Ike, you and I have come across each other's paths over the years and you know what, I just wanna say that you are always so nice and sincere. Vic and Jag are newer to these boards than you but they think a lot like you too. Good guys. Thank you for the prayer Sweetheart and I am glad to see "the mod thing" hasn't ruined your personality *winks*. You had your work cut out for ya for sure. I haven't heard that anyone from the board lost anyone but my friend lost a good friend in Tusc. He was running to his truck from his cousin's house trying to get away from it and was slammed up against a tree. The impact killed him. The vibe of death and destruction is everywhere and everybody impacted feels for everyone going through it in Joplin and Oklahoma. I wanna send "best wishes" back to ya for the extremes you deal with too. Stay sweet
For those of you are not familiar with Ike, he is the best mod on this site. He handles everything he comes across very professionally and pretty much is always right on target; much like Vic and Jag but he was pretty well known on the mother board and has been around for a long while so he is more well known and site traveled. He has also been around long enough to have an experience in common with so many of us veterans in that he has been the target of the "board trolls" in the past and he handled it better than I have ever seen anyone handle it; including myself and he mod spanked me for it. I would guess this is why they made him a "super mod". Did ya know I remember your old drama too Ike? (No, I'm not sucking up, lol, just speaking up from my experience). If you are ever surfing the site and run across the "veteran attackers" on any one of the site's boards then send him the links and he will investigate without bias to any individual; and he won't say a word til he knows exactly what's going on; and then he handles it without being disrespectful but doesn't leave any room for rebuttal. He's a real nice guy but nice is out the window when he mods cause he doesn't like drama. He's strictly professional. I friggin love it even though I have been on both sides of that coin! In fact, before he became a mod here this last time, I told him he should start his own site. The only other person I have ever told that to was CK when all that crap went down- so this coming from me is unheard.
You should be breaking in the new mods
You have always made a good point. and had a realistic yet interesting point of view.
See St. Chris, I know we have disussed a few of my suggestions and I have posted some too for response and you paid attention. I appreciate that a lot. Putting Ike over that nightmare in Houston and making him a "super mod" for the whole site was a fabulous decision. Actually, the few new rules and Ike are the best decisions I have seen the site make. Thank you! Hopefully you take me serious about him training new mods
(if he has time that is). He's fair and sophisticated about it. Definitely my favorite mod of ALL time and ever! Of course I had all ready told him and you this a while back when you were taking votes, Huh? I'm just sharing with these guys... info share, right?
Best Mod Ever cause he doesn't get caught up in board drama as a person or mod and he shows "NO" favoritism or judgment as a mod. Just the facts and he shoots straight forward with the experience to recognize bs. Ike for President *giggles*
