| PM me and let me know. I don't know if I'm going to have the time to devote to it for a while, and I'm not just going to disappear like others have without saying something.
Ultimate decision is up to Vapeatron, but let me know if you're interested.
I'll still be around, but Moderating has begun to take up a bit of my time.

| If I had the time I would've loved to help out... but that's not an option right now with the crazy schedule.
I nominate Rocky as an ideal candidate. Level headed voice of reason... and retired... what better qualifications could you have?
RY4, Teri, and Rose are all good candidates for active members who have shown good judgement.
Either way, you're gonna be sorely missed around here, Steam |

STEAM! YOU CANNOT QUIT! Simply ask for a 3rd mod, because we're growing so quickly, and both of y'all need to have more help around here. AND DAT'S DA TRUTH!

Maybe there's something all of us can do, like a flag for a new user that prevents further posting until a review? |

I have a lot of irons in the fire, and work is piling up again. I can't figure them out...I go for days with onesy-twosey jobs per day and then the next two weeks I'm drowning...
I think they have some kind of radar that says, "He's looking for another job again! Make sure he has so much work he can't apply anywhere!"
Honestly...and when I GET an interview, I get more work per day than I can complete in three!

Maybe put a block on all currently known and active users...hmm?
That way the offender will have to wait to post or contact a mod directly and find out why....
Therefore partially relieving the burden off you guys having to troll everywhere all of the time.
Let all of us help you guys...?? |

And, if we're quick about you, you guys never even know they posted BS.

Say 20-30 or so posts before being able to move on? |

Personally, I think that's bogus, and when I joined here it was because I saw a post and wanted to ask the poster a question, and I got an answer in a few minutes.
Berger is generally quicker on the trigger than I am and has weeded out a pile of BS before you guys even saw it...

Of course, it would make it easier to hunt them down, but if you look at the other forum they have a great many threads in the New User's section, so a spammer can still get in and do a LOT of damage before being discovered.
