Without them, there would be only one Top 100 list. There would have been no Battle Royale. Far fewer tournaments. No exciting, extracurricular reasons to come here, like the upcoming Encyclopedia project.

There are many of us here that have a deep love for the forum and would do well as a moderator. But none so much as __V__ and Flayed.

I think that goes without saying.
Your nominations are perfect, but your reasoning seems askew- I don't think the mod position is given as a reward for good service. It's not a trophy. You get to deal with all the dregs- the morons, the jerks, the spambots. It's more of a curse, really...

Yes, but their love for the forums shows that they could easily deal with that stuff - it shows that they'd want to take a more active role in making this place a better home for all of us.

Wow. I'm surprised by how many people think I'd be good. I really am thankful though. I think I will go for it. Though I may not win, it's worth going for and I think I'd enjoy it. Thanks everyone who's suggested it.

But who I think would be good.

Neverending - Every thing everybody else has said.

Newb - Same. Plus he's very impartial and fun.

__V__ - He is the most passionate about this forum! But only if he wants to. He does so much here already.

__V__ deserves it most. But, I can see why he might be reluctant to take up the mantle if offered it. It is both an honor and an obligation and V has plenty of obligations and already above and beyond his call of duty. More work for V is absurd. I think we need two balanced temperaments. Neverending is wise, mostly impartial and doesn't take any shit, the same would be true of Flayed. As a third nominee, I would say Pinkfloyd. She displays compassion, wisdom and a desire to mediate disputes. Neverending/Flayed and Pinkfloyd. If V will have it, and I can well understand if he wouldn't or would be reluctant, it should be him and Maggie.

Before you apply, ask urge why he decided not to be a mod anymore.
You should all think about the 360 of the sitch.


Just thought I'd throw that out there:)

Times have changed since I first started posting here.

I figure I have no shot in hell at even getting one vote so I guess I shouldn't have even wasted my time saying I'd like to do it.

Maybe I should be more active around here and talk to people more I suppose.
