But you won't turn the dudes away just for having the old Y chromosome, right?

Absolutely correct. It'd simply be nice to have lots of options.

Yet another instance where I go "oh yeah" . . . long pause . . . "wait a minute here" . . . "WTF!"
I am reading roachboy on multiple levels again. Either I over-think his words, or I am just not able to grasp what he says because he is talking colour to a blind man. Mod him. He's too eclectic and brilliant to not encourage in any way possible

It's fun to converse with someone smarter than you are. I found out long ago that RB is much smarter than I am. It makes discussions a lot more interesting, and it earns appreciation.

Sorry, my real name cannot be divulged.

clarification on real name: first name is fine.

anyway, we're finishing up on this, so if you're on the fence about applying or have been meaning to but haven't yet, you should do so by Friday.

my personal feeling is that only people who do not ask to be made into moderators should be made into moderators.

That might work with politicians, actually. I've had this discussion a number of times with people, who have all decided that I'm nuts.

It would mean that the whole has to make sure each individual is intelligent and capable.

Plan9 · 08-29-2007, 08:23 AM

I concur.

Plastic-headed people with ceramic teeth and starched suits should not be leaders... here in cyberspace or anywhere.

Do not lead for the glory of it, lead because it needs to be done.

RenaissanceII · 08-29-2007, 08:58 AM

Do It because you want to give back to those who have given to you, even those not here yet.

I dont really know who said it first, but there is a pretty well known saying about politicians to this effect.

Kinda surprised that Joseph Heller made a statement about people being administrators of internet message boards... but if you say so of course I'll believe it.

World's King · 08-29-2007, 09:50 AM

No matter how well the system works...

You'll eventually end up with a leader like me.

Kind of makes your asshole pucker up, doesn't it?

Plan9 · 08-29-2007, 10:10 AM

Yeah, but we like you. You can't discount that.

It doesn't matter if you don't know what you're doing, step on toes, piss in cornflakes, and start a war in the Middle East... as long as people like you.

World's King · 08-29-2007, 10:35 AM

Well, God did tell me to be a Mod.

RenaissanceII · 08-30-2007, 09:56 AM

Someday perhaps, I will apply (if I will be had). But I Need more seasoning.
