Is it in their nature to maintain order and solve problems.
I have noticed a much smoother operation since the latest British invasion. My compliments.

Well, the sun never sets on their empire... sounds like they run a pretty tight ship.

Reminds me of Family Guy: "If you refuse to go peaceably, we'll have to use our superior linguistic skills to convince you to leave."

Because they are less inclined than other nationalities to be influenced by sycophancy.

I honestly thought you were talking about a different kind of Mod - (that sort of thing happens when you're old)

Something in the water. Or maybe it's just a coincidence?

I'm sure there have been fine mods of all nationalities. We Brits aren't that different to anyone else. I can think of several Brits who I've banned who wouldn't have made good moderators! :lol:

I wouldn't make a good moderator, despite being British! I'd probably ban everyone who's opinion differed from mine! How rubbish would that be!

Moderators here?

Because a lot of the members here are from the UK, so they know what they are going through I guess. :scratch:

i think it's all proportional to the level of scruffiness.
