Actually I've been working on one, I'm still tweaking my design. I hope it gets implemented as quickly as the evil one did, thanks bmiler! FM also helped me too, I didn't know it, but he proposed addidng another smilie too. <- my design though, simple yet effective.

[Artanis]

Oh isn't this perfect?
Soo perfectly ... evil. Heh.

[BeardofPants]

Hehe. doesn't it remind you of wayfarer's smile:

[Finrod Felagund]

Yeah, speaking of which, wasn't Jonathan supposed to come back 1 week later? And it's been at least two. Hmm... maybe he's actually counting on JD being allowed to campaign for him in the Official Debate.

He's back from vacation, I'll poke him with a stick and make him post.

Don't worry, though, you will have a very strong VP, should we be voted into office.

EDIT: He's working on a school paper. Where are his priorities?

[Nurvingiel]

I just want to apologize for a misunderstanding about the evil smilie. I did design a smilie just like this , but apparently, I actually didn't have anything to do with the new smilie. It was possibly Fat Middle, he was actually involved with the project. I emailed him probably quite near to when they were ready to add it, so it appeared to me that they were using my idea, when really, they were using their own idea that I thought of independently sometime after.

Actually, you did have something to do with it. Your email helped me to retake the idea we had have a month ago and to put Ben to work in it.

[Valandil]

Now, MY candidate has hesitated to thrust herself forward, but almost all of you know her quite well! As she has always demonstrated by her kindness, helpfulness, patience, maturity, wit, sense of humor, knowledge of JRR Tolkien's work and commitment to this board, I think there could be no better candidate for President of Entmoot than Sister Golden Hair!!!

Some may wonder why, as admin, she should desire to be President. We can let her speak for herself on that one. However, some of her opponents, I fear, have planted notions that she's scheming to make some sort of 'power grab'. What a silly notion! As an administrator - and arguably the most visible admin present on the board - she has consistently demonstrated responsible use of power. That speaks volumes!

[Beor]

Arguably the most visible, but definitely the most active, and when has she ever used the power she already has inapproiately? She hasnt, that is the answer. Sister Golden Hair has always been a constant source of support for the entire population of the Entmoot, and she has always been dedicated to running a smooth, appropriate board, and has been whole-heartedly dedicated to making this a comfortable and accepting place to be.

I would say that as an admin, she has already demonstrated to everyone why she should be president, as she already has more of the level of responsibility on her shoulders than she would need as president, and we have all seen this on several occasions. This election, to not give Sister Golden Hair your vote, would be like not listening to Gandalf's wise advice. Vote for the candidate that has been pulling the weight of a President all along, vote for Sister Golden Hair

Thanks FM.

Welcome to the Open House guys! It's nice to have representatives from other parties in here. Previous questions that have been asked include, "What do you feel about spam?" as well as Tessar's excellent list of questions (from the Presidential debate thread.)

I don't think you could say SGH is the most active campaigner, but she's done a lot for the board and has been around the longest (of the candidates) as well.

[Finrod Felagund]

Hmmm...It seems everyone is letting their VP's do all the talking. Well I'm here, and I think you all know me well enough to know that I care only for the well-being of Entmoot and the furthering in the world of Tolkien knowledge. And to enlighten "movie-only" fans to read the books!

[Drgnslyer]

Those are very valuable qualities Finrod, and definately needed to be President, however those are echoed through all the candidates...in order to really seperate yourself from the field you need to be unique, and have a responsible staff to help yourself....running a one man show can be seen as not willing to work in a team, as well with any workload it's more effecient to distribute it amongst a few capable people to get the highest quality work done.

Just some food for thought for all candidates.

Thank you Valandil and Beor.

To comment on the spam question: As an admin and former super mod, it has been my job to make Entmoot spam free. As we all know though, some spam is inevitable. It is important not to be heavy handed as long as it is not taken to extreams. Just like threads veering off topic, there must be some allowances within reason, without being heavy handed. As your president you are guaranteed with me that your rights as a mooter are protected under the rules and you are guarenteed the right to post freely without fear of reprimand or ban without due process. You can be sure that I am always here to help as admin and to fairly represent you to the Entmoot staff as your president. And although I am an admin, I am a mooter first.

I don't think you could say SGH is the most active campaigner, but she's done a lot for the board and has been around the longest (of the candidates) as well.

Thank you Nurv. I will be answering Tessar question soon.

[Finrod Felagund]

I never said I wanted to do it alone. I am always in need of assistance as any president should be!

[Jonathan]

Alright, there hasn't been much campaigning from my side the past few weeks. But that's going to change, from this moment I'm in the presidential race for real.

I've answered Tessar's questions in the The Official Entmoot Presidential Debate thread. I will answer any further questions here as well as debate with the other candidates
