Ab's New Year Resolutions

[AB Editor]

Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope we're all feeling refreshed and ready to face the great sparkling potential of 2014.

I've not made any resolutions this year - not yet anyway.

I wondered if you'd like to make some for me, and the site in the general.

What direction would you like the site to go in over the next year?

What do you think we could do better over the next 12 months?

What's missing from AB?

Any suggestions and ideas welcome, as long as you're not too rude about it :)

why should we jelly babies be made to get an avatar ? ED re mods, I would be very wary of discussing any mod with you who I was unhappy with, as I would only be going on my instinct, but imo '' sarcastic retorts '' does not a good mod make. :)

///"The lunatics have taken over the asylum"///

No. that's just one (hopefully) of the Mods boxy!

I have not received an email from ANYONE about the issue of inappropriate mod behaviour. I welcome any.

B00's been cheeking the older girls and showing them blobfish pictures.

[B00]

oi jno, behave yourself!

Anne, there's no reason why you can't privately email the Ed if you think there's a mod who's not behaving, unless it's me, and if that's the case- shutty ;-)

[jeffa]

"reverse chronological order (i.e. most recent first)"

:-)

Baldrick, there seems to be one Mod in particular you feel is out of order - have you shared your concerns as Ed asks?

Anne, Mods are AB members too, they can have fun along with all of us.

[Mamyalynne]

Sincere apologies - Baldric (it is my most common mistake on here, not intentional at all)

Ed, //If you think there's a problem, you need to let me know. If you don't think there's a problem, why pretend there is one?//

That’s encouraging. You want me to let you know, but already you doubt my integrity by accusing me of pretending. You may rest assured that pretence is not my style – but it’s no surprise that people are reluctant to email you.

[Psybbo]

How many AB Eds are there?

[sandyRoe]

How many mods are there? Do they get paid a lot? And, if so, are there any vacancies?

[jno]

they're always open for applications, sandyRoe, but the psychometric testing for applications is daunting. Plus I failed the anti-troll training because all I managed to zap were two ducks and the vicar's wife.

I hope to apply again in 2014, however.

It would be helpful on latest posts if you could either click on the title to go to the beginning of the thread- or the last poster to go straight to the end (as you can in profiles).

[Tilly2]

I would like to be able to award good answers as well as best answers. Sometimes it's really difficult to choose a best answer, so I don't.

[sandyRoe]

I've always held the view that I wouldn't want to be a member of any club that would have me and I think that includes the Worshipful Guild of Mods. I've not been asked to take the necessary tests but if I had I'd have declined.

[ChillDoubt]

Funny how CD goes on about mods pulling threads willy nilly, yet the other night was saying "where's a mod when you need one" just because he didn't agree with the OP.
--------------
Why would I agree with an OP who came on here with the sole purpose of abusing other AB'ers?
Tsk, mods eh?

[boxtops]

I'm not aware that people are reluctant to email the Ed - are they?

[shoota]

I would like a '00' prefix so that I may terminate willy nilly.

[B00]

nope, I email him at least 5/6 times EVERY day- oddly enough, he's failed to respond to any of 'em :-(

[boxtops]

I'd like to have LIKE button as you do on FB - sometimes a post has made me LOL but short of posting that, there is no other way to express appreciation.
