    Welcome back Neph and Flip. We missed you guys. Hope everything gets back to normal for both of you so you can spend some time here again.

    This is a little off topic but just a suggestion to the Admins. I know Ireland mods the X Copy forums. It seems to me he should be allowed to mod this part of the forum also. He knows the system and rules and could be a big help over here. I think the other mods could use the help at times. Just something I think would help.

    As Neph mentions "The auto promote system sucks"

    I was made senior just when "Auto-promote" was introduced. I requested to be "busted" down to member..but it fell on deaf ears. Hence my reason for leaving. To tell the truth I don't even lurk these days..I just have a casual glance every weeks or so. Don't get me wrong..I had some great times on here.

    To cut to the chase. This place just aint what it used to be. Titles mean trouble. Titles for posts mean "more posts". More posts mean more crap.......

    Neph probably does not remember me...but he was/is a "Top fella". I am deperately sad to read about his problems. I wish him THE VERY BEST.

    PS Everyone heard of DVD rebuilder/cce ?...well I was the fella that first used this combination & posted about it on this community..way way back.

    That's exactly what I mentioned to him in a PM just a couple of days ago.. But I don't think he's interested from the response I got, to say the least. I would relay to you what he said, but instead I'll let ireland answer for himself..

    @Lethal_b, It was just a suggestion, if there are personal reasons against it then thats Ok here. Everyone has to make their own choices. I just thought he would make a good addition on this side. He's still one of the good guys in my book either way.

    Who Ireland??....as a mod?. Are we talking about the same guy who saunters around the Mod lounge gobbling up all the grub, surfing for unmentionable material and recklesslesy posting pics. That be the one? :) Actually Lethal and Jerry I couldn't agree more. In addition to what you both have said he is quite a ubiquitious fellow with a tolerant disposition and a passion for this site. He has certainly earned his rank and as was said before, is quite familiar with these forums and their goings-on. I vaguely recall him saying that he's kind of kicking back right now and hence his posts in the Safety Valve and that the decision would rest with DRD & Admin. What I inferred from that was that he wasn't gunning for the job but if he was asked to do it, then he might be willing to give it a go. I however could very well be wrong.
    I have seen on either 1 or 2 occassions where he posted in a thread where someone was reported and though he was present was powerless to ban the individual and the response by one of the regular mods was well....delayed(this of course is a subjective observation). I know that some of the current mods have said that they are not overwhelmed and I guess with the return of Flip +/- Neph then they might actually have sufficient man-power presently. From way down here looking upwards however, my simplistic and probably myopic view would believe that the more mods the merrier. But once again,.....I could very well be wrong.

    I remember you brian!!!!

    I've asked Ireland as well and he's told me no ... we just got to keep on him.

    more mods? that is always debatable, I think aD can be managed with 2 or 3 mods. Looks like creaky and ddp have done a good job while alot of us were gone (well I'm going to assume so at least lol).

    Just goin to a post earlier... So correct me if im wrong soo Ireland can only Mod the DVDXcopy forums not others... How does that work i thought once your a mod you have free reign to help manage the site with the other mods, especally when some have to take breaks...

    So can anyone shed any light on the matter...

    Your right, XCopy mods only have mod privileges on the XCopy site. Regular mods can do it on both sites.

    Ireland, what the hell are you doing posting pictures like that skeleton on page 1/2? (canna mind) It's totally innapropriate for the topic that was being discussed what the hell is wrong with you? And on the second/third page the random "how to add a gif image in your sig" is totally random and inappropriate.. jeez it's about time someone took a stand here, all these random topics about jokes when there are already countless numbers of them already? Time to wise up don't you think, Ireland? Seriously..

    Flip

    Herbsman. I was trying to think of that name last night. Thanks for jogging the memory :). What a fine fella he was.

    Do you remember the legendary DrChips...I wonder??.
    BigOrange was another fine fella.

    Cheers
