Who is the Moderator here now ?

**digger doug** · 11-05-2019, 07:48 AM

The real Leigh has passed, the sign out front has not been updated.

**LockNut** · 11-05-2019, 09:20 AM

Looks like we have our new volunteer.

Me think not.

Gordon?

I almost was going to say why would metrology need a mod, then I remember getting ripped on as being a stuck in my ways dinosaur by our resident troll because I didn't trust digital calipers.

From a thread down the page a little, ElGordo posted this:
"I'm changing the thread title slightly.

Inspection reports to customers."

Moderators are allowed to do that.

Seriously? digger doug, you spend a lot of time policing the forums already. Why not taking on the moderation job for one forum?

I'm sure I didn't quite express it like that although that was probably what I thought.

A caliper, be it vernier, dial or digital, does what no other measuring tool can do considering the price.

As to not "trusting" a digital caliper then to me that indicates you have never bought a new decent one or you don't know what they can and can't do.

In Europe you would be regarded as a dinosaur.

Give Milicron time. Leigh did a good job so no need to rush things.

Relax, I haven't volunteered

IMO you should.
You like to be here and know more than a bit about this stuff so you are the likely candidate.

The "troll that should be banned" your recommending ?

The inmates are truly running the ass-eye-lumn.

Before anyone else agrees, please know that moderators can't be put on the ignore list. Please don't do that to the rest of us.

**plastikdreams** · 11-05-2019, 06:19 PM

I'll do it, I have a hidden passion for the weather.

If I were moderator I wouldn't ban you but I most certainly would delete posts like that. It serves no useful purpose.

If you or others don't have anything to post that's metrology relevant then you're trolling. Leigh wouldn't have tolerated it so show respect.

I didn't know that, and I sure wish people would stop quoting the few people I am ignoring.

"Policing" ???

I simply suggest, to try and get the OP a better answer, more helpful outcomes.

You wouldn't want me to have the "keys".

I hoped it had been mutually agreed to contain our waste landfill within one subforum. And it wasn't Metrology.

Not that this is a democracy, but I also vote for Gordon. He's active here, he knows his stuff, and I think he'd help keep threads from running off track.

You should read other threads and see how often he goes off topic.
