Maybe if Halx upped the ante by offering mod-only slumber parties, you could get the quality applicants you're looking for!

or took off the politics thing lol

some of us that are afraid of that place would do a fantastic job watching out for spam and welcoming and helping new people

I think politics should be the job of full time mods, not apprentices

I must have poor judgement as well. I think you would be a fabulous mod. You have an uncanny ability to detect BS and keep threads on the up beat side when they threaten to turn particularly dirty.

Did y'all fail to read my post that I was a mod once, and did a piss poor job of it? I think the mods here can attest that I can be a "tad" bit mercurial, and have earned my share of yellow cards for it.

Please note the Lady Sage also has exceedingly poor judgement.

Elphaba's being gracious (which we always appreciate), but if you really think someone should apply - send them a PM. They'll get the picture, and this thread won't look like a popularity contest.

I vote for uber....wait.

How does everyone feel about the idea of voting? No? Yes? Representative democracy? No?

NoSoup

I applied, so...

Vote for NoSoup!

Vote for no soup?!?

Screw that!

What could be nicer, after shoveling snow on a cold winter's day, that a grilled cheese sandwich and a piping hot bowl of tomato soup? Without the soup...all you've got is toasty bread with some processed cheese crap in the middle. Why...it's as American as apple pie.
So...no soup is unamerican.

And, what little child doesn't like a bowl of Chicken and Stars soup? Without it, millions of children throughout the world would be sad and cry.
So...no soup makes little children cry.

And what's best when you're feeling under the weather. You've got it. Chicken Noodle soup. Without it, thousands of workers would be calling in sick, thereby stifling productivity.
So...no soup is bad for the economy.

Vote for no soup?

I don't think so.


What?

Oh...

I would be happy to vote, but I feel candidates are probably interviewed and I doubt we would be provided with their qualifications and specifics about the people we would be voting on.

Unless I could make a sound, informed and viable vote.... yanno.

Cant wait to see who the new mods are though!

no, but I actually misread it and left the last word off so it looked like you finally tried it and "proved yourself"
regardless, I'm thinking the politics pre-req is going to narrow the choices considerably...

I would apply, politics is easy, but the fact that i'm always right might stick in the craw of the more often wrong members.

Elphaba

I have always hated that about you. Imagine what I would be like.

I think that people who want to be cops should absolutely never be allowed to be cops. It should be a completely randomly forced assignment -like being drafted.

The same goes for moderators.

Elphaba

You're not funny.
