OK. I'm at currently home and not at any company Christmas party. As a passing thought, I was curious whether anyone has ever wondered if: (1) the TRF moderators are acquainted with one another on an in-person basis; (2) there are Moderator GTGs held at some exotic locale where they sip tropical cocktails and watch beautiful young women (in string bikinis) splash in the surf and then maybe later, (3) dinner at some high-end restaurant where they discuss Rolexes, other hobbies/outlets and various TRF forum members? (Not to be paranoid or anything).

From the standpoint of accurate factual reportage/information, this query can probably only be answered by the moderators so I imagine that this thread will have a relatively short respondent following.

Lol. Interesting. I wonder how many Mods we have?

Mainly meeting online.

That's news to me.

I knew about the salary and stock options, but a pension plan? Nice.

I believe they also get upgraded to First on all official TRF business.

I was thinking along those lines myself. Then again, maybe one will chime-in and add some perspective.

I think the mods are a collective figment of our imagination...

The mystery is what makes it.

That, and the fact I had a good laugh......(if only half of it were true!)

Happy Holidays.

I could be wrong but I think they are discussing what to do with you?

bayerische · 23 December 2016, 07:47 PM

There's no Mods, only Overlords.

Rock · 23 December 2016, 08:15 PM

They get paid in Rolexes - one for every 10 interventions.
A chastisement is an Explorer, a warning a DJ.
A Ban earns a Daytona. A permanent ban a DD.

They are all retired and living on a private island from having made millions in Pledge Member fees. I don't know how we fall for giving TRF such exorbitant amounts of money each year.
