OK, Christophillis and skamen, you are now mods on a trial basis. I don't think I need to tell you stuff about what and what not to do.

Your write up was good, but I ask you not to stop there. In particular we'd like more details about you syncing setups. For example: what programs do you use, what backup regimen would you suggest, etc. (I'd also like you to email me the program you backup your MP130 with!)

Have fun!

Thanks Coxy! Will do. Can you be more specific with the synching set up thing? And one more thing... All you mods have special descriptions under your names... is there a way I can change that too?

For example, I know different versions and different programs had to be used to backup different Newton models. So, if you could do some information about that, and the porgrams you personally use, it'd be good.

Ok man that was a quick response... Can I change Newton Mod under my name to... mmm say Newton Squadron Leader? I think that is a little cooler. Also I will email you with another question of mine that involves "mod" stuff.

I reply so quickly becuase I am telepathically connected with every word of the forums...

or because I'm online using a fast uni connection. You decide.

Again thanks for appointing both Christophollis and I to mod positions. I will send in a more detailed synching write up soon. Also Coxy could you change the description under my name to Drunken Sailor? I would like to become an Admiral and head up the Navy of the 68kMLA if that's all right.

welcome gents!

The SuperMod remaining is to do this:

1) ensure that egos don't inflate and cause issues (this isn't going to happen, I can tell, and the only reason it's instituted now is because the "original" mods didn;t have the chance and things became a little heated and rocky)

2) in case something terrible happens and both you two disappear and this forum is populated by spammers and PC dorks in the enxt couple weeks, someone besides ~Coxy will be able to help out.

3) there is no three.

you guys will do fine, and I'm behind you 100%.

Thanks a bunch Marchie! I don't plan on having my ego inflate, so rest assured. Right now I'm just worried that I will say something, or do something that will have you guys demote me back to "Junior Member"... (not that it is a bad thing of course), but I like being a mod better. It was just a hunch of skamen and I, and I won't say anything else about this but, we kinda got the impression that the "mod squad" was split down the middle when deciding to let us be mods. You fighting for us of course.... I don't know, it was just a feeling I got.

Has my Mod position been revoked already? My name is not on the Mod list anymore for the Newton forum and I've lost my mod control buttons on the forum. I was out of town for the weekend on a ski trip in Canada and I just got back. That's reason why I haven't posted anything this weekend. I just want to know if there is a reason for this or if it was a mistake?

A very wierd bug, let me tell you.
Your user status is Moderator and you are selected as the mod for the newton forum, but for some reason you don't actually have your powers or name listed. This means that I can't see a problem, but I'm trying a few things...

An error (again...), must've come about from when I fixed the first error. The situation has been rectified, return to your homes people!
