Why Aren't You Going To Vote For Dagger?

[Coco]

I remained unaffiliated through the election but was always very vocal of those who I thought were the absolute best choices, and never paid attention to who was in what party, except for Coco because his affiliation was hard to ignore.

Yeah, you just try and ignore me.

 

[Coco]

The real burn to this. It's a popularity contest. And the unpopular guy seems poised to win. Instead of saying why he shouldn't win, which you already did and it did not stop me and Habs from getting curb-stomped (one goddamned bit) you might wanna start helping instead of trying to find a way out of the corner you're seemingly caught on.

I tried helping. I've already extended him early congratulations.

I'm not voting for him because he has trouble controlling his puppies. If you can't control two dogs, how can you control a forum?

 

[The Brain]

I need some time before I vote on this poll. I think I'll wait until the last day the poll is open before voting. Thanks for giving me time to think about it JGlass.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

I still remember him trying to debate with me that HHH and HBK were a better tag team than the Outlaws.

 

[Hulk Hogan's Brother]

If you do not make personal attacks towards Dagger, he would never never get mad at you. Which is more that can be said about Coco or Crock.

Being a nice guy helps sometimes, ya know.

I am running for a Wrestling section mod spot. While it may come as a shock to some that I didn't pick the Video Games section, that section still comes into play within my vision, I will get back to that in a moment.

The vast majority of my posts have come from the WWE section and I am in there on a daily basis. Since I am already in there daily as it is, I would be an asset to the section as a mod by forming a team with Jack-Hammer to tackle the task of generating discussion. It would make his workload lighter, especially during the busiest time of the wrestling year, Wrestlemania season. I would also be available to assist Nick and Nate as needed with maintaining the section.

Yes, a team is already in place with Jack-Hammer starting threads while Nick and Nate maintain, but something is missing. Somebody needs to be actively involved with the posters by debating with them and helping guide the discussion so that it stays on topic. That is where I come in. It is no secret that I love to post and generate discussion whether it be by debating or starting threads. Plus, with the addition of a 4th member to the WWE stable in myself that could open up the opportunity for me to take over the tasks of anyone currently a mod in there who might wish to change sections in the future.

Everyone knows I spend time on our forum each day. I would therefore be available to moderate every single day. I would also be readily available to provide answers or advice to any poster who needs it both in the "ask a staff member" thread and in PM's. My section would take priority over things like posting or repping, which brings me to my next point.

The non-wrestling non-spam sections are currently the weakest link of the forum, with a grand total of 3 sections that are without a mod. I have kept the video games section alive during its time without a mod on multiple occassions. I promised to keep it active until it receives the attention it deserves. Dave, Doc, and Lee all stepped down. Most of the current staff members do not ever post in there. Since I, on the other hand, DO post there frequently, I would be more than willing to look after it as best I can alongside my mod duties. I plan to keep an eye on it and still post new threads there alongside my mod duties. Lee did that when he was G-Mod and I plan to do the same as WWE mod. If I had further time on my hands I would help out in the Movies & TV section too. The staff is a team and if I get elected to join the team then I will volunteer to help out where needed. I can even check the forum during my breaks at work to do a little extra modding.

Basically, in non-word fort form, I am running for WWE mod and will be available to not only help posters who need it but also volunteer my services to other sections such as Video Games, Movies, or wherever I might be needed on that particular day.

Can this post be added to the poll?

I want to change my answer.

I mean, no disrespect, but I've seen how Dagger VG threads go. Generating discussion it is not. Still, I think I might refrain from voting in this poll on the grounds that it is not public. No poll on WZ should be private.

 

[Serious Mozzarella]

Not taking things too seriously, being open minded, and understanding the rules are the only thing you really need to be a mod. At least, a clean-up mod.

Dagger is exactly 0 of those things.

 

[justinsayne]

Since when do you need to be a mod to "generate discussion"? Mods responsibilities should consist of enforcing the rules (which according to JGlass he doesn't even understand), & keep their section clean of spam.

