    the ditching…part two…

    *kapusta*

    …when does part three begin? j/k. why would we ditch the queen of the CR?…

    part three has apparently started already. you tell me, I think its absolutely ridiculous… 🙂

    question: where do the pictures on the YWN home page come from? like if the story is something relating to water, theres a picture of a sink, is that the editors kitchen sink?

    I repeat: do the new mods like kapusta? (the food, not the person)

    *kapusta*

    #1048608

    are the mods email addresses ywmoderator##@gmail.com? no, it is Moderator**@theyeshivaworld.com where the ** is the moderator number

    someone just published my dvar torah. It is shabbos in the US, which mod is on?

    Vacation or do you live on my side of the atlantic?

    I did – you are correct that it is still Shabbos in the US, but Shabbos is out where I currently am.

    Have a Gut Voch, JayMatt19

    PS. Out of curiosity – why just the Atlantic? It could be the Pacific… 🙂

    I am in Israel, I have no idea what “side of the Pacific” I am on.

    >>Where you currently are<<

    evasive, cute. Did they teach you that it Mod school?

    Gut Voch 81. I hope you at least read my DT, 72 tried to convince me tha tI should be proud he does not bother reading them. It was quite insulting, actually.

    72’s position is that he posts the DT without reading it in order to expedite the moderating process, however, 72 does eventually read the DT. YW Moderator-72

    how are you new mods adjusting to life as a mod?!

    #1048615

    JayMatt19-

    There are two things the moderators do:

    1) Review all posts to filter out those that either require editing or will not be posted at all due to (sometimes only potentially) problematic content. This is necessary, but increases the time between when a post is submitted by a poster, and when it actually appears.

    2) Participate in various threads (reading and replying).

    “YW Moderator-72” actually paid you quite a compliment.

    He is saying that for your divrei Torah posts, he is so sure that they are OK that he skips “step 1)” above so that they can be seen and enjoyed immediately.

    It is the equivalent of being waved by security, because the guard knows you are trustworthy.

    As far as “2) Participate in various threads (reading and replying)” – he has told you that he (and many others read and enjoy your divrei Torah.

    Sorry, but I still find it insulting that I make such an effort to post divrei torah, on the thread that 72 started and tries so hard to ensure that every night has a dvar torah, only to find out he does (or did) not read it.

    I hear your logic, I hope you can hear mine.

    #1048617

    Keep up the good work.

    icot: Im pretty sure jaymatt is pulling our collective communal legs with a dose of humor.

    If so, my leg has been thoroughly pulled.

    I might be wrong, but something tells me our mysterymod is in a bad mood. Anything us little posters can do to help?

    ICOT. It was two days later and he had still not read it. So that theory goes out the window. sorry.

    #1048626

    JayMatt19-

    Two days? Maybe it was a really good after Mariv schmooze.

    Two weeks? Now that would be another story.

    Seriously, I hear your point, but it would be a shame to remain insulted due to just that occurrence.

    I’m sure they’re usually read immediately.

    mod, anyone can answer-any mod for that matter. And I specifically meant SHY, no mention of SHAI. Like, are they shy (they sure seemed to be the first day they came) and therefore not commenting? you are making an assumption that I am not one of the new or other mods? thanks to whomever it was that fixed this.

    #1048634

    maybe you are new. seems like you made some kind of error overthere [<?/strong>]

    If you are new, then my assumption is correct cuz you’re still not saying who you are. Like your embarrassed of what you have to say. 😉

    If you are 72, then go back to you BBQ preps! (but please keep your blacberry handy!)

    y do u play me/us like that? because if you read the entire thread it was clearly stated that not all information will be provided

    you did not answer even 1 question. actually, I answered all the questions, you may have not liked the answers, but they were answered

    do u think ur nice? all moderators are nice. in the preface to the moderators handbook third revision it states all moderators have to be nice to the users even when the users ask inane questions and kvetch incessantly. the kvetch incessantly was added in the third revision to be published either later today or tomorrow.

    pls let us know our mods better

    when i go into a thread why can’t it be that the last page will appear first? {it’s a pain in the neck to have to always go to the last page} Click the “# minutes/hours ago” link and it will take you to the end

    Attention mod 72: Please stop with your excess mazel tov’s. We dont like them.

    Just so you know. Keep the mazel tov’s for better occasions.

    when were you selected the official spokesperson of the CR? Mazel Tov on your appointment.

    is it at all possible (i’m not asking if it’s likely) for a member who was blocked to be unblocked? if a person was blocked, there was a reason for it. enough said

    kapusta: i’m guessing there aren’t many in antarctica

    ames: you do know there’s a whole separate thread for that stuff (thank you letters), right? this is not a question for the mods, so please bring it to the general shoomze thread – besides we always accept letters of appreciation and coffee – thanks

    mod: here’s a cup of coffee for you

    Why does it make a difference to know where they are, not the numbers or anything? (asked in extremely curious tone, not accusatory G-d forbid.)

    AOB, the handle goes on the other side.

    doesnt it mods? not if your left handed

    which are the worst threads to mod and why? there are no worst threads – we either delete the topic or close the thread if it would lead to a classification of worst. this is just another example of the quality control that we have in place to serve the users

    which do you find the most interesting? (and why?) each mod has their own favorite threads.
