Glad you're staying for many reasons but the main one being you are perfect for the job.

Its marvelous how Less always comes up with a true and down to earth statement, your right Less there are many reasons for mick staying and as you quite rightly said the main reason is that he's perfect for the job

Thank you all for your support and help i am feeling a lot better today
i had a chat with a few members yesterday and not just the ones in the railway
i really enjoy the site and i have always liked helping people but there are some you just cant help
as i said in the first post i have made a lot of good new friends in the years i have been on here and don't like it when i loose them through arguing and other things anyway things are a whole lot better now.
There is one member who i have had to slap there hands on more than 6 occasions that has posted in this thread in support of me which really surprised me and has really got to me to them a special thank you you know who you are
|
Does this mean you're staying? Hope so, you do a brilliant job and it is very, very much appreaciated.

Re: Had Enough
I personally would hate to see you leave Mick.Without any names being mentioned I think we all can guess who the people are, as the ones I have in mind havent posted in this thread.
I know you do a thankless task,but you moderate fair IMHO.Please reconsider mate and obviously I'm not the only one who feels the same way.

This is the first and probably the only time I will agree with Less.
I have been sanctioned twice, probably with good reason. Mick has a good point of which I agree, if anyone threatens, for whatever reason, total ban.
Glad your staying Mick and Cashies sig has a positive meaning. DLTBGYD.

Well, I'm not disappointed that Mick is stopping on - he's perfect for the job, far fairer than most of us could ever be.
As it happens, I pm'd Mick with an offer of help or support, but as Mick has quite rightly decided to keep on going, I don't have to put my money where my mouth is, so's to speak. The main problem with being a mod is that you have to stop posting in some of the more controversial threads, and those are the ones I like most.
Just one thing though - I thought pm's were supposed to be private. So, you're probably NOT refering to MY pm to Mick, are you Less?

Re: Had Enough
Blimey I turn my head for 5 mins and omg!!!!
Mick I have read this thread with not only dissapointment but also relief.
Im dissapointed that anyone could possibly threaten you and I think thats bloody awful. and who ever these people are then they should be ashamed of themselves.
You have done a fantastic job on here Mick and for Accyweb and Roy to lose you would be the day it would fall appart.
Yeah sure it would prob pick itself up again but it would never be the same IMO .
You are the Mod of all Mods and yes you are the best AW has got. Thing is you cant please everyone all of the time , Blimey even Ive been miffed with you at times , but that dont mean I want you ousted out.or to leave
I stay away from AW when things cheese me off but I also know no matter how long I stay away you are at the end of the phone should I need any help or advice.
Im glad you feel better mick and I hope you dont leave. Despite the few mongrels on here that are hell bent on making life a misery for others ,Just remember there are many many more that far outdo them
Accyweb has some wonderful and very genuine members and at the end of the day you have become friends with most of them.
So jump back on the rollercoaster and get some modding done

No Gayle, I wasn't referring to you, so far as I know your P.M. had remained private until now, (you and your big mouth), as indeed is any modding that Mick does, the most he has mentioned to me was the great support he had been given by a large number of members.

Re: Had Enough
Good to read you are staying onboard , think you do a thankless/great job .
and for Lindsay Ormerod , like your style/sense of humour , and as Cashy's sig. says DLTBGYD (still think your 'opposable thumbs' post was one of the best, alongside one of garindas about NuLabour ,mushy peas and guacamole , two priceless gems )

Re: Had Enough
I do so hate it when people allude to things that I can't work out.......(someone, a long standing member, having delusions of grandeur at becoming a MOD if Mick vacated his job)
Being a bear of little brain, I can't work out who this might be......and while I know, Less, that you can mention no names(for obvious reasons)....it causes my brain(the little I've got) to ache.

Re: Had Enough
I dont think he would be allowed to leave Accyweb my mum wouldnt allow it, i mean how long would she be able to put up with him grumping about the house? he wouldnt be able to go on accyweb coz every post he looked at he would still be scanning in mod mode and want to move and delete and close threads and he just wouldnt have the buttons to do it lol.
Glad your staying dad (for everyones sanity lol) xxx
see we all love you.xx
