Rule with the same authority that I did on the Mole Boards? But that would be a dictatorship...

But actually, there are several of us, so would that make this an oligarchy? Unless we're good leaders, which would make this an aristocracy. No, we're certainly not good!

And I agree with you on your "buying everyone off" premise. Xhan is giving moderatorship to anyone who he believes likely to pose a challenge to the Town Hall in the future by creating their own boards. The Top Crusader has the skills and the time. You have the skills, sometimes have the time and have done it before. I don't have any skills, but I'm a threat to do it, as I've done that hideous act of creating an alternative message board once before.

Thus, moderatorship. Instilling loyalty.

If Hawkeye's message board takes off (I don't mean to be rude, Hawkeye, but I don't think that it will), he'll be next in line for moderatorship. Understand how this works yet?

At the rate he's going, every current member will be a moderator in slightly over four years, the moderatorship proceeding at a rate of one awarded per thirteen days.

This could end up a confusing place!

Hehe....

Well, I don't expect my message board to become popular except for random acts of pointless posting.....

And I don't think that will frighten Xhan too much....

But Jared, I'll continue my monthly payments to you to boost my post numbers Wink

AHA! So that's the trick! I think I'm going to start designing my own message board. Twisted Evil

Actually, it would be a very, very fun and interesting place if all of us were moderators! Very Happy Just think about it! Post numbers would be constantly in jepordy, threads would be disapearing and re-apearing so fast, that it looks like it's made to be blinking...Half of us would suddenly be banned for no reason....Wow, this place would be crazy!

Uhh, Dr Blackgaard, now that you mention it, ... NO!

Then it would be nothing but a huge digital worldwide fight....
