Bobby is a MOST unsuitable Mod and this was obvious before he was made Mod.

I suggest that Environment be split.

The present board could be renamed “Climatology” and Bobby could Mod that.

A new MRB could then be created and called “Environment” put Barnacle in as Mod. Bobby might then transfer a few threads to kickstart the new board, to be worked out by the two Mods.

Simple.

Can people comment on this suggestion please? No poll, meaningless, stupid poll got us in this fix to start with.

So. . .comments?

Bobby was voted in sounds like a case of sour grapes from a sore loser.

I didn’t run, champ.

What about "Environment" for one and "AGW for Suckers" for another.

" THE ARCTIC IS MELTING

“It will without doubt have come to your Lordship’s knowledge that a considerable change of climate, inexplicable at present to us, must have taken place in the Circumpolar Regions, by which the severity of the cold that has for centuries past enclosed the seas in the high northern latitudes in an impenetrable barrier of ice has been during the last two years, greatly abated….

(see additional*)

….. this affords ample proof that new sources of warmth have been opened and give us leave to hope that the Arctic Seas may at this time be more accessible than they have been for centuries past, and that discoveries may now be made in them not only interesting to the advancement of science but also to the future intercourse of mankind and the commerce of distant nations.” A request was made for the Royal Society to assemble an expedition to go and investigate."

"Additional…

”Mr. Scoresby, a very intelligent young man who commands a whaling vessel from Whitby observed last year that 2000 square leagues (a league is 3 miles) of ice with which the Greenland Seas between the latitudes of 74° and 80°N have been hitherto covered, has in the last two years entirely disappeared. The same person who has never been before able to penetrate to the westward of the Meridian of Greenwich in these latitudes was this year able to proceed to 10°, 30′W where he saw the coast of East Greenland and entertained no doubt of being able to reach the land had not his duty to his employers made it necessary for him to abandon the undertaking.

This, with information of a similar nature derived from other sources; the unusual abundance of ice islands that have during the last two summers been brought by currents from Davies Streights (sic) into the Atlantic.

The ice which has this year surrounded the northern coast of Ireland ( see footnotes1) in unusual quantity and remained there unthawed till the middle of August, with the floods which have during the whole summer inundated all those parts of Germany where rivers have their sources in snowy mountains.”

President of the Royal Society, London, to the Admiralty, 20th November, 1817, Minutes of Council, Volume 8. pp.149-153, Royal Society, London. 20th November, 1817

There you go, one vote in favor.

I doubt this idea will float.  From what has been posted by them, it seems the GMods are attempting to persuade FD to lessen the number of MRBs....not increase them.

So pick a board that is comatose, appoint Barny as Mod, rename it something sensible, Barny cleans house. . .in business!

Here is an idea!

Rename “Atheism” to “Atheism and Science” and Barny is ALREADY Mod there!

Simple!

If they want to reduce the number of MRBs they could deep six Real Estate.

Well you got Barney down pat. ;)

I have put a post in Atheism to see if Barny likes the idea.

Have an idea he will.

Booby should like the idea, he can post fantasy ice age videos to his hearts content. No rude jokes at his expense no more being called “Booby” there, well less of it.

Hell, merge Drug Policy into the board, one less MRB!

Merge Books into Film and TV—TWO boards less!

Looks like he has hidden it.

Did you do that Bobby?  If so....why?

He REALLY does censor not moderate. So unsuitable as a baby could have predicted.

No, the thread is there, just locked. Pathetic does not begin to describe it!

Sorry, but  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

No....I was wrong.  Not hidden.  Locked.

Did you get your arse kicked by the snake oil salesman, Bobby?  Get some orders from him? 

Booby can censor BUT he knows Dubyne lied about the Arctic not warming.

how about call relationships GLOBAL WARMING by MONK...   it may as well be.  what you havent already started as AGW threads here....you move in on others that have not a thing to do with it..raving about bobby..

Cods....Bobby is censoring, suspending and now locking Threads.....all things you accused me of, and condemned me for.

So, where is your condemnation of Bobby?

Secondly....FD makes it very clear.  If you don't like the way a MRB Moderator operates....cease posting in that MRB.  Go post elsewhere.

That is what people are doing.  Precisely what FD has asked of them.

Bobby made his bed.

Yes....I fiercely protect my 'patch' as you call it.  That is my right and I will exercise it.

The GMods thoroughly understand that now, because I took a stand on my own behalf.  The other MRB Mods now benefit from that.

Go and ask him why instead of socking up and coming here specifically to be disruptive. I'm sure you're building up a little influence now amongst some of the members - so consult your minions about the next course of action. Or else you could just be honest and post under your regular nick.

Booby just talks Dubyne and ice age while the globe warms. Should not have been made Mod there and I am trying to find a way the environment could be discussed. What is wrong with that? Do we all have to live in Fantasyland or can some talk reality?

If I have to post environmental matters here I will, but a better solution can be found.

I am sure even some of the morons who voted for Booby to be made Mod there are amazed at how crap he is at modding. If you go against the Dubyne fantasy anybody can abuse you in the Dubyne MRB! Crap!
