yes your right. rollitup is the best, but why cannot it be better, for every one.
it souldnt matter where you are from.
we all grow and talk about it on our p.c.'s.
not go for lunch like some on the site.

I don't think the mods job is to help you grow - if they do that is great! But i think their role is to enforce forum rules and answer or address any forum issues. And to make sure the site runs smoothly both people-wise and technical-wise. And considering how fast the site has grown, the amount of simultaneous users, the number of posts combined with how few mods there are - to be honest, I'm not sure how the mods keep up with everything.

it is a dirty, thankless, aggravating job with few if any perks (unless you abuse your powers and then it is fun but not very long-lasting).

I would like to see mods from all over the world and both sexes - not because of any time delays or area/sex-specific advice but to alleviate the work load for the current mods and also to introduce some new thoughts and cultures into the community.

Just my two cents from a former (NOT RIU) mod

they serve nothing but sausage at our mod meetings. i'd love a brownie.

and why does it matter if a mod can stay up past such and such time.

YOU GOT PLENTY OF MEMBERS who are on most of the day..... and if not there is always a PM (private message) feature.

i know members like myself, email468, filthlyfletch STAY helping, AT ANY given time or day!!! I could go on and on about how many members help the site with advice 24/7. why does it matter if its a mod or not?

You know I agree with you LB - but it does make you feel special getting moderator attention. Combine that with the fact that our mods grow some great looking plants - who wouldn't want advice straight from them?
