So far, nominees are FT, Konstantinl, KPH, PopTodd, shmoo, Aural Fixation and Charli.

The voting begins. I reserve veto power over anyone who turns out to be a shitty mod.

You can only vote once, so pick your absolute favorite. Top 3 get it.

I'll second Aural.

High level of toleration along with good common sense = good moderator.

i'll second aural fixation. she's online a lot, plus we need some female AND west coast representation.

edit: i guess i'm "third"-ing aural. hmmm, sounds kinky.

Personally, the only people I would feel comfortable as moderators would be FT and Aural Fixation. They seem pretty stable and have no obvious personality disorders.

Anybody else, I'd say no to for one reason or another.

what's your reason for me.

it may just be a lunatic we're looking for.

i think any of those people would do a good job really...konstantin, aural, FT...FT isn't really on line all that much though. Charli would do fine as well as long as she isn't in a moody period.

Ryan, there's a reason why I didn't elaborate on that.

Should I consider that a 2nd, rodney?

yes

you rat bastard

Personally, I wouldn't want anybody from Chicago being a moderator since their motives are somehow always linked to their respective bands, labels, or fiances' bands.

yeah, i always talk about my band

Also, please vote on whether to make OPA!'s permanent rank "Fuckass"

Hey, she's mine. Better watch out buddy!

Yeah, I vote Aural. We NEED west coast representation, don't forget about us over here!

Also- I second the "High level of toleration along with good common sense = good moderator"= Aural = perfect pick.

I also second FT for a moderator as well, because he goes out of his way for the birthday threads, and keeping everyone in the loop through e-mails (when the board was down). That's dedication, man.

Vote for FT and AURAL for Moderators!!!

I vote for FT, Aural, and KonstantinL, if we're choosing three.

Oh, and me, just because epa nominated me.

Vote, bitches.

Exactly what qualifications do both Jen and Todd have that they're put on this list?

Same qualifications as anyone. They were nominated.

Chris I really have no idea what your issues are other then I know you have suddenly been trying to piss off everyone in Chicago one way or another. And I don't just mean through the board.

Get over it.

Uhhh...the bride is a little testy a few days before her wedding. Oh calm down, the only Chicagoan I like to piss off is you. Deal with it.

Actually I'm not testy at all. I'm in quite a happy go lucky mood.

I'm just tired of your antics in trying to provoke me or anyone else. It's rather childish.

I vote for Darrin, because he has experience and he's tough on pork barrel spending.

Besides, I wouldn't know the first thing about moderating a board. I still refer to a laminated cheat sheet each morning to help me put on my pants properly.

Can I invite strangers to come and vote for me??

Btw, since did I become level-headed?? I'M A RRRAWK*, DAMMIT!!
