    6/23/09

    So we have 3 runner ups for modship: Fang, Pried1220 and, last but not least, Mutt.

    This is what each runner up has to say on why you should vote for them.

    Mutt:

    Anyhow, I think I would be a good mod because I am fair, I try to listen to everyone's point of views, I am quick to solve any problems that arise, I would never abuse power, I'm an epic no-lifer who comes on here several times a day Wink , I've used a mod control panel before, I try my best to stop people from flaming or trolling even when I'm not ranked, I'm trying to invite members here who will stay active, like Ptolemy, and I would help out NH in any way I could.

    Pried1220:

    i do believe i have shown my capability as a mod in the past with quick reaction time and i am very active. I also find another important aspect the ability to judge a post with an open mind, people will break the rules but it may be a honest mistake so warnings should be a rare occurrence.

    Fang:


    I've done my hardest to recruit anyone to join NH.
    I am very active.
    I post in all different types of discussion.
    I know what it's like to be abused by a mod so I'll be fair to everyone.
    I have tried my best to help out everyone I could.



    Now before we vote, if anyone would like to ask them questions...The poll will be up by tomorrow (hopefully).

    i find the most important aspect is not in the rules but in the many(ok few) users who post on our forms. as a mod it would be my responsibility to remain ever vigilant to protect everyone's right to post without the troubles of spam or other members who wish to bring harm

    If the rules don't matter, then why should you be a mod at all?

    The most important aspect of a mod is respect for lower-ranked users. This fits in with the power abuse. If you respect lower-ranked users then you will end up doing very well in the time you are a mod.

    I have a question for all 3 of you. Judging from what you have already seen, how often do you think you will have to use your mod powers?

    Are you sure you want to run for Mod Mr. Pried?

    You seem to not know the rules. The double Post rule was removed yesterday.

    Besides Mutt still having to answer 2 questions, Ill ask all 3 of you a question:

    A mod should be a model forum member, what do you think makes you model and what do you think you need to improve about yourself?

    What makes me a good role-model: I invite many members here


    What I could change about myself: umm... Well, according to Steve (who hates everyone) I am a spammer...

    I could lose all contact with Steve... Jk.

    I could post less? That doesn't help the forum, does it though? Thus, I am not a spammer.

    a modle fourm member is anyone who can have a good time, sure i may bicker a bit but (now) i only intend it to be fun. i also think that knowledge of the rules and activity is important but you should not post in every tread, that's a little over active

    You nominees aren't saying enough in your answers to our questions, For every question you should aim to write at least a paragraph on answering it. At the moment your all saying pretty minimalistic responses and thats no good because you all look very similar with them, I will tell you now if you all look like your going to be the same I will vote for pried.
