So although I believe this is in vain....

"hear, hear!"

Everyone else supports the war and wants to kill everyone's first-born for population control.

I support Unfan for moderator. I'd agree that he's active and musically knowledgeable, and would also say that he would bring a beneficial perspective to the mod team.

Yeh, The UnFan, for the same reasons as starving. JJJ also, the nicest guy here and knows a ****load about music.

Among the old guys, JJJ is never angry ever, and he's pretty smart. He'd make a good mod. Sweet Nothing is an isomaniac or whatever so I bet he is always on. The UnFan is pretty level headed.

Let me add here that knowing a ****load about music is as valuable for a mod as knowing a ****load about films, or gardening.

Here are some hard things you face as a mod:

1. Direct attacks. if you started as a regular member and are now a mod, you responses have to change. You can't spit fire like you used to you can ban people haphazardly. You want someone who knows when to walk away but isn't a pushover.

2. Intermixing. Ever see those debates that toggle between good points and vicious insults. Knowing when to step in or not to step in, knowing how to get it back on track without using your mod powers. Thats what you need, can your suggestions pull that off?

3. One of the team ****s up. What if another mod does something you said wouldn't happen? Or you're vehemently against? We know you can respond, can you respond in a manner that doesn't set the forums on fire?

4. Friends. Some of us have affinity for other members. However ever fleeting these might be, it may come to pass that you have to smash an old aquintence with the Ban Hammer like you're Thor. Make sure this is business, and all business. Rules are rules, and while judgements should never be made quickly, they should be made. When they are you should be ready to stand tall.

Taking all those points into consideration I would like to put forward names of mods I want taken off.
