A cunning way of preventing hurt feelings and wounded pride. No-one is actually 'rejected' as such... just held in case. Clever and effective.

I think HECK would be a good moderator. He is willing to tell you off straight to your face and moderators have to do that a lot. So he fits the description
Did I apply? No, I've only been here since November, and my posts are way down. I'm not made of 'the right stuff', as they say.

'Live it down'? Meaning, would you survive it? If that is the meaning, I am sure you will, as long as you don't forget the site for more than 2 or 3 days.

You weren't in the wrong, I was. I shouldn't have snapped and bitten your head off (metaphorically speaking). It was just a comment that you made, whereas I was horrid and mean.

Well, not really. I was wrong too, for I assumed that you had gone over each and every post of the thread. And that also didn't permit me to use that condescending tone. As for snapping, it was civilized. Believe me, I have seen worse.

Oh you are tough. I am sure you can handle idiots like those. Anyway, I think we should get back on topic about the future moderators. Everybody, I vote for Neodammerung too, whether she wants to be a mod or not.

I endorse the nominations of Adityamahesh and The Rebel.
