Nope, hence the new mods voting (or whatever we're doing here)

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

Hmm... interesting who everybody is voting for....  (is the voting part even being considered though?)

And for those who didn't read my other post, I'll repost:

I'd like to run for mod of Text-based games. I've been on scratch from the beggining, October 3rd 2007 a while after the website came out, and since them, I have been active, almost every day actually, and I feel that I have lots of experience for doing watching the personality of the community, and how to keep it safe.

Though my years in the forums, I've learned from moderators how to be kind, what language is ok and what not, and I've learned how to handle problems in a kind way with this community, so I feel I'd make a good canditdate. I've worked on many different collaborations, I'm a good person with good grammer to solve problems with out people confused with what I'm saying, so I feel I'd be a great help to keep the text-based games problem-free.

Vouch Lucario621, for mod of Text-Based Games

Just a few questions I'd like answered:

1. Approximately how many moderators are you planning to elect? (I'd hope two, three, or four)
2. Will you be able to use your Scratch user for the new website? (I am very sure that it's a yes, judging from what everyone says. But it's nice to know officially)
3. Will you be moving in all of the old games? (It's common sense, but then again, I'd like to know officially)
4. Will the old Text-Based Games posts be removed from the post counts? (I'm fine either way)
5. Will the posts in the new website change your post count in the Scratch Forums? (I'm fine either way in this also)
6. Will the posts in the Scratch Forums change your post count in the new website? (Yes, I'm fine either way)

Yes, the website might not be created. But if it does, I'd like to know these things.

1. Not sure yet, maybe 2 or 3.
2. Yes
3. No
4. No
5. No
6. No

He meant it to say that!


BTW,  I think this is just going to come out as a popularity contest.  I know many people who would be good mods, but everyone votes for the "famous" people.  Also, everyone might just go with the popular choice to fit in.  Has anyone considered those things?

I'm not really famous here, and Cheddargirl AND MyRedNeptune have both vouched for me, along with some other people.  big_smile

Oh my God, just because Dream Caster is "popular", it doesn't mean he is going to win because of that.  He is going win because his loyal friends are supporting him the whole time and because he has changed scratch for the better many times.
