For the time being yes, although not quite as much spam perhaps :)
My comments were not meant as a jibe to you Mr.Sleep. (Just so the thought is not there) If anything, it was a jibe at myself.


I never thought they were, I was merely explaining things as I saw them.

No consternation,

I would vote for HighLordDave. He has a sound enough judgment, and I believe will be fair.

Hmmm....

Well, there's always been so many nice people to nominate -

I guess I would suggest HLD, CE, Gwally, Ned, Dragon Wench, Maharlika, Minerva, I don't know. It's hard to choose. Glad I'm not Buck.

Weasel is noticeably absent from the nominations. cringes as she tries to imagine Weasel as a mod :eek: ;)

I second CM's nomination. He's around a lot, he's a level-headed guy and well-liked. Plus, he's got the European address for the time zone factor.

@VoodooDali:
Both Weasel and Yshania, both of whom would make excellent moderators, have already announced that they are not interested.

Right, I nominate (in no particular order) HLD, Ode, CE, Mr. Flibble, BS, Waverly, Dottie and possibly some more. I think the reasons have pretty much been covered already :)

How many nominations can we make?

As I said in the other thread: I would rather my moderators be less involved in hot topics. From the people I have seen listed, I think Gwalchmai, Maharlika, or Bloodstalker would be appropriate choices.

Peace. :cool:

Ok, looks like we have quite a few names. What I'd like to do now is find out which of the nominees are actually interested in becoming a moderator. I think this is all of them:

Gwalmachai
Maharlika
C Elegans
HighLordDave
CM
Ned Flanders
Bloodstalker
Mr. Flibble
Minerva
Yshania
Eerhardt
Dragon Wench
Ode to a Grasshopper
Waverly
Dottie

Basically, moderator status gives you more functions when browsing the forum (you can edit posts, move topics, etc) and gets you an @gamebanshee.com email address. All that I ask of a moderator is that they use their privileges to make sure members abide by the forum rules and respect one another, thus strengthening the community here at GameBanshee.

For those members that are listed above, which of you would be interested in becoming a mod? Once I've heard from each one of you (either yes or no), I will set up a poll so that the rest of the community can vote on who they'd like to see become the next mod.

Well of the nominies, only Waverly is MIA. So Im not so sure youd get a response from him. Just an FYI, Buck. Im sure you knew this already.

BTW-I like the way youre handling this issue. Thinking of the populous is really a smart way of going about anything. :cool:

I don't think I have the qualifications for the job. I am honoured that I have received votes, but I will have to decline - thank you :)

I would be interested in taking up the available mod position. I'm usually in and out of here every few hours for probably about 2/3rds of the day, but as my job is about to change a bit that may be cut down quite significantly.
I'd also like to hear fable and T'lainya's comments on this issue too.

I am currently at a conference and have very limited time, but in brief, I thank those of you who have suggested me, but as many of you already know, I unfortunately have to decline due to my irregular job.

My suggestions are CM, Dottie, Ode or Maharlika. Since both Fable and T' are in the North American time zone I think it is an important point that the new moderator is in another time zone, and it would also be good to increase the cultural diversity of our mods by not choosing an American.

Thank you for nomination. :) Unfortunately, I'm not mad enough... err, well, I am too busy to spend enough time in GB as much as I'd like to. Anyway, there are people capable and willing to take the job than myself.

@Buck: I think we need a mod in Morrowind forum as well, especially if you are spending more time with NWN and IWD 2 at the moment.

I don't think it very probable that at a vote I would stand much chance of becoming a moderator, but that being said I wanted to say that due to time considerations and personal reasons (not to mention that there are others who are far better suited to the job IMO ;) ) I am unable to moderate at the present time. :)

but thank you for listing me :)

Id be happy to take this job if you want. I am a frequent visitor to the Morrowind section and I might be ready to step up. But T'Lainya is also ever present there too, so she'd be good for this job aswell.

EDIT-Also if Sojourner is around, shed also make a good mod for Morrowind, I think.
