...but why are they blue when Mas is green?  Edit:  O.k, nevermind that, it's at the botton of the forum home.  But then what is the difference between a forum Mod and a Slinging.org Mod?

A few extra powers. I can do what they do plus I can delete people, mess with a few forum settings, and.. erm, change the color of people's stars (C_A set them up with green stars and purple names)... while kid and Mauro can just move and delete posts. C_A and Chris can do what I do, plus a lot more with the forum settings and software. One some sites, forum mods are limited to one board (like Other Primitive Weapons) while a site mod can edit in any board.

That's exactly what I had in mind when talking about more powers to members.

The most beautiful thing is, that I had my computer back today - it was broken and I was using an old Pentium II during the last 2 weeks  Shocked

I'm going to destroy any spammer with my powerful 60ton T-34 now  Cool

you know I thought the colours had changed.
Was pretty sure I'd gone for purple, but colours arent my thing so just figured I'd hit the wrong button or just picked a bluey coloured purple  Grin

But yep mas pretty much covered it.

We don't need any more people to delete spam usernames. It's the actual deleting of the individual spam posts that is so time consuming.
And I liked mauro and xxxxxxxxxxkids idea - so there you have it Smiley

Hopefully going to update forum software sometime soon which should help no end.

But in the meantime - if all it does is save me about 15 spam report pms a day from mauro and xkid - I'll be a happy bunny  Wink

Grin I remember you saying something similar about how my pms were annoying. Now we have proof, get on C_A's nerves and he makes you a mod.
