You should think about it, the mod thing. It doesn't even matter that you're not gay because 90% of this forum isn't.
I don't have a strong opinion either way, but if it did happen, there's no point. I'd disagree on a lot of principles the Mods seem to espouse, but I'd be the only one, so I'd be outvoted and outmanned. :P
An opposing faction will at least give the forum government an excuse for their dysfunctionality. Not unlike the US government.

In that case, I'd rather not be a scapegoat for the perceived failings of this forum government. ;)

I wasn't really serious. It would be interesting to see what they'd do if the anons voted in a reg as mod that isn't a part of their clique and is somebody they actively disliked. Not that I think they dislike you, but that's my assumption.

Neither was I, don't worry, haha. Well, I've given them plenty of reason to dislike me, so I'm not really bothered on that front. Personally, I think they'd rather keep the power in their clique for this exact reason, so I don't expect anyone not in it to be a Mod anytime soon, even if they're all busy.

Logically speaking, there's no cap on the number of mods this forum can have simultaneously. If they can decide unilaterally that they need an extra mod to relieve them of their workload, the anons can also unilaterally declare that we need an additional mod to run this forum more efficiently. Isn't that how it works?

Logically speaking yeah, you all could nominate someone, and usually we'd make a poll to select that person, but seeing how easily polls can get rigged though...unless you suggest another option to select one.

We used polls before. So are you saying those could be rigged and the results are invalid?

So you shouldn't be a mod, then? Is that what you're saying? Well then. Step down, please.

Uhh, no. What I'm saying is that people could use as many proxies as necessary to have the person they want selected as a mod. We could try and be as transparent as we can (show you pics and shit to show that cheating occured), but you'd still not believe us anyhow.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why are you even talking about a new mod, anyway? We have enough mods and admins, do we need more? Btw, I supported Arti for mod before we had Frost, and tbh now I wouldn't want her as a mod for this place. Not after that whole childish drama due the forum's new theme. Nothing against you, Arti, but that made me believe that you wouldn't be a good mod.

That's not the issue. We're past that. I'm saying, if polls are not a reliable means of gauging anons' opinions, does that mean that no decisions will be made from now on? Or does that mean that decisions will be made without taking anons' opinions into account at all?

You catch my drift, mod?

Once again turning words around.

Yeah, polls might not be the most reliabe way to make decisions now, but we can find another way. And we do take the users anons into account, we always do and I dunno why you want to make it look like we don't, but whatever, you have some sort of grudge against us. Sadly, we can't please everybody.

Why do you think I have some grudge against you? You don't know me, and I haven't posted here before. Check my IP. Everybody who doesn't like the way you do shit has a grudge against you now? Your victim complex amuses me.

I want a concrete plan. If somebody is rigging these polls, how are you going to gauge forum users' opinions on future issues? Concrete plan.

Also, when are you stepping down? How do you know the poll that put you in the mod seat isn't rigged?

We need a revote for all the mods. Right now.

Oh well, my bad then, you sounded awfuly familiar.

I don't know, we considered using the Forum polls, but they only allow registered to vote, also considered making a thread (or using this one) to have users post a yes or no decision, but it would be back to square one, users using proxies to have their way.

SA Ans isn't it ironic that in order to decide whether a revote is in order we'd have to make a poll for it? Huehuehuehuehue...

Nah, I respect that reason. I did behave in a childish way. I'll always admit when I feel I've done something wrong, or acted in a way that wasn't warranted.

In any case, to anon:

I think Artichoke would be okay as mod. I think she'd be fair as far as actual modding goes. She's childish because she's on an anonymous forum after all. There's nothing wrong with that. She's not the type to ignore logic or abuse her power.

Theoretically, in the near future, we could try to vote her (or whoever else) in and if the mods try to throw away the poll, we can tell them to fuck off because their votes were probably rigged too.

SA Yeah... Let's settle on that. We're not gonna let this experience give them a free pass to throw away poll results that don't suit their fancy and keep results that do suit their fancy. Amirite?
