The People's Choice Awards: Moderator category

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 03:08

Who do YOU think should be the new mod to the AVS forums? If you don't see their name on the list, post your vote. If you would like to run for office, please say so

*I left UnConeD's name off the list because of reasons stated in the "New mods needed?" thread.

Tuggummi · 25th March 2003, 05:06

Well even though Rovastar said there isn't going to be a new mod (well somewhere between the lines he said it

) I still voted.
Consider it as a "People's choice Award"

Zevensoft · 25th March 2003, 05:12

Vote #1 Atero!

Magic.X · 25th March 2003, 05:20

I voted too, but considering how fast my sensless treat has been locked by Rova, i still don't think that we'll need new mods.

(Good job Rova, dont mind me posting crap

)

White Raven · 25th March 2003, 05:42

I'd love to run, but... Well, all up to everyone else's opinion, I suppose. I'll try to get MOTM first... -.-

Tough, tough call between Raz, Atero and Anubis

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 05:52

lmao, this is the avs forum, you don't even post here! go away

White Raven · 25th March 2003, 05:57

SEZ WHO? lol

/me turns away sadly into the cold wind...
Okay okay...

shreyas_potnis · 25th March 2003, 06:54

anubis!

EnDurA · 25th March 2003, 08:40

lol, bloody general discussions people! anyway, i voted 4 nic, but anubis i thought would also make a good mod (seeing as he posts like 33 times a day

)

EnDurA · 25th March 2003, 08:42

anubis + atero are tying!

Phaze1987 · 25th March 2003, 08:46

my vote goes to the one who is fit for this job.

daftcunt · 25th March 2003, 11:58

i'd rather vote saddam than atero

Raz · 25th March 2003, 14:11

Out of all those votes i got one, one stinking vote from myself. Haha i'd be better suited a reviewer or just plain old nobody. I do think that only people who are active in the AVS forum should vote though. Otherwise its just a popularity contest (my popularity must be sky-rocketing) and the person most suited to the job may not get it.

Yathosho · 25th March 2003, 14:50

tuggummi: you got my voice

wondering how 19 voted in here. fake-accounts? also i'm wondering if that vote will have any effect, as one of the other moderators pointed out in the other thread.

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 15:57

well daftcunt...no offense...but 1) you're new here and 2) you haven't exactly got a good reputation at devart yourself.

<edit> i retract my previous statement, looks like you're doing better off than you were a while back...i apologize

welcome to the forums. </edit>

legohead · 25th March 2003, 21:12

Yeah well if you want a dictator - vote #1 Atero! YAY!

I don't think Rova will allow another mod - its the general impression I got.

By the way it is unusual to have so many people vote.
Are there that many regular forum subscriberS?

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 21:21

since when am i a "dictator"? i'm only an ass to you because thus far you've been a moron.

anubis2003 · 25th March 2003, 21:26

Please don't bring this back. Chill now.

Raz · 25th March 2003, 21:31

Sorry atero but i agree with legohead. You may be knowledgable and respected but you have a short temper and it may result in unecessary bannings or flame wars from mods. Mods don't flame, they say, "flame again, and you're gone". Also i agree that although we are having this poll, i don't think Rovastar will mod anyone. Your third point i had already pointed out in an earlier post.

Atero, you shouldn't be an ass to anyone regardless of whether they're moronic or not. If they are simply point it out and correct them or ignore it.

anubis2003 · 25th March 2003, 21:34

Rova isn't the only one that can mod people, although he will have a lot of influence(I think). I think I may ask some other mods and see what they think.

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 21:56

i reiterate...would you guys lay off? the only time i've flamed someone in months is with legohead, and he really fuggin pisses me off. and you'll note that it was him who started the flaming - i just said as a mod i'd ban him if he continued to act like a moron and do things like needlessly insult people (which, you will also note, he proceeded to do.)

That's a less severe form of flaming right there. There is guilt on both sides. Just because he says something to you doesn't mean that you have to say something back. Let him get in trouble - I think it will be coming soon anyways.

dirkdeftly · 25th March 2003, 22:28

"Let him get in trouble - I think it will be coming soon anyways."

sounds like a 'less severe form of flaming' to me....

anubis2003 · 25th March 2003, 22:35

No, I didn't say anything bad about him. I am merely referring to the fact that he could be getting in trouble if he continues to make remarks like he has been. I made no personal remarks about him. I did not call him a moron or anything else that could be classified as flaming.

Raz · 25th March 2003, 23:29

Isn't it ironic how the method in which we try to prevent flaming and pointless posts has led to more arguments, flaming and just plain conflict as well as lots of unnecessary posts than i've seen in the past few weeks put together.

anubis2003 · 25th March 2003, 23:37

Yeah, but that could be somewhat related to there not being an active mod watching this forum(for the last few weeks, at least). I've noticed a lot of things being said that I don't think Rovastar or the other mod's would tolerate without saying something.

dirkdeftly · 26th March 2003, 01:34

"No, I didn't say anything bad about him. I am merely referring to the fact that he could be getting in trouble if he continues to make remarks like he has been."

i.e. acting like a moron?

shreyas_potnis · 26th March 2003, 07:02

uh..do you get PAID when you are a mod?

Tuggummi · 26th March 2003, 07:41

PAID? You oughta be kidding. Why should they get paid? They are already gods so i don't think they should get paid for being a god

shreyas_potnis · 26th March 2003, 08:03

The thought came to my mind, as they do work here, so they could be paid by NULLSOFT

Are they? What do you think is so cool about beeing a mod?

Have a look at Polymorph Forum if you want. I'm Admin there, the überGod so to speak. There's nothing cool about it, just the duty to keep it running and up to date.

Tuggummi · 26th March 2003, 08:39

Im just pulling your leg guys

Being a moderator is indeed great responsibility, but they still don't get paid. I just don't understand where that idea of payment comes from. Being a mod is a job you have to do with care and requires constant activity, but still you gotta admit that everybody else looks up to you also

Anyway, this thread isn't going anywhere anymore and i don't understand why im writing this

Magic.X · 26th March 2003, 09:02

Because you need to get your überPostPump.

btw who introduced the "über"

Tuggummi · 26th March 2003, 09:05

I believe it was Atero who first said über around the forums

And you're right about the postpump

You know me too well, i might have to "erase" you...

Magic.X · 26th March 2003, 09:13

Bah, you're not even a Mod.

But if you're just a bit of a man, take your sword and fight!

Thank god not, but it's good to know that 2 people would like to see me as a mod. Makes me feel special and all warm&fuzzy inside

Magic.X · 26th March 2003, 09:22

Well if you want, i can Mod you in my Forum as i'm the überGod there.

But you'll have to learn German first.

Tuggummi · 26th March 2003, 09:28

Is "Sieg heil" enough german?

You can ask UnConeD to mod or El-vis, or Skupers
