As Noah become drunk with witnessing the carnage of the flood combined with survivors guilt, it is a teachable moment to wonder what carnage and guilt moderators have endured.
I support the mods, human and programmatic, 100%. I would never presume to question them in public, and I am astonished that you have. They deserve more respect than to be called haywire drunkards. They're volunteers, after all.

I salute Ivanhoe for his keen observation.

RESOLVED: The moderators are usually drunk. Do you want the affirmative or the negative ala the "Is NicolaiS dead" thread?
Originally posted by darvlayI think that Ivanhoe killed his fellow countryman in a moment of religious or political passion. That explains why Nicolai hasn't been heard from in several weeks, and why Ivanhoe went missing for a time, as he needed to keep a low profile.
By the way, Scribbles, what were you referring to when you said Ivanhoe whacked Nicolai?
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesNot the answer I was expecting, but okay!

I wonder, what would Ivanhoe kill for? Money? A woman?
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesVery well, I'll take the affirmative. Ivanhoe has exhibited an uncanny ability in the past to ascertain exactly what the mods and Russ were thinking; he seems to have some cosmic source of information mere mortals like us are not privy to. If Ivanhoe states that the mods are drunkards, I'm willing to accept it as an infallible statement of the RHP faith much like a papal letter on matters of religious doctrine. Ivanhoe has never been known to speak ill of anyone unless he was 100% correct in his statement, ergo as Ivanhoe stated the mods were drunks we have no choice but to accept his Word.
The negative of course. I axiomatically support the moderators 100%, as we all should. The hypothesis that their behavior is due to drunkenness and not impeccable judgment should not even be raised, much less supported in the affirmative in debate.
