I volunteer myself. I actually modify things, and I wouldn't ban people who are actually bringing good things to the mac community. Like, people who actually hack and modify things, instead of just buy upgrades and then sell the system on ebay.

I'm also the reason that forum exists, so keep that in mind.

Yeah, ha-ha... Thanks... meh.

You've also been banned a hundred times or more, and won't stay banned... why the hell should you be a moderator? You show so well how you restrain yourself in other forums.
That would be like handing an alcoholic the keys to the liquer cabinet and saying, "Here, watch these bottles of top shelf booz...."

Hey, can I be a moderator too?

What kind of mods have you done? Should give your resumé when applying for something. Just be wary of the fact that you do have a ... notorious reputation on the forum.

Hey, can I start a new forum? Call it the "Banned Forum" and I'll be the moderator because I started it...

Wait..... never mind.

Actually, that is a BRILLIANT idea. A sort of OUTCAST forum. The only forum where all the banned people can post. A real wild place. No rules, nothing. Just crap 24/7. OMG !

I know... but how on earth will I get the privaledge to ban in that forum as it's moderator? Hence the ...

"Wait... never mind"..

Hey, but I can start it! You'd have to be a real loser to be banned from the "Banned Forum"...

Budster for Mod mod.

You'd probably want a moderator for the "Mods" forum who doesn't mod him/herself so pick me... I will have no biases against anyone in there. Complete impartiality. Vote for Budster101 at your nearest ballot box.

I had the most modified 1st gen iMac in the world. Still do actually. It even lights up. My quicksilver is coming along okay, but I need to get back to madison to grab my allen wrenches before I can really start doing anything creative.

Who did they ban and why?

I popped into that forum and it seems pretty quiet.

So, they need someone like Ca$h to heat it up then? I guess he's never been there before but he is the reason it exists. (Megalomaniac).

? Maybe I don't get it ?

I think he read "Mod's forum" as "Moderator's forum" rather than mentally removing the apostrophe.

As a side note, I totally want to see Ca$h as a mod. That would be the freakiest **** ever.

Heh... You're an interesting fellow Ca$h.

How do you think I came to the point where I am able to answer practically any hardware related question asked in any of the hardware forums? Just because I don't create a new thread everytime something new pops into my head like Link and you do doesn't mean I'm not busy on my end.

And volunteering yourself to become a moderator is laughable. You filled your G4 with lights, you ruined it. Good for you. But your hardware knowledge is very basic, and it is reflected in the types of mods that you make and the questions that you ask.

When you move beyond covering things in lights and glueing copper to video cards, oh... and stop trolling, then I might actually start caring about what you have to say. Until then, you're just a flashy troll.

Furthermore, there's no reason for us to expect that someone who can't follow the rules will actually enforce them.

And starting out the request by poo-pooing a moderator isn't a good way to get in their good graces.
