If TJP gets the spot, FUALL will not be pleased, and vice versa 
So a neutral is better so none is unpleased like it would be if it was one sided and have topics created on decisions etc..

the position is not about FUALL / TJP , its about forum users and forum mods.
I'm shure it wil take some time but if the OM is any good @ his job both sides wil accept him/here , all you seem to think about is there are only 2 factions ingame , and ingame is not the forum , with the TJP / FUALL vision you show here it is obvius to me that you wold not be the correct person for the job , but then again i'm shure other ppl wold actually be happy to see you nominated.
It may sound harch but nobody wold be perfect for everyone.
No it's not me the selected one

(don't think I would like it anywayz

), if I say this it's because I seen much "I got warned because the mod is on other side so doesnt like me etc". Anyway the former ombudsman is one most likely to know who fits the best since he had this role for long, and knows many people in this forum.

I've never heard such rubbish in my life, base a decision for a position that will require someone to put in-game alliances to the side on the basis that they don't have a link to any warring alliances???
what happens if the person appointed joins one side or the other later on? or has more friends in 1 Empire than the other? Do you realise how pathetic that sounds? lol
As I said, many people call mods decision biased on warns just because the person is on other side, so it's not like if I was trying to invent some ideal world theory vs reality...And mods are from both sides, so it's balanced, ombuds(wo)man is one person, so bias calling if the person is not from any side, (if supports one in secret, it's not a problem, everyone supports one side...or both lmao) the bias wouldn't sound that obvious and it would be ok, as this role doesn't mean full neutrality and robotism heh.
Not saying no linked people, just not one with two feet in one of the sides. Everyone is linked, but not everyone is simply "in".

Yes it's politicians' politics, but heck, one has to expect this stuff from me...

Though I wonder why I still care about this ombuds(wo)man thing lol
