"The people want Tora"

"I think you'd be an excellent choice toratoratora"

"I would, despite disagreeing with you on about 95% of everything."

"I shall be your most loyal and fervent supporter, my liege! "

So how about it ED?

Why not? I would back the move too. At least he isn't a contrarian just for the sake, and is at least consistent and open with his opinion instead of being spiteful and underhand like at least 2 of the known moderators. He does more to increase site traffic than the secret squirrels and is certainly less of a drag on the site popularity than the returning banned posters, who may change names but have not changed their unpleasant, rude, and deliberately antagonistic manner.  👍

You don't know who the 'secret squirrels' so you really can't comment on their threads and posts

Untitled 17.06 .Wow that was good reading .thanks.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Togo]

I would also add that he is not apt to be cantish either.

A timely typo?

[Untitled]

your appointment happened in public naomi lol. you can't blame tora for trying what worked for you!

[jourdain2]

I haven't had time to read all this post - but T.T.T. called me (totally unwarrantably) a troll. When I explained the error he had fallen into - he continued in his aggressive post. Others had also pointed out his mistake.

I hold no grievance regarding that - but it does suggest strongly that he is impulsive and therefore not suited to the position of Moderator.

[Togo]

Take the typo and make it your very own Douglas. 🤣

Untitled,  My invitation isn't unique.  Wind your neck in.

Well. 😅

What an interesting thread to catch up on. 

At this stage, we're not currently looking for additional Mods but the views and interest expressed in this question have been taken on board. 

I appreciate that may be disappointing.. but thank you for the keen interest.

I appreciate Spare Ed and I have been somewhat quiet lately. We will share updates when appropriate to do so. 

For now, though, let's draw a close on this unexpected election campaign. After all, there's enough politics outside of The AnswerBank!

Ah the one word answer just to be a smart April. I accept jourdain is not generally a Troll but that is one example where she just went out of her way to give a troll like response.

 

[ToraToraTora]

20:06 was to 19:54

[ToraToraTora]

20:05 ok Ed noted.

Get out of jail card arrives timeously.

It was a good while ago, TTT.  I got tired of checking back to find the exact date.  Last year.

You had posted about memorable adverts. and  were there any modern ones we liked - or something like that -  and I replied 'No'.  You then went well over the top about 'death by 1 word answers' or something like that.  I explained that I could not see anything in your post to demand an extended answer - you continued to call me a 'troll' despite my having explained. 

Both naomi and Atheist defended me - to no avail.  

It does question  the consistency of your judgements regarding becoming a moderator and that is the subject of your post.

 

[ToraToraTora]

jourdain, bednobs posted it above, I responded at 20:06.

[jourdain2]

Ah, I'll find it. Ta.

[jourdain2]

Thank you bedknobs.

So, you are still in the wrong,TTT.  You asked a question requiring a yes/no answer - and I answered appropriately.  You gave no clue in your question that an extension was required.

Q.E.D.  :)
