Perks of Being A Moderator


Raspbernie

Recommended Posts

Few are called, even fewer are chosen.

I thought I'd take the time to enumerate the many advantages Kirk, LC and myself share since we are Moderators:

1. Keys to the executive bathroom
2. EricCarmen.com 401(k) match
3. Use of the company car
4. Two weeks paid vacation
5. Free beer

When do those start? All I've received is a headache from Bundles...

Bernie...I believe that this post is a veiled attempt to “rub it in my face”...

Let me address your “advantages” list...

1.) “Keys to the executive bathroom”...

If you think that driving to Sayreville or Delaware(or wherever the hell you live these days) to take a “dump” in the executive washroom Is a privilege, that’s a pretty “shitty” proposition...

2.) “EricCarmen.com 401(k) match...

To quote that famous philosopher, Billy Preston, “nothing from nothing leaves nothing”...

3.) “Use of the company car”

The Raspberries Volkswagen disappeared many years ago...This is no longer a bonus...

4.) “2 weeks paid vacation”

I just ended a 14 week paid vacation(unemployment compensation)...It ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be...

5.) “Free Beer”

I work for a wine distributor...Free beer is a demotion...It’s like becoming a moderator for the Big Star website...

So Bernie, I am gonna have to pull a “Dolly Parton” here and decline your offer, if presented as such...

P.S.-These are not valid perks...I remember one moderator/administrator who packed it in years ago and I’m sure her “severance package” was much greater than these perks...

(Sorry, Bern...If that’s still a sensitive topic, “moderate away”

Maybe you haven't heard, but Dolly just announced that she would graciously accept a nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Perhaps you'd like to reconsider as well?

Lew, things are getting confusing, but do NOT take your eye off the 8 ball. It's about the power you will have as moderator.

With power the wealth will come, via using your power to receive bribes. I know, I am owner of a harem..you wouldn't believe the amounts chicks will pay for entry via our "old chick hardship slot".

Also, with power we can get our revenge on that rapscallion Kirk for his tyrannical reign as moderstor for all these years. 

And the best part? Sophie Marceau's boobs will LIVE on this website.

Heh.

 The other nice perk that Bernie mentioned: our weekly zoom calls with Eric. We don't like to bring them up because people will wanna know what we talk about. Alas, it's in the vault (but it's real and it's spectacular).

Truth is, there's a lot LESS to moderate around here than in the past. Sure, every now and then some Member has a meltdown and needs to be strapped back into their seat, but for the most part moderating EricCarmen.com is being asked to remove a double post or moving a Raspberries topic from "That's Rock 'N' Roll" to "Go All the Way."

And the free beer.

You left out the pleasure of enjoying Sophie Marceau´s boob shots, and enjoying even more  deleting James´ post of them..(...ahem, KIRK...)....while AT THE SAME TIME making a screen shot of them for use as your new desktop wallpaper!

Arghhhhhh..

That rapscallion Kirk, ...he is a SNEAKY dirty dog.

And... there are all those "died," "dead," and "RIP" posts scattered about that we're migrating to "Don't Wanna Say Goodbye." I don't think we've found them all yet, though that new "grim reaper" section is past 15 pages.

It's not all glamour and glory, Lew! 🙂
