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

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?

Codek 07-08-2004 11:12 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.

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.

:

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

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.

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.

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:

Codek 07-08-2004 11:53 PM

:

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.

EDIT: Note that I have edited all my posts concerning this discussion. I've done my bit please do yours now CB.

I was PMing you!

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

Only opionated against Death, Reese Charles and thats for certain reasons.
Anyways back to topic, i dont really want to be a mod but i was just saying that i dont think Abe Babe and Alcar thinks there's a need for new mods.

Esus 07-09-2004 05:00 AM

To be quite honest with you, I don't actually think DI should be a moderator.
He tends to insult people, reply flippantly, continue 'arguements' and is generally nasty; often before then closing the thread, making sure he has the last word. DI just doesn't strike me as a good image of the staff.
Someone who is less agressive and hostile, and more fun would be a good candidate.

yeh u bite heads off for crying out load and if i remember u played yatzee with someones balls!

Hobo 07-09-2004 06:18 AM

WTF killa?

If you're going to take shots at my remarks at least make them humerous/ in english.

So in short.

Stop the spam. Or fear my abuse of the warnings system.

No. Not really.

I'm far too nice to give anyone a warning.

Well, other than Abe-gun.

And he really was a twat.

End of Post.

Or is it?

Yes.

Fez 07-09-2004 08:35 AM

ferill. (funny, easy to get on with, very honest)

Yes. I do love you.

I would really like to be a mod of Non-Oddworld Art and Literature. I think I would be a good mod for it as I visit there alot, and I am always writing up my stories, and giving good opinions of other peoples stories and art. I think I have been on the forums long enough now to get my place.

Since it's a subforum I don't think they have specific moderators for it and only it. If you're a FC mod then yeah, you could make yourself the NOAL mod.

Fez 07-09-2004 08:40 AM

Yeah, i'll have to run for that then.

I'm kinda pissed off that i've just now found this thread. I wish I could have posted in sooner. Anyway, i've got my hopes up for FC!

As have I for FS&H and OT. Hopefully I'll get one or the other, but ultimately both.

FS&H I'd love to do. But really OT is where the action is, so naturally that's where I'd like to be.

So far, our OT nominees are:

Mac The Janitor.
Oddguy.
Codek.
Hobo.
SeaRex.

NOAL nominees are:

SeaRex.
ferill.

FC nominees are:

Sligslinger.

FS&H nominees are:

Codek.

GD nominees are:

Oddguy.

EDIT: Gah.

Fingers crossed Abe Babe will agree to this. :)

Sekto Springs 07-09-2004 09:02 AM

Yes, FC is the perfect forum for new mods. If you run for GD or OT then people will think you're over-confident, if you run for SP or RPG then people will think you're a loser. FC is right in the middle so it rocks.

Another reason why I'm also running for FS&H. I like helping people out, and aiming for that forum is not too ambitious. As much as I think I would make a good OT mod, I don't think I would have enough votes to get the spot. Even though there is only me, Oddguy, and Mac running for it.

EDIT: Although it's a possibility...

I'd say that isn't a bad spread of new moderators. The three of us in OT, making 5 mods overall, and 4 if Majic gives up his spot, isn't really too shabby considering it will be thriving when Stranger comes out. The extra in GD is probably a good idea, for the same reasons. GD will end up with 3 mods there if this goes ahead. FS&H would be me and the admins, so 3 again, but I would be taking care of moderating duties and Peter/Kristen could handle forum issues. I would possible answer the simpler questions, again freeing up the admins time even more.

Fingers crossed Abe Babe will agree to this. :)

Dude, didn't Magic nominate me too for OT? *AHEM*

Sekto Springs 07-09-2004 09:14 AM

Someone nominate me for FC. Oh wait. Oddguy did! Yay! Now, put me on the list damnit! :robot:

Codek 07-09-2004 09:15 AM

:

Dude, didn't Magic nominate me too for OT? *AHEM*

So you want to run for OT too?

On top of your current moderating duties?

OK I'll add you to the list.

SeaRex 07-09-2004 09:19 AM

Yeah. Even though we're getting pretty hefty on the OT list, I think I would like to be on there.

Couldn't hurt. I've always wanted to be OT mod.

Hobo 07-09-2004 09:25 AM

I'm not actually a mod for much longer, I've said this repeatedly but no-one seems to take it in. Officially The Red Muse is the mod now, but I'm waiting for a forum leader to move the mod powers across.

*HINT!!!*

You obviously haven't said it repeatedly enough, because this is the first I've heard of it.

Well I suppose since you'll be a normal member soon then you'll have to start looking for re-employment so you can continue your reign as bastard-overlord. ;)

Hobo 07-09-2004 09:30 AM

Yeah!

Loving your sig by the way Codek.

I actually think that Searex and Mac are more qualified than me for OT, but I'll give it a shot.

Codek 07-09-2004 09:34 AM

:

I'm as qualified as Mac is, in terms of previous experience with moderating (not on this forum of course). SeaRex is popular, so he'll probably get in. Oddguy will most likely get the GD spot, and you'll probably get the other OT spot.

Who do you think you'll all vote for?

EDIT: Vote me for FS&H! ;)
