Topic: Please vote for me for moderator of this board (Read 3489 times)

You have my vote

I don't know if I support this or not. Maybe I'll throw my hat in the ring.

If I become moderator and leader of the Off Topic board, I will bring peace and prosperity for all trolls.

Haha thank you everyone for your support so far this campaign has been going very well.

I've silently watched this for about a week now and it's getting old, so I'll chime in.

Full disclosure- I'm an intermittently active user who knows Mushbuh in real life.

Uhh... Right. This is a factual statement. Also, adults are consistently beacons of wisdom and mental fortitude.

This raises a number of questions. You're speculating about his motivation, while never backing up your beliefs beyond the claim that you can "feel" his age and degree of competence.



Not only that, but we have no idea why you're so fervently attacking Mush- are you envious of his formidable height?  Also, multiple people have come forward admitting real-life relations, and he has a relatively long history on btctalk and pretty significant web presence- this brings into question your accusation that his identity is uncertain. Further casting doubt on your credibility, we have no idea who you are. You could be Fodor or Terrik.

Are you speaking from experience? Do you realize you're currently responding to a quote about moderator age with an unfounded claim about payment/compensation/benefits/whatever?

Not really interested in reviewing this one, the foul and uncalled-for language speaks for itself.

Nothing personal, but you've essentially written a fable about the big bad mushroom and the sad little satellite. A fable heavily salted with vulgarity and animosity. And what on earth does tangible explanation mean? Do you want Mush to explain his goals and anticipated roles with finger puppets?

If anything you've failed the test as a forum member- his responses have either been suitably lighthearted (banning gifshaming? you think that's for real?) or measured and reasonable (meme spam and repetitive content will take their toll on any forum). It seems that you personally don't care for his responses- which is fine of course, but you could at least go through the effort of articulating them properly, maybe even suggesting an alternate candidate.

Mush has a long history of classic topics, both as OP and subscriber. You might recall the mace peanuts of late 2011, or the custom potato chip business he briefly operated with SaltySpitoon. If you haven't seen them, you most likely haven't actually looked. Call him a stranger all you want, but anyone can click on "Recent posts by this member" or use the search bar. It seems like you expect Mush to include an entire topic in quotes in his resume- hardly a rational expectation.

Well, if you're ceaselessly throwing shade at someone it seems fair that you might explain yourself. Which, in all fairness, you attempt to do, albeit unsuccessfully. You say your negative rating, and some post about French Fries (which you didn't quote or link to here, I'm aghast!) that people took offense to make you a credible critic. Not only that, but you then say the negative rating that you just claimed as a icon of authenticity has nothing to with Mush's campaign, and by extension nothing you've been saying has anything to do with it either. Bizarre approach, that. "I'm of such ill repute that I'm irrefutable to the point of being irrelevant!"

Actually, Mush doesn't care for League of Legends in the slightest, I suspect your vibe sensing is a little off. Also, your repeated vague anecdotes, also apparently based upon your "vibes," do nothing to further your point.

Ugh, those younger kids (<0 years old) and their Twitter. Thank god we have adults writing intelligible, sophisticated prose.

Many people on Twitter do a better job of conveying a message in 140 characters or less than you do with multiple rambling forum posts.

I'm sensing a recurring theme here... Are you a failed writer? Just some bitter egg?

...This was a joke...
...As was the gif itself...

Perhaps you're just inconsistent and incoherent enough for Mush to reply piecemeal. Which is how you think the Chinese communicate? Not sure I understand...

Actually Mush blinks a lot, especially now that allergy season is coming in.

Not sure you know what a cliche is. Or a crow. Or a kid? I'd say the real OnLine cliche is the anon board member trying to flame a better-known user with no real success.

Oh! This is just you throwing a tantrum driven by a bizarre schizotypal inferiority complex.

I admit it, you are a magical super genius who is way smarter and older than me, I submit my will on to you.

also as far as me knowing salty irl, all that means is that he could kick my ass if I did something wrong. He would probably kick my ass either way. I don't really think his opinion of me matters because it should be omitted when considering me for any position, since we know eachother IRL. I just think its funny to threaten his shoes

As much as I would love to argue with a racist scammer I don't want to waste space in this thread, but I appreciate you bumping my thread so often.


