Fair enough!

I'd like to see specialist moderators leading each of the sub-forums
with you as overseer for the whole Off Topic section
including all of the sub-forums
if that's OK with you?

A music fan for the Music forum,
a sports fan for Sports
and so on.

I'd love to see Twichaldinho and/or CannaSir take on Politricks.
Either or both of you guys up for it?
It's not technical.
You get a few more buttons to play with
but it's mostly about posting as you do anyway.

Lem, if it relaxes yer mind, i'll be a mod......most folk here need no moderation, sounds like the kind of responsability I can handle....... I crave the power to merge topics though.....nothing more annoying than three or four threads that cover the same topic. :lol:

Yeah thats cool, can I recommend Balou as a mod for something, he's a top member and has always come across as level headed, Twitch could also do the music section as we all know he has a very eclectic taste, Pengaldinho for sport maybe? he loves his footie, I'll have a think about some others.

Twichaldinho as a mod?? Bad idea...mods need to be level-headed and not hold grudges against people. On more than one occassion this guy had told me to fuck off.

I agree with Boner's recommendation of Balou. Much respect to the Texan.

Just to be clear, is this a thread discussing the possible creation of new subsections or is it actually "Controversy corner"?

Another option for sport could be Cantona, he's pretty much down with all the sports that gets talked about.
