But mods should lie in the shadows, we should not know who locked a thread, we do not need an annoying comment saying we are children for posting something you don't agree with. Lock it, or leave it..don't bitch about it.

I very much agree with this....

This is what makes a GOOD mod.

Notice how mod(s) we had respect for.....I.e - Spooge, never posted after locking a thread?

That was the way to do it.

I think only a few people on this forum can pull off the authority figure, and they CAN'T begin as one of us, unless they've had our respect as some kind of authority figure from the beginning.

You just can't give someone the respect required to mod/admin a forum out of nowhere, if they started as just a mere fellow forum member.
