A shout out to the Mods - I'm very impressed. You are doing a great job!   Updated at 5:30 PM
   
Early this morning, shortly after it was announced Teddy had died, a few of us made some OP's, and when I clicked on Hissyspit's seconds after he posted the photos, a shortly worded hateful post was there - and literally it was removed within minutes by the wonderful moderator 'on duty' - so fast that even Hissyspit missed it I think. (he didn't miss much, just the standard hate speech, yawn)

The quick-draw work you Mods do on behalf of the site is great - and you are to be commended when big events happen and you do that voodoo that you do so well!

Thank you so very much.
Kiss some ass time at the DUmp.

I think the deal is three mod suckups entitle the bearer to one post up to a half millimeter away from the official commusocialist line, without being tombstoned.

I've mentioned it before, but it bears repeating.

I've never seen a message board where the members completely suck up to the mods like the DUmp. I mean, I mod a couple of boards myself, and I appreciate the help that people do (including here, of course).   But to so gratuitously polish the DU mods' knobs on a constant basis is pathetic.  And it indicates a greater psychosis on the DUmmy's collective parts.

Yeah, you're telling me, sir.

This moderator has two members ignoring him.

I dunno why; I'm a nice guy, one of the nicest guys one can hope to meet.

I didn't know mods could be ignored most software like this doesn't allow mods to go on ignore.

If the suckup is sucky enough it serves to endear the sucker to at least one Mod who can then prevent a granite cookie even if all the other Mods want to vote it off the Island.

This software allows one to ignore moderators outside of the moderators' own forums.

But in an ignored moderator's own forum, the ignorer is out of luck.

Attention moles, don't overdo the sucking-up, the real, well-established sycophants hate the competition and will start investigating you.

I really, really don't understand why anybody would put Frank on ignore.  It's only irritating people who one would ignore.

Well it's their loss anyway. My money is on it being people who don't even post here anymore.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I do find it annoying that he starts writing a nice story, and then ends that post with "to be continued", but I got over that by waiting to read them until he finished the whole story. That way I can read them straight through.
