He posts occasionally, and has a look in every now and then; basically, he liked the old days more when 'we' used to convert more things and make great projects. These days you can buy rtr BL vehciles that even a noob can manage to setup and operate, so its not quite the same, no more epic builds, conversions or cludging together of random parts into a functioning truck or 'uggy.

He was definately a great mod, scarey, but fair- like a headmaster sort of...

the lack of nazi trx like moderators and the fact that Brian and Chris just moderate without throwing their egos around make RCM awesome.

I don't think we need more mods. I'll re-read the thread, but it just seems like a pissing match to me.:yes:

Ok first off, just cause you only see post from 2 moderators on a hourly basis, doesn't mean that we don't get on here. I get on here several times a day. Granted, Brian or Arct1k usually beat me to the reported post and such, it doesn't mean I don't know about them. The second somebody reports a post or whatnot, I get a e-mail about it, along with all the other mods. Ya'll need to realize that you don't see ALOT of the things that get deleted, edited, etc. I see the remains of it ALL and its alot more than you realize.

So if you wanna see some moderation, I'll give you 10 minutes to see this, then it'll be like it never existed. :mdr:

Hey squee, when did you get elected to mod status? I must have missed that one.......Have you been a mod for long?

Who the heck is this guy, never seen him before?... :whistle:

I do apprecitate what you're saying, and the work you do, but, Im highly frustrated at the moment because of just one or two 'members' with an attitude problem.

I've been a mod for 4-5 years now....:no:

As a matter of fact, Mike made me a mod at the same time as Leroy (coolhandcounty).


Neil, PM me about it. I think I know who your talking about.

PM sent. :)

Lets get back to normal business. :yes:

Ah yes, life does happen. Sometimes things just get in the way of RC car forum viewing time, like real car forum viewing :angel:, school, social, athletics, work, etc.

Rest assured that a lack of posting doesn't mean a lack of moderation :yes:

I would not be against having an additional 1 or two carefully selected members appointed as moderators. I know why this subject has come up and I know I played right into it and that I shouldn't have.

Sorry, Neil, my prototyping budget has been low lately. :cry:

If I may ?
I think BrianG,Sqee & Artic do a dam fine job, but they can't be everywhere 24/7.

If Neil was on the list for a additional mod position he'd be one of the guys I'd vote for.
The Ax will fall swiftly.

Can I vote to get rid of the diablo smilie, I seen that dam thing to many times today to want to see it again..

There really isn't voting for a mod. Mike selects them and thats that. I'm sure he would take it under consideration, but I don't really think its necessary to have any more. I think the problem is people don't PM a moderator to let them know something is going on. A few will report a post here and there, but thats it. Even then, the ones that get reported are only the penis enlargement post...

Not sure I would be great mod material, but thanks for the vote Neil! I doubt you would do a bad job, but your dry wit may get misunderstood from time to time. I get it, but not everyone is on our level (cough harold cough).

Plus i have been busy recently with the new house (need to get some pics on here) and am waiting on the damn hot summer to retreat in my a/c rc cave to build the beasts i have been dreaming up and gatering parts for.

I understand Bro, I kinda doubt another would be added anyway due to you gentlemen doing the fine job you do. I did say "IF".
Maybe we should all contribute a little more to help you gentlemen then ?
