Drama and personal rivalries aside, I think Redstorm would make an awesome mod.

Inflammatory. Not a very good example you're setting right there yourself Cervantes. Why exactly are you in this conversation anyway, you have a grand total of 4 posts in OTD. This is not the first time I've noticed you popping in and taking the side of "the man" in matters that don't concern you. Perhaps you're an admin's puppet.

100 comments by you to one by me and you come here crying about it, sound to me like you have that backwards especialy since I've gone out of my way to avoid any conflict with you, remember the consessions that were made with Ythan to lift your ban? it didnt even take an hour before you were back to trolling me at what point do you stop, when will you grow up and begin to keep your word
1) your constant trolling of me is how this started 2) you broke a truce, maybe u didnt bring up one thing but u still never stop 3) you let all sorts of drama happen in otd but only start banning because you got embarassed and no one likes you anymore 4) You are a classic pussy you can dish out flames all day and cant take anything back, which makes you a huge joke
cevantes: you ask why would any mod in otd be different?? well the other 3 ARE different , they dont get involved in the drama, they arent complete losers who spend their entire life there. pris#! has 50,000 friggin posts and he has been he shorter than most. he basically wakes up and posts for 16hours a day, completely unqualified to be a mod. i, im definently not mod material either... we need someone who is fair to moderate the forum.. someone who isnt an absolute hypocrite

Prisoner #1 is a great moderator for OTD. He's extremely reliable and present most of the time. No moderator is going to be there all the goddamn time, but he's there most of the time and does a really good job of keeping Off Topic Discussion in-line.
I love drama. Off Topic Discussion is full of it. Redstorm can handle drama, I've seen him in action... But the point is, could he regulate the drama in OTD effectively? I believe so.
But, I don't think OTD needs any more mods at this time, even if some of the current mods don't post. The job is still getting done, no matter which one of them is doing it.

Plenty of people like Prisoner #1, and some much more than they do you.
? Mods and Admins have the final say! -- Actions by staff members are not personal, and are usually taken as a last resort.
Drama can happen. Actions are taken as a last resort.

Either a Mod does their job, or they hide from it. Pris1 does his job.
Why do I have an opinion on this matter?
Because I've had to watch all the behind the scenes bullshit that you have created KOTK.
Do I know you...? Yes and no. I don't know you, BUT I am very familiar with the trouble you've had a hand in.
I'd rather have a Mod that posts in OTD, than one that doesn't read it at all.
If everybody in OTD obeyed the rules, there wouldn't be a need for Mods, as it stands, OTD causes MOST of the Drama here. OTD needs FULL TIME Moderation. Pris does MORE than his share of the work.
If you and others, would like me to be less inflammatory, well... KOTK, I'd like to see you keep your word .
I try to treat hypocritical people, who try to throw the Mods who RIGHTFULLY banned them, under the bus... with the respect they deserve. KOTK, you don't deserve much respect for your actions.
I mean look at this thread, some are complaining that the OTD mods post too little and you are saying they post too much. Why is that, if it isn't because Pris banned you?
How would Redstorm fit into that Mix? I'm sure when OTD needs a new Mod, he will be considered... but he will have to do his JOB if he IS Modded. That job includes LOCKING threads, and Banning hypocritical members who insight Drama by breaking the rules of the TOS and invading a Moderator's privacy. ANY OTD Mod gets torn down by the VERY people who appoint him... as SOON as that Mod starts doing their Job.

KoTT, we had both joked around a great deal with each other, I said something that stepped over the line and I appologuised for that, see #2
Quote:
2) you broke a truce, maybe u didnt bring up one thing but u still never stop
can you provide a link to where that truce was broken, you've made the claim several times but as of yet have been unwilling to provide it, where as with yourself I can show hundreds of posts in which you are doing excactly as you claim I have been, just as a few others have. see #3
Quote:
3) you let all sorts of drama happen in otd but only start banning because you got embarassed and no one likes you anymore
I banned you because you posted a picture of me which you recieved via IM, you have admitted this yourself on one thread and then started denying it claiming that it was posted in OTD and that you'd gotten it in the gathering forum, you you and several others were warned by both papaver and Anno for the exact same offense, posting peoples pics without their permission
the way I see that, it makes you a hazzard to the community as a whole because at the moment your 'like' for them changes they are at risk, which brings me to the statement of 'no one liking me', who cares, there has always been some one in this world that hasnt liked me, you percieve this as a personal vendetta and you are projecting it on to me, your posting reflects differently
Quote:
4) You are a classic pussy you can dish out flames all day and cant take anything back, which makes you a huge joke
again, KoTT, I challenged you to show where I went back on my word causing you to risk the safety and well being of my family by posting that picture and I also challenge you to show these flames that prove all I do is troll you or that I dish out the flames. It appears to many people that you are the one with the 'personal' vendetta and you have made it personal to me with a single act.
Quote:
cevantes: you ask why would any mod in otd be different?? well the other 3 ARE different , they dont get involved in the drama
KoTT, you are the drama I'm involved in, you drop it in my lap each day that you post in OTD, I have ignored it many times and at some point I do have to put my foot down.

it's not about popularity, I can sit on my haunches and allow a few users to run off the majority of good posters through constant flaming and harrassment or I can do the job thats requested of me and say to hell with being popular, the simple fact of the matter is that where others realize that there is a time to back off and let it drop, KoTT does not, he's like a dog with a bone.
and as of yet, I've not even voted.

Sorry, I guess I didn't understand what you were saying. I agree with you entirely.
It is a moderator's job to take care of drama. What is not, though, is to cause or be part of the drama.

I see you doing your job, and though i missed what this whole pris vs kott thing is all about, it seems rather petty to be continued In the website's suggestions forum. I agree the best mods would be people who use the forum in question, and there's two who seemingly never do in OTD.
Redstorm has been effectively nominated, and this thread's direction is now non-sensically off topic. I'd lock this now if I were a mod.

Well, yeah and no...
OTD is a SPECIAL Forum, and the Mods DO IGNORE a lot of rule breaking in there.
In order to QUELL DRAMA, a Mod must get his hands dirty from time to time by participating IN the drama.
Sometimes, a Mod must SHOW the community what questionable behavior is ok and what isn't.
Pris always says there is a line in OTD that once crossed, gets people in trouble.
Pris isn't perfect (No Mod or Admin is). BUT for the number of posts he's made, he makes 100's or GREAT posts for every questionable post. KOTK can't say the same thing.
I know of SEVERAL Shroomery Mods who are simply amazed by the job Pris1 is able to accomplish. We'd need 2-3 new Mods to replace the work he does.
OTD is LUCKY to have a guy as chilled out and mature as Pris. Sure, he isn't perfect... but he's MORE THAN good enough for OTD.

I know you feel that way. 
It is the other opinions in this thread (particularly KOTK's) that concern me.
Sorry this happened in your nomination thread.
I can't help it that Pris was trolled all the way into this thread.

the funniest thing is when i put your name in the search, with search terms of things i and everybody else knows you said on a DAILY basis. like 3 results come back, 3! its sickening that you are not even man enough to stand behind words that you posted. now you are lying and doing shadey things to protect your postion as moderator.

Drama is allowed here (to a degree...). Usually, drama does no good, but Forums are a great place for us all to have a place where we learn to deal with the drama we are dealt.
Drama grows on you.
Stick around long enough, and the drama will be what gets you coming back.
So I guess that's what he's here in this thread for.
