Is it really only 2 years? Christ. Feels like you've been on VT forever.

Ok, do you ever get tempted to make an alt account to reply to a stupid thread that really doesn't deserve to be bumped but you've got just the best reply in mind?
to clarify: I do not do this

I remember you as a ST! :yes: :penguinhug:
Yep we can still UR and card if necessary
outside our section (I often lurk around a bit in L&S for instance. Omg those threads :lol: ) - e.g. but we can if noone from that section is around/or at night :yep:
I have perms in all of Entertainment and Chat although luckily Entertainment doesn't have many trolls thankfully :biggrin:
I was still a CA when ST became VT though :smile:

Hey Chronoscope - yes, I remember you as a CA - you've been an ST for a while now, haven't you? Glad you stepped up to it :smile: That all sounds pretty similar then to what I remember - I didn't know if the CT had taken most of the modding away from the VT. I certainly remember it as a conversation when Jack was still on the CT, and it causing some consternation.

As you say, you're saved from the worst of the trolling in Entertainment. Chat needs as many STs as can be thrown at it. But can you imagine being an ST in D&CA...

Yes, @04MR17 - you truly deserve a medal. :laugh:

Arguably D&CA is fairly inactive, loads of crap gets stuck in the chat pre-moderation queue every few hours. D&CA gets a few threads every couple of days.

MR does a great job but so does Chrono, Laura and a lot of others.

I don't even remember you being a FH, never mind an ST. Did you have a different username or something?

Completely agree :smile:
what's UR? :colondollar:
Original post by Reality Check
Can ST still UR?
Can ST still card (blue and black) outside their forum
(related to the above) how much moderation now does the ST have.

ST is nicer than VT, so I'm sticking with it.

Urgent report. It's a way of 'hiding' a post before it's removed from the site by the CT fully. It's really useful for stuff which you can't delete there and then but is obviously rule breaking (spam, porn, breach of trust, safeguarding - that sort of thing).

It's the only perm I wish I had back sometimes. You know when you see stuff that's horrific and think 'I need to delete that NOW'.

ohhh, thanks. I had never seen that acronym used to describe it before :tongue:
How does it feel to be inferior to us? :u:
Do you get to see who's behind anon? What do I need to do to be able to see who's behind anon lol

Now that is something I think which has been removed from the VT. You used to be able to see who was behind Anon across the site, regardless of your perms.

Officially I am supposed to tell you that the answer is no.
I would love to be more detailed and tell you the correct answer............

Beautifully done :smile:

Thank you for giving us the official answer to that question.

WHY DON'T PEOPLE IN THEIR TWENTIES JOIN SOCIAL GROUPS, MR!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :frown:

:innocent:

Please don't hurt me :afraid:

Perhaps because they are socially anxious? :hide:

Although they’re not used much anymore, which is your favourite of the 26 social groups in your profile? :beard:

Well I shall rule out the essay squad immediately, I set that up in about 2015 and never did anything with it. :redface:
A nod of appreciation goes out to the Comic Sans MS Appreciation society.
However, I think my favourite has to be the Counters Society, which I sort of help to push along in the early days of 2015 (I started counting during Part 7 of CTAM :colondollar:).
