Yeah. Good pick up. A conspicuous absentee. Anyone know?

saintsRrising · Thu 09 Sep 2010 9:37pm

I don't know the details...but he seemed to have a posting melt-down one day with some weird stuff posted...

...and is no longer a mod.

Have not seen him post since.

That's right. That day...

Pity someone else on here with all their sarcastic opinions would not have a melt down ... !!

He was a regular poster about 4 or 5 years ago.
Then he disappeared for a couple of years, I presume because he had some health issues which he overcame.
Then came back as a regular poster.
Now he seems to be gone again

Hopefully his health is OK and he will be back as, unlike some serial posters, he is a good contibutor.

I've had some conversation with him (via pm) over the preize he won in the Sponsorship Raffle.

he's ok and just having a break from here.

He still makes a few short posts a couple of times a week.

I can tell you that he is in another place now and very happy. He hasn't melted down. You may well bump in to him some day, somewhere.

It's about three hours south of here. Through the Goddard tunnel. But you're probably not starting from here.

You might be right matrix, but in his short stint here he seemed to be a 'lone hand' (except for dcstkfc and battye to a lesser extent) in being a 'visible' mod.
Without his input as a mod the forum seemed to be almost 'rudderless' during that time.

Only since his demise have we started seeing input from HSVKing and evertonfc - still nothing from Armoooo and nick (away overseas I believe?).

Given that we lost 3 mods a couple of months ago and Milan and dcstkfc were replacements for them, we still appear to be 'light on' in terms of visibly active mods.

Whats the point of having mods?

Have you noticed the less the mods around the less people bag each other out?

People bag each other cause they are told they shouldnt do it, without being told and not getting a reaction people dont do it... as long as there are people that keep an eye on pesonal attacks that are unwarranted then this site should be fine...

Let it rest, guys.

Don't we have a footy team to talk about?

DISCLAIMER: the following is on Mods and not on Milan.

I think if you look at various forums that good Mods are largely invisible in their "Moderating".

They are active as required (and this is vital)...but they don't make the mistake of engaging in the threads.

Just a quick thread closed, and maybe why.... deleting spam etc....but not lecturing in thread.

Any direction by a Mod is best done IMO between the Mod and the poster.

And Mods should, not as a Mod, be praising or criticising posts.

Cheers

He is Kevin Rudd.

Expect him to be back as Mod again when all settles down

Milan?
