As some of you have already spotted, we have recently appointed Dadaist as a fourth moderator. This was a unaminous decision and we are pleased that he has accepted our offer to join the team.

A bug is currently preventing us from altering Dada's permissions but I'm sure wangi will be able to sort this out on his return.

We must have missed the puff of white smoke from the chimney above Moderator Mansion yesterday.

It's all very well appointing Dada as a moderator but who's going to stir the proverbial around here now.

I'm going to subvert from within.

Yeah, well, like, watch it. Right. Erm. Or I'll tell on you to one of the moderators.

I am most impressed with the Blairite tendencies of the moderators - berate, fulminate,evolve,assimilate,

CONTROL!

Just wait til you get to see the secret scrolls. We also have footage of the Kennedy assassination from an angle you haven't seen before...

We are in fact The Borg.

Remember - there is no "I" in "assimilation".

I have made a video in lieu of an acceptance speech. It is "work safe", turn your speakers on.

Here it is :

I have no idea how you made this, but it's a work of art. My congratulations!

You might also consider it prudent to prepare your resignation speech as this will save time later.

I dunno - I go away for 6 months and look what happens! Dada is a moderator! This is the end of civilisation as we know it - Cap'n!

PS Congratulations Dada!

Dadaist · Post by **Dadaist** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:22

I just hope I don't get confused and kick myself off the forum.

ecm · Post by **ecm** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:35

Your video is superb but I fear it could induce an epileptic fit or some kind of seizure if viewed too close to the screen.

Perhaps a health warning should be added?

Jay · Post by **Jay** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:36

That would be a sight! Maybe you can register as another identity to go on being Dadaist and be a moderator as ... um ... a moderator

Jay · Post by **Jay** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:43

PS I agree about the video inducing brain damage! I am a bit under the influence just now - and viewing it was - an experience
- good though!

Tsk!

Perhaps Dada's brainwashing us all. I wouldn't put it past him, you know.

But for why???

Jay · Post by **Jay** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:51

Um ??? Well - you have to have a brain to wash - first of all! (me - I mean!)

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 09 Aug 2005, 19:57

ECM said, enviously, "Tsk!" -but the sun will be over the yard arm down where Jay is!!

Jay · Post by **Jay** » 09 Aug 2005, 20:08

It's raining so hard I can't see the yard arm!

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 09 Aug 2005, 20:18

You'll be cheered to know it's quite wet here too! Mebbe I should have a wee whisky later in case I caught a chill getting soaked coming back from the mobile library earlier tonight!!

Congratulations to Dada. I can't say that I'm not surprised by his sudden elevation but i do think it is a wise choice. Well done to all concerned.

Thank you. As I cock my leg to the tree of the forum, I hope that I help it's roots at the same time as causing passers by to tut.
