But the overall target audience...on the other hand...
Also, I suggest you look at my blog again. There's a reason I only allow 4 posts per page now.

hmmmm.....are you single? ;)
Yes I am single. But I am very emotional invested in a certain girl. I'm not going to girlsammich any names, but she knows this =P
I think you made a post once about working at a place that made hats. Is this true, or am I just remembering things wrong?
Nope, I work at a place that Designs, Constructs, Sells, and Operates

What's your thoughts on my blog?
I like it, I took the time last night to read it, and I went back almost 5 pages in history. I like the mix of wow posts and programming posts. And I love quote boxes. Looks like your blog lets you do what you want. Pretty easily.
Now no more talking about your blog on my Q&A post! You're scaring away the fish!
Cheers,
Hat

Are there any topics that you'd be really cautious about moderating, or that you'd get too emotional over and let other mods handle objectively?
Are there any topics that you really look forward to seeing new posts in?
Are there any questions you'd like to see us ask and is there anything you look forward to seeing or learning from the other Q & As?

Actually the addition of quote boxes is a recent feature. I found some clever
style.css tricks
, and the quote boxes just happened to be one I was interested in. I think Wowhead's quote box system is similar, right?
Thanks for noticing though =)(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##Now no more talking about your blog on my Q&A post! You're scaring away the fish!

Now you've settled in as a moderator are you finding that green text is a bonus or a drawback? Do you think it's changed the way you post? Has it changed your view of the site as a whole?
I was bored so I made this:

If you could add, remove or change one forum rule (for Off Topic only, or the whole site- your choice), what would it be?

I approve of your choice in hat, hat. The Donegal cap or Bowler would also have been acceptable.
Now, we know you speak Spanish and clearly English. But, tlhIngan Hol Dajatlh'a'? A kak naschet russkogo yazyka? Oder vielleicht Deutsch?

I try not to get too emotional when it comes to people using insults like "retarded" on the forums, but I can edit the word out now, so I just do, and its done. It hasn't happened yet, and I don't think it will, but a topic that insults people with disabilities, you will probably see Asakawa greenboxing it, cause I know it would just make me mad.

I like data collection topics.
Just recently
sas148
made a topic about
Beta Access
. I like seeing people contribute in a topic like that.
Are there any questions you'd like to see us ask and is there anything you look forward to seeing or learning from the other Q & As?I really hope people can use my Q&A as a place to come and ask why something was locked, or why a report was declined. I got into moderation because I started talking to Asakawa a lot about moderation and wowhead. He is a consummate professional though, and would never tell me anything he wouldn't tell a regular user. Though sometimes he would taunt me endlessly with inside information that I couldn't know unless my text was green.
So yeah, I like that there could be a way for the moderators to have more direct and open communication with the users, and a topic like this could be that place.
Now you've settled in as a moderator are you finding that green text is a bonus or a drawback? Do you think it's changed the way you post? Has it changed your view of the site as a whole?
The website looks different as a moderator, its full of options that open up when you are one, and it takes a little bit to get used too. It also took a couple weeks to get used to the green text, but I really like it now.
I think I post roughly the same way. I post a bit more cautiously in feedback because my words actually mean something now. Its funny, cause 95% of my posts used to be in the paladin forums, and now they are are all over the site. I still love the paladin crowd, and feel that my posting style in there has not changed at all.
I was bored so I made this:

If you could add, remove or change one forum rule (for Off Topic only, or the whole site- your choice), what would it be?
I've been on other forums that before you could post, you need to read a set of rules. I think a splash screen that new posters would need to see before they post for the first time could be something interesting to add. The problem is making it easy to read, informative, and not intrusive. We want people to come right on the forums and post, we don't want them to need to feel like they are being blocked from that.
Cheers,
Hat
p.s. I feel bad for anyone who quotes this post. 13,831 characters.

When I get the time, I'm going to make some more Wowhead style hat Icons. Those 2 will be on my list.
Now, we know you speak Spanish and clearly English. But, tlhIngan Hol Dajatlh'a'? A kak naschet russkogo yazyka? Oder vielleicht Deutsch?
I speak English
Hablo Español
我说一点点中文
Um pouco de Português
E un po 'di italiano
I recognice Klingon lol, used it in a post the
other day
.
My russian is none existent. Though I have picked up some very nice swears after closing over 500 Russian comment reports.
I only know how to say a couple things in German. Including,
"The scooter, is very important"
and
"The bar is closed on Mondays"

Me encanta el español. Siempre hablo español con mi padre en casa. Es otra razón por la que he visto tantas películas en español y de otros países. No escribo muy bien, así que tengo que usar el ordenador para ayudar me con los acentos. =P

I don't know when I got so into Wowhead. I think it was during the end of WotLK when I started posting as much as I did on the forums. Always in the paladin section though. I love the community here, and am really glad I became a moderator. Wowhead is my #1 link on my Chrome 8 page starter....so I guess that means something too =P
Cheers,

Well, if we're asking questions in Spanish, here are mine: 1) Con qué tipo de acento hablas en español? y 2) ¿Crees que el pájaro es la palabra?(##RESPBREAK##)524##DELIM##MasterOfDisguise##DELIM##

Well, if we're asking questions in Spanish, here's mine: ¿Con qué tipo de acento hablas en español?
Tantos años ya en América, hablo con acento americano malo. Pero antes de que eso, hable un español limpio de Madrid donde nací y de Bilbao de donde nació me padre.
Cheers,
Hat
First warning Hat, you are getting carried away with the Spanish. these forums are English only!
Lol! What you gonna do about it?(##RESPBREAK##)136##DELIM##hatman555##DELIM##*sigh* nothing =[

Excellent! I was going to use that as the only text in the post, but I figured some people might think I'd had a stroke or something. :)

I desperately want to learn Russian, myself. I'm still entertaining hopes of attending the next Winter Olympics, and I think it would impress the hell out of this one girl I occasionally work with... >.>

Those are handy, but you'll also want to master
"Die Sauerkraut ist in mein Hosen. Is ihre Tochter achtzehn?"
Very useful phrases, very useful.
Now for the question. Were we supposed to be asking legitimate questions? o.o

I'm sure the police will appreciate that =P

I'm having way too much fun in this thread, so NO!
