How about we just view it as a little moderator/admin fun before the actual announcement, which Brandon said would be later tonight?

If you don't have time for it no big deal. Just come back later.

I'm listening to Buffett. No time for an hour of Brandon and VJ. I'll just check back later.

See how easy it is?

Am I the only one who was excited to watch a vid this long and thankful that they spent their time making it?

I laughed, i played along with the quiz, i had fun searching for it.

Great video!

Okay, okay. Since you all are being so impatient I'll finally reveal the new mods.

Click here to go to the video.
How professional.
you're trying to go on and on about professionalism... may I point out that we actually do this on our own free time, and don't get paid for it?.

Ahhh, now that I'm finally home and have my Mac'n'Cheese, Ice pack on the knot on my head, and I'm in comfy clothes, I think it's time to address the very APPARENT elephant in the room... and I mean VERY APPARENT elephant.

With that being said, I will first off voice that this night is to be about our 2 moderators, nothing else. HOWEVER, since certain individuals decided to act like the children they complain about, I want to first mention a couple things.

1) We are Mods and Admins.
2) We have lives outside of this forum. Any time spent on this forum is not paid, and it's out of our free time.
3) We actually put forth quite an effort in trying to satisfy everybody, but clearly some people want to be sour. With this in mind, it's not easy to satisfy everybody, so we make do.

Which brings me to this. For the individual who wanted to question my position, my professionalism, and my time frame for doing this, I'd like to point out something.

WE are a team, the RPZ staff is. We are a group of individuals who try to work together and communicate together, regardless of our personal lives, because we've made that commitment to the forum. HOWEVER, real life does come first. Since that's the case, our time frame was a fair bit longer than planned, as many of us were not only grieving, but working, and taking care of family members. With that being said, it's hard for us to get to speak over a few things with everyone present and able to voice an opinion. Honestly, be glad we didn't wait until tomorrow or NEXT week like planned. :)

In addition to that, I'd also like to point out this. MY PROFESSIONALISM and how I handle things is in fact unique to me. I'm one of the nicer in the crew, but I will be strict if I have to, and with that in mind, certain people need to be lucky they didn't get reprimanded yet this evening. That doesn't mean it still won't happen, as a select few tried to break the CoC. Oh, the CoC? Yeah. You preach for us to follow the CoC, and yet you break it. Stepping on thin ice much?

With that being said as well, MY POSITION is an Administrator on the forum. I am NOT the only one, and I AM NOT in charge of everything. I may take a leading stance on a few things, we all have to from time to time. However, certain attitudes show us who is fit and who isn't fit to step into this position. Please keep in mind again, that we work as a team as best as we can. We're kinda like a tree. We each reach a different area to try and feed it the water for the leaves.

All of that aside, we will address this. This video was a slight gag, it was unplanned, and not meant to be an hour long. We'll promise you this. Originally, it was only meant to be about 10-20 minutes, with a little bit of trolling, but let's be real. We're known for our gags, y'all should know this. All in all, we have a reason for doing things, sometimes though, we don't. You'll be okay. I informed you earlier that I would announce the mods tonight, and that's what we're here for.


So here's what you've all been waiting for. As stated in the video, Jacob, Matt, and I managed to find the time to interview a few people for the position. It took a little bit of time, but we felt that these 2 people came together rather well, and we're proud of this choice.

The first person we selected is an awesome artist who is very familiar with diversity, bullying, neutral approach to situations, and we felt like his neutral approach really made this person liked by the team. We also feel like he's very liked by the fandom, and very approachable! Our first new moderator will be.......

JACK F. // AVENGERCHUCKE


Our second person has his own youtube, and is more on the social media side of things, he's also well known by the fandom!! Our second new moderator will be.......

ISAIAH N. // CECWESTCOAST

In a few days, we plan to reopen applications for 1 or MAYBE 2 more positions, so as to spread the workload!! Until then, CONGRATULATIONS to our NEW MODS!!

Welcome to the new mods. I'm sorry that the decision process took so long. As people have pointed out, we do this on our free time and many of us knew Jaydan personally, so his untimely death in January hit us hard.

To everyone who can't relax and have some fun, gets upset over every little thing or causes pointless drama, Chuck has a special message...



For those who were curious, the audio is from an early skit with Crusty.

Why would we do that?

Guys, it was just a harmless joke. For fun. It occurred to me later that maybe Rick should have posted the video to make it more obvious but by that time it was done.

We're not going to put you in a work camp, make you copy Nace's haircut or force you learn the accordion.

So just relax.

Hmm...nope. You seem like more of a person to do that thing. Start your own forum! :)

Nace, this is proof of your complete incompetence as admin.

You said you would announce the new mods within a week. It's been almost 2 months, and now instead of giving us a straight answer you treat this like it's some sort of game. You actually expect people to watch an hour's worth of blibbering idiocy in order to find out an answer we genuinely need to know. I regret even filling out the application, because this just goes to prove that I would be moderating a forum run by a complete fool.
