Who would you nominate to be a Mod for a Day then?
Seriously!! (well, as seriously as you bunch can make it). Try to give logical and reasoned answers please, explaining why you think your nominee would be suitable and effective.
And nothing negative - I don't want to know who you wouldn't want to be a Mod for a Day cos I've got my own list! I look forward to reading your nominations.

:high-smile: :high-smile:
I've borrowed some of Sarge's special ink cos he's out working!
I need REASONS folks. No good just saying the first name that you can think of or the name the person before you said.
Reasons to Mod up please??
Roger - can't wait for 05 September to be honest! Had enough of this place. rolleyes :roll:
:happy: :happy: :happy:
noooooooooooooo, don't give it to postie, he'll abuse his power and go round stitching up poor defenceless posters poke
he might appear funny and clever but it's a facade, he's not who he appears, be afraid, be very afraid :twisted: :twisted: :scared:
i nominate myself...... fair but firm, understanding, with that bilko-like sarcasm :thumbup:

OK i think posie because he has time on his hands to post in here..........and he is funny and witty.....and and you can have a joke with him with out him taking it the wrong way!
If he tell s you off for somthing............he would be respected for it ..................... why because he is very popular and has gained respect in his short time in here!
not only that i do not mind having a slap from a man :twisted:
Debs goes off to take in a deep breath
OK. Seriously.
I thought about it and then decided to go and look at the top 100 forum users, a load of really good posters in there, but for me someone really stood out...
And i nominate, as Mod for a day...
Fabio Grooverider.

He's a very decent guy, most of his posts, that i seem to recall, are spot on and down-right helpful. He's well known , organises munches and isn't averse to pointing out when someone is being a bit ... erm... wrong, but fairly and without being nasty.
And he has a fantastic wig.
Fabio for president ! Erm, I mean Fabio for Mod for a day...
I would vote for wishmaster.
He has alwas come across as fair and he doesnt flounce.
He is a genuinely nice guy.
He seems to have the "swinging" ethos/lifestyle/motto down really well.
This has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I fancy him rotten - much!
I am going to nominate DreamerHelen. (serious post)
Reasons:
1) She has been a member on here for a long time and as far as I know has managed to avoid offending too many people.
2) She has shown her commitment to the site already when it comes to organising Munches etc.
3) She spends half her life at her computer anyway so would be here to catch the TTTT at any time of day or night.
4) She always has time for people whether they are newbies or not.
5) She would secretly love to have a go for the day even though she will hate me for saying so. lol
6) She is a good friend and wont ban me when I post something stupid!
Roger the Dragon cool
I know number six is a reason against but I cant be serious all the time. :twisted:
I've deleted all the silly posts - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep this serious. I've already had one nomination by PM cos the person didn't want to post it here and it was good.
*deep breathe*
So... serious and considered nominations please.

I gave reasons jags biggrin and as much as hate to admit it, i stand by them :D Reading his posts makes me think he would be fair but firm.
He has time on in hands, and is always there with a friendly smile, help and advice and doesn't judge peeps because they are differant
My vote goes to Sarah (formerly Sarah1448) for the following reasons:
She has the maturity to deal with sensitive issues fairly but she also has a sharp sense of humour and gets involved in the giggles we have in here. She has organised - or helped others organise - many socials / munches / meets. She is also one of SH's Mentors for newbies needing help. (hope I wasn't supposed to say that, please edit if I'm wrong). Sarah is an all round bloody nice person but she will mercilessly slap down anyone who is being a general ass.
My vote goes to jointly to Wishmaster and Dambuster for the following reasons:

Plaguerism Hurts!!... hehehe ... and it's WishMASTER not bloody Wishamster!!!
This is one of those popularity contests - not a good thing here in my view. Never indulge in 'em - that's my position and advice to others.
Sorry!
Sexysteph gets my vote.
She is always ready to help the newbies and point them in the right direction.
I think she would make a great Mod. (she shouts at me enough. lol )
Fred (expecting nil votes)

Fred said that smile
Okay on a serious note. We would like to nominate:
Wishmaster
Reasons:
His posts are aways witty.
His is always Honest, even though at times harsh.
He is fair
He has been a member of the site for a long while and is well known.
He helped a lot of people with problems.
Hope these reasons are good enough
I would recommend SexySteph as she can't help people enough,also very considerate person, She's organised munches, She seems good at coping under any pressure !!

Sorry!

I'm with Tune.
Being popular doesn't necessarily make a good moderator.
While I'm not quite sure why anyone would want to be a mod for a day, as it looks like a lot of hard work slogging through the trolls and photo ad abusers, I'd say Tattyxpx has the right balance of skills to control the rabble, which she has ably proved in the chatroom.... of course we'd need to send one of the chatphobic forum mods over to the chatroom to take her place, which could be highly entertaining!

Oh pick me, pick me, I'll go do it :giggle:
Just out of interest, how doyou decide on who becomes mods? Is it like a vote where you have several members then choose? When do you decide new mods are needed? Is it every X number of members?

Don't accept a drink off of any Mod at a munch..... you'll find a shilling at the bottom and you'll get press-ganged for 5 years service... just like in they used to do to get recruits into the Royal Navy
