An Important Question
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2008 4:07 am
In response to a question, of what do I bring to the position of Ombudsman if elected ?
There has been a significant amount of conflict over choosing the new Ombudsman. Some of witch to be expected, considering the times. Aside from all of that, I have read and learned much about our nominees our forum and its users. We are all very original , opinionated, intelligent and sometimes obscure individuals. Who are dedicated , motivated, and are very passionate about this game and forum.
The above adjectives are what I value most about all of you. I value the candor , humor and intellect witnessed in this forum. I thank you all for challenging any of my preconceived notions , making me smile and laugh every day. I also want to thank you for opening my eyes to international differences and ideals. I would not be here and my game would be very dull and boring without you all.
Having said that, In the roll of Ombudsman where if given the opportunity I would hope to have you trust that I appreciate you for who you are. Know that I understand and appreciate your individuality and expression of self. In turn , allow me the distinct honor of arbitrating on your behalf to ensure your freedoms and self expression.
Now, please understand that I have a deep respect for the rules of this forum. They are there for a reason, to protect us and anyone who might visit from insults, inappropriate content and any negative emotional experience. Experiences which would cause players , or parents of players to be less likely to participate in this valued aspect of the game. The above should go without saying but said any way to express my views.
If elected Ombudsman I hope to achieve balance for you and forum. While respecting and protecting the sanctity of both parties. I expect maturity, reflection and open mindedness from both parties as issues are tabled.
In regards to bias, most know and the rest will learn that I see us as a whole and without tags. We are a group of humans who enjoy a commonality despite our differences and we can work together for a common goal of a great forum regardless of any tag or loyalty.

asking the same question. I dont think its propaganda to answer a question that actually should have been asked from the start and is more relevant than most I have read about the issue.
