It's very difficult to say who or who wasn't a good mod at ZFGC-X. It's not like you had to deal with a lot of problems.

You and Fox were good mods, you just weren't super active. :P
Hah! I was the most active mod of the entire board. Im sure of that. Drewdelz was away for some time, Fox also has slower internet so hes not on that often, Alex joined in the last few days, and Lunar...well. I guess Lunar was the one most active after me.

This whole topic is kind of filled with useless stuff. The admins should just pick some of the older members, who are mature, never had problems, don't have an attitude, have some respect, and know what they are doing, and not people who just want recognition.

Why dose everybody want to be a mod so bad. like 90% of the people who posted here that wanted it, only care about the respect they might get, or seniority, or "special" privlages over other people. I want to see mature members get it. Who don't care about the title.

Some people I would have in mind...

Hero of fire.
2awesome4apossum.
Neo.
Dayjo.
Alex.
Gilgamesh.

I feel like I am forgettign somebody important right now. But six mods is a lot never the less. Not all of these people are closs to me, a couple I don't even associate with. So I'm not suggesting my "friends" or who I htink is cool.
Theese people are all mature enough to handle it. They are old enough, and they have experiance. They illustrate the type of person I was talking about above. The type that isn't just out to get a title as staff and be recognized.

We don't need "no-!@#$%" stuck up 13-14 year old mods either. Who edit peoples posts and banter on about how "if I ever see this crap again your done". No offense to you lunar. But I think that whole thing is a power trip. Self proclaiming yourself as the king of zfgc (in the past) and going around tearing apart peoples posts in front of everybody else. editing it or deleteing it and then pming them works just fine. So it takes a few extra minutes. That is part of the job. On another note. Being a mod is not a popularity vote. Winning a poll where the community choses their favorite dose not automaticly make somebody grade A mod material.

Personaly, I would prefere it to be invisible mods like on GA. But never the less. This is my opinion. I know some mods were already chosen, or maybe all have been chosen. I just wanted to throw this out there.

Haha. It actually took longer then I thought it would for somebody to point that out. I didnt relise tell after I wrote it though.

Anyways. You are another one that should be on that list too... I respect you and think you also would be a good candidate. Not that it really matters though, since you already are :P Again.. Not that I really know you terribly well. I havent socialized with people privately that much since early IF days. But I know your a good person for the job.

And just for the record. Its not like I got anything against you at all lunar. Sometimes I think you are a prety cool guy. But I have opinions, and I don't really have a problem with saying them. Maybe you might take offense to some of my "accusations" but I'm just telling it like it is. At least through my eyes.

Thanks. It might sound modest. But its not at all. I would make a horible mod. I'm no where even close to being active enough. I only really ever check a few topics in community speak, and graphics sections, and post now and then. Mods have to be on this forum like flies on !@#$%, and constantly monitering all topics, and all forums at all times. You have to be commited to the job, and be willing to give up free time to make sure you check up on the place, and make sure you make free timee to make it to staff meetings. I havent been extremly active for at least a year, maybe a year and a half.

I could think of 30 people off the top of my head easily who are better for the job. But then the list could go on and on filled with just people who are active and continuasly check all forums. But with all of that aside. Would I want to be? No, its just another responsability I have to live up to and I already got to much crap to deal with in real life right now to be that much time on a zelda forum moderating peoples posts. Its really not as great as people make it out to be. Once you have it, you relise it isnt so special.

Youve probably never seen the ugly side of me either though. Sometimes I'm a complete A**hole. Namely when it comes to people like lunar, scooternew, regulas, etc. Sometimes when things people do !@#$% me off. I cant help but "bash" them. Even though I preach about what mods should be like, and how they should PM people. That is just another reason why it owuld never work.

Yeah I guess you're right about activity.  We DO have a really active mod NOW though, Bran is pretty active! n__n (Though I think I still have the most posts on the forum :D)

He's right on many levels. Being a mod isn't so great, it's just another responsibilty in the pot of life... you'll realize soon enough that it actually does have a little bit of the stressy feeling former moderators talked about... and I have to make sure to not turn into a "holier-than-thou" type of mod. Like those people that let their "power" get to their heads. <_<

And also, although it's not so much of an issue, never ask to be a mod. Alex and I never did....

If you want to be a mod than stop asking and start acting like you'd make a good mod. -_-

Lunar's Awesome, don't diss the Lunar.
And if you'll stop spamming when you become a mod, why not just not spam!
Hey, wonder where I thought of that!  It's such a GENIUS idea!

Regulus, no one cares how you act on other forums, it's how you act on this forum that matters, and the way you act here is obviously not what Drewdelz is looking for.

And both of you, stop arguing :/
