Totally time to change the forum name though. Multiple words and syllables is so 00's. Let's go for something simple and onomatopoetic.

No sirree. Part of your job description is to be hated and loathed by the entire forum for having to enforce rules that people don't think should apply to them.
I apologize for congratulating you. That was improper. I should've sent my condolences.

So you can post your usual nonsense ideas and then claim that nobody can debate them.
Sounds like something you would try.

This feels like the time I voted for a Govt candidate and regretted it when he wen ahead to try and enforce his totalitarian ideology. 
I found myself thinking, perhaps it was better to vote for the religious war veteran after all!?

Well, for me the rational thing is to abstain for political involvement altogether.
I mean since the system is corrupt from top down.

Sounds like a very rational idea. Any 'vote' is just endorsing the current system, so I agree on that level. But sometimes I have voted on who I think would be least likely to trample over too many of my rights.
Nowadays there is no lesser of two evils so to vote is pretty much pointless.

Since it's America I expect half of you to ignore the thread. Additionally I expect nearly everyone to bitch, gossip or hold ill opinions about the moderators and site managers. I also expect you to say you want freedom from any (moderator) rule, yet require more and more mods and then to turn around and blame everything on them.

Some people, probably not you, see the position as it it were worth something, something of value. They don't realize what a royal pain-in-the-ass it really is. So, in that sense, I felt, as congratulations are usually expected in this situation, I offered mine.
You don't seem to be a long-timer. That's why I asked. The longevity of any one particular mod has a lot to do with their expectations, and their personal life offline. If you don't have a life outside the Interwebz, and the experience meets your expectations, and you like positions of power, you can maintain the position indefinitely.
One thing is certain, you won't be able to fix the forum. The tools are not at your disposal.
Don't feel bad though. If it could be fixed, it would have already been so.

Lakefingers. While you may not be able to "fix" this forum you can improve it. You and the Dip could make a powerful impact if you both participate regularly.

Provided one is the yin and the other a yang. If they are both Yangees, then we could all be in trouble.

It seems I'm the moderator, while Diploid has become the moderator hole, so everything's all yin and yang as it should be. Perhaps the reference was too vague.
