Should the TT moderators carry guns?

I think that every Toytown event should be assigned it's own moderator. Some people regularly step over the mark and it should up to the mod-squad to step in when needed. It might be necessary to draft in some new ones because the workload on the existing crew.

But guns, bloody big ones too to provide a decent visible presence. I'd like to suggest this to Editor Bob but I don't really know a lot about guns. I prefer to shout at people and the roundhouse them to the throat in Chuck Norris stylee. So, I did a Google search for 'Moderator' and 'guns' to see what they use in other places and came up with the Benelli M4, the LNIB Savage Striker and a silenced pistol (see pics below).

What do you guys think? Would you go with the firearms below, something different, perhaps tasers or the like, the ability to give a strong talking to, or something else entirely. Perhaps you don't think that the Stitch n Bitch event needs a moderator present, whatever, would like to read your thoughts.

if u don't like the gun laws here, start your own country...

Who said anything about gun laws? See, if we'd had this discussion in the pub then a Mod could have stepped in and blown your head off for not staying on topic. That's why the idea has such merit.

By definition, it should have a silencer !!!

I think supporters should have the right to bear arms as well

Nooo! Toytown is scary enough as is.

I think a Magna-ported handbag should be the weapon of choice for a roving moderator around town.

Maybe not guns...but muzzles would be great...Just in case, you know, of a drunken emergency.

Why? I would have thought for example that the distinctive sound of an AK47 assault rifle being fired would serve as a warning to all and sundry to buck up their ideas quick smart.


I pulled up my sleeves only yesterday.

Scary!!
Nah, mind-reading can be fun, but if you read mine you'd probably start crying with boredom. So no, get out of it.

Edited out.

I want a right to bare arms, and legs, and my tummy if I want, not to mention other parts of my body not referred to in polite conversation. Change the weather, dammit!

A potentially more legal but admittedly less satisfying alternative: The Neuralyzer.

Nuclear handgrenades. If you absolutely positively have to have the last word in a discussion..

By definition, it IS a silencer.

woof.

A taser could have been handy the other night Keydeck when you brought your Irish mate into the Arc. Or a water pistol, at least.

But sure, guns, tasers. Sounds good. I've heard violent moderation is all the rage this year anyway. It's the new black.

how about Napalm, but only for use in the morning.

Talk about the Wild, Wild West...

Happiness is a warm gun...

Isn't Hitler the nuclear hand-grenade of internet forums?

In any case, I would assume they will need a snipery sort of weapon. Some sort of 50 caliber thing that turns the plebs into a bloody mist without anyone knowing where the shot came from.

Let's face it, it's not about the guns, it's about fear. What you need to rule is a populace that's scared to step out of line. Have you seen the streets in Singapore? Canings and executions are what we need to put the fear of Bob into this lot.

The fear of Bob, I like it.

I would be up fora caning if I can choose a ttgirl to administer it.

I think we should just start inviting this guy along:

Bobhead.

Based on former Marine ********** best selling book about his pre Discussion Topic experiences in Toytown Munich.

Well played, sir. [img]http://www.keithball.net/img/smileys/sword2.gif[/img]

are those two having a cock fight?

Interesting. Do they look like cocks to you?

Got this this morning. Decide for yourselves if it's OT or not.

The Hit Man

Two old friends were just about to tee off at the first hole of their local golf course when a guy carrying a golf bag called out to them, "Do you mind if I join you? My partner didn't turn up."

"Sure," they said, "You're welcome."

So they started playing and enjoyed the game and the company of the newcomer. Part way around the course, one of the friends asked the newcomer, "What do you do for a living?" "I'm a hit man," was the reply.

"You're joking!" was the response.

"No, I'm not," he said, reaching into his golf bag, and pulling out a beautiful sniper's rifle with a large telescopic sight. "Here are my tools."

"That's a beautiful telescopic sight," said the other friend, "Can I
take a look? I think I might be able to see my house from here." So
he
picked
up the rifle and looked through the sight in the direction of his house.

"Yeah, I can see my house all right. This sight is fantastic. I can see right in the window. Wow, I can see my wife in the bedroom. Ha Ha, I can see she's naked!! Wait a minute, that's my neighbor in there with her...

He's naked, too!!! The b*tch!"

He turned to the hitman, "How much do you charge for a hit?"

"I'll do a flat rate, for you, one thousand dollars every time I pull the trigger."

"Can you do two for me now?"

"Sure, what do you want?"

"First, shoot my wife, she's always been mouthy, so shoot her in the mouth."

"Then the neighbor, he's a friend of mine, so just shoot his d*ck off to teach him a lesson."

The hitman took the rifle and took aim, standing perfectly still for a few minutes.

"Are you going to do it or not?" said the friend impatiently.

"Just be patient," said the hitman calmly, "I think I ca n save you a grand here..."

Me and my mechanical sword cock say, great...!

naa guns are too hands-off. if we are all really devoted to the cause of Toytown we need to prove it. i suggest suicide-bomb posters. we simply walk into a thread post "ed bob al akbahr" and the thread and all in it are instantly deleated. (can somebody work the code out)

A fatwa lot of good that's going to do Gideon.

With any more one-liners like that, I think I'll be the first suicide bomber!

The first amendment to the TT constitution

"YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO BARE ARMS OR THE RIGHT TO HARM BEARS. WHICHEVER YOU FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE WITH"

This is my usual weapon of choice...

"guns for show, knives for a pro"

you worry me sometimes pootle.

Even with ironic mode on it's kind of "other world thinking" for me. Ever looked into a loaded gun, not just played doom? We don't need weapon here, a bit of brain and heart will do fine as well.

Kung Fu Fighting. Weapons are for chicken-shits.

Guns!!! They should have f*cking light sabres.

Spilled out on the ground, like?
No need to go too crazy, buddy. Calm yourself.

Sorry, the *hugs* thread has been deleted. The guns thread took its place.

oh come one, have a bit of brain and heart...

Only if Don Riina gives me advice on the best way to cook them

That sounds a lot like "oh, come on and have a bit of mince pie", well I'm not falling for that one again. Do you know what's in a mince pie?

Take out the "n" and I guess we getting closer non?

IW you are a dangerous man, a weapon of mass. but not being a code-ape i impressed. but does it work.

I am not willing to try, as either it will not and I will be miserable or it will work in which case I will misuse its awesome power. *strokes pussy*

It interferes with the Hajj application and a possible reboot is necessary. Just tried it out, even runs under Windoze!

I would like to see the definition of the IsThreadCrap function though, seems where thats all the magic happens.

If any guy was posting on TT while stroking my p*ssy, you bet I would use a gun!

I think Scogs would beat you to it. But I'm sure his gun is a bazooka compared to the rest of ours so we none of us I think will be coming anywhere close to stroking your pussy.

Did I slip off the edge?
