How the heck did Sean Wold (AKA Touch O'Death) become a moderator here, have you guys gone completely insane? My coffee maker has more common sense.

Congrats Sean,

I think you would make a fine moderator. Does that mean no more games in the Arusai Bar & Grill now that you have a full time job? Gee all that wasted talent too....no, you will be a good moderator, probably add alot of common sense. God Bless You!

If we didn't have confidence in him, we wouldn't have asked him to join the team.

Sean's covering all three kenpo forums.

You'll notice several new faces on the staff...and more are coming.
And I have an announcement coming on June 1st.
Stay tuned. Same Bat Chanel. Same Bat WebSite. :)

(And yes...I am insane...see avatar for confirmation)
:rofl:

Thank you. I'm always stumped on the MA Scramble, but I intent to keep on playing. I'm probably not aloud to change the rules like we did on that one thread, however. %-}

If it makes it a better game, a change in rules is always welcome.

OH MY GAWD!

Why would you make this guy a Moderator? On an EPAK board no less. What is it that you're confident that he's gunna do? Sean is not a voice of reason, and not the pleasant devil's advocate he makes himself out to be. Sometimes he's just antagonistic. I think making him a moderator is a mistake.

:eek:

I thought you and Clyde would go into a tizzy about this, but if you stop and think about it, it is no longer my place to "antagonize" people. Before you quit in disgust... "again". Let's just see what happens. I could be the Kinder gentler Touch'O'Death. :wink1:
Now go take on the day.

Clyde, are you applying for the job? If you are, feel free to contact me.

TOD Congratulations

To the rest of you yes TOD and I have had our diiffrences i.e. the Psadena studio; !'m still right. Just Kiding; however, to be a moderator you don't have to know the EPAK system front to back. you just have to know the MT forum rules, which I think he has a very strong gripp on. look how many times he has stepped up to the line in the sand and pi$$ed all of us off but never violated the rules. I say we throw our full support behind TODD and let him run with it. Congratulations Sean and good luck.

What exactly is your place?


Quit in disgust? I quit the first time as a matter of principle. The owner of the board broke his word to me about something, and that was the reason I quit. This comment seems quite antagonistic to me.


Now go take on the Day? That seems a little condescending and dismissive. Just like you, eh? Lot's of change already.


Oh, well... I'm not going to change anyone's mind. I'm sure you'll eventually make that change yourself anyway.

"The trash heap has spoken.", is dismissive. "Now go take on the day.", was a Dr. Laura reference. I suppose we could bat insults to eachother; however, I won't let that happen. Peace brother :asian:
Sean.

PS I'll change my signiture.

That is never going to happen.
I thought Spry had changed his teaching regiment to an all Hawaian theam these days.

OK, then Grandmaster Adrian Chief Roman will be the next head of the IKKA, same thing as TOD becoming a mod here. There are some things you know just aren't right, and this is one of them. This is a definite new low for MT, getting close to Bullshido and whale dung.

Billy - I didn't break my word. I said I would look into that particular issue and discuss it with the staff. I did just that. Don't slight my honor. It may be tattered, but that wasn't an issue that did it.

Clyde - I've heard rumors that you actually know a great deal about kenpo. Maybe you can s-can the insults and show it a bit? Mike said if you want to discuss it contact him. Otherwise, got a problem? Offer a functional solution. Otherwise, if you don't like it here....

We didn't just draw names out of a hat. We've been discussing new staff since New Years (actually, before then even). Sean is an active member, who has earned the chance to share the headache by his actions. Yeah, there's been some heat. His actions over the time period we watched him said he deserved a chance. We're giving him that chance.

I've got room for up to 5 more mods in the kenpo area.

Y'all gonna whine like brats, or y'all gonna step up and earn your own chance at the ulser and hairloss?
