More like.."He's just going to cause unwanted problems."

You want to know why you probably won't become a Moderator, let alone a General Moderator? You tell the Admins that the people they hand picked or agreed to be placed there are doing a **Filtered** job, thus reflecting poorly upon their judgement and slapping them in the face.

Either way, good luck with your appeal even if the chances seem slim to me.

Re: A request if I may

Hey there, Tetris



I am wondering something, you say you want to be a mod, but in other thread you say you are very busy with RL stuff, but you have lots of time to come on the forums.

So you want to mod a forum of "a silly game" that you dont play, but have time to play have the forum of the game?


This is what I dont get, Can you please tell me why as so I wont be confused anymore?

Thanks

P.S. I hope this does not affect you of being conseriderd to be a Mod.

Re: A request if I may

I was under the impression applications were called for every quarter.

I'd like to know why the Admins should consider your application, and no one else's, outside of the usual time frame.

Imo, if you want consistancy and equality, you need it in all things, not just when you want it. Applying when everyone else also has a fair chance would seem more in line for what you speak of.

Re: A request if I may

Tetris, you would make an interesting ombudsman, accompanied by another person.
For moderator.. I know how it is to want to become a moderator but be too 'controversial' to be a feasible choice.
Better try for an 'easier' spot, racemod, maybe Ascension mod, somewhat lighter sections where you could gather experience.

It helps if you are a regular in that specific area.. for example, I became a Misc mod (which is unlikely in your case, what with you and Jack fighting that much..) while being a regular visitor and poster there. Being a racemod provided some good experience, and being a Misc mod even more so.



As the others have said though.. you'll need to show why you're exceptional compared to the others. ;) I'm sure that won't be too much of a problem for you.. but you'll need to go the same way everyone else takes.
And who knows.. it might not be that unfeasible.

Re: A request if I may

As just a regular player with no bias, I'm overall not impressed tetris. You seem to have a bone to pick with all authority, and when they finally get banned or warned or whatever, you gloat. It doesn't seem to be the mod staff so much as the fact that they have authority.


Here's my question:
If they made you mod, and someone in another section refused to warn a player who said something that bothered you, how would you handle it?

just because someone says somethng to bother me doesn't give me the right, if I was a mod, to act foolish and cry and complain. I rarley get into it with anyone on these forums. Also, if your refering to me laughing at jt being banned, well we have never sen eye to eye, let's just say that. Mods when modding must act with respect, unbiased and calm, cool manner. I was in NJROTC for 4 years, and was 3rd in command of over 120 students. I have much experience when handling delicate situations, and can end things before they start.

I beg the admins to allow me to be a mod for 1 week, with any extra rules and regs, and I will show you that I'm more than capable of modding and can help fix the inconsistancy here. What do you have to lose? I will be playng by your rules on your court.

lol, JROTC is high school, dude thats competely different from here. YOu interact wit them on a day to day bases. Here you really dont cause we are 100 of miles away from each other. they are kids ranging from 14 to 18. here we got people from all ages.

I know what JROTC does. I know what it stands for. I also know its mission is to moviate(spelling) people to become better citiezens.

thats a joke, you should earn the status like the rest of us, besides one week means nothing, its too short a time to see what actually goes on :P


Earn? You got yours by popularity vote. Same goes for the voting taking place for each new mod, popularity. I was upset I think the second time I was past up for being a mod to users with 150 posts and very little active. Please tell me how they "earned" it or even how someone "earns" becoming a mod.
The Admins/Global Mods decided the Mods in the last round of selections when I got my spot, I do believe. So it's not popularity.

Re: A request if I may

Children, children.. stop being fools and give the man some serious replies instead of posting this, that and all kinds of unrelated things in this thread.

If Tetris wants to apply to the administration, he can do so.
However, Tetris, I suggest you do so in private with the three admins, and not here in public where it's most likely to become a spamfest. ;)





Btw, ROTC-experience is a good thing you could list as distinguishing you from the rest of people who'd want to apply.


Good luck!
ANYONE spamming this thread will receive a warning, you have all been forewarned.

Of course. :)
Make sure to let a moderator know when you want to continue this thread, okay?
