back to article Moderatrix kisses the Reg goodbye

In news sure to send the massed ranks of Reg commenters running for the tissue box for the other reason, the Moderatrix is packing up her paddles and departing for dungeons new. Yes, I shall be leaving you all to fight amongst yourselves after the best part of four years at the well of IT shoutpouring. It's been an education, …

      No points on her fingers though - must be a lesbian :P

      Just thought I'd throw in a parting shot. Very sad to see you go Ms. Bee, very sad.

      ... I can't imagine why someone would down vote SuperTim, but to each his/her own.

        That would be because

        The upvotes were at 69, and to add to that would be a crime.

        re I can't imagine why someone would down vote SuperTim

        Blinded by tears, and racked with uncontrollable sobs, the unfortunate commentards could not control the mouse cursor with any precision, resulting in an horrific downvote of a splendid sentiment.

        Good luck Sarah, in whatever venture you undertake.

        It is obvious that both of Sarah Palin's supporters read the Reg comments.

      Why should she - it is more material for her "proper job"

      Well, those of us who have looked up Sarah Bee on LinkedIn the past have always been wondering wtf is she doing moderating these:

      http://www.dilbert.com/2011-06-26/

      My guess is - she has been collecting material.

      Guys and gals - I am betting a case of beer that we should expect a book any time soon.

    Stop

    Don't go! They'll double your pay!

    Title says it all - if "they" say they won't, there's an army of commentards who'll storm Vulture Central and open filing cabinet drawers and leave them in a dangerous, open position for unsuspecting hacks to bash shins, elbows and foreheads on, fling stacks of papers recklessly and without care to the floor, stuff plasticine down the vending machine coin slot and add itching powder to the coffee granules...

    But, just slightly more seriously (about as serious as you are about missing the place), all the best, your distinctive style of loving^H^H^H^H^H^H abusive moderation will leave a constant pang of emptiness for all who post shit in future.....

      As unfeminine as Asley is unmanly I suppose.

      Possibly the Beatles were wrong, of course. And on the subject of wrongness: she says the comments were "ulcer-inducing"... It's a complete myth that ulcers are caused by stress or other mental factors; it's Heliobacter pylori that does it.

    I can't wait for the day when comments are silenced. Then I'll be free to pursue my dream of opening a cake shop in Penrith (one that serves fine wine, obviously).
