Any questions you guys have for me feel free to ask them here. I will answer them honestly and to the best of my ability

What I offer as a candidate.

Out of all the Candidates I have been here the longest. I have survived the Jake/Jonny regime, Enjoyed the IC/Shocky Regime and am liking the KB/Sly regime. I've been here through countless rule changes and updates and can/will enforce them.


I will drive discussion throughout the board not just whatever section I decide to mod (if elected). To further this end if it is needed I will clean up my section & Keep it clean and reward (rep) those people that do a good job.


I'll update this at a later time

S'all good man.

I also have another point.


I can do a good job. I am nice to everyone (Well mostly) if made mod this will extend to my rule enforcing. I know some mods aren't very nice about it which is there business but that's not how I am. I will be respectful and as nice as possible

OK look, I know I'm not the most well liked person here, I've stepped on a few toes and some people straight up just don't like me. Through all the bullshit thrown at me by various people I've come through a better person.

If you were here when I started and compared me then to me now I have gotten a lot better no matter what people say. I bitch a lot less then I used to and I can take the shit people throw at me (with only blowing up once every few months because lets face it I'm not a saint). i think this would translate well into being a mod because I know they get a lot of shit from stupid people for no reason.

Basically I'm just asking for a chance. i know this is a popularity contest and I'm not exactly Mr. Popular but I think I would make a very good mod if given the chance to be one and this is the best shot I have.


Unless someone wants to debate something specific I've said I really don't know what else I can say

What do you have to say about your former stint in federal internet prison? Why should the good people of WZ elect a hardened crimial such as yourself?

What's there to say? I was in there because KB put me in there. Do I agree with is reason? No but the past is the past so why worry about it. I like to think I'm stronger for the experience

Why should the good people of WZ elect a hardened crimial such as yourself?

Like the good people of WZ I've made mistakes and I will not hide them. I will listen to the people and do my best to give them what they want.

Alright, this is and isn't a shot at you. But if you are picked for being a mod. What threads will you bring to the table. Ie: you have a lot of the same cookie cutter threads in a lot of sections. Your favorite this and that, what do you plan on doing about that? What discussion comes from that? You bring a thread like that and it can't drive discussion, just because it gets 25-30 posts it's not a good discussion topic.

You have to get people debating on the topic, not just ask them for their opinion. That will work for a while, but good topic discussion is key Cory. You have had a few good threads, no doubt. But your bad outweighs your good.

Also a second point is this, we both have a problem. We have improved, but what are you going to do about your grammar and spelling? You have said in the past that it doesn’t matter as long as you can understand it. I say that as a mod your posts should mirror the fact that we are the best wrestling forum on the web. Sure mods do mess up sometimes, but I think you should one over your posts before you post them. Or put larger posts through spell check.

I use open office, but tbh spell check alone won't make all of your problems go away. You have to stop and just read it. I'm sure you are already trying to do that.

I want to mod VG&T so I would post threads on the newest releases as well as future releases. I know people want more Tech threads so I would research the latest technology and post on that as well. I would also reward anyone who makes a good thread in my section with green rep

I use Google Chrome so it has a built in Spell Check. I usually do make sure to glance at my posts before I post them to see if there are any grammar errors

How would you drive discussion about new and future releases? Would you also be willing to hold the Video game tournament.

I didn't know Google Chrome had a built in spell check. I'm still being stubborn and using Ie.

1) If Jake was here today, what would you say to him?

2) Same question, but replace Jake with Reagan.

 

[Harthan]

Point blank, tell me why you'd be a better mod than Crock or myself.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

How would you drive discussion about new and future releases?

Simply put I would keep an eye out for future release and make a thread on them. As for new releases it's pretty much the same although I may review it if I buy & play it.

Would you also be willing to hold the Video game tournament.

