I don't really care anymore, as long as someone I like or respect gets the job and Alcar or whoever can justify the descision.
Yeah I agree, but I also think that we should have the right to decide who gets the job. Not only because it's democratic but because there are certain advantages to it. After all this is going to be someone who will potentially be closing our threads, handing out our warnings, and yelling at our morons - there's a lot of potential there for someone to come in and really mess things up by being too strict or too lax, and a lot of potential for someone to make this place run a whole lot smoother. I agree that we should invest good faith in Alcar's ability to decide things like super mods, but ultimately we the people of OT should be the ones who choose the moderator, since it is we who have to put up with him. But besides that we're the ones who are here most often - no offense to Alcar but he isn't in OT very much, he is after all quite busy, which is partly the reason that he wants another S mod, however since the OT regulars are the people who are in OT the most, and are therefore going to be most affected by a new moderator, and know the people of OT the best, then they would be the ones who are better suited to choosing the new moderator.

I'm not going to start a revolution over it, but I think that we should consider this properly rather than just going into it halfassed and picking out any old person. It doesn't take any extra effort or anything to just hold a poll vote on who should be the new moderator. The only thing we have to decide is who the nominees will be.
