On a forum, a moderator is a kind of boss.
As long as the TOS aren't broken I can't see there being a problem. I've made it this far so they don't seem too strict or unreasonable. But then it is early days....

Perhaps it should be recited as Patimokkha even tho i don't think it is quite up to par and apparently contradictory in meaning.

I did not suggest it as a gesture of honouring the moderators per se.. not saying you aren't worthy of honours but it was more in connection to
Please accept my sincere commiserations.
The stuff you have to deal with is just incredible imho.

It is quite interesting that you expect to be honoured for having a green name. Some mods don't even seem to know the difference between an Arahant and a Sotapanna...
The path of the humourist is indeed a hard one, beset with difficulties on every side... :toilet:
