Unfortunately for this board (and BigFooty as a whole) Sainter has found the demands of his real life too demanding to continue in his role as moderator.
I have great regard for Sainter and hope that he is rewarded properly by BigFooty for his many years of service. I also hope that he is treated with great respect by the Saints board posters when he returns here as a regular poster.
There are very few of us who remember what this board was like before Sainter was asked to help turn it around. It was a rabble. Posters from other clubs would come in here and simply rain scorn and disrespect on anything we said or did. Our club board was not worth visiting.
Years of good posts and hair-trigger moderating by Sainter has helped build this board into something worth visiting. Something to be proud of.
Along the way a number of really genuine people have stepped up and become regular posters and part of an on-line community.
I'm talking about you.
Sainter is a genuine type of bloke that attracted other posters of real character to this board.
Do you think you can fill Sainter's boots? Would you like to become a moderator of this board?
The BigFooty admin guys have left it up to Look2Me4Guidance and me to find a replacement.
Nominate yourself or someone you think would be a good moderator.
If you have been nominated by someone else, can you please advise us if you are willing to become a moderator.
Becoming a moderator is a fairly easy process, but there are a few drawbacks.
You do have to look in on the board fairly frequently.
You have to deal with whiny little turds from Collingwood or Fremantle who have posted junk which you deleted and you have to refrain from telling them what you really think.
You also get the awkward PMs from posters reacting to your warning or infraction notices.
And you lose some of your freedom to post in the manner you want to at times (although it sometimes hasn't stopped me)
