Rally Behind Your President!

hectorberlioz · 09-14-2006, 05:45 PM

If the mods really think they have to close this down, fine....but the reason for this thread is for the individuals of Entmoot to vote for or against a Mod for the CS Lewis forum (Sun-Star), and also if they think Earniel deserves an Admin status.

IMO, most of the Admins are asleep/no longer existent. SGH is the only one, and she stays out of the Moot Eye for the most part. Earniel, on the other hand, is with us on a normal (or abnormal, depending on whether you think staying on the internet for that amount of time is unhealthy

) basis.

If anyone deserves to be elevated to Admin, it's her. Spock too, but his turn hasn't come yet...

While it may seem oxymoronic to "vote" for more people who will control us, I submit that Earniel is probably the least oppresive of the mods. In fact, while modding has been kept up to par, Admins have been distinctly lazy. This goes for SGH as well. Earniel is basically already our mother and teacher(

), so why can't she be officially recognized as such?

And I say that while this thread may not get any "real votes" in for what has to be done, we can at least express our opinions.

Butterbeer · 09-14-2006, 06:35 PM

a one horse vote heh?

that's president's fer ya ... patronage i say!

well, i already cast me hat into da ring for cs mod

BTW what you say of Big Vern is true ....

... an unhealthy amount of time

...er.. i mean the other bit

So - i suggest we cut a deal behind closed doors whilst having a public show of voting - sun star stands against me, Big vern is forwarded as an Admin in the dream ticket, leaving the rpg mod to someone sensible ...

ahem.

As Rpg mod i then stand aside graciously in favour of Sunstar ...and we ignore the popular vote to make Ruinel CS lewis Mod.

Agreed?

You have my vote

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-14-2006, 07:00 PM

I rally!

Go, Earniel! Go, sun-star! Go, Generalissimo!

Ruinel as Lewis mod, hehehe

Butterbeer · 09-14-2006, 07:02 PM

Now keep an open mind there Gwai! ... p.s. you missed the rpg 'GO'!

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-14-2006, 07:19 PM

Go...isn't that an ancient Asian board game?

*wiki wiki*

Yep.

durinsbane2244 · 09-14-2006, 07:38 PM

i'm all for it! go commander-in-chief! go earniel! and yeah, spock needs to be admin! go spock!

Butterbeer · 09-14-2006, 07:42 PM

you want the president, earniel and Spock all to go?

boy you are a hard crowd to please!

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-14-2006, 07:45 PM

He wants to get everyone out of the way, so his victory will be assured in '08.

Those Valaraukar (What's the Sindarin plural?) are shifty, but you have to get up early in the morning to get one past ol' Gwai. *puffs his pipe*

*in real life goes out for a fag*

Butterbeer · 09-14-2006, 07:50 PM

*Lights up a cigar*

... plus all these crop circles he keeps leaving lying around ... all the dust you know ... it's a political intergalatic smokescreen methinks.

hectorberlioz · 09-14-2006, 08:34 PM

Hey, no mudslinging (esp. not at me...)

Now, to wake the giants, we shall have to make this thread so long (et gloriosum) as to make every authoritarian figure on the 'Moot shake in their boots!...All so we can have more of them

...

But will we, I ask? With all the admins asleep, all the other mods gone/dead, having Earniel as Admin and Spock, Val as the two awesome moderators, life on Entmoot will be...ok, I'll say it; Nirvana

.

Of all the unprejudiced, capable, beautiful, ecumenical (Jack Sparrow's influence here), and sociable people to lead the Moot: Earniel, the Belgian Frog!

durinsbane2244 · 09-14-2006, 08:34 PM

HA! go? no! i support them, foolish tender of the bar! too many heroes in there...

Bravo, our Bandito Numero Dos is also with us!

I meant it as in, "I'm sure glad DB isn't dead...glad he's still with us"

durinsbane2244 · 09-14-2006, 08:43 PM

WHAT?! oooh, you read my posts. read, past tense. i thought you were telling me to read them. gotcha. yeah, i'm here!

hectorberlioz · 09-14-2006, 08:50 PM

Back to the real business:

The only way to get Earniel elevated...is to pick her up, of course. But since we're talking metaphorically about status, we'll have to do something far harder. And that is make Ben or SGH take notice. This is why we must not stop posting, this is why we must go sleepless for nights on end...

The Mods in general want you to think that we don't NEED anymore people of their status. They say this in the same way that tyrants say they don't need advice from God. Well they do! The fair and balanced division of Government among several groups keeps power away from concentrating in the hands of one corrupt person. It would be fine and dandy if we had a fair ruler, but thats not how the world works...and for you Monarchists: Earniel would kick butt as ruler

Note: I DO endorse the idea of BB for RPG mod.

durinsbane2244 · 09-14-2006, 09:05 PM

do you endorse the idea of DB for...for...*sigh of sorrow* nothing....

hectorberlioz · 09-14-2006, 09:08 PM

The Demands Made to the Administrators & Moderators of Entmoot

#1) That Earniel be elevated to Admin status by Thanksgiving Day.

#2) That Sun-Star be Mod for the CSL forum, and as an attachment; BB as mod for the rpg forum

#3) That lazy/dead former mods or Admins be stricken, this on the condition that you mods use the argument of: "*WHINE*We have too many mods/admins." If that is truly the case, the lazy/dead ones ought to be stricken from their positions. Not to be mean, but they are, after all, not participating at a level which renders them competent.
Note however, that if you do not wish to strike them down, you don't not have to if you are also willing to appoint the above suggestions.
