Hi Canuck,
What bag do you mean?

Are you selling something ?

It's subtle, but I think that you might be right EPY.

daffodil · Post by **daffodil** » 11th Jul, '10, 09:11

You two are such cynics.

Surely, it's simply an attempt from a new member to share some information about about his / her hobby so we can get to know him / her a little better.

where are the moderators when you need them?

Oh an according to a PM it does come with a bag, how exciting I might wet myself!

I like the "wonderful gift" bit.

Anyone who gave me tupperware for a gift would get their teeth knocked out.....requiring a visit to the dentist (knew I could get it in there somehow!)

I thought it was a good effort - unlike most of the spammers, this one went to a bit of effort. It looked like a legitimate product too, and I learnt that it's possible to buy a $150 (?) T-----ware rice dispenser. I give them points for trying.

It did sit there for a while though. Are all the mods in the same time zone?

Speaking of which, just wondering if there's a policy on this, or other T&Cs when a new member signs up? Not that there needs to be.

em, I have no power here, only general forum and recipes

baloo · Post by **baloo** » 12th Jul, '10, 12:18

Ah, right, I thought it was in General.

let's change that

baloo · Post by **baloo** » 12th Jul, '10, 12:27

Sorted.

Any forum that doesn't have a named Moderator who has been appointed due to their expertise on the Topic is now moderated by the collective.

Ooh the power. Can you feel it Canuckety? Can you feel it?

I couldn't find the official collective noun for Moderators. A borg of Moderators ?

Jedi · Post by **Jedi** » 12th Jul, '10, 17:14

A hive of Moderators?

daffodil · Post by **daffodil** » 12th Jul, '10, 17:38

A bag of moderators, surely ?

Oh god absorbed by the Borg ! Oh the power, rampage! Just kidding

The Borg don't absorb, they assimilate.

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile."

I like the Borg.

There doesn't appear to be a collective noun for moderators - I suggest we have a competition, choose a winner, and see if we can get it formally recognised by the official collective nouns recognisers, for whom there is also no collective noun.

Is there a collective noun for collective nouns?

my vote goes to a borg of moderators...

That may, in some cases, lead to the excessive use of the word "bag" in one sentence when referring to some mods.

baloo · Post by **baloo** » 13th Jul, '10, 09:54

A patrol of Moderators

Morrolan · Post by **Morrolan** » 13th Jul, '10, 13:20
