Please post a name if you want to nominate someone else.

We all make mistakes but didn't want any smart asses nominating Largent80, Peaches, etc

 

[Welshers]

I nominate @Sports Hernia

 

[Sports Hernia]

I nominate @Sports Hernia

Appreciate the support, but would never do it again with the current group.

 

[SantaClaraHawk]

I’d recommend Zeb and Justthetip., seriously.

 

[QWERTY]

I recommend myself. And once I get promoted, I will be a huuuuuuuuuuuge contributor.

 

[Maelstrom787]

Hell, I'll throw my hat in. Seems a lot of this job is just basic cleanup that the current staff doesn't have time to do. Wrong forum, duplicate posts, etc etc. I can do that while browsing, no sweat. If you need more numbers, I don't mind.

 

[Cyrus12]

Zebulon for sure..if not acer1240.

 

[Maelstrom787]

Also, I'll reiterate and agree with Cyrus. Zeb should be a mod.

 

[JustTheTip]

I’d recommend Zeb and Justthetip., seriously.

My autism doesn't jive well with the way the rules are written here. I have moderated on multiple forums over the 20+ years with different styles from almost anything goes to strict rules and never had a problem. This forum tries to integrate strict rules with anything goes attitude and it doesn't work for me as far as moderating goes. I don't do well with guessing when strict rules need to be looked at with grey instead of black and white.

I would second this. I think Maelstrom787 would do well moderating here.

You would do much better than you think. A lot of the help needed is stuff that isn't in a gray area like merging threads, moving posts to the right forum etc and if uncomfortable with the disciplinary stuff you could wait for direction, stay out of that part of it etc. I think you would do very well in some areas that need help.

 

[JustTheTip]

Is shaggy back and active now? I see he logged in this morning.

I nominated you and Zeb because in all your years of moderating, you seemed very fair, at least to me.

I was but didn't flow with the vibe of the forum for the reason I gave. Despite what people liked to say, I never allowed my own biases to impact moderating decisions. The moderating logs would fully back that up.

 

[Jerhawk]

I nominate @toffee and @Welshers

And @Sgt. Largent

Ban them all, Ban them all to hell!

Maelstrom is a good pick
