Yeah, You'd make a good mod I think, though you would have to take a more passive approach to arguments and avoid them if you see them getting out of hand. Otherwise, I think you'd be fine

I'll admit, that if I was a moderator, I would probably remain a lot more neutral in arguments, like you said. I'd definately mellow out a lot.

But I thank you for saying that.

Majic 07-08-2004 05:33 AM

I could probably do more with enforcing against personal attacks in arguments. Admittidly, I've been slacking. 2 weeks of awayness threw me out of my groove.

And your groove certainly is a funky one.

I just can't help but picture Mr. T doing the moonwalk to A Flock Of Seagulls' "Funky Cold Madina". :D

EDIT: On a more related note, Majic, could you perhaps list a few people you would like as co-mods?

Majic 07-08-2004 05:51 AM

I was leaning towards Luke (Searex) or Oddguy. But Mac or Hobo could also fill the spot, seeing as their both former mods who can handle tasks.

I see I'm not in there. (damnit!) Any particular reason?

Yeah I'd say Oddguy would probably do a bit better in GD, due to his likingness of Oddworld. Searex is a good choice there. Still I'm a bit miffed that you didn't list me as a candidate, I'd love an OT moderator spot. ;)

Majic 07-08-2004 06:06 AM

I completely forgot aobut you, seeing as I was responding to you. Or something. Nuetral out and be a bit more, oh, how to say it. Loose? Liberal? Open Minded? Or, a combination of those or something. Become less agressive towards stupidity in general and you'd be dandy.

Oh right. :)

Yeah Hobo said something very similar. OK so avoiding the arguments is the order of the day. Fair enough. I can do that.

I was actually wondering about you...

I was so shocked when I read that sentence (after the whole name-change incident) that I had to stand up and have a walk around the office just to calm down :D

But seriously, I would support Oddguy, SeaRex or Mac The Janitor. Sorry but I don't really know Ferril and I'm still undecided on you codek. And I would like to put my hand up the running myself as well. Though I'm not too sure if said running exists yet. So IF there is a running, I would like to be all the way up it.

oddguy 07-08-2004 01:28 PM

EDIT: Oh yeah, and I agree with all on that list except Oddguy.

Ouch! ;) I really don't know what I could've done to you. I actually wrote some articles for yer website before I moved to Oddworld-Web. Tsk tsk. :fuzemb:

:

I shall keep my reasons my own to avoid offence/ arguing.

Too late. :robot:



Anyway, I think I could handle being mod of Off-Topic or General Discussion. Doesn't matter to me which place. I'd be happy with either one. :)

-oddguy :cool:

Joshy 07-08-2004 03:13 PM

Well nobody ever mentions about poor Josh....

Anyways, i dont think Alcar and Abe Babe were planning to introduce more mods. But i dont mind if they're more mods. Maybe it could be me :p Just joking.

Mac the Janitor 07-08-2004 03:35 PM

Thanks for mentioning me guys, I really appreciate it.

I'd love to moderate the Off-Topic Discussion, as it is where I spend the bulk of my time/have the most experience in modding at other forums. I wouldn't really mind modding the NOA&L, but I think there are much more eligible members than me for that job *cough*SEAREX*cough*.

Cyber-Slig 07-08-2004 03:39 PM

Although oone really knows me (yet) I would be a good mod.I post almost 200 posts every 2 weeks

oddguy 07-08-2004 04:30 PM

I think you'd do a fantastic job. You're very friendly and are liked by everybody...except CB for some reason.

-oddguy :cool:

I'd also be happy with mod joshy, fez, Searex or Codek.

Ya can't lose! They're all awesome!

Sekto Springs 07-08-2004 04:34 PM

I would like to be a mod. Maybe fan corner. But nobody likes me.

oddguy 07-08-2004 04:35 PM

If Fan Corner were to get a mod, SeaRex or sligslinger would be perfect. Really.

Sekto Springs 07-08-2004 04:44 PM

Even if I was a candidate, SeaRex would win. He's more popular and has been here longer than I have.

I know I really don't get that either... some people are just intimidated by beauty and genius!!!!! :D LOL!!!

Seriously though... what about me? Maybe as an under mod... no title just to keep the somwhat "nasty" element out of here by making sure peops don't get caried away.

I dunno I just think I'd be good in OT... infact I'm pretty OTT for OT!

Nah... just elect whoever... I know it won't be me.

No.

I am going to be 100% honest with you.

You would make a terrible mod.

I am not saying this in spite or to hurt your feelings or anything, just to open your eyes a bit.

Just don't get your hopes up is all.

Hmmmm...

I don't think I would... I'd take things seriously... I certainly wouldn't get involved in poster bashing like some OT mods (DI! :rolleyes: )

I'd initiate debate indepth and light and I'd also like to open the thread up to advice and help.... I have no one on PM ignore!!!! (I am actually a qualified child/youth counsellor... part of my teaching qualification... didn't want to mention that at first)

Although I don't mind spam too much I would only stop what i think was really ruining a thread or anything that is malicious... especially malicious... alot of posters here like to throw in one line "funny" put downs with out the aid of smilies.. such posts can be interpreted an sincere and agressive.

You may not think of me as any good but I would encourage you and everyone else to read some of my posts concerning life problems... giving honest open mature help on topics such as alcohol, drugs, sex and death... surely this is worthy?

How the hell... ? I completely forgot about you! Haha. :laugh:

Sorry Joshy, yeah you would make a really good mod. Especially with being so close to Alcar and whatnot. Your judgement isn't the best in the world, and I think maybe you could probably be a bit more fair and give things more of a chance, but other than that, you'd pretty much rock.

Still undecided on me? Hmm, I hope when you do decide it comes up positive. :) I'd back you all the way tbh. You're one of the few people that I would really like to see as a mod.

Dammit, when will Abe Babe get here to share her opinion?...

Brilliant!

A prime example of the kind of posts I'd like to stamp out!

Thanks Facs for expertly proving my point for me! :kiss:

Codek 07-08-2004 11:36 PM

CB please don't start an argument in this thread, this is a serious proposal to Abe Babe.

I'm not starting an argument... I'm just thanking Facs for supporting my claims about the one line nastiness... as any one standing in election would thank their press office or spin doctor!

Calm down! I don't want an argument... I didn't even want an argument with you! :rolleyes:

You've settled it for me..

I can't do anything f**king right here... everything I do is wrong!!!!

Was i supposed to let you shout me down and insult me on an open thread with no defence?

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong!

If you address a post directly by name to another poster on a thread then they respond on the same thread surely?

I don't understand!

CB, you're going off topic. Please stay on topic. That's all you need to do for me ok? Just please do that for me. We're talking about new moderators.

Ok? Just put all this behind you. If you can, please edit all your posts where you're talking about this. That would help keep the topic easy to read for Abe Babe.

Thanks.

I'm not wonder woman you know... my IT skills are pooh you know... Give a gal a chance... there! Better?

Resume mod discussion... remember "A vote for CB is a vote for manic niceness" :D
