Taking Nominations for New Moderators - NOW CLOSED

[non parata est]

Tack another one on for PJC and for nealric.  I haven't seen anything to suggest that they'd be anything but thorough and impartial in their modly duties.

[Julie Fern]

sadly, julie must excuse from consideration.  apparently republicans may be posting.

[UnbiasedObserver]

I agree with others that Matthies and Nudum would be good moderators.  They both seem fairly impartial, and I know (at least wrt Matthies) that he is here often!

[TimMitchell]

PJC
IrrX
Matthies
MA
Eta: Blueskies

[Julie Fern]

no, absolutely not.  julie not reconsider.

[Cool Beans]

I would like to nominate myself.  I feel that moderatoring LSD would serve as an excellent resume listing and consequently, vehicle to my dream job - moderator of TLS.

[Naked Promise]

Oh, that's you?

One, two, three, four

Awww Irrx. Didn't realize you were still on here. How's life?

I have to admit I'm kinda surprised so many people concurred in my self-nomination. Thanks peeps.

Also, I lul'd at cool beans.

Lastly, I love that everyone just ignores Fern now.

Lastly, I love that everyone just ignores Fern now.

We're pretty good here at not feeding the trolls.  At least ones that have been around since the dawn of human civilization! 

(Sorry, Julie. I couldn't resist.)

[Miss P]

I think there are a lot of great names up there (particularly IrrX, lackofabetteridea, Unbiased Observer, and sheltron, who have exhibited a lot of careful thought about how the board would work best -- but really everyone listed is a great candidate).  I do, however, understand people's concerns that the new mod or mods not be associated strongly with any of the board's "cliques."  I have a few additional names to throw into the mix (because they are unfailingly pleasant and generally straight-shooting types), but I don't know if they are at all interested, visit the site enough, etc.:

Hipcathobbes
Observationalist
non parata est

I would also like to nominate Elephant Lee, though I believe he has already said that he doesn't want to do it, alas.

[Pardon Johnny Cash.]

I'd like to nominate Nealric and non parata est.  And that the ultra ambitious Cool Beans - I feel like I know him in another life.

eta:  I did not realize that nudum was Amped.  I remember Amped as a pretty decent dude and if he wants the job, I'd support that.
