Here are my criteria for being a mod:
1. Attend Sasquatch annually. 2. Live in the NorthWest. 3. Not be an asshole (this is subjective, since I'm usually an asshole) 4. Be informative/knowledgeable about the festival, and be willing to share your knowledge. 5. Not go on extended leaves from the board. This means you have to be here everyday, or close to it, and expect to be here everyday for the next couple years. The first three mods left after all, it's not easy babysitting. 6. Be accepting to newbs. 7. Don't get drunk and tell people to round up yer nines. 8. Be mellow, meaning not taking the knee-jerk-reaction of banning assholes. 9. Be politically correct, but accepting of frat-douches who don't know what PC means. 10. Be organized. 11. Be tall and handsome.
Alright, number 11 was a joke. I like me more than you do.
I planned on making this thread in October later this year, so I could see who is actually sticking around, but with the increased traffic, why not let lurkers chime in? Please keep this positive, recommend someone, or recommend yourself. If you want to talk shit, or belittle a nominee, PM me instead of posting it publicly.

Peatrick. That is all. (I'm really not sure he wants the responsibility, but he seems to fit the criteria pretty well.)

I think Peatrick is a pretty damn good fulfiller of said criteria... Actually living in the northwest rules almost all the 1000 post club out, if I recall correctly...

Actually yeah lumpy doesn't live in the northwest. Why does living in the northwest have to be a criteria?

Peatrick for sure. Friendly D if he lived in the NW.
Actually I8 isn't half bad, half the time that is.

Looks like I'm disqualified by 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, and common sense. Too bad 11 was a joke.
I submit that you withdraw the second requirement and immediately institute Peatrick as a moderator.

I should also say that if you don't want to be a moderator, let everyone know. The criteria I created was more of me rounding up my own nines. 7 out of 10 works just fine. Attending Sasquatch annually and being on the board every day are much more important than living in the NW.

I honestly don't think I would do a good job of policing the threads. I used to frequent death metal forums after all, where NOTHING was off limits and I was forever desensitized.

Truth be told, I think I8 would probably do a good job as well.

I8 it is. Besides, I'm the king of the message board, not a mod. Jesus people...

I think I'd have the opposite of Peatrick's problem. I envision a utopian board in which everyone reads the god damn threads before they post, and everyone respects basic laws of spelling, grammar, and punctuation, except in cases of all-caps hilarity.
Also, I think a healthy portion of the current posters would abandon ship if I ever got a little authority around here.
Thank you, though, I appreciate the sentiment.
