Shame really as it seemed like a pleasant, albeit dull place until the banished from here started playing out their trauma on it.
Is BTC you?
Is there a Ronnie Hotdogs on there yet?
No, on Mungo's I'm "Prestige Worldwide"

Hitler was still moving his non-existent divisions around the battlefield from his bunker. I think the phrase is "wake up and smell the coffee".

One thing that Mungo's crew may not have considered is that if this place "ceased to be" then most would go over to his place. Given that many over there think the vast majority of "us" are loons that may well change the comfy feel of his fiefdom. Mungo would be wielding the banning bat with increasing regularity only for a new alias, and probably new IP, to come right back at him. Power is a terrible thing......

Can I just confirm that I get absolutely no feeling of power whatsoever from this gig. PW on the other hand is clearly in it for the kicks. Breakfast time here at mod-towers can be pretty unseemly, especially if I've had the last of the coco-pops before he gets up.

Tempting as your idea is, chances are Mungo would just pull up the drawbridge and not take any new members. It's what any dedicated and sensible Admin would do. Could you imagine how nice this place could be with a sensible moderator dedicated to their duties?

Never doubted your "balanced" approach to modding FTC.....

I'm not advocating going over to the other side btw, just that it may have consequences to Mungo's if a chunk of us had to find a new home.

Thanks but as I've said elsewhere, setting this place up and running it was never about praise or some form of power. The Tapatalk forum was on it's arse and as RichmondO had disappeared without trace, I just thought I'd give setting up a forum a go whilst I had the time spare rather than let it just fade away. Sadly that time is now filled mainly with work and other commitments hence PW doing most of the spade-work around here and without his input this place would've probably disappeared when Bluehost made a bollocks of things. I've made no secret of my appreciation for PW's work on this place.

Think I've been modding / admin much longer than I ever intended - christ knows how many cock-ups and bad calls I've made over that time. Probably still make plenty more in the future. However, treating Huxley et al with the disdain they deserve isn't one of them.

Used to wonder where mods ended up when they rode off into the sunset. Apparently it's Wales, going by Slacker. It's one hell of a price to pay.

Well, our Premium VIP Account subscriptions more or less paid for that country house, so it’s not all bad.

Calling an old caravan in a farmers field a "country house" is a bit of a stretch tbh.

Before it all folds up (I hope it doesn't) can a few mysteries be cleared up first please?

What did Buono actually do?
Is Doug alright these days?
Is Faith/Barry for real?
Where is Norbertdentressangle these days?
Is/was CheshuntO guilty of all charges?
Was Sawbos really Martin Ling?

Buono upset the wrong people in Switzerland.

Doug has had more than his fair share of health issues, but mainly down to his post-cancer drug treatment. But he's doing okay for now.

Is Faith/Barry for real? You betcha.

Norbertdentressangle spends his days on Facebook reminiscing over his old photos.

Latest legal advice is to not comment on CheshuntO.

Sawbos was Dean Smith.

How's Bunk Moreland?

Is Sharky still employed by the Labour Party?

What happened to former owner RichmondO?

Bunk can still be spotted going for jogs around Wood Green.

Shark was uncovered as a SWP stooge and has been banned from the Labour Party. But rumour has it that he maintains a close relationship with John McD.

RichmondO shares a cell with Buono.

I always though Faith was for real but as the self appointed boardin' numbskull, I merely accepted others knew best. If it is/was an alias, what kind of intelligence would keep it up for so long.

Sawbos? 100%?
