El Gordo - Site helper

Just a very quick thread to clarify El Gordo's role as a site helper on E-I.

El Gordo runs his monthly blogs, "El Gordo's pick of the Month" whereby he selects the escort fo the month based on the information he collates from the reviews submitted for that month. El Gordo is not a moderator and does not have the same level of access as a moderator on this site.

I hope that clarifies everything.

sam it is okay anyone who knows El Gordo knows he is a guy who is helpful at all times.. who does not like conflict.. who does not take sides and is an over all good guy..and I find him like others on this site very helpful.. but sure is that what being a group of people with the same interests should be about...x

Then West got on his high horse cos someone had accused him of hiding the fact that he had access to certain areas that you and I dont, then West denies this and......................

El Gordo is an excellent poster and a very fair man. I have already apologised to him for dragging him into this mess.

Since this thread might be baffling to people who didn't read that thread, which was rather long, I'll explain further. Lucy asked there why Westie has access to the "Mods and Escorts" section if he is no longer a mod, and has never been an escort. She was told that he had access because he was on the "site helpers" list, which includes the mods, but is not just mods. That sounded odd to me, since I happen to be on that list and I don't have access to that section, so I pm'ed her. Lucy then asked about this, initially not identifying me as the person who pm'ed her. After a certain amount of provocation she then posted my name and almost immediately edited the post to remove it. At that point I thought I should just post and confirm that I had been the one who pm'ed her. There was some small amount of sniping after that, but things generally calmed down. To prevent speculation from getting out of hand again, I'd just like to clarify a few points:
- I don't want access to that section. It doesn't concern me. I'm not a mod or an escort.
- I am on Sarah's "site helpers" list, but I've never received any money from E-I, directly or indirectly.
- I'm not part of any conspiracy to stitch anyone up, as you may have read in a certain blog. I think the person who made that accusation honestly believes it to be true, but only because someone is feeding her dodgy information.

Ok, so Sarah has a "Site Helper List," is there access / a link to this list or is it just a group of people that have been given the courtesy of extra privileges due to their contribution to the forum :confused:

To be honest, it's really just El Gordo (Reliable Guide to Escorts) and Experienced Punter Esq. (competitions) that are the site helpers.

Good job guys, by the way :)

so what was/is west i know he used to be a mod but that was taken off him for whatever reasons but he claimed to be a site helper and he does/did (after he was stopped from being a mod) have access to the mods and escorts section. so my question is what is west a mod a site helper or just a normal poster?
and since he does not seem to be a mod why does he have access to the mods and escorts section?
and do the escorts know who has access to their section?

does west still have access???
and is it safe for escorts to post in their own private section when they dont really know who might be able to see it????

Westside is a competitions czar and has never had access to the private escort forum. He is not a moderator, he is a site helper.

He had access to our Mod and Escort section though Sam. Heather queried this and was told he was 'half a mod'. We were trying to figure out what that entailed.

I can confirm that Westside no longer has any moderator priviledges and has never had any access to the escort forums. :)

I think whats causing the confusion here is that there are two forums, am i right in saying
that there is an escorts/mods forum but there is also a private escorts forum?
He had access to the mods/escort forum but not the private escorts forum
Please clarify if this is the case