Thank you, just showing your support here is more than enough

Where I can vote for you @Mushroomized?. You have my vote.

- Kids know nothing.. FACT.

- Few people know these guys get paid to delete your comments and it shows a possible motivation.
  What other possible motivations could you have?
  we don't know who you are (you could be Fodor or Terrik)
  or a cop or serial coin cloner or simply one of the usual mass shit coin supporters. (most of you are but hide it)

- Want to talk about "most mods" on forums?
  Most do NOT get paid.

- Shoe fetish aside your side stepping the admission you know a previous Altcoin section MOD IRL.
  This reeks of something like nepotism.. having one of Salty's bum buddies made mod too?

- Nothing personal, but i still don't see you providing any tangible explanation for your bid.
  instead you seem to have shown me a negative reaction when users have tested you
  or tried to joke your way out of situation that is over your head you do not understand.

- Building trust like i said?
  You simply hopped over my point and had a jab at me or once again simply don't get it.
  All you did was say you has some "classic topics" here as your resume and that you "modded before"
  My first comment on this topic i said.. i have not seen you comment on this whole entire forum even one time.
  In other words if i spell it out super slowly for you all to understand..
  You seem to be a complete stranger.
  If it was my intention i would have SHOWN activity in this section for a while before spouting off "make me a mod".
  This would have built some trust and a track record.

  I also should not have to explain to people anymore that i have been given bad ratings for dumb reasons.
  I don't need to defend myself because i am not the one asking to be a moderator like you but i will anyway
  I have only ever gotten a neg rating for criticizing a shitcoin basically.
  have you ? I would say my ratings PROVES i have more credibility then cowards that hide & make money off them.
  I for example posted a topic about "Monero French Police Fraud"
  And the two biggest supporters went on accusing me of lying and both guys negged me..
  And they both knew before hand i did nothing but post 2 quotes copied from the mouth of one of their own guys.
  So it was not possible for me to lie about anything.. all i did was copy & paste a quote (that was never refuted)
  Both smooth & smoothie left me the same copied neg rating explanation..
  Later smooth removed his for some reason (no idea why / he did not say why)
  So you could l have asked me why or if active enough should have already known.
  But more importantly my rating here has nothing to do with your being made a moderator does it?
  Once again this sheds more light on you.

  I have plenty of experience on the web and i can get a vibe from people a mile away.. i'm rarely wrong.
  I know your type LOL
  And your type is NOT moderator material.. but often who DOES end up mod (which causes more problems than fixes)

@OP
Just be glad theymos does not ask my permission for things before he runs his web site
Lucky for you i guess i doubt he gives two shits what i think..

And my comments are LONG you say?
Or maybe your YOUNG and are a part of that younger kid generation that has to speak in Twitter format?
No patience to read?
Make him a moderator LOL

Orly?
Actually you WILL tolerate it because those are NOT rules kid.. read them!

You have pretended to not get what i said which is why i made my comments so long.
to explain.. THOROUGHLY
Why? Because i knew you would say that.
I also can point out how you quoted me and replied back to ONLY the key points you chose to refute / understand
the rest was well.. Chinese i guess huh?

See how i have you pegged and predicted what you would say a few times even before you blinked?
I am right.. you are a cliche'd kid cawwing like a crow to be made moderator.. for no good reason.

Why would i want to be moderated by kids half my age?

1 2 3 4s
mush is not a filthy horse
5 6 7 8

9 10 11 12

21 22 23 24

25 26 27 28
actually i'm going to bed, it's getting late
29 30 31 32
remember- mush is a boy for me, and a boy for you

I don't think there is going to be an actual voting thing but just showing your support here means a lot to me

how do we vote for you?

I will be sure to ban theymos

hmm you do know most moderators are in their mid 20's right? Not really sure what age has to do with anything here.
Also I would love to see mpreps shoe collection.

Wow that's horrible, that people are being paid for doing work.

"nothing personal, I hate you" hehe I do appreciate your walls of text though.


hmm..

Jeez you really wanna be Mod pretty bad huh?
I find that sort of odd and disturbing.. usually implies an agenda.

