I don't know him that well, but considering some of his posts so far, he seems like just some dude who doesn't care about music any more than any other random dude you could pick off the street.
I agree with your first point about the atmosphere aspect and the faceless company appointing a mod of their own and have always thought personally, that mods should either be voted in by other mods or by other members that have a certain post count (at least 1.000) The mods should also be representative of the sub-forums as well, for example each sub-forum should have somebody well versed in that type of music to give a decent representation across the board.

Second point though is where I differ, the guy has been appointed and he just accepted the job. All I know about him is that he loves Pearl Jam (which is really good) and dislikes Neil Young (which is really bad) we don't know too much about his musical knowledge and his ability to do the job, but he should be given a chance to show what he can do.

For fuck sake it could've been much worse, we could've had Hip Hop Bunny Hop made up to a super-mod and we could've had the Klan running the forum.
