Yep. Embarrassing for all of us. I say all of us, because I believe we're all in this together. What one person does causes a ripple effect and touches us with it's energy. When it's such inescapably persistent low energy, we can't help but sooner or later get caught up in it ourselves. A lot of the "getting involved" in such "tiffs" goes against how we are as people. But loyalty and simply, humanity, demands that we honour our principles and take a stand. Even though we'd MUCH rather never be involved in the first place. It affects our synergy as a community. Not to mention reputation. IP: Logged |

For long-term and for providing astrological input, Aries23 or Electro. I think Elysia would be a good choice too, but I'd let things cool down first.
Thank you.. But in all fairness, I might be considered biased.. In light of recent events. IP: Logged |

well sorry but that isn't a fair argument. we are all in this together no matter how "bad" someone is, they are a part of the whole and should be accepted as so. IP: Logged |

A moderator does not need to barge in all the time, half the time conflicts cool down by themselves. IP: Logged |

At the root of all the drama that keeps happening in Astrology 2.0 is politics. If you want to moderate Astrology 2.0 you have to ask yourself if you want the job of constantly putting out fires that other people start and been dragged into that drama over and over and over again and if you can handle the emotional toll this would place on you. Is it even fair for one person to have to moderate and manage all that toxicity? I don't think it is personally but Randall does not have time for it and I don't blame him, who has time for wasting your chi life force into fights others start and bring unto themselves? That been said I feel is crucial that whoever is chosen to mod Astrology 2.0 is an extremely unbiased individual bc 99% of the people that are been suggested here are usually part of the problem too in keeping drama alive and are not unbiased but they cannot see it nor the people who think like them politically can see that they are part of the problem and hence why they suggest them. It does take two people to fight and start drama and is never a one sided issue but most people in here fail to see this or to own their part in the problem. That been said I love Electro bc he is a teenager yet does a great job at staying out of the drama and that been the case he does a relative good job at been unbiased most of the time which impresses me and is why I suggested him as mod for Astrology for Beginners. However even Electro is biased at times (We all are at times to be accurate) and I don't think he is an ideal fit to mod this section of the forum were most of the drama takes place, I feel we need an exceptionally unbiased adult for this and Soren I feel has proven to be unbiased which is why I respect him. Its a section of the forum that is extremely active so selecting a mod for this forum needs to be taken very seriously or it could lead to more people leaving this forum.

You're missing my point. Please read carefully what I said there. Mod mention: Pixie Jane !! Where art thou? She would be a brilliant mod. IP: Logged |

I'm so fed up with you and others trying to save face for something that cannot be saved. You said that violence is entertainment for you! People being hurt and threatened is entertainment for you! Take a break, man, you are pushing it beyond human decency. This is outrageous, you are outrageous.

Well, others were voted against, because of their part in arguments. I think that would eliminate everyone in this thread. I only mentioned Orange in particular, because Ami suggested her - because she would be biased. I don't really know Orange, outside of a few threads in the past few months. I don't think you're going to get a lot of people throwing themselves into the pool to moderate here, because it's so busy, and because of what brought this thread to us. I don't think that involvement in the arguments should shut someone out of mod-ship - other people said that first. I am biased, at this point, so I'm not sure that my nominations would be seen as good ones. I like Voix, but she's already said no. quote: Originally posted by Ami Anne: VERY MUCH SO!
And so have I. I've been there defending you, and I've been there defending Faith, and others. So, if you can nominate someone who would be biased towards you, others can nominate those who would be biased against you, correct? IP: Logged |

So far, we have the following suggestions, with responses in brackets - Feel free to add/edit this list as you see fit. I've pre-filtered the "No"s. # Electro (Maybe) # Voix (Maybe) # Orange (Not sure what her response was) # soren (again, not sure what the response was) # Pixie Jane (hasn't weighed in yet) # Aries23Degrees (hasn't been on this thread yet) IP: Logged |

Someone who watched and did nothing when things should be done isn't fit to be a mod. Also if they avoid the arguments because they don't like conflicts, they won't last long being mod of astro 2.0 these days.
I hope that's directed at those who already said that nobody involved in the fights should be a mod. I've been involved. I didn't remain quiet, except for when a thread needed to be left alone. Not that that ever helps, because there will always be another fight. IP: Logged |

I will add that I feel Aries23 would be an excellent choice as well but I fear Aries23 is too smart to want to be a mod for this section. He/she is fully committed to staying away from the drama and been a mod requires that he/she jumps right in the drama so sadly I fear Aries23 will decline. IP: Logged |

I think Voix said no. I mentioned that above. She would be one of my choices. I think you would be good, too. PixieJane said she could do it, in LLC2, I think. I don't know if she wanted it long-term. IP: Logged |

This Forum can't have hidden things like a bullies provoking people who don't agree with them and then acting like they didn't do anything. It has to be OPEN for people with different points of view, if it is to be alive and viable. If it becomes a constricted thing with only one point of view like Stalinist Russia, it will be so boring that people will leave by attrition. People need to be able to say their peace without being bullied by people who don't agree, basically. If a bully/provoker goes over the line, a Mod has to step in. That is the upshot, as I see it. It is not really very complicated lol------------------ Want to Read Simple, Fun,Sexy Articles on Astrology? Check Me Out, DUDE. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

@teasel, Sorry, hard to keep track.. What with all the posts here. I thought Voix said she wouldn't mind but would not be around much? We could have two mods right? One a more stable presence and another slightly on/off routine? Well, I dunno..

leeloo i will say it out of consideration for you incase my energy and intent can not pass through the whole earth and speak to you (through energy vibration): elysia was saying some people are just terrible people and they suck others down. basically singling them out. ok so maybe she is just explaining her own behaviour. but don't single others out and say they bring everyone down. sometiems people need to get banned.
