    A Living Wage for Mods.. Proposal.....

    Given the hard work the Mods put in keeping this place in line I submit a proposal.. In America no person should have to work hard thankless hours and not receive a living wage. Mods benefit our society and democracy. They don't have the privilege of the posters and suffer from a history of discrimination. Their working conditions are brutal. 2am PM wars and Reports at all hours on abusive threads! They are the true underclass of our time.

    In its most basic form Mod Diversity is our strength.


    I propose every member contribute towards a living wage for the Mods.

    We don't need to come up with like a zillion dollars....

    But we don't need our Mods living off of government cheese either.

    What say you all on making sure these fine people have financial security?

    Very difficult balance to strike given the awesome power they have.

    Mods need no recompense. The swelling in their genital region in being an internet mod is gratifying enough.

    Art thou every retard among us related to thine uncle or mistress by way of moral or illegitimate rendezvous? Thus, we are one side of the other's coin by luck or pluck. - Jimmyz

    Thank you for such a bright opening. It might be a good reason for you to apply to a position of becoming a moderator inside of this same forum. Not for pay, although that might be a good, valid reason. That is, you could supervise the others, to make sure the rules are tightened up, and then their enforcement happens. This board could fill with real opportunities. Good people could form some real positive, intelligent narratives. For some have said that the stifling and constant attacks are all done with a real purpose, but who knows? It just seems to be the constants. Probably not, but for such, there must be exceptions. Satan rules! Everything for the anarchists. Thanks. Peace knows no prayers. Conspiracies are for tin-foils. Have a nice day.

    I agree 100% -- for mods of ThePoliticalforums. Not SDMB mods -- they are banndits. A bnndit is a ban-happy mod.
