I knew it! You say, "No." Max smiles, hands you a glass of Kool-Aid, next thing you know you wake up in a dark alley with a note from Reppy stating you're her bitch and suddenly your username is red.

Lol. I was a mod for a different forums. It's not awful. It just gives me something to do, especially since I'm bored most of the time. Problem is, I'd have to seriously draw back my behaviour and get less involved with people to moderate effectively so I didnt play favourites.

Diabolical. Good news for me, no one would ever pick me to be a mod. I will never have to drink that Kool-Aid.

I just want to make my dad proud. He named me Monitor, meaning one who admonishes and corrects wrongdoers, and I am trying to live up to the name.

I miss my dad... :(

He'd be proud of you. A ship of the line in the finest tradition. Long may you sail!

Meaning that, friend or not, I'd have to slap you with red text for breaking the rules. That can upset people who think of you as a friend. :P

It is hard, keeping your personal involvement in the forums separate from your moderating.

Luckily, apart from one official, red-box warning, I've almost never broken the rules. Now, if we're talking about straddling lines, lurking in gray areas, bending rules until they're nearly broken without actually breaking.... I may be a miscreant of the highest order, then.

It's isn't. That's how you wake up in a dark alley with Reppy hoisting a banhammer in an odd, yet enticing position.
