I like it that he argues and speaks his mind, even if I think he's bloody wrong sometimes for choosing to do what he does.
In the past I was a moderator and at the same time a member.
If I appeared hypocritical it was probably because I had the mod hat on and the contrast would have been the posts made as a member...non of which were worthy of an infraction, or a ban.
As for not being "cuddly", then that would be because I was dealing with a member who wasn't exactly "cuddly" to begin with.
I argue less than you imagine. In fact I'd say I don't argue at all.
If you've seen me in a conflict with another member, then it would be as a mod dealing with someone who was abusing their right to be here.
I never chose to do what I did. Like the other mods, I was chosen to do it.
And I happen to think I did a good job.

And I'm NEVER bloody wrong!

You did the BEST job. The rest of us mods should aspire to such greatness.

You were the top mod when I got here, I don't think there's anyone here that would question about that.

that's fair, if i come across as harsh it's because i see potential that is being ignored. your attitude and tastes line up quite closely to a good friend of mine from our college days back in the 'chi. i've had to be harsh on him in the past too for his attitude towards personal tastes and preferences as well

besides, you like BoC and Amon Tobin. there is no wrong to be righted here.

Second that.

RT was the king of MB, he protected us from spammers and corey allen2's.

^^ I am definitely in agreement. RT was one of the best IMO.

right-track was one of the first people who welcomed me when I first joined, and even if it was nothing extraordinary, it made me feel accepted in a way. I thank him for that.

I can't say I know too much about his actions as a mod, but he seemed like he kept it all together, was pretty much addicted to keeping this place in order and still continued posting and having a laugh with the other members like a true regular.

Right-Track was one of the first to welcome me as well. He's probably one of the most genuine, sincere and witty people I've ever met (closely followed by Jackhammer). Oh, and he introduced me to WinRar which is probably the best thing that's ever happened to me so I am forever indebted. There's a reason he's called the Modfather.

I'm pretty sure you just want more of us to write about how awesome you are.
