I also realize the fact that I've seen problems with just naming just anybody for moderator, suggestively either that person has to:

1. Have enough of knowledge over the subjects that are brought up within this forum.
2. Not have any affiliated leanings for any political party(even to the point that the person nominated didn't even bother to vote in the last presidential election).
3. Has been here long enough and as often enough in this forum.
4. Is easy going and shows fairness to all that visits this forum. Keeping an open mind and yet remains detached to all,to execute discretion plus shuns any favortism with any of the members that visits this forum.
5. Someone is kind and courteous enough to even the most irate and irrational member on this forum, after they been through one of the more heated arguements that go on(from time to time) on this forum.
6. And that are not weighed down by the problems that are going on in they're personal lives to reflect upon the events that go on within this forum.

These are just a few suggestions that I would be looking for in a moderator.

Tink or Eleanore would be two of my best choices, but I see that Eleanore is already a moderator as it is.

But, I don't think Jwhop is the type to get megalomaniacal with newfound power. I certainly don't think he'd start censoring everything he didn't agree with.

Yet you are failing to mention the fact that he is a republican and so are you. Of course you want him to be a mod. You agree with his views.

I think it would be great fun if Jwhop were Moderator. Might keep him around even when he's losing arguments. Of course, we may need to keep special interests away from him, and we'll have to ensure he doesn't start a war with another forum, but at least we'll get a tax break, huh?

I feel like I spoke too soon offering myself up seeing as everyone's nominating people, and no one is volunteering as Randall had asked.

more powerful i think you are!

posted December 12, 2005 04:12 PM              

so, I think you should definitely
be a moderator

Petron, Ozone, or Tink, & Blue Roamer.

The end.

I actually thought about volunteering for this forum. I enjoy being on Lexigram Magic but it currently has *four mods whereas this one is in need of new ones and gets more traffic. I visit this forum just as often as the others so that wouldn't be a problem. Either way, I'd be happy staying as a mod where I am or transferring over here.

That said, I think good choices would be Tink or jwhop and AcousticGod (as the con/lib team), if they're willing. Seeing as this is one of the most frequented and, err, challenging forums, I think it would be nice to have more than one moderator here. Though I suspect from the title of this thread that Randall already knows that.

But thanks anyway MG!

Yeah Eleanore, I think that you would great moderator for this forum, it's pretty much right up your alley on the things you pretty much are quite aware of anyway! And since I've known you, you seem to be one of the most fair minded members here as well!
