I actually have a question for the Mods. Do you guys go by a schedule? or is it just assumed at least one of you guys will be online?


It is all random. 

WHAT!  You guys told me I needed to be on 24-7 ;)




Hey, you are the one that got the 30% raise.

Plus time and a half for hours spent while I should be paying attention to my job (double pay for neglecting my children while they're playing with sharp objects)

Wow, I didn't imagine this site being that profitable. Not that it's not a great site, because it is. I just thought figured it cost a lot to maintain

Ok one more:

Now do you guys know Jeff personally and when he started up the site he asked you guys to join? Or did you all start off as posters?



I was a poster.  IP, Don, and Redz were all posters when they were asked.  


I believe Roy, Edgar and Chris were all just poster to begin with.

 I thought you guys were all buddies from high school/college or something. Interesting.


I have never meet any of them in real life.

You guys should rent out a hall and do a "Celticsblog Mod night" or something.

Green17 and I went to college together (same graduation year and everything) but didn't know each other.  That's hard to do in a student body of less than 1900.

But yeah, most of the associations among the staff here are internet based.  We're all on good terms, but we tend to live several hundred miles apart.

Redz is pulling your leg.  Our immense salaries are a topic of frequent humor. ;)

Wow what a small world.

Did you at least look him up in your yearbook to make sure you didn't see him around and not realize it? (I'm assuming this was for your undergrad)

There's no set schedule.  We have very good coverage during the day, and late night at least one of us tends to be around.  Rarely, something will come up when one of us isn't around, but usually, we catch stuff before it escalates.

Doesn't hurt that there are at least a few who don't seem to sleep  ;)

Hey look at that, Steve got his first star. Don't you guys have a Mod ritual or something when this happens? ;D

We could call it quintuple time!  Anything times zero is still zero.  I think the one thing we all have in common is a passion for the site, and that is something money can't buy (well, maybe it could, but for the sake of my point let's just say it couldn't)
Yup

Yup

Yeah, Steve owes all of us a coffee and a carwash.  In Wdleehi's case, a beer (or seven).

can we have more obscenities and dirty words allowed here from now on? And, if not, could you, perhaps, direct me to more disreputable and smut-filled celtics blog?







in the meantime, here are some dirty words that you CAN say on Celtics blog (i think):

buttox

dingleberry

ta-ta's

crap

orgasmic

fart

vasectomy

diarrhea

hoochie-coo

lube

bumbum

knockers

shmuck

panties

cropusculant (well...least it sounds dirty, that is)

arse

rectum

cornhole

poon

kobe bryant (well, same thing)

Awww I just tried to respond on my trolled thread but it got locked  :(

Yep, apparently you're not allowed to make jokes about Celtics players, rather you can only poke fun at players who are non-Celtics. ::)

Absolutely correct.  That's why this place is called Celticsblog; fans of other teams are not permitted to insult our players.

Please confine future criticism of our rules to personal messages, or to the dedicated thread in the Comments and Remarks forum.  Regarding this thread, I'd ask you to stay on topic.

Yup. Blind homerism and intolerance are acceptable here; more imporant than impartiality or a sense of humor. Racism, homophobia, mysogyny, and the like, directed against other teams' players and fans, are just fine. Poking fun at a Celtic player is often unacceptable, even when it's harmless, and whether it's actually warranted by an impartial view of the facts is totally irrelevent.

You can usually go off-topic or stretch the rules if it's pro-Celtics off-topic or pro-Celtics rule stretching; otherwise the mods may spank you.