And considering the rules were changed recently (or at least how they are enforced)
You could be walking into trouble.

Besides if i look around i don't see the need for another one.
I also thought it was odd how a couple noob accounts popped up giving you quick
unconditional support / no questions ask.

Why is it always someone younger who i never seen talk even once that wants to be a Mod?
Don't you think building up some trust with users would go along way? (before asking)
Trust that is aside from being a friends of a previous mod's LOL
Hmm maybe i should start trying to be BFF's with mprep?
But wait!
I don't know where mprep keeps his shoes..
i need to found out where he lives so i can pop by his house i suppose eh?

So uhhh how much are these guys making these days ?
I already seen one staff / mod admit they get -PAID- for each mod action basically.

And i still never heard one reason at all why you should be mod anyway.
But i did see some negatives such as what you were quoted saying in the post above mine.

I can tell a mile away you are not the right type of person that SHOULD be a Mod.
You are too young and your explanation for WHY was a pile of bullshit.

And past experience is tough to call.. there is a lot of sites out there to MOD.
But have you moderated on a tough one and how did it go (you did not say)
For example.. during the peak period of Cs.Rin.ru i was a mod there and it had user base that rivals this place.
And how did i do? ..Good!
I never had to ban anyone once.. it's all in how you handle people.
And being a MOD that LOOKS for problems (when none exist)

I am not convinced at all OP sorry nothing personal.
The replies here confronting you showed us all you were not prepared and made no effort here.
There was a variety of things you could have done before posting this topic.. but you didn't.

Have fun going after all those evil gif posters then dealing with the drama of everyone hating you LOL

By the way, read the rules guys.
Identifying Scams is NOT a part of the mod's job description here.

please ban everyone and everything like theymos 

I think my success rate is around 60%? honestly cant remember where to check that. Most of the time I go to report stuff, I'm browsing logged off then when I get around to logging in its already been taken care of

Ive been a moderator on a few places, solidcointalk (lol), a few private servers when i was younger that have died out now. I've helped run a few projects for my art collective as well. Also, I usually help run events I do art for/with. Mostly music composition contests and stuff like that. But most people there are well behaved and I dont do anything other than let people know if there are spambots there, etc.


Just because I happen to ask salty spitoon, my pal, about when he keeps his door locked during the day, and where he keeps his shoes - and then suggest he checks out my thread, does not mean I would ever do anything to his beautiful jordans. I respect the shoe game.

*cough cough cough* as the moderator of that alt coin board of which you are speaking of, Theymos asked me if I wanted to be the moderator (actually I might have asked him at the time) and then a thread asking for people's opinions was created to make sure everyone was alright with me. I just happened to word it like a "vote for me" thread, because I thought it would be funnier that way. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/vote-saltyspitoon-for-alt-currency-moderator-122465

On another side note, this Mushboi has been implying threats toward my shoes should I not give him my vote of confidence. If anything happens to them now that this information is public, we will hold you accountable.

How many posts have you reported and what's your success rate?

Have you had any previous experience with being a forum mod?

What election? This forum is not a democracy, or is it

I'm fine with negative feedback, but this has just been dragging on about something as silly as a gif, cmon buddy. That gif is cool. Maybe we can compromise and put up a gif that you like too.

There's way more scams than that in runescape, armor trimming, tricking people to go out into the wildy and then killing them, the list goes on. Runescape is an exercise in the art of the scam. I brought it up because I legitimately think that there are more scammers in runescape than on this website, which really says a lot.

My comment was an example of something that was rude, not intended to actually try and insult someone. If that was my intent I would have simply just posted only that instead of showing a comparison between the two.

If anyone should be offended it should be the generator site you used to make that gif and it does look like crap.

Anywho, from this thread alone you've shown that you can't handle negative feedback from folks so you most likely wouldn't be able to handle someone telling you to go fuck yourself in threads or pm when you move/delete/lock threads.

Playing Runescape doesn't give you the ability to detect scams. I've played Runescape off and on since 2001 and the only scams you can detect is 'doubling gold!!!' and 'visit this site for free membership!!' which the first is simply taking gold and running while the second is using a fake website to steal login information (phishing).
