| Byball has a point. I have been here longer than a lot of people. I have plenty of moderator experience, and just because I got demoted and just because people like to say that I was a bad moderator doesn't necessarily mean that I would make a bad admin. Camel himself said that he would like to see me as an admin someday, and in the previous election(s), he voted for me because he knew that I would make a great leader. | |

| Eek, Hutch, I fulfill all the requirements :o
However, I already have access to the Admin Panel here, but I see my role mainly as a Consultant in that regard. EuroSpore and The Sporum also take up my time, so not sure a more hands-on role here will fit into my plans very well.
Good luck to whomever becomes the new Admin (in name and deed) | |

Actually, yes it does. It's critical that you're a good mod to be a good admin, I said former moderators could join the election, but in the end. It's up to me who gets the job. Sure, cam said that he'd like to see you as an admin. But sadly, he isn't in charge anymore. I still do encourage you try, but don't get your heart set at winning. | |

| Well, I DO fit the requirements, but I don't think I can last a single round against Gelo, 3D, and possibly Glass. But, If anyone has any thoughts to nominate me, I'll run and accept the responsibilities of being a possible member of the Big 3. I realize being a leader means much more than having a red name and prestigious title. It means huge decisions which will affect the whole group, moderating, discipline when needed, maintaining the like-ship of the community towards you, and the maturity and will to act on your own jurisdiction. As a leader, I hope to improve the GAC, manage it, and pull it through any and all hardships along the way. So, if someone chooses to nominate me:
/==========\ |Vote Terwynd| \**************/ That actually took me awhile to make. | |

| Ter, you have to have prior moderator experience. I don't think you've ever been a mod on this forum. Or were you a mod on a different forum, perhaps? | |

| Well, I'm quite touched by what a bunch of you have said to me through this election thread, and the Chatbox, and I figured I might as well try a shot at becoming an admin in this election. So, I'm going to give a touching spiel about what I would attempt to do. Without further ado, I'll start.
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to Justice everywhere." - Martin Luther King Jr. said these words many years ago, but they ring as true today as they did in his time. Martin Luther King Jr. stood for justice, equality, and impartial selection. He believed that all men, not just white men, were created equal.
Much like "The King" so to speak (Not Elvis), I believe that all users are created equal, but also believe that as all are created equal one should not be exceptionally dumber or ruder than the other. I think that quick, decisive action is appropriate, and that an iron fist is necessary when it comes to injustice.
However, I'm not always a nitpicker, and can sympathize to an extent with a problem with another user, or something taken wrong. I'm always willing to argue for what I've done, and argue against those who are in the wrong, unless it's 3 in the morning, in which case I will argue later.
I'm not too strict, but I don't let people get away. Several of you might point out my earlier days, but I've become a bit stricter. Don't worry about it too much though, I won't ban you for making a lame joke. But if you break the other rules, I will follow the proper procedure.

| Your speech breaks my heart, Blender. And nice use of bold words. As a fellow candidate, I wish you luck in the election. Though you probably won't need it... | |
