Cycling board Spec Mod EOI

[bigburger]

Quinz on the West Coast board is younger than me. (I'm 21). Hes a very good mod though and has been round these parts for many a long time. Seriously for a second have a think about modding for a second and how shit it actually is. You don't get any reward, hours of work and constant whinging from dick heads such as Mantis and Suzi. On top of all that for some reason when someones made a mod their opinions seem to cease as they take it upon themselves to set an example, which sucks. I don't think I'd ever sign up for that.

...Punters sending you long PMs and then not getting back to you when you take the time to reply to them...It’s a tough job...[sob, sob]

Its pretty bad being an ordinary poster at times. Super-Duper-Mod's constantly asking you for your opinion how to make them better mods .

Even superdupermods have gotta know what the ferals are thinking sometimes.

i nominate myself. I am on constantly..... i admit i have to post a bit than i dio on it and i have already seen a few other boards witthout mods and i see posts that should be carded......

Unless im too late.

p.s What is the difference between a superduper mod and a normal one

...We were kinda hoping that someone would pick up the chalice and run with it, but no one really has.

The board does not -need- a spec mod but it would be good if it had one. So we are (very obviously) in no rush.

A few people have said they would like to be a mod, but no one has really stood up and shown why they should be.

If someone were to take the initiative and contribute to the board in such a way to make themselves indispensable we would probably have no choice but to make them a spec mod.

I'm willing to give it a go still Weevil, if you're after someone.

Am on here everyday, and taken an interest in most sports (including cycling).

 

[Secular Bicep]

I don't want this to be back with the general sports category. I'll revamp this board with more cycling talk.

It's a quality and quantity thing and the emphases is on the quality.

Plenty of quality so far in terms of cycling talk as you would see on major cycling forums. Getting some discussion happening too.

You underestimate me, Weevil.

Granted though.

Behaviour in other places would also be taken into account.

Hey Weevil,

You guys still thinking of a Mod for the cycling board? I'd like to put my hand up, I fit the criteria (old, wise and actually ride competively). I think we might need one with the TDF coming up.

Cheers

Well i've created a thread that will hopefully gain alot of discussion, therfore helping to keep this board as one.

I reckon Cruiser23 would do a good job.

I dunno.......... I mean a Carlton supporter

Jks.... If we had to vote i'd also like to say my vote goes to him.

Must say this cycling board has some of the best behaved posters I have come across.
Usually during Le Tour there are some heated and educated discussions but rarely do people cross a line.
Cruiser certainly has the knowledge of the topic and the communication skills
Gets the nod from me!

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

I also back Cruiser. His updates during the Giro were awesome.

 

[r dub 19]

Yep also nominating Cruiser. I will pm weevil about this as the board is already getting a bit cluttered with numerous tour threads. Is everyone happy for me to say we(diehard cycling posters!) endorse Cruiser as a mod for this board?

 

[ballanFYNE]

yep!

 

[blue gunslinger]

well updates on paris-roubaix would have been nice

 

[footycool]

I wouldnt mind being the Mod

Love the cycling and have a fair knowlede. Dont post alot, but i am an avid reader of the Cycling board and bigfooty overall