Yes I would. I would need help though

I didn't know Google Chrome had a built in spell check. I'm still being stubborn and using Ie.

yup, one of the many reason It's better than Ie

1) If Jake was here today, what would you say to him?

Hey Jake how has life been treating you?

2) Same question, but replace Jake with Reagan.

Unlike Haley Joel Osment I don't see Dead people so I probably wouldn't say much to Reagan

 

[Uncle Phatso]

Point blank, tell me why you'd be a better mod than Crock or myself.

What's the harm in trying to run? He could ask you the same thing. In fact, I'm asking you and Crock right now, what points would make you a better mod than Cory?

I'm not siding with anyone, I'm not even in this party. I enjoy your posting, and think you are a nice guy. Crock is one of my best friends on the forums, and I've known Cory since he started on the forums.

So lets see what you have Harth.

You don't seem like you can handle the tough questions. What are you going to do when KB grills you in the general debates?

 

[Hyorinmaru]

Point blank, tell me why you'd be a better mod than Crock or myself.

You've been a mod so I'm not sure why you're even here. Give it to someone who's never been a mod.


As for Crock he's a hypocrite. I know from personal experience he will tell you one thing in private and just go with the flow in public. This is not what we need in a mod. We need someone who will stick by what he says no matter what

Thanks for the glowing endorsement, bro.

How would you make use of drum rolls if elected?

I wouldn't, I'm trying to not remind people of my past hence the fact I never went back to the name Milenko (Fat lot of good that did me though).

Why should he? If it ain't broke then don't fix it.

 

[shattered dreams]

if i was making it up I would come up with something better than I only had sex 4 times and my Ex laid their like a dead fish. Then there's the fact she refused to take her shirt off and we were covered with a blanket each time.

Why did you post this?

So lets see what you have Harth.

1. I was asked to be a mod twice, and held the positions for a good length of time. I left them for personal reasons that have since been sorted out. I'm still just as good, if not better, than I was when I was asked to be a mod - there's no reason I won't be able to pick up where I left off.
2. Milenko, I'm going to be honest with this post. I don't rag on you around here, and I think you're a good guy - so don't take this the wrong way. We've seen how Milenko operates as a poster around here. He's not, in my opinion, a top caliber poster. I don't think he'll be nearly as effective at driving discussion as myself or Crock would be. I think the best you could expect is a formulaic series that quickly loses its attractiveness (see: Raw MVP).
3. Respect. Milenko doesn't get a lot of respect around here. Undeservedly, perhaps, but so it is, nevertheless. A mod has to command a degree of respect.
4. How will Milenko deal with the inevitable interpersonal conflict that will arise? His track record isn't in his favor. What happens when he posts a thread as VGAT mod that goes the way of Mark Henry for MVP? Maybe if that was the only time something like that had happened, I'd give Milenko the benefit of the doubt and hope he would learn in the future. But it's happened many times - he just doesn't do conflict well.

As I said, Milenko - don't take this the wrong way, because I don't want you to think I don't like you. I just don't think you're the right choice to be a mod.

You've been a mod so I'm not sure why you're even here. Give it to someone who's never been a mod.


As for Crock he's a hypocrite. I know from personal experience he will tell you one thing in private and just go with the flow in public. This is not what we need in a mod. We need someone who will stick by what he says no matter what

I'm here because I was forced to relinquish my position as a moderator to sort out my real life. Now that it is sorted, I want my position back. This is an open route back to that. I don't see why the election should vote in someone who has never been a mod - why pass up experience? Why pass up someone who earned the spot before conventionally?

Hopefully the point wasn't related to you being a good mod or proficient at capitalizing the first letter of sentences.

nope

The point was that If i was going to lie It would be something a lot better than what I said

 

[shattered dreams]

Whatever it is that made you type what you did instead of saying if I was going to lie I would have told a better one is a big reason you still aren't anywhere near reformed enough to get consideration here.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

are you in this party?

Statistically speaking that is unlikely.

Alright, just wondering
