Mod Idol

due to recent events, you may have noticed our forum is modless, now, the globals sometimes venture in here and do their job, very well i might add *takes off hat* but the globals cant always be here, Global= all over, so at times they are gonna have to be in other forums

what we need is a mod, now i figured that seeing as it will be our mod we should get some say in the matter, so this thread is where we can decide who we would like to be our mod. as the decision is ultimately up to raz and his council of mods no guarentees to the person we pick

now, and idea was brought up in the first annual tig party about this, and a decision was made that we would like to have two mods appointed, one from europe, one from america to enable modding at all times,

the person you pick must be
online often
a knowledgable person
sombody who you know you can respect
and sombody you know you will listen to if they have important information, or need to say something

commence 😛

edit: no self nominations!

Oooooo what an interesting thread...I vote you sauron haha 😄 and ummmm Exa maybe or shadowy 🙂

EEEXXXXAAAAAA😛

I vote AD for American mod...

Interesting Concept..... seeing as the last time it worked out soooooo welll...... lets see our last "Mod Idol" lasted months.... and as soon as she became mod ppl started turning against her... the same ppl who voted for her in the first place....... wonderful Idea reallly.....

I nominate Exa for Europe and AD and/or Shadowy for America

yeah AD and Exa !!!

What purpose does this thread have here in the LOTR forum ??? I mean, here we are trying to keep things clean, and then we create a pointless thread like this one !

This decision is not up to us people ! And if it was...I wouldn't put too much faith in our own decisions after the last Mod we had ( sorry kit ). This decision is up to Raz, and him alone. This is his show and I am sorry to say, HE has the last word on who he appoints as Mod.

All this thread is designed for is to hurt peoples feelings ( "how come no one voted for me " ) I can see it now !!!!!

But thanks to those that voted for me 😛

i don't want to be a mod to much resposibility and tbh i just cant be arsed lol

and yea this really should of went in the GDF

^^AD wearing his mod head^^

yes but i am saying that we should at least, as regular visitor of this particular forum, decide who we would like to be our mod, if you re-read the first post you will realise i do state that the final decision is up to raz

or did you just not read it?

yes, but once bitten twice shy should not be our motto...we were...not so informed...but due to recent events as Sauron so eloquently stated, i think we are a bit more how shall i put...AWARE!!!

but two seems the way to go...one on both sides of the atlantic...and we in the forum could pm either one so as not to let a few loonies run about and create silly nilly threads if they are somehow overlooked by the mods...aside from the OTF and the GDF...this forum has quite a lot of members going about and doing their bizziness...and we all know each other...if not personally...

but i do however if it were aloud nominate either Exa and AD...Sauron luv ya, ya big galoot...but if you get serious on me i'll have to board vingolot(sp) and knock one over yah...you are the ying to my yang...

the hardy to my oliver...how am i gonna be funny without your banter? 😛

actually i take back my votes i don't want people i like to become mods then fall out with them so forget my first post!

I repeat the last time that we picked our mod we did a WONDERFUL job.

How come noone voted for me?🙁

Joke...

yes, i know last time we picked it wasnt exactly our finest hour
but kitoky was in all a good mod, removed what she should have, edited what she should have....all of it
if she hadnt have lied she would still be modding, so it was not our fault as to who we picked because imo we picked well

now i am just saying that we should think of who could maybe be our mods

raz may become aware of this thread and observe the members picked or some who were picked quite often and decide between them who should be mod

That is not my point....

And on a side note it was Raz who opened this thread last time... he wanted the information..... as to right now he has not requested it. If he asks by all means I will tell him what I think but until then.......

^^agrees...we can still pick who we want...it doesn't mean it will be so as it will still be up to raz...and maybe he'll be a little hesitant of what happened before...but common sense will tell him to at least ask our opinions and weigh all available options that will be beneficial to all concerned parties...yeah?

basically we need a mod, the forum will get out of hand, raz is a reasonable guy and last time he asked our opinions and i believe he will want to know them again, this thread is gathering them early to save time as time is of the essence, did you know kmc gets about 50 new people a day, imagine all them making hello how hot is orli thread while we have no mod!

Or other pointless threads for that matter. !

Yes, Sauron...I did read where you said in your original post that the final decision is up to Raz...but why create a thread that has nothing to do with LOTR...was not requested...and may not even mean anything in the end ???

Once again it will show to Raz that we are not even capable of keeping things buttoned down ourselves.

I do like the idea of having two threads...but therein lies a problem...

What if one Mod allows a thread...and the other doesn't...are we going to have then a shooting match between Mods as to who has the final sayso ?

What if one Mod is a Orli fan and the other isn't...could you imagine the Chaos ???? I could !!!!!

We should have kept this topic in the Tig Party...for it is off topic, and that is where all of our off topic conversations should go.

It is Raz' decision, but I think as it really concerns our area, the members of the LoTR-forum should also be able to state their opinions? Last times he even made the thread for it himself ^^

All this thread is designed for is to hurt peoples feelings ( "how come no one voted for me "😉

Yep, that's true 🙁

Is it just me or does that remind of a certain other thread 😂

Hm I think as it's really concerning LoTR and our area it's not in the wrong place here

I think most of the members of this area fulfil the suggestions Sauron gave - each member's opinion is respected, everybody is online regularly and most users have an immense knowledge about Tolkien's world.
*hehee* the one who I think would be the absolutely perfect ideal moderator is Shadowy... but I'm not sure if she wants to be one.

Thanks for the nominations 🙂
