That's an ungrateful job, cleaning all those spam in debating threads and such :laugh:

I'm not really sure if a lot of one-board-only mods would come in handy, but if the current mods think so, it might be an interesting experiment.

Are you saying this because you want to nominate yourself?
Did it ever happen that I do stuff purely for my own good, as in being selfish? I have nor time nor moderator experience so I wouldn't accept even if I was chosen, and secondly why would anyone consider me anyway in that same respect? Sorry for saying that, but I found the response rather rude compared to the intentions I had.

Anyway, I'm glad that first rule is gonna be removed later on, I don't like it when people choose based on someone else's choice rather than making their own, because that is just not the right way to choose.

i agree that an off topic mod is needed, since the current mods and admins usually don't hang out there much.

uh, i don't think anyone said anything about a lot of one-board-only mods, but maybe a couple boards getting a specific mod. for example, i could see off topic (or the "other" sections) getting one specifically for it (them), since that is where a decent amount of spam congregates...

It was a simple question concerning everybody as you're probably not the only who could have wanted to nominate his own self. It was not meant to be rude so please, on your side, do not assume concerning my intentions and don't overreact too much. If you have questions or comments addressed to me only, please use PMs.

It is not an uncommon administration practice to forbid self-nomination. It really helps skimming the non-serious propositions and shows who really gets the boards support. But anyway, it is not stated anywhere in the original post that the person with the most votes will get the mod status. This topic was, and still is, a simple discussion thread made out of courtesy. The nomination process really wasn't mandatory.

If that's the way you were going to, then I gladly apologize for the misunderstanding here. I did not know this was directed to anyone besides me as I was confused by the fact I got quoted. And nope, I was not overreacting there in any meant way, just showing why I have no reason to want to nominate myself due to earlier mentioned reason, but if I have any problems with you or anyone else I'll be sure to drop a PM.

Peace.

I would have to nominate Puppetz. His influence to this game is unquestionable. A forum moderator would need to understand pretty much all aspects in order to fully live up to the responsibilities of the job. I think he would do a good job.

I haven't read most of the other posts so I dont really know who all has nominated who (or if Puppetz has even said anything regarding all this) but if I had to pick anyone it would be him. IMO, he is the most qualified for the job.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot about Puppetz, but then again no one knows for how long he is going to be working on his PHZ pack, until that is done I think he is too busy to be moderating the forum.

Seeing as how I've been nominated, I would just like to point out that no one sees more of off-topic than myself.
