So, about two years back, I was passing through NYC with the crew and we stopped by this restaurant. Honestly? The food was top-tier. The servers were super attentive, too. They even had these baklava desserts that were absolutely elite. And the lamb... man, it was delicious. Mmmm. We definitely didn't leave hungry.http://www.restoran-lampion.com/They actually offered some modern fusion dishes as well, but I guess I’m just a total farm girl at heart because I stuck to the lamb, onions, and a cold beer. The rest of the group went for the Italian-style dishes and soups.

Linda Young38, just keep typing. Honestly, who cares about those paired-up types? It’s all the same to them anyway—they're probably just sitting there itching for some guy like Usovac to show up so they can finally have some fun trolling him. 🙂 🙂

Hey, are you actually busy, or have you escaped to some hippie commune in Woodstock where everyone’s just vibing and making out?

Don't you worry, Josh isn't going to show up here. I can guarantee that.

The main thing is that everyone is flocking to Josh, yet this thread remains completely empty

i pimpeke 🤣

Jack Peterson78, I’m honestly just exhausted by all of this. It’s getting to the point where it actually makes me feel a bit sick. And you know what the absolute best part is? The peak of the whole experience? It’s when they start trying to pressure me into believing it, too.

Honestly, Carl Mitchell31, once you really go off on someone here, it’s pretty much game over for them forever.

And look, I think we can all admit that there are those moments in life where you just want to cut the cord, unplug everything, and simply vanish. 😁 I guess I’ve been having quite a few of those moments over the last couple of months myself. 😁

So here I am, just scrolling through and catching up on 😁

It hasn't been long since you've been back, but then again, I was gone for four years myself... just take care of yourself... I know that feeling all too well...🙂

I mean, this guy is just completely out here making things up on the forum, whatever that's supposed to mean.

To me, that voice sounds much more like a priest's 😍

Grace Sanders24, I guess you've got a point there. They have their own little moderator corner over there, so they can brag all they want. Honestly, the only reason I even hang out in the Off section is because of the mods—though I suppose I shouldn't be here just to give them a pat on the back.

Good grief, you're actually still kicking. I honestly thought you had passed on—I was actually planning on holding a little memorial service for you one of these days. I mean, they keep dropping all these new mods over on Off, so I just figured Damon had finally shuffled off to that great hunting lodge in the sky.

Drew Ross2 said:Look, just like the opening post mentions, this thread is strictly for sending a boa greeting. We aren't going to turn this into a debate about moderation policies from other subreddits; if you have grievances with how certain sections are handled, go take it up with the Federal Reserve. If you're unhappy with some specific part of the rules, 😉

You're absolutely right, Ruby. I think Brenda Green62 is going to be an incredible moderator, and she'll probably be flying solo and handling all her duties perfectly in no time at all 👋

Yeah, but we can still talk about boobs 🤣

Grace Sanders24 said:I mean, if I hadn't known, even though I've known her for ages... man, if I had actually realized she was a quad, my whole perspective would have been totally different. Honestly, knowing that now just makes her seem like such a more profound, high-quality person to me. 🍿

🤣

Brenda Green62 said:That isn't going to happen here; I’m sticking strictly to Louise's moderation style.👍

Having a new moderator doesn't automatically mean we're rewriting the rulebook.
In this specific instance, it's really just about adding some extra muscle to our leadership team, that's all. 🎉

But hey, as long as we're all on the same page, I guess it doesn't matter.

Kimberly Rodriguez51 said:The forum and academia 😁

Well, okay, when I mentioned "academia," I wasn't necessarily talking about being enrolled in a university or anything. I just meant that when you're posting on specific topics upstairs, you really have to engage that part of your brain dedicated to grammar and proper structure. And, well, since I grew up in a household where we didn't exactly prioritize formal American English rules, I guess I struggle with that side of things more often than I'd like to admit.

Brenda Green62 said:satisfy 🙂

Thanks, ladies 🙂

4, is that enough to qualify for moderation? 🤔

ironcobra13, I get the feeling you’re not exactly thrilled about my new moderator status, so I wanted to reach out—not as a mod, but just as one of the regular users here.

What’s the actual issue? What specifically feels different now?
Aside from clearing out some spam and posting a single warning regarding some insults, I haven't really done anything else yet.

Look, I don't have anything against you personally, but I do have an issue with this rigid, broken moderation style on the forum. It’s incredibly inflexible, and they tend to throw everyone into the same bucket like we're all just mindless robots. You're new; you just started. Honestly, I can't even find a reason to be upset with you if I tried. I don't know you, and that's pretty much it.

Kimberly Rodriguez51, the Academy section of this forum is actually quite strict; you’re expected to stick strictly to the designated topics over there.
But here in the off-topic lounge, things are a bit more relaxed. Though, if I’m being honest, I’ve noticed even this area isn't quite what it used to be. It’s definitely lost some of its old charm, I suppose.

Good grief, is this supposed to be an official thread for sending the moderator a Greeting card, or are we just all here to throw compliments around at random?🤣
