Moderator for General Politics

[Dave Leip]

Hello all,
I'm looking for a moderator for the general politics section.   I'm interested in someone who is fair, respected amongst his/her peers, and interested in helping to maintain the threads, keep threads on-topic, delete posts/threads that are not adding value, etc.  (perhaps run like an office - nominations, campaign, and a vote   Free atlas membership (Contributor) will be granted.
Thanks,
Dave

Dave,

I am interseted. I obviously spend a lot of time as at the site. I am a payed member (proudly), and I was reelected Governor by 100% of the vote the second time. I am also a candidate for Senate which I expect to win in a big margain.

By general politics, do you mean the fantasy elections or the good forums?

[Jake]

If you mean general politics, I'd be willing to do it.

[Dave Leip]

The four boards under the heading "General Politics"  (U.S. General Discussion, International General Discussion, Individual Politics, and Political Debate).

Dave,

I'd love to do this. I have a lot of free time, am quite active, and I hope that I may have some level of competence. I have past moderation experience on several corporate message boards (if you'd like references, feel free to PM me) and think I could do a decent job.

I'd be honored if you would consider me. :)

[Jake]

Hey, make opebo moderator, or maybe BRTD

[Akno21]

I'd be willing to do it. I have no life, which makes me qualified, and my general tone on the forum is good, and the certain things I have done this job doesn't really entail, so hopefully that won't be an issue.

Mr. Leip,

I vouch for Alcon. He is a fine person who is always fair. I feel he will be the best choice to moderate general politics.

[A18]

All of the people requesting the job would suck.

[Jake]

Alcon would be fine.  Make him take this oath.

I pledge to uphold the honour and dignity of the General Politics Forum. I will show no mercy in defending the board from BRTD, JFraud, Flyers, etc. I do so pledge.

[Gabu]

I was going to nominate myself, but then I saw that Alcon was there, so I'll just go with him.

[A18]

I nominate jfern.

[MAS117]

What about me guys?

[A18]

If you weren't the antichrist, you wouldn't be a bad choice either.

[The Duke]

Damn, I wish I'd seen this before Alcon got here.  I'd have liked the job.

[A18]

John Ford would be a good moderator.

Problem with Alcon is I get the feeling he'd crack down on BRTD's topics too hard, and those are pretty hilarious.

[Jake]

John Ford would be a good moderator.

Hopefully he does.  The best moderator would be AuH20

[Harry]

I'll volunteer.  I'm sure everyone will be repulsed by my doing so, but I'll do it if you want me to.

[Gabu]

The best moderator would be AuH20

Yes, he would be, unless you don't like the Free Republic forums.

[King]

If it would just be for "Individual Politics", I would have applied, but I don't visit the other forums listed that often.

[True Federalist]

I could see doing one forum, but not four of the volume of the General Politics forums.  If you ever look for a moderator for the Other Politics forums, I’d like to be considered.

[??????????]

I have been a member for quite some time now Dave. I think I know the feel for how things work. I would gladly take this job sir. I believe I could do my best and I could do my best. (Sorry bad John quote) hahaha

[Josh]

I think that MAS117, Akno, and Alcon could all do good jobs, from what I've seen here.  Especially having seen what Akno has done in other places, I think he would be very capable of moderating.

[Akno21]

We need someone who won't crack down too hard. I know I would be as leniant as possible. I feel most of the people listed would be fine, with Alcon as my first other preference because of activity. It doesn't have to be a one-person job, does it?
