2008, 01:36 PM

Oh holy fucking fuck, she actually did it.

Cloverfield...

skillyaslig · #22 05-15-2008, 02:17 AM

Well, I kinda like BM, maybe he won't abuse his power like some mods do...
Noes, only one female mod, and two guesses who? *shrugs*

Well, congrats, to the magnet for bullets, and thankies Rexy even though I didn't know you.

***Wil*** · #23 05-15-2008, 02:46 AM

You suggest BM won’t abuse his power, but I’ve never seen a member go from intelligent lucidity to maniacal esotericism so quickly.

Strike Witch · #24 05-15-2008, 04:04 AM

See, you should have picked me, and this never would have happened.

actually, I just like abusing italics

abe is now! · #25 05-15-2008, 11:43 AM

I have always thought Bullet Magnet could be a good moderator and now he isa mod. Congratulation BM!!! I have always seen you like a Oddworld Discussion's moderator... I hope in the future you'll be it.

Missed quite a lot ain!, BM's came seen and merged threads. Then he got moved to OT.

EDIT: I am a sleep deprived typo maniac, I can only assume BM will pick up on this point in the reply he is currently typing.

Bullet Magnet · #27 05-15-2008, 03:40 PM

My one act in OD, the effects will be far-reaching, and probably quantum. We will experience the consequences in our lifetimes, extending like ripples in the quantum pond, and they will be grand, the turning point for all humanity.

Or not. You never know with quantum.

THE MODERATING TEAM NO LONGER HAS ANY ODDWORLD RELATED NAMES
max the mug is literally a mug of the drinking kind
WHAT IS THIS, A FORUM BASED ENTIRELY ON THE OFF TOPIC FORUM?

I take my name from a fictional Mudokon...

In other news, it looks like it was a good idea to do the switcheroo, as we lost another OT Moderator yesterday.

Alcar...

Strike Witch · #30 05-16-2008, 03:39 AM

Wait, we did?

Whoot?
