The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

hello

[12:24] alimahmood17@hotmail.com: can i be a admin on the gof
Yeah sure, we can never have enough admins. Ready for a promotion ceremony Adam?
But seriously I don't think how anyone with some basic sense for reality and basic abilities of communication could even ask the question in this situation. When did he ask this Aves?

I assume, not being an admin so don't really know, that being banned at least once would disqualify one from being an admin.   And asking a Mod seems unusual.  I assume it is Petrie who decides, not mods.

Oh yes.. I, the Mod of the RP section holds the true power of unbanning and admin right giving.

Bow to me and despair! bwahaha! *chokes* *coughs* Okay, Petrie, **gags** release me from the force clutch, **hacks** I'll stop!

He asked me if he could be an admin at my website too. :rolleyes: It wasn't too far fetched though because he hadn't been BANNED from my website. :p He's certainly got a mental problem now.  No matter how stupid he is, there's no way he would ask that unless he's got some sort of mental retardation.  I guess he wasn't just being an a$$. :(

I'd guess if member just joined a few seconds ago they would be more likely to be made Admin here then someone banned.
