TBG Nominees and their reasons:

RE: THIS TOPIC IS NOW CLOSED. (UNOFFICIALLY.)

1, 2, and 4 for sure...But 3 I haven't been on scratch too long but I think I'll be able to do it. No. 5 about bias. whenever I do that, I seem to be able to correct my mistakes and be forgiven for it. Whenever I do, I sooner or later feel bad about it on my own.
Extra points:
Though I may be young, I can go on scratch and probably moderate well. I go on scratch alot.

I spend a lot of time in the TBG, so I'll always be on the lookout, and I'm fair  smile

2. I am ready to have responsibility. im vice president of DG Games lol if that isnt full of pressure then what is haha.
3. I have been on scratch for around a year and a half not as long as you lol.
4. I have a good sense of right and wrong, and strive to be just, i gew up going to a catholic school  smile
5. I can control being bias. this is true because though i always have an opinion i wont let that get in the way of whats fair.

Just some evidence for voters to decide on.

Re: TBG Nominees and their reasons:

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)
I would like to be a mod for the following reasons,

1 I have experience moderating on some forums,
2 I been on scratch for awhile on some other accounts before this one and I flag inappropriate stuff any chance i get,
3 I am on scratch every day.

I have watch scratch grow and I showed my friend Dolfus555 scratch and he created the best project ever on top loved with over one thousand love its.Super mario galaxy,although he has moved on to xbox live XD hahaha. I have made many friends BEFORE they became "famous".I plan to stay on Scratch for awhile and I don't plan on leaving.Text based forums was most likely the best thing that happened to this site (besides the curse filters) and I love role-playing.I been role-playing ever since i signed up on neopets so i would like to encourage the recreation of this forum and might possibly help by being a moderator.

Nice choice, I whole-heartedly agree with your reasons. Even though I am in favor of the closing of Text-based-games I would like to moderate the new website if it ever actually appears  smile  This is for several reasons:
1. I know a lot of people really want this people to stay open and I would love to help them by providing my support to their website.
2. I spend so much time on the scratch forums that I would love to have a nice title go along with my name  wink

Of course you don't have to accept my offer, I'd just like to help.

Oh EDIT: I'm going to copy what coolstuff said because it had a nice ring and makes the point I was looking for words for "I would love to have the opportunity to give back to scratch."

Re: TBG Nominees and their reasons:

my 'speech':

i would love to be a mod on the new TBG. i go on scratch every day, and ive been on scratch for a while. i go on TBG a lot as well. i will use better grammar too  tongue 
i also have rarely taken sides in arguments, and never will if im a mod. also i havent made fun of a scratcher in any way i dont think, and i think most scratchers like me.

I'm sorry but the volenteering is not open any longer for the unofficial election. But the polls are.

Re: TBG Nominees and their reasons:

Oh my goodness. Look. Theres no rush for the election. Why are all of the nominees 'chosen'. Hello. Read the main stickied topic. And go off of that. I say it should be closed this Saturday. Maybe later. I think you just want the least amount of competition possible. You're not the boss...

oK. I would like to clarify everything. I am starting over. The whole original thing went bust because I didn't set a deadline but someone made the poll. I didn't know this and was given the link. I am starting over. Please, please, don't be mad. I can't have people mad at me. Actually, I would LOVE if you could help with the elections. I'd like it to be more than just me because ideas, help, and 2 heads are better than one. Originally this wasn't gonna be official it just turned in to a whole thing.

Personally, I think the mods should organize this a bit more.

Re: TBG Nominees and their reasons:

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 grammar 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 = )

In addition, I've been do both the Scratch Meetup, and Scratch Day, both at MIT, just to prove I am dedicated.

Vouch Lucario621, for mod of Text-Based Games

Use that in the first post.
