Pixy = former mod of PCE and maybe like the Cloth Diapering board
ESDReturns is from TIP. She is nice and normal and people like her. That could explain why she's wining. As for Pixy, I don't know why she's getting so many votes. People may have forgotten Hypothetical Etsy Gate.

Can you recap for those of us who don't keep good track of these things? I am happy to cast a vote for whoever would be sane and normal, but I don't know any of those names.
ETA: Actually, now that I voted, I can see that the two names I did recognize (and voted for), cj and vanillacourage, are pretty high up there. I know pennypenny is from this board too, but (no offense) I think her screenname is relatively recent so I don't feel I "know" her as an MMer.
Pixy was on my birth month board. She's super snarky and tells it like it is. I kinda like that. Not sure what qualifies someone to be a mod (never really understood that) or whether she's fit for the job, which is why I haven't voted.
And agree on the "getting a shitty unpaid job" miso. I never understoon why MsBlake did it since she seemed pretty busy IRL.

Once upon a time there was a poster named Hindsight. SHe started a thread entitled "how do I become a better photographer" on PCE and asked for tips. Several posts down she clarified that she wanted to know how to take pictures of her crafts in particular because she was thinking about opening an Etsy shop.
Someone asked Hindsight what she would sell in her Etsy shop and Hindsight said "redacted" but she didn't in fact say "redacted," she said knitted blankets or something only to have her comments edited by Pixy, the power hungry PCE mod who hates the MM Makeup board. A vote for Pixy is a vote for censorship and craziness.

I prefer ESD over pixy for moderator.
I guess I like pixy just fine but when she was mod of P&CE and F&B on TN for a while she reminded me of a 5th grader who practically dislocates their shoulder raising her hand to respond to a request for "Safetys" (for the playground for the bus, did you have these, they wore orange banners?). In other words, a little too invested.
But "winning" actually means "getting a really shitty unpaid job." LOL.
Yes. I threw my name out there when the post had been hanging out there without many replies, mainly as a "hey i can help if need be". I don't really get all the campaigning.
I don't care who is chosen but I do sorta feel like people who incite board wars should not be given global mod powers. JMO.

You got my vote! Please be kind to the MM Makeup board & don't delete us
Like her or not, I worry about Pixy's ability to be neutral. She clearly has strong opinions for/against things and I don't think that would make her a good option.
This is what I was thinking, but I could be wrong.
I don't expect to get the most votes since I really haven't been campaigning.

what does a global mod do? How is it different than the specific board mods?
I think the idea is they could do the same things, but on any board. So, if there's spam on ML and no ML mod is around, you can call the global mod in.
