    I asked for volunteers shortly before the move to the new board and got a large response. Many it is a mix of different people, but I looked for those experienced with moderating this type of board and also long-time Morrissey-solo users.

    Brunnen=well, like a water well
    well beats rock 'rock drops into well'
    paper beats well 'paper lays over well'
    i think well and a scissors is a draw

    or my crazy old german grandfather may have just been 'having me on'

    How were the nazis who ran the death camps chosen?
    The most fanatical and sycophantic Hitler worshippers were happy, in fact honoured, to do it.

    "How are moderators chosen?"
    All the above is a smokescreen. The real answer is that they are chosen in a cyber-fellatio contest.

    Depends on how much wompom you got? You got the right amount, you can buy anything. Besides, if you/your posts were THAT important, they'd have made you one already. If you haven't become one by now, you won't.
