Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations new moderators....

If that were really the case then I must have missed Bob's call. I took up more bandwidth in my first two weeks than a lot of members combined.
Crap... I just could not stay away. Is there a Pond Boss version of AA?

Welcome back girl

You don't want to go there Deb.
You're where you need to be.

Deb :

Good to see you back !! You can not get away from the PB forum or the addiction . I am afraid it is a permanent affliction.

Debra - watch out your first post AM (after moderation) has the word "woo-woo" in it. Uh-oh so does mine. A big welcome back!!!

PFF, I had to practice.

I'm so sorry!

I thynk Theo am just ornery enuff two start edding tipos too my poasts.

Bruce- LOL I cn't even type! I'm laughing so hard. Bob you may have created a monster!

Now that's funny!

woo-woo for crap! Even funnier!

I knew it would happen! Dr Frankenbruce AND his evil sidekick Igor both have a finger on "The Button".... aaaieeeee! We're doomed.

Congrats Gents, playing Bob won't be easy, should I conduct a test and start a Crappie thread !

We couldn't be in better hands, protect the FORUM at all costs!

Eastland....
I think that would be a "woo-wooie" thread

Great! I am blackballed in my first post ASA (after slinking away) by the trigger happy gas master. I'm leaving again...not.
Shall I replace the c*** with the term air bisquit, or poo poo, or ???? I mean heck guys this new program has to have a rulebook somewhere.

PS- How about a hybrid woo-wooie thread? Talk about REALLY confusing the new members.

I've already altered the forum programming to make "Pond dam" into "Pond dag-nab".

Georgia Giant Hybrid Woo-Wooies

Now that's funny!

Don't you mean Georgia Giant Hybrid Bull Woo-wooies?

Alright thee who has let the power get to his head. While you are feeling trigger happy tonight you might want to change "Building a dam" (under the pond construction topic) to "Building a water stopping slope", and by all means please eliminate the topic "fertilization" (under the managing an existing pond topic). :p

Dave, Bruce and Ewest - Congrats and condolences.
Copied below is one moderator's assessment of many modern web sites (using a generic example). Good luck!

ROFLOL
That sounds like our little family in a nut shell (or should it be nutshell?). And how did I go from lightbulbs to nutshells on a pond forum under a moderator topic?

Which of our newly assigned PB forum supervisors will be the "stay on topic" moderator?

Now that's scary....!

Probably Theo. He has no sense of humor.

In 1741, Captain Rice set sail from Antigua with a mutinous crew. He never reached his intended destination.

Is the use of a comma in the above proper gramer?


And now we have Rice Crispies!

I think Theo does what his Rice Crispies tell him!

BTW, Good one Kelly!

Bruce- You need to check your spell checker. It is having a major malfunction.
