Glass houses my 30,000 post friend
You're kidding, right?? In the time I've been on this forum you've easily racked up double my posts on your multiple accounts. And that's just on this forum alone!!

Glass houses indeed.
Actually the records will indicate that you've racked up 30, 000 posts since June 2012, I've got 1/3rd of that in only 1 year less. You're going at a clip of 10, 000 per year!
For me? Around half that.
You literally post twice for every post I make!
Come off it, pal. You only started using the Pigman account full-time late last year. Whatever you're trying to sell, nobody's buying.

Any person who nominates Sam Backo as their favorite player surely is a dude! :lol:

I nominated Big Sam because my most notable act on the footy field involved an incredible sledge on Sammy back in the day.

Can we have a 'Mandatory Name Change' award?
If so, I'd like to nominate Deadly Ed Lee, love the bloke but didn't he skip out on a forum bet? Can't have that, leads to anarchy.
If I'm wrong then I deeply apologise, and nominate Cranky Old Man, simply because of the recent discussion about his name, so he springs to mind, sorry.

Avatar/Signature of the Year: Huh? I’ve got a hat.
Newbie of the Year: Is El Capitano new? There’s got to be a winner (sorry, El Capo old mate…).
Underrated poster: Cat, I see what I cut and pasted on also said Cat but my reason is that I like a vaguely different perspective [shhh – I mean girls] but more importantly I don’t think it should be shoved off into a little box to the side – I say Cat’s insight is underrated. Yeah it's got all clumsy now. I vote Cat.
Matt Elliott Medal: Funniest Poster Reptar – I mean, how can we not reward such desperation.
Rivalry of the Year; Raiders victories versus Bileduct.
Obsession of the Year: Charlie and Ricky’s non-selection of former Logan blokes.
Quality over quantity: Edwahu
Best Football Brain: It seems odd to me that someone could lose their brain over the years, that is, that the best football brain could gradually succumb to sclerosis, but I’m not going to give this to RedRaider because there’s only so many ways he can say “If we could defend everything would be solved” and I can say “I agree”. Sorry Red, that’s why I’m going to go with the slightly more offbeat musings of Stuat. Doesn’t mean Red can’t win it back!
Best Thread/Regular Feature of the Year: [Insert Raider name] after 11 am on ABC Grandstand. Because it meant I didn’t have to get out of bed till at least 12.
Daley C Poster of the Year: Well that’d be me. Or failing that, someone else. Er, how about Matt?
The Missing in Action Award: Michael and Albi. And even Rodman (though a certain thread enticed him back…). I miss Albi, I was supposed to meet him once but he stood me up. I was looking forward to meeting a man I met on the internet. And explaining it to my wife.
Worst Thread: Statistically, this would be any thread that was started and merged without a single reply – hence it’s unavailable to me to identify. Anecdotally, it would be a thread not started by greeneyed…

No it's a good thing! I like your posts but I didn't actually do the obvious thing and check your joining date - and I don't know that May 2014 will cut it - so maybe I should apologize for that. I have now answered my own question thanks to soberessness... and yours. Unless we demand a ruling.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.
