Let's be real here, what else could it have been? Other than "Small Bart", "Permabanned user Seraph84" or some variant of "Breaking the rules with an X-Shaped thread!"

This has nothing to do with anything, but why does the gas chamber have a mod? I wouldn't think anything of it, but it looks like the goldmine doesn't have one at all. That's just bad feng-shui; there's no mod of good and generally metaphorical poo poo to balance out the mod of bad and occasionally literal poo poo.

Probably to have the power to edit out things like personal info and other untoward things that might get shunted in there before another mod can correct it

For a little game, cycle through the forumids, and see how many forums that don't officially exist have mods.

There are blue stars on this site who's entire responsibility is for forums people literally can't post in, and yet the mod forums still haven't been leaked

The mod forums have been 'leaked' a few times, the most notable one I can remember is the tcc mod that was mocked off the site for suggesting lsd for everyone with a problem. He leaked a bit on an offsite but said the mod forums were mostly boring. That is probably why there are no leaks, they are mostly boring.

Yes yes, I think we have all heard how boring they are, and at this point demanding to see them is more of a meme than anything anyone expects to happen or be worthwhile.

They are more interesting than they say tho, just from scraps that have been mentioned during adjacent drama where a mod will mention discussion on a topic that was happening. I'd say interesting the same way watching c-span is interesting. Its really really really boring, but 1 in 10000 posts would make a thread full of historians perk up

I've seen multiple accidental autobans for OPs about barbecue or spicy food, and it delights me every time.

I'm glad someone managed to snatch the 25,000th ban from Seraph when he was in the middle of a wild spree fishing for it, honestly. That honor deserves someone better than that.

I did this like a year and a half ago when I was making a thread for a wow guild at 3 am and asked one of the officers what I should make the thread tag and he said HOT! so I did.

I'm looking for an old thread, where the point was to write erotic fanfiction depicting SA mods or users. I specifically remember one featuring Ozma and Porklift. Paraphrasing:

quote:

Porklift slams Ozma against the nearest wall, kissing her hungrily. He wraps her legs around his waist, “They don’t call me Porklift for nothing.”

Every time I almost go "well, it's an understandable mistake to make" I look at the incredibly noticeable left side of the reply/post page where it plainly states to not use three specific tags and go back to wondering how people still do it by accident.
