Okay. Forget what I said about internationalization.

That speech is not worthy of an Entmoot President. You'll steal all the dignity of the charge and turn it to a mere syndicalism.

EJECT JONATHAN!

I am sure the admins and mods can run without cheating. But do you mooters really want an admin for President? No matter what the admins say, they are on another level than the normal mooter. Wouldn't you want someone, who does not have the power to close your threads, edit your posts and threaten to ban you, for President?

And what kind of puplic would vote for a candidate on the basis of recieving a large bar of Belgian chocolate? A hungry chocoholic one, I know. Let's pretend that was a rethoric question...

Oh, and are you saying that, as a president-candidate, you can be bought with chocolate? Tssk, tssk.

Yes, I would 'steal the dignity' of the admins, I would reduce their authoritarian power and bring more power to the mooter
You should join me, Fat middle.



Btw, Ruinel isn't running. She might change her mind later though

yea but most mods or admins get these positions because they respect their power. really do you think SGH will ban you for no reeason or edit your posts just cause she hates you. they do it for a reason. and dont we want people who can do this for us so we dont have chaos here


EDIT: sgh beat me to it

But she already has that power - so what are you voting for? I can't see why you would want to vote for an insider. Don't you want someone who represents YOUR interests? Who can go to the admins when there are problems? Who can negotiate with them for all mooters concerned?

I say we vote for a normal mooter - not an admin.

dammit all this admin non admin stuff is confusing. maybe i should just run so i dont have to choose who to vote for all your points are right but SGH has also been a normal mooter before too so i dont think she would forget so easily what it was like

See how she mocks the normal mooters. Do you really want someone who goes "nah nah - nah nah - you don't have the control panel ." for President? Do you really think she will support your ideas?

That's okay buddy. Denial is expected when you are being traumatized by a tyrant. I know your scared of the devil. It's okay.
