It tickles me that this party is hated so much because it is immensely popular. Then again, that's the name of the game. It just smacks of jealousy to me.

What tickles me is that everyone thinks this party is so hated. It really isn't, it's just that those who are not associated with the party don't approve of their anointed choice of a candidate. I don't hate anyone in their party, I just think we offer several alternatives for mod who are better and more deserving. It's not jealousy, it's opinion, like with any election.

And "immensely popular" may be exaggerated just a tad, just sayin'.

 

[Daniel]

Dave is indeed correct.

To quote Yul Brenner in Cool Runnings, "We're different. People are always afraid of what's different".

 

[Remy LaCroix]

People hate this party? I thought just Coco.

 

[Coco]

More deserving of being a mod on what basis? Can't wait to hear this.

 

[Bernkastel]

Coco and I may disagree on things from time to time, but his mission makes sense. There should not be any real reason for the party to be hated.

 

[The Dragon Saga]

Coco and I may disagree on things from time to time, but his mission makes sense. There should not be any real reason for the party to be hated.

Just to reiterate, the members of the party are in no way "hated." I enjoy the postings of several DFP members, however the choice of candidate sucks and therefore we simply take issue with that.

If IHWrestling gets the mod position of any section ahead of Coco, It'll be a victory not just for the forums but for Mankind -- Mick Foley would be extraordinarily pleased.

What exactly is his mission?

 

[George Steele's Barber]

What exactly is his mission?

Freedom to recognize that more than just one person has a beard around here.

 

[The Bearded One]

Freedom to recognize that more than just one person has a beard around here.

I'm pretty certain everyone here knows that Theo has a vastly superior beard compared to mine. It's just that he has other things going for him when a beard is all I have to live for.

 

[Tymedragon]

Since I've only ever posted in the SPAM forum

You have my axe, good sir.

 

[The_Misson]

What exactly is his mission?

Me.

 

[The Champ]

This is becoming like a high school party.

Vote David French if you support an active social life.

(Posts - Unnecessary clutter = Spam = More time to party)

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

Can you me a favor there Mr Coco, can you just announce that The David French party has officially taken over whatever my party was?

 

[Dave]

Yeah, I'd very much like to hear these people who are "more deserving" of a mod spot and on what basis.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Let me just explain something - being a mod is not difficult. Being a moderator is not a hugely specialised job that requires a specific skill set. This isn't an election to name a new forum neurosurgeon or rocket engineer. If I had to conduct an interview with a prospective moderator, I'd have two questions:

1. Are you at least semi-literate?
2. Do you understand how to turn on a computer?

I'd hazard that all and any candidates are entirely qualified for the position of moderator on that basis - unless we have some monkeys-chained-to-a-typewriter quantum events occurring. Driving discussion? No. Just no. As Luther used to say, anyone can do that, moderator or not; that doesn't require additional account permissions. In fact, I'd rather prospective candidates promise not to drive discussion, because it'll usually just lead to them spunking a bunch of obnoxious uniform threads out. As far as I can tell, the key to a long, successful career as moderator is to just merge enough threads and infract enough posters a week so as to look busy.

Coco The Monkey is the best poster of any of the candidates. Coco The Monkey has the best - and most realistic - mission statement out of any of the candidates. Coco The Monkey is the poster I like most out of any of the candidates.

 

[¡Roján!]

Sam, accept me on xbox live, you cretin.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I currently have four essays to write in the next sixteen days. I'll add you when I next dust my Xbox off.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Great White Sam again.

I want to see discussions in forums, and people's posts not deleted because it might veer off topic a touch. Discussions are fun and can help keep interest in a boring forum.

I want to see discussions happen based on an idea. Just because there is already a "ALL JOHN CENA DISCUSSIONS HERE" thread, I dont want to see my thread get buried because I mention John Cena in it, when the entire thing has nothing to do about John Cena, it just involves him.

I want to see punishment for posters who have this "holier than thou" mentality on here and constantly flame users for their OPINIONS. Calling someone dumb or stupid or just basically trashing them isn't necessary.

I want to see people like Slyfox and D-Man out of position because they feel that they can run these forums to their own discretion and power.

I have stayed away from these boards because of these points. It has gotten to a point where I dont want to come on here because all the fun has gone away. These boards were made to have DISCUSSIONS. Yes, having 20 posts about John Cena is annoying, but if it doesn't really pertain to him then it shouldn't get merged into 1 grouping.

If you can promise me all of these things then you have my vote...but I plan to hear EVERYONE out.

 

[The Champ]

I think you might want to try another forum's election if you think there's a chance of Slyfox being ousted.

You're not being realistic.

It would be hilarious if someone ran on the position of ousting Sly and KB, won the election, and then just got vetoed by Sly and KB.
