There you go, how do you like your new titles MB & Stevey? As you're both members of the Moderator group, you both get the same name.
Hmmmm. Makes us sound like we create problems instead of try to solve them. Think I'd prefer something like 'Diplomatic Diva' 8-). Not sure what the male equivalent for Stevey would be though. Perhaps we should run a 'Name the Moderator' thread? Ask for suggestions and we'll pick the ones we like best.

Well, whichever one you choose will have to be unisex as there is no way of giving you seperate titles!

OK, we'll throw it open to our members for suggestions then. Be gentle, folks. Unisex it has to be, as Stevey probably would object to being called a diva - 'divvy' maybe. [smilie=Tomato_pelt.gif]

i think Taffy has hit the nail the on the head with the "Ego Crazed Dictator" one to be honest..

She tried to sell your Mexico yesterday Taffy..
Then tried to make light if it with a wee joke..

Now if thats not a sign of an ego crazed dictator, then I don;t know what is..

Then tried to make light if it with a wee joke.. Was only trying to be helpful to you both and earn a bit of commission for myself on the side.
Now if thats not a sign of an ego crazed dictator, then I don;t know what is.. To be a dictator you have to dictate. I was only trying to help him sell his heap of scrap....er...sorry...... his beloved project.

unable to tell the difference between right and (clearly) wrong, or always thinks they are right, is that not a dictator? (more or less)

Sheesh! ?No wonder I fear to venture into a chatroom. ?It?s bad enough out here in broad daylight. ?Bear baiting week again. ?I wish I?d been endowed with a whole host of witty responses, but I passed on all my wit to my two sons. ?I?m totally witless now (which should provoke even more complimentary remarks).

And DO I always think I?m right? ?I think you?ll find some of my posts peppered with nuggets that give the impression that I don?t. ?And when I get it wrong, I do own up to it. ?The likes of Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini couldn?t say the same. ?Perhaps I should also try on ?despot? and ?tyrant? for size. ?

Quote: ?Dictators often acquire power in a coup d'?tat, or by suspending the existing constitution. Ordinarily democratic nations may temporarily give dictatorial power to leaders during a state of emergency. The term is normally not applied to absolute monarchs although they generally have the powers of a dictator.

I haven?t couped Taffy?s d?etat nor have I suspended his existing constitution. ?Taffy, being an ordinarily democratic person, gave me dictatorial power during a state of emergency, namely he was too busy with work and his motor. Taffy is the absolute monarch and he has the powers of a dictator, but manages to get away without being called one. Crafty so-and-so, no wonder he dumped it onto me.

[smilie=White_flag.gif] ? Is this part of The Moderator Wars as well? ?Two against one isn't fair. ?I'm not playing then. ?

*stomps off to sulk in a corner*

but I'm not a moderator, so this can't be part of the moderator wars..

anyway, i didn't mean you thought you were always right about everything, i was talking about the Escort Mexico incident.

You've spoiled my fun now.
:icon_sad:


I'll let Stevey continue the war, until I'm called back to arms..

Oh, it hasn't been a total waste of a day then. [smilie=Egyptian_dance.gif]



Still don't get where I've been a dictator in relation to the Mexico. All I did was to proffer it for sale. Had you offered Taffy $1,500 for it, he'd have snatched your hand off (and rushed straight out and bought himself another one). That's good business, not dictatorship.

I like it, got a nice fluffy ring to it :icon_biggrin:

Makes me sound sensitive but thoughtful at the same time.
