How much? Ima buy this board and turn it into the Janfest it was always destined to be. 

That may finally be stupid enough for me to leave.

Maybe it was just Scott, thought you were aggressively coming at me because I kept changing my name to variations of Matt Skiba sucks but it could have just been Scott.

Yeah definitely wasn’t me. I might’ve given ya shit for whinging about Skiba but def not about changing ya username. I’ve seen Scott complain about not knowing who anyone is cause of name changes so could’ve been him. I like the name changes actually. Sometimes they’re funny.

I think it's dumb that Anal Destroyers doesn't exist here anymore. That should be the board status symbol, not moderator. A reformed AD would be great

I think an AD “section” would be useless these days. Free For All is quiet enough without giving the main people that keep posting there somewhere else to post.

Doing other stuff to show a status symbol like a special username colour, titles under the username and like a Pm group or something if pranks and shit were to come back. I could get behind that.

All of that sound stupid af. Why would you need a PM group when we’re like ten persons on this board? Just keep it in the threads

I don’t think it’s necessary either was just throwing out alternatives to what it used to be like.
 

I don’t know if you were around when AD was all Those years ago but outside of the shit talking threads the other stuff they did was kinda fun even to just an observer. If Ghent wants to pay homage to that and give the posters who’ve been here for 15+ years a little status then I got no probs with that.

If there was a reformed version it would have to be more than a private group. If I had a good idea I’d be all over it

Guys it's a waste of time, we're not doing it.

The place is half dead as it is, a PM group would just kill it further. But I mean, it’s not my call and my newbie ass wouldn’t be invited to it either so my opinion on this doesn’t matter anyways. But just saying ?‍♂️

You're invited to my club, fuck these nerds.

It’s not a pm group to replace posting on the boards but just for the particular things that group would deal with which could include surprises/pranks/fun shit for the boards that would need to be discussed in private.

I don’t know what the fuck Ghent meant when he said that I just threw out an idea that would better suit the boards of today rather then what it was like years ago. He may be happy with just a title under people’s name I don’t know. It was just a suggestion.

It was supposed to be longer but I ran out of characters to use! Besides, it's not a game of quality, Jan.

someone so obsessed with being a mod, probably isn't a good choice for a mod.

as someone who is an admin of things in other internet places this is 100% true. it is a duty that should be thrust upon someone, not a merit badge to be awarded.

Like, maybe that person would edit other people's accounts, sabotage ratings on an app a member had made, text someone's girlfriend and blame it on another member, ban someone and photoshop text messages claiming they threatened them, send users a buttplug with an ex users face on it, single out members to bully until they leave ... that kind of stuff? Yeah, that could definitely be bad ... we don't want those kind of people in charge here ...

I was a mod on here but I think I dropped acid and realized it had no gain to my life. If you want to become a mod on a Blink 182 message board, for reasons that can only be described as "prestige", then you might want to go Kurt Cobain yourself

Courtney Love doesn't even know who I am, I doubt she'd murder me and frame it as a suicide!

Also, it's not prestige, I couldn't care less what the masses thought. I love this place and I see it as being a part of something that I enjoy, rather than just another user. It isn't power, it isn't respect, it isn't anything like that. If I wanted power and respect, a dying medium wouldn't be how I go about getting it. I already own a message board and I'm starting another with Oliver. There's no glamor or power in any of it, there's no intrinsic value to be had. It's a community of armchair lords picking on each other. Yes, I'd like my title back but admittedly, it's silly and only important to me.
