That question has been making me think for a long time. All moderaters (not assistant moderators) seem to have assasin MTW or RTW avatars, but why? There is a nice selection, they don't all have to look mean? So why do they do it?
Thankyou.

They are mean. And they mean you to know they're mean.

You always have to point at me yelling "Haaaalf-liiing, haaalf-liiing!", don't you?
:disappointed:
I agree, their souls are dark and mysterious, And they want everybody to see this! :laugh4:
LEN, if you try harder, one day you may be dark enough!:sweatdrop:
All of the moderators are in fact the last of the mysterious cult of the hashishin, believed to have been wiped out centuries ago. They regularly assassinate the members they don't like, which is why I'm currently in hiding in the mountains. In fact I shouldn't even be telling you this...
**sees the curtain move slightly**
**runs**
read the instagib topic in this forum...like our new tool ? ~D.Quote:

I wish I could InstaGib once Mithradir. ~D
I have dark thoughts. ~D
I wish I could have a dark and mysterious avatar, but I wouldn't know what to do with it.
Their beauty is blinding...
Interesting topic. Caravel, interesting explanation. I will have it in mind. Probably you will save my life. I currently prefer to be in the Mead hall which is often said to be ' quiet place' ( there is not many people there, really ( compared to the other subforums). Iwill be careful :2thumbsup:.
P.S. I like this trend. It is quite unique
Is that suposed to sound threatening? Anyway, answer so then you can Instagib me! Thing is I would have to start again as a Junior Member with 0 posts! But at least I would know...Quote:

I think Tosa had a thing for veiled threats ( thats us :laugh4: ) and equality...
My soul is certainly dark and mysterious... and I have the compassion of a rock.
I wish I could be a moderator...
Don't we all.Quote:

I've heard some pretty nasty stuff about that....cermonies involving hot iron pokers, leather wips and low quality beer don't sound ...inviting...Quote:

So if I was to become a moderator then I would have to trade my lovely avatar that looks almost exactly like me (except for the bald head) for that of an assassins? Thats not fair, you should start a public group that aims to change moderator sign up policies...Quote:

LOL General! You just need to add some red glowing eyes and I'm sure some mod would pick it up ~:)
And I was almost a moderator until they realized I was enjoying all of itQuote:

..You can't imagine it..Just stay clean and ordinary..I miss those days..Oh damn I forgot to wash out the mop..Eeewwww..
The ninja avatars for the moderators are meant to scare the sheet out of you.
I don't know about that. If it wasn't for the cheap beer, I'd be all over it! [whistles innocently]Quote:

A few moderators have had the skill to create their own avatar, or been persuasive enough to convince Tosa to allow something different...
Soly, Myrddraal, frogbeastegg, Epistolary Richard...
Every new staff member gets to clean the Org toilets... the practice was already established when I became moderator. I think it teaches us how to cope with unpleasant tasks ( if you can cope with the Org toilets you can cope with anything!
http://wise.net.nz/users/robm/dirty toilet.jpg
Compared to the Org toilets, the task of keeping the forums clean and safe for humans to use is easy. ( why don't you guys flush? )
:laugh4:
Eeeewwww.... :skull:
And other question, maybe it isnt on topic but
Who moderates a foum who doesnt have moderators?
The administrator.
He is a moderator on all forums.
Right so that is the legendry initiation ceremony, cleaning a load of toilets... DISCUSTING, as far as I can recall about my primary school days even those horrible, discusting, smelly toilets weren't that bad. Thing is who uses the .Org toilets. Members don't, and even the Moderators can't make that much mess! You should hire a (very good) cleaner or get Kim and Aggy (How Clean is Your House) in!Quote:
