If no one else wants to step forward, I think we have a good group of 5 to consider. I won't be around this weekend, so Dash or Boss can accept more volunteers and meanwhile, go ahead and throw out ideas on how to proceed with the selection of our new Modulator (vote, mods choose, etc.)

Did my post get deleted?!? FUCKING MODS!!!!

I think maybe I navigated away by accident, but it said basically...
-I think we are a mature enough board to vote on who we think would be a good mod, not just popularity
-I think Ritari would make a great mod (no idea if he is interested) and already does many "mod-like" things during arguments
-I would make a terrible, terrible mod

I agree with all of eloco's above points.

Which is weird, because eloco's usually wrong.

Why thank you, both of you. I'd be interested, but I'd also like to know what my duties would be.

Could you imagine if we were a government trying to get something done.

dare2be: "Ok everyone we need to vote in a new government to run this place"
Jeff Sly: "Just put me in fucking charge Ill clean this place up"
dare2be: "Well its not bad Jeff so it...."
Jeff Sly: " HEAVY METAL ROCK N ROLL FUCK YEAH. BRUINS HOCKEY FUCK YEAH...... Oh Jazz.. I mean yeah Man.... Yeah"
Beantownmaniac: "Jeff has a point there. Bruins do rule and Canucks are divers and losers"
Jeff Sly: "And Canadiens, I fucking hate them more than the Canucks... or do I..... Beeeboppp jizzzy jazzy jaz jaz yeah Man"
Dash: " Guys cmon this is serious, you need to focus on nominating someone"
clarkson23devils: "Mattola would make a great Mod"
Mattola: "Fucking Zombies man, they're coming. I mean it you better be fucking prepared they will come and they will eat your family, PREPARE"
clarkson23devils: "Nevermind"
IPostedWhat: ":ipw:"

KillerVee: "Look I just want to add my..."
Jeff Sly: "What happened to Vee she didn't finish her sentence"
dare2be: "24 hour ban"
Jeff Sly: "Dippity Doo bee bop zizzle zazzle Jazz Man...."
dare2be: "sigh"
Darkstone42: "r x t = D, The photons of laser light are collimated"
Mattola: "Will they kill Zombies"
Darkstone42: "The Mods?"
Mattola: "The Lazers"
Darkstone42: "sigh"
puckhead: "

Dash: "PUCKHEAD"
Blueandwhiteforever/DERRINGER: "Well do it"
BOSSMANPC: "Children Settle Down Now...."
Everyone: "Yes Sir... ok lets decide"

That's amazing, sir.

BTW I would be a great mod.

Basically anyone who said anything negative about the Bruins would be perma banned and I would berate them. Kinda how I feel about Elo lololol

In my view, this post is at the top of the page, which make it weird, funny, or creepy, depending on what advertising banner is displaying at the time.

A good mod should be objective and not be a "hard ass" because they feel they need to live up to a reputation. Mods should be open minded and follow the rules and accept a posters POV even if you do not agree with them.

I would be reluctant to nominate a person that feels they have the need to be a "tough guy" and shit can a posters because because they disagree or want to make a statement.

From reading some of the post hear I have the feeling that being a mod is is a piece of cake and everything is cut and dry.

Keep in mind that it's more work than most think and for every choice you make some will like it and some will not.

It's not a power job it's a job that requires common sense and it sure as hell isn't a popularity contest. I have made decisions that have gotten PM's pro's and con's and trying to follow GNT's can be a challenge at times.

Being a MOD is not a popularity contest (as it shouldn't be) but it's not always the fun and games that some apparently think it is.

I would not want to be a mod. You guys have a tough job.

I would volunteer and I think I would do a good job 90% of the time. But I am too immature and I'd sometimes would mess with peoples post if they hugged me.

Edit : auto correct changed a b to an h in hugged but in this case I think it made it a better post so I kept it
