A new moderator: TxRedneck

[Bob at WeldingMag]

Friends,

I'm pleased to announce that we have added a new moderator at WeldingWeb. He's no stranger -- though he'd probably be the first to say he's strange. :D

Give a shoutout to TxRedneck, new moderator. But you can just call him Sir.

Tx has over 1,300 posts since joining the community in early 2005 -- so many, in fact, that you might ask what he actually does all day. He's got great insights and knowledge; he's one of the first people to welcome new members; and he's just been fun to have around.

In his role as a moderator, Tx joins Smithboy as an official presence to help manage threads, answer questions, resolve problems and pretty much anything else that we make up as we go along.

Don't hesitate to give him a warm howdy.

[TxRedneck]

Thanks guys :D

[DDA52]

I have to admit that it is getting better and better here. I turned my back on this site when the former powers got power crazy. I am glad it is all turned around and moving foreward. :drinkup: :drinkup: :drinkup:

I forgot to mention...I am strange :D But thats whats soo wonderful about Me :laugh:
I think my strangeness keeps me sane :dizzy:

[elvergon]

hey Tx, glad for you, you really deserve it...keep us achieving knowledge =)!

[TxRedneck]

Lol Thanks Elvergon. Well you know its all on y'all to achieve your own knowledge. Theres information out there. The hands who have experienced are like pools of oil just waiting to be tapped. Y'all just got to continue to open up, ask questions, and dont be shy. There are no dumb or stupid questions.

[coachgeo]

TxR; between you and Smitty who is the sidekick and who is the straight one? LOL

Speaking from experience I'ld say you two are good choices

[TxRedneck]

We are equals..and so are y'all all in my opinion....we just help out in a role that is hopefully rarely called upon.

[Joker11]

Dangit, more moderators mean more supervision....how am I going to get away with my fiendish jokes now?
That rocks. Way to go TX!
Hey, I say someday we all get together in the middle of the country for a weekend barbeque and welding demonstration. We can invite all the competing manufacturers to demo their products to those who so feverishly support them. I don't want to go to a convention in LasVegas with a bunch of guys I never hear from. I want to hang out with all you retards! Let's set a date!

[TxRedneck]

lol Joker...sounds goood...as far as supervision and not telling your jokes...My supervision is to keep you inline and telling your fiendish jokes...if youre not telling jokes I figure youve gotten into real trouble:gunsfirin

[Pentawelder]

I have to get onto a British welding forum to escape from The honorable Redneck. OK, congratulations Chris the second great decision by Bob!!!
Notice I didn't mention leaving the fox in charge of the chicken house.

[TxRedneck]

LMAo the honorable lmao youve got the wrong hick lmao

[TxRedneck]

but thanks for the compliments :D I do appreciate it

[ctardi]

Wow Tex...

Should have put you under some contract over on the 'other' WW. ;)

:)

[Pentawelder]

Look out Cam, you may be next!

Gordon

[ctardi]

:eek:

[Diverbill45]

Chris (TexRed), ............ Sorry, I just noticed that you were the new man in the HOT seat. I told you my eyesight was going.:eek: Congrats on the promotion. Does this position come with perks, such as free air fare to visit all the associates of this site? You know, you must strive to keep all associates HAPPY, it's good business. If it does, let me be the first to invite you to the northern west bank, to celebrate your promotion. I can see a party in the making.:D :D

[TxRedneck]

Lol Thanks Bill, its a small thing really. Most of everyone is mature enough on here to hold their own.....:D Heck I prolly need more moderating than most lol
Party would be fun :D

[DDA52]

Uh, Chris.....you were moderated if memory serves.:eek: :dizzy: :D


Seems like I got moderated as well. Still have a copy of the email and the post that caused it.........:laugh:

[TxRedneck]

lol I got a copy of mine too ... i think :D

I think you're on to something. Our hands are a little full at the moment to do anything official, but give us some time. And give us some suggestions on how much we'll neeed to pay in advance to local law enforcement, whereever this happens to occur.

[DDA52]

Law enforcement????? Whatcha planning there, Bob??:eek: :eek: :help:


:D :D :drinkup:

[TxRedneck]

lmao haha

[Bob at WeldingMag]

Law enforcement????? Whatcha planning there, Bob??:eek: :eek: :help:


:D :D :drinkup:

I'm not planning anything. But I've taken my full measure of all of you. :dizzy: I'm pretty sure that if this community undertakes any kind of physical gathering, 911 dispatch is going to get a workout. ;)

[zapster]

what fun!

ok who will cook?:drinkup:

...zap!

Hmmmmm. You hear that, Chris?? Your reputation precedes you. LOL.:D :D ;)


:drinkup:

[TxRedneck]

YEs well you knw they will be callin in the natty guard Im sure :D

[halbritt]

Wow, I'm gone for a couple of days and come back to find Chris as a moderator? What is the world coming to?

Heck I prolly need more moderating than most

I'll say.

[TxRedneck]

lol yes its rather ironic isnt it....? :D

[TPnTX]

HA! thats great! I love it!

You need to start going down your list.

banned ....Banned....Bannded. take that you...

hehe ... not really.

can I curse now?

Tp

[TxRedneck]

lol yeah just not that one word lol

[scott brunsdon]

Wow, I'm gone for a couple of days and come back to find Chris as a moderator? What is the world coming to?

Heath, it's a tactic. I remember from my school teaching days if there was a problem kid we'd make him a class captain or something like that. It worked a treat. They took to the position of perceived authority with enormous enthusiasm. Of course, sometimes that enthusiasm did tend to present itself as fascism. It made things interesting.
Scott

[smithboy]

Same thing happens in my area with police and sheriff. All you need to have to become law enforcement is a problem with authority. Most of the cops where I grew up spent most of their time evading police when they were kids. :D

[scott brunsdon]

Yes, troubled kids make great cops - they know all the tricks.

[iroc]

Congradulations Tx. The time you spend in here helping us is greatly appreciated.:drinkup:

[TxRedneck]

Thanks....I tend to create more trouble than Im worth, but oh well Bob still likes me for some unknown reason. Oh well its fun and I do enjoy seeing folks learn. With a lil luck it will stay that way
