Problem Users - No discussion...we just locked them in a closet, taking them out only to put them in burlap sacks and beat them with toy lightsabers.

Next time invite me

 

"Next Week's Update - brought to you by...Errant_Venture!"

I'll expect a whole lot of screwed up markups

 

Your web skills do you proud JMT, the most beautiful update I've ever seen

Good update jedi-mind-trick.

Mystery Mod - Discussion is still ongoing regarding a new moderator for the Star Wars Community Forum.

Surely there are a good few candidates within the community there? Anyway I hope this gets sorted out soon.

Bad News: Spike_Spiegel has officially stepped down as a Saga Forum mod in order to concentrate on his Fan Force duties.

What is it with mods? First Obi-Anne now Spike *scratches head*
Sad to hear Spike, from my lurking of the Saga forum you've been doing a grand job, you will be missed.

 

The JC Staff Page @ TF.n - Has been revamped and updated. Many thanks to dp4m for all of his hard work.

No pictures a la lobotomy.stinkingfart?

 

It may be sad but some of them I think just want to be fans and not so much mods any more. Also when RL starts getting in the way it makes thing even harder.

When do think they'll decide? Just curious.

Damned straight, he did a great job in there.

Yeah I know, which is why its sad to lose such great Mods such as Obi-Anne and Spike from the SWC and Saga forums

Yeah,I agree.I don't know Spike myself,but I'm sure he was a good mod for saga.

 

I didnt really know him either, but still you learn to watch out for certain mods around here, especially if they get a good reputation. And Spike from what I know had one of those.

So whats the situation with the Saga forum?
Will anyone be drafted into take his place?

I really couldn't speculate. I'm sorry for such a lousy answer here, but I honestly do not have a clue when that will be decided.

Dagsy should be the one to answer this question, as he is the lead mod in Saga.

EDIT - *smacks forehead* ENGLISH, JMT.....speak ENGLISH!

That's ok.No problem.

Thanks for the honesty.
Anyway would it be worth any of the regulars of the SWC putting forward their own nominations?

 

Always great to see new things for Fan Fiction.

 

No need for a new Saga mod at the moment.

I'm here as much as ever, and the forum isnt so fast paced or full of difficult posters, that I need to promote anyone in the near future.

If any of the above circumstances change that would require a new mod in the forum, then I'll certainly be looking at the options available.

 

Okey Dokey Dagsy

Just keep up the work in there.

 

You forgot that ST-TPM-ASF-TNE was demoted (probably temperorarily) because he has not logged in since 11/28.

That happened since the update was made up.

 

That happened since the update was made up.

That would explain it then.

 

So, if ST-TPM-ASF-TNE was demoted (even if only temporarily), and Windy and Quix are on vacation for a while... who exactly is watching over the AOTC forum?

I'd make a suggestion, but I wasn't listened to the last time, so it'd be a waste of my time.

 

Sape will be.

 

And when Sape is gone? He's usually never online during evenings or weekends. Plus he's 3SA mod and head admin, that takes a lot of time.

Obviously a link could be sent to another mod (most likely movie forum), but someone should be watching it a lot of the time.




P.S. just promote Adam and that will solve the problem.

 

Can't strilo help out in this situation?
