Moderators' perks

[brocklanders023]

I know it doesn't happen but I'd be happy for the mods to get first crack at all FS items. Top job done by top people.

Imagine the scandal if that happened - it be more controversial than that last newsletter I sent out.

Yes, mods perks - must be great fun trawling through all the right wing crap, quasi racist comments and new members introducing themselves to the RB community in such positive ways.

For sale threads? They have the time to read them? really?

Yeah, have done a few. Last one which was sent genereated so much whining and complaining (unsolicited junk mail, spam, blah blah blah, whine whine whine) we've not bothered since.

I still like newsletters.
IIRC it was only one person who whinged? So please do bother again

Do moderators get to see all posts first inc. the for sale threads?

If so does that mean they see the bits they want to buy before anyone else? :? :?
If so it's wrong, if not and they see them the same time as any other browser then I apologise unreservedly for my cynicism.

bottom line no

It could be done but the workload would be immense - understatement there! say a modest 1 post a minute, 60 posts an hour 1440 a day. Though at peak times - home from work/flamewars/missus asking for housework to be done/strictly ballroom on the telly that could easily be a post every 5 seconds. no one would do it!

Modding is an endless thankless task anyway asking to preview and auth every post would be insane!

If you want to nab all the bargains just watch the for sale section and refresh it every 15 seconds!
