Please shower again.

I support both Devo and Pang as mods. I guess I'm a dick, though.

WTF

I don't even own a current-gen console.

Thanks for the props though

Fuck if I know why, though. Your reasoning is pretty much foolproof, but staff does not agree. ;_;

The idea is, if the person is willing to mod one place but isn't good enough to mod everywhere else, then what right do they have to be a mod to begin with? It's not fair to the folks who are good enough to mod everywhere.

Also, since staff has to answer for this person's actions (I guess mods don't like pointing fingers at each other publically or demodding folks that don't work out) they want someone they can trust to be competent, which usually means being good enough to mod any forum.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

although I am also interested in the idea of dedicated forum mods, I'd be a lot more comfortable with there being a small group at first, instead of just one. Look, I bet out of the current staff, only three would be willing to bump themselves back down to normal mod. And if we only add one mod who will stay just a mod, they might understand at first that that's the arrangement, but as time goes on and new super mods need to be added, they will get antsy that they are not getting promoted. why lie? people do like fairness.

although the idea of regular or 'temp' mods is interesting, personally I can't see staff overlooking the 'needs to be a good overall mod' requirement.

also, I want pang back as staff. right now.
