    I'm back...

    So where to begin?

    First order of business will be to fix up the main site, after that i'll move on to the forums.

    I'm looking for people interested in writing for the main site, send me a pm if you're interested. If anyone knows php and would like to help with some coding please send me a pm.


    One more thing...

    Send applications for Krb's job to Ciber@gotwoot.net



    Thanks.

    I'm such a newbie here that you must have already left before I even got here. But this post of yours certainly looks promising. Good luck with the work.

    Too bad I have no php experience. But then again, you probably expected useless posts like this...

    wait a minute....Ciber's alive.

    Usually when someone is gone for a month I presume them dead, but since you're not let the celebrations begin.

    Whoa, its a ghost.

    Ciber, what would need to be in these applications, other than our desperate atempt to take KRB's job?


    For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.

    lol, i have no idea who this person is (must've been from before i joined...) but I know not to mess with anyone with "admin" in their title... Good to see you're back, sir!

    The mainpage is going to get updated again? Hell yes! I first found this place and started using it as a way to find when Naruto releases were out and to DL them. Then I found the Paradise known as the forums and, well, the rest is history. Hopefully this'll get some new (and hopefully competent) members on the forum!

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Maybe you have missed what happened recently.

    Krb's apology

    I don't think we have been informed if he has stepped down or if he got demoted. Except for what can be found on rolleyes.

    Welcome back Ciber. Here's an idea that might lighten your burden a little.
    We could have some sort of nomination process and then vote on who should be the next mod. This vote doesn't need to be deciding, but it will give you an overall feel about what people are suited for the position.

    I don't think that's a good idea. It has always been said that forums are no democracy, but it's not just an empty explanation to people who err to think so. The reason is that forums shouldn't be a democracy in order to work. Being a mod is no reward. Everybody who has been a mod at places that have all kinds of members know that.

    I believe there are still a bunch of active admins / mods here. The normal way would be for Ciber to discuss with them, as they should know who are suitable of those who applied.

    The new moderator has already been appointed. Thanks for your interest.

    And yes, Kr is gone.

    If you're looking for a new admin, shouldn't you just pick among the moderators we have?

    that would be the most logical choice. just make the most responsible mod (guess thats a matter of opinion) an admin.

    but maybe they're going to make it a suprise, and have a party that we'll(I'll) never get invited to

    aww, i sorta wanted to see a Gotwoot Election! See which user could manipulate the masses the best, get people all pumped up behind their favorite candidate, the mud-slinging between candidates, a real-time debate in IRC, the nailbiting leading up to the closing of the polls. Then find out that whoever gets picked has nothing to do with people's consensus, other than those in power.

    And I can already imagine the shit-ton of fake user registrations that would be made to vote.... maybe we'd only count people with 100+ posts? Oh well, it would be a messy affair, but that sort of thing really gets my blood broiling. I love politics.

    shucks... *tucks away "Masamuneehs for Moderator '06!!!" banners*

    So, basically, we'd have the courts decide the outcome of this election as well, eh? Oh, man, I wonder which section of the forum we could make into a mini-Florida...
    Edit: Can we make a game of "Guess the new mod"? That might be hilarious, but we would have to limit it to one guess per person.
    Edit2: @Below- Makes sense, since a random poster would basically be a total stranger to the current admins.

    Ciber was joking about the adminstrator part. There's no way a random poster would suddenly become admin [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
