happy birthday to "667s Original Emo Kid" and edgar allen poe enthusiast Songbird !
founder of the annual 667 Summer Book Club, our second-longest serving moderator is known for her threads such as The Last Time, The Relentless Counting Game and Adolf Hitler? Birthday Cake? WTF?

A SPECIAL INTERVIEW
Akbar: Could you breifly describe how you became a mod, and give me some information about your tenure?
Songbird: During the temporary mod thing I correctly answered all of the questions swans asked, so she made me a temporary mod for a couple of weeks. Later, they chose what I thought (and I'm still unsure of) was a real mod for the games section. I noticed that that mod was never online and PMed Trag asking if I could take his place. And that's how I got my section.
Akbar: Alright, now before we go into more opinionated and personal questions, could you just tell me exactly what happened? There are lots of rumours and different versions going around, and I think we all need the matter to be cleared up a little.
Songbird:Basically what happened was that I asked Trag a few months after I became a mod if I could be allowed in the restricted section. He said no, and I left it alone. Then I asked some mods (who I forgot) why I wasn't allowed in the section. I was told that Trag believed I blackmailed him. Apparently he told the mods that I blackmailed him with something and that's why I wasn't allowed in the section. A bit later I brought it up again, saying it wasn't fair that member of the month was chosen by ALL the board mods, and we got into a discussion as to why he wouldn't let me in the restricted section. I also addressed the issue of the blackmailing, to which Trag responded: It was a joke. (not a direct quote I'm just writing; what I remember) The conclusion of that discussion was that I was not allowed in the restricted section because my section was deemed unimportant by him, and that I didn't blackmail him.
Akbar: One more question about that: were the mods involved or not? This is a question which I've been pondering for ages, and I'd really like to know the truth.
Songbird: Most of my friends on 667 are mods that have access to the section. I was told by one of them that Trag started a thread in the restricted section asking whether or not I should be allowed in. The majority of them said that I should be allowed in, and my friend even provided evidence with the times I had shown a great deal of responsibility for my section. As far as I know, the matter was abandoned by Trag some months ago. So basically the mods were involved in some way but apparently their opinions did not sway Trag's.
Shockingly, two very different members, PJ and Songbird, have decided to e-wed each other. Congratulations to the happy couple.
So after ....at least 3 years? Tragedy and I are finally friends. Which is good.
YAY
Thanks for taking the time to get to know me
Linda Rhaldeen : Songbird started a motorcycle girl gang, but I was an honorary member so it wasn't "all-girl".
Songbird is to the 667 Awards what Leonardo DiCaprio was to the Oscars.
You told me off for swearing once. Good times.
Now I get paid to do that lmao
