LOL pastrychef geeze. I'd hate to see you run a country, it would be a dictatorship. Just you even suggesting that as a new rule makes everything even worse & the future bland for this forum.
Sorry but YES it absolutely makes a difference with you being a moderator, let me repeat, you have 11,000 posts, how doesn't this make a difference??
If I was a moderator well I think I'd have more than my measly 5 or so posts, but I'm not. I work long hours, not much spare time, I just want to get straight to the business.
Let me also repeat, the thread I'm interested in is CLOSED, locked, so I can't private message, I can't post in that thread, what options are left?
