    Who moderates this Chit-Chat forum?

    It says plenderj does, but it apears that MartinLiss does a lot more moderating that plenderj does. Perhaps the forum moderation sig should be changed to MartinLiss instead of plenderj, or both.

    I only say this because I got a PM from Martin about somethin I said in the Chit-Chat forums a few days ago (which I agree was inapropriate, but seemed to fit the moment) that was directed towards a certain very annoying chit chat member. It basically said, "I have deleted a post you made and I don't want to see anything like that again".

    Now, I am not sure if plenederj would have let that post go or not, but it does seem Mr. Liss has a much tighter reign on things in the Chit Chat forum.

    Yes, yes I agree Arc, make Pc Chit Chat Mod!

    Jamie's a supermod, and Martins an admin, so it really doesn't matter if their name is in the moderators list (on the frontpage) or not.

    Marty's the strictest of the bunch, abit of good cop, bad cop going on I think.

    A Moderator is in charge of specific forums, while a Super mod can do all of them.

    Super Mods can do everything except ban people.

    So the oracles of yore told me.

    No, they can do everything except change the forum layout. I do believe... but it may well be customizable.

    Arc, are you in the US?

    If so that is probably the reason you see Martin more than Jamie. Jamie will be out on the piss whenever you are online.

    I'm on GMT time - so I'm online from about 08:30AM GMT. I also work full-time whereas Martin has recently retired and would have more time than I.

    I am also a lot less strict than Martin. Bear in mind, quite some times ago, Martin actually banned me
    Martin and I both used to be Admins, but then we were both demoted to SuperMods after JupiterMedia took over.

    Martin was since promoted I suppose. I dunno, I only noticed that a few months ago.


    SuperMods can ban people and I have done so. But I can no longer change the layout of the board, change important board settings, ban by IP address or e-mail address, turn off the board, backup the board or do any maintenance type stuff.

    And Slaine and Wally're right - I'm probably out on the piss while the Americans are online, and still out on the piss when I'm supposed to be working here

    Taking a piss of course! (Not to be confused with taking the piss)

    P.S. Where can i find the track "winamp not loaded"? It must be good or plenderj wouldn't listen to it so much.

    Are you claiming that your answer is the answer to an answer-less question?
