The Warriors Stood in the Shape of a Heart
An anonymous reader writes "Here's a picture of Warsingers funeral. Warsinger was an in-game persona in the rather good MMORPG Dark Age of Camelot". and generally well-liked.
The real person behind Warsinger was a 32-year-old with heart trouble, who really died.
So the players on his server organized an in-game
funeral.At the funeral, players from the three realms of Camelot, who normally kill each other gleefully on sight, stood in the shape of a heart (check the pic above); the two figures in the center of the heart are Warsinger's real-life sister and girlfriend."
I am in the UK, have been visiting for, well who knows how long now and have been a moderator quite a few times (still remember the shock the first time it happened). iirc you have to wait till your member ID drops within a certain percentage of the total IDs. It's something like when your ID falls withing the lower 80% of the IDs then your ID will be dropped into the mod pool. It's more than likely in the FAQs somewhere.
That's funny, I usually have mod points at least three times a month. Slashdot is my start page and I usually read two or three articles a day, but seldom post.
And every 10 days or so, I have to look for a way to blow my 5 mod points.
Like jdavidb said, you need to visit less often and post less often.
