The guy is a bandit! Mark my words, he's gonna be looking for more kickbacks than a Chicago traffic Court Judge...look at this excerpt from a PM I just got from him..

"well Kenny boy, looks like your days of running wild in the For sale section are finsihed. There's a new Sheriff in town, and I'm jest ready to kick your curmudgeonly butt unless you follow MY RULES....did you read that right you dirty GUN SNOB....MY RULES Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.....First, you can't call me Tuttle8 no more...you must address me as "Your Most Profound Moderatorness"....Thus your worthless communications to me shall read 'Thank you for allowing my disgusting For Sale post Your Most Profound Moderatorness, here is your 20% commission and the stripper shalll show up at your door shortly, please let me know when I may sell again'"


There is more, but the descriptions of the acts, objects and things would make even the most hardened vice cop blanch!

O woe is me, we are all doomed.

You know, I was inclined to say all y'all are in a world of hurt. But I think it's the other way around instead....

Thanks, digdeep. Wasn't expecting an official welcome thread for me. Kinda making me blush.

Welcome Tut.... good choice on Staff's part!

I don't frequent the buy and sell forums much, but just knowing you're there moderating WA, makes me feel better.

As much I appreciate the thread, I feel it would be for self gratification to keep it open. We'll see how long it takes for an "Official Tuttle8 Goodbye" thread pops up.

Hate to contradict our new mod, but it's sort of a tradition here at TFL to "roast" the new guy!...

Besides, I want to see how long it takes Ken to post something I get to ban him for! Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!

Re-opened to maintain the tradition (and to see how red faced you can get).

Ha! All the GOOD stuff is in either Yiddish or Latin and you are the only one who can read that

Anyway, Before you admitted that...that....person to your exalted ranks did he tell you about that time I caught him, a midget in a clown suit and one of the pulchitrudinous strumpets from Adelita's Bar in Tijuana target shooting with Bersas in a garbage dump down by the border? Heavens!

And this is the man to whom you entrust the depth of moderator duties to? Thank god I'm leaving for Japan, I'm scared to list that Springfield EMP that just came in!

Forget Yiddish or Latin. What the heck is this language, Kendonese?

Mod or fluffer; somebody has to do the dirty work. Glad to have you on board to keep us in line.

Great mod, and all my experiences so far with all the mods have been very positive. I've had a few threads that were probably off topic but were well received or at least got some really interesting and controlled conversation going that was allowed to stay open and die naturally, while others obviously got out of hand and were kindly put to sleep.

It's hard to be the "bad guy", inasmuch as some people view the police as the "bad guy", but anyone with a brain has to respect what they do.

That said, how come no one's chatting in my "i had Cheerios for breakfast and it was awesome!" thread? =P

Hey, tell that to members that had their threads deleted because they don't read the rules before posting for sale items...

Thanks for the compliments guys and gals. Y'all have Antipitas on the ropes. He thinks I was going to be roasted. I think I'm being showered with love.

Take that, Al.

Do these threads have an expiration date? So where's Al's welcome thread? Let's have some fun here!... dig out the stone tablets and let's have at it!

Takes a special thread for that?

Congrats again, Tuttle! Hopefully someone (apparently can't count on Al) will have some mercy and shut this thing down before you quit!