Also when was the last time Dagger generated an discussion? The only thing Dagger generates are bitch-fests & disappointment.

 

[Coco]

I dunno. He's pretty good at getting people to line up when he's giving rep away.

By the way, Coco, your plan was quite well executed.

 

[Bernkastel]

The debates are a great read, now I just have to wait for Crock. I have an idea of whom I'm going to go for now.

 

[The Champ]

Because he's not Coco. Fuck the other reasons.

 

[hatehabsforever]

Glad to see I wasn't the only one who noticed that.

 

[D-Man]

I wonder if Dagger now knows what his nuts taste like (through regurgitation) as a result of JGlass kicking him between the legs with anvil-like combat boots.

[shattered dreams]

This is an amusing one sided account. Dagger has tried hard to be a mod before so that makes him a bad candidate compared to Crock? The guy who constantly campaigns to be mod in an even more stupid place. Dagger supposedly doesn't get the rules so that makes him a bad candidate compared to Coco? The guy who has been infracted for abusing the report button among numerous other things. Lee was such a good mod that he got mad and fixed a tournament to his personal preferences and then quit. Of course we should take failed mod Doc's opinion seriously. He clearly knew the right mindset the job required. The irony is delicious when Jglass says all Dagger does is make word forts that boil down to "I don't like it." Isnt that what he just did to Dagger?

I say vote Dagger and Coco in and vote Jglass out. Jglass is getting a massively inflated ego from his indentured service, which was amusing at first because of the sheer ridiculousness of it, but now it is just annoying and it is about time he was put in his place.

Everyone noticed that. Not that Coco's desperation was ever in doubt.

I finally get why SD annoys people so much. Because he points out the uncomfortable truth pretty well.

 

[The Doctor]

Of course we should take failed mod Doc's opinion seriously.

I served as a mod for over a year, and was even WWE mod for several months. I was on staff longer than many.

I chose to step down due to there not being a need for a Graphics mod any longer, and because of my job and school. It was a mutually respectful parting and I would likely be welcomed back with open arms should the need and desire arise.

I know you're probably trying to rile me up or something, but I was anything but a "failed" mod.

 

[shattered dreams]

You were a failed mod in the wrestling sections. I'm not trying to rile you up, just point out the facts. There was nothing wrong with your work in the graphics section but are we really suggesting that means much? You celebrated the glory of the wrestling sections even though you didn't like the section anymore and I called you out on that at the time. Shortly after you quit because I was right. There isn't anything wrong with it but you thought you could do it and you weren't cut out for it. You could just as easily be wrong here again about what it takes.

 

[Coco]

Dagger supposedly doesn't get the rules so that makes him a bad candidate compared to Coco? The guy who has been infracted for abusing the report button among numerous other things.

I understood that I was being a nuisance. You think I ever go for the report button unless I'm being needlessly vindictive? Not only did Dagger not understand what he was doing wrong with the report button, but his intentions were far less pure than mine.

Lee was such a good mod that he got mad and fixed a tournament to his personal preferences and then quit.

He's endorsed Crock, right?

Yeah, fuck that guy.

Of course we should take failed mod Doc's opinion seriously. He clearly knew the right mindset the job required.

Doc's grown up to the point where when he sees the worst parts his eighteen year old self in a Dagger who's now twenty five, I'm willing to listen. His stay on the mod team might not have inspired confidence in you (and I'm willing to give Doc's counter-argument about not getting a chance anywhere else a lot of time), but Doc's become one of the most level-headed guys on here and someone whose opinion I'm always willing to take into account. If every overeager go-getter with no self-awareness we had could become half the guy Doc is today, the forum would be a better place.

The irony is delicious when Jglass says all Dagger does is make word forts that boil down to "I don't like it." Isnt that what he just did to Dagger?

I think the difference is substantiating evidence. Point JGlass.

 

[Coco]

Oh, and just in case anyone was wondering, I'm not voting for Dagger because Rattlesnake has no self-awareness.
