Co-Mod election

[pixy0stix]

I hope I'm not overstepping my boundaries when I say it looks like you guys are fine with me still being the mod for the board.

So now we need a mini-me... er... co-mod to help control you unruly masses. Do we want to go with a volunteer system, and then vote on the volunteers? Or do we want nominations?

[y4m]

I can mod over here too. A third isn't a bad idea though.

[brookles]

Pixy, I thought you wanted to go back to the Nest if they fix the glitches and such. Are you in it to win it, proboards-style?

Not that I don't love you y4m, but I thought one of the new ground rules around mods was that they couldn't be on several boards. Am I wrong in thinking that you're already mod-ding elsewhere?

[y4m]

I'm a global mod. A named mod for MM, but in case of emergency, my powers do work here as well.

[GailGoldie]

i think we need a primary election first And have a mod from each side of the asile... and can we dig up dirt from each person running to make it more fun??

Not to ditto, but.... ditto.

I think you've been a great mod over on TN, Pixy. But I've also seen you say several times that you'll head back there. You're not going to leave us, are you?

::finger crossed Pixy decides to stay::

[pixy0stix]

I'm staying where everyone is because I don't want to be over there talking to myself.

[heightsyankee]

I don't think anyone would vote for me because no one knows me here, but that just might make me a good mod.

[lyssbobiss, Command, B613]

Are we nominating other people or self-nominating or both?

I nominate Lyss to be awesome. Wait...she's already done that. Carry on.

For reals though, I'm fine with Pixy and Y4M.

[teflep]

I am fine with Y4M and Pixy..very bipartisan, if you will

[meshaliuknits]

I nominate Idris Elba.



Sorry, sou's siggy distracts me.

[msmerymac]

I nominate Momi.

[brookles]

Shouldn't we let people volunteer? Those people might not want to be mods or might not have the time.

[msmerymac]

I highly doubt we'd end up electing someone who didn't accept their nomination. Maybe the next thread should be "Nominees - please accept or reject your nomination."

[Deleted]

I am around all the damned time. I have no life and my child is neglected lolol.

But in terms of availability, I've got it. I come in and out (that's what she said) but I ususally am here late at night and on the weekends.

[KateAggie]

How about sisugal? We only need someone that can pop in and out, right?

Haha, you can be my co-chair of awesome.

/ded
Or, fallbride/zoolady?

[KateAggie]

Seriously, I don't get all the hoopla. Pixy and Y4m both know what they're doing, and are both great at not letting their personal feelings impact their moderating. Do we really need to have an election? I think we're way overthinking this.

Ditto. Unless we're talking about E08 style board elections, in which case I pick KA as my running mate.

[ringstrue]

I agree with the Cons. No Democracy!

No seriously, its NBD. Like I said before, if people want to do it, let them. Being a mod is thankless and takes a lot of fun out of message boarding.

[pixy0stix]

I'm trying to give the illusion of choice in this dictatorship.

[pixy0stix]

Alright, I'm unstickying and calling it a day.
