thegoldeneagle 9 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 This guy has never got in fight with anyone, is nice, intelligent, responsible and wears one hell of a yellow hat. Seeing as he is someone who will actually moderate the forums and not allow me, Adolf, and VPFritzMondale make stupid posts on the forums and seeing that Ben is always been a good debater, smart person, and excellent role model, I see no reason as to why he shouldn't be moderator. He will moderate, he will allow for fun but reject pointless insults. I know I'm not his campaign manager; I'm just an advocate who wanted his voice heard. One man, one position, one vote. . .You decide. (P.S. Who really wants a penguin as moderator? They're like the 7th ranked species on a scale of coolness.) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the Hamburgler 94 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 One man, one position, one vote. . .You decide. what, a return to pre-suffrage days? I say we let the womenfolk (and everyone in between) vote as well. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegoldeneagle 9 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 what, a return to pre-suffrage days? I say we let the womenfolk (and everyone in between) vote as well. 'One man' as in Brik/Ben is the one man best for the position. Not 'one man' as is in only a man can be moderator since 'womanfolk' aren't capable of being moderator or 'one man' as in women aren't worthy of such a awesome grant of the right to be eligible to vote in this crucial Cross-X.com moderator election. Also, in response to your term 'pre-suffrage,' I'd like to point out that your implying that we're returning to a time in which no one can vote. Suffrage is not a word limited to the people you call 'womenfolk' but a general, sex-less privilege given to nearly all people in our country. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the Hamburgler 94 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 given that no activity that a mod takes (as a mod) is referred to as voting, my guess was that the voting part referred to the voting system for the mod position. and one can use suffrage in a historical sense as well as a definitional one. and its funny that you think i'm taking the election so seriously after such a frivolous comment 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lynn C. Thompson 1904 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 I am pretty sure he wasn't trying to discredit his debate experience because post count =/= debate success. Also, thegoldeneage, what posts have I left of yours/Adolf's/VP_Fritz's that you found warranting deletion? If I miss some, you can just PM myself or Red And Black and we will see what we can do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who said this is what he was trying to do? However, Wilcox was trying to discredit m holkesviks experience with Brik and how he percieves Brik. Regardless or what Wilcox's true intent was he implied that you have to post alot on cross-x.com in order to support someone and tell others about whoever it is your backing. Brik simply responded by saying that although he hasn't posted much they know each other well. Why are you defending Wilcox? His comment sucked worse than playing marco polo with helen keller. And you might be my mod?...shit 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if Wilcox implied that you have to post a lot on cross-x.com in order to support someone, that still doesn't mean that Wilcox meant post count=debate success, which is what Brik seemed to interpret to be. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know that post count doesn't equal success, but no one is trying to say Wilcox was or wasn't saying that except you. That wasn't really the point of my post. Actually, I really don't mind you being my moderator. Disregard the last line. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
