imo you're making yourself look like a far, far worse choice than you were pre-campaign.

I still think he's a pretty good choice in relation to the field.

Pallow claims 200+ have thrown their name into the hat
so when the are announced it may be more like "who dat?"

True. All I have to go on is who have admitted to applying.

Still, there may be a certain amount of reticence to selecting individuals who are totally unknown, because regardless of qualifications, it can be a bit of a roll of the dice as to how well they handle interacting with the userbase. That's not to say that forum notoriety is a full factor, but meeting a certain threshold of activity is probably a desired attribute.

Not sure if Pallow wants this exposed...but the 6th post down gave me a small bit of hope.

Is it really?

Relatively unknown (in the forums) decides to campaign HARD whenever a moderator position is mentioned? Very little "dog in the fight" regards improving forum quality, have to wonder just why he wants it so bad.

Being relatively unknown but doing some organization things behind the scenes is FAR more enticing than someone who goes from ghost to boltzspam at the mention of a chance at power. Scary is the word I would use, I think.

Perhaps, if I had put in an application. I legitimately wouldn't want the "job". Arguing with idiots that it is still racist even if it is "just their opinion" just doesn't sound like how I want to spend my evening anymore.

Yea but you argue with idiots thinking their opinion is worth something in GD all the time.

Well, I suppose "unknown" is partly a quality that's subjective according to the observer (granted you can quantify notoriety in an objective manner, just saying that people with different levels of interaction with an applicant will have different opinions on that person's qualifications). Really just expressing my personal opinion on the guy.

EDIT: I've had a couple (OK, more than a couple) of glasses of wine, and I'm well aware I phrased this really poorly. However, also likely due to the wine, I can't think of a better way to do it. So it's just kind of a roundabout way of saying I like TN and think he would do a good job but I don't begrudge anyone else their opinions on the matter.

I get to choose when I want to do that though.

Well, before his campaign I would have felt alright about it. He pops in on the forums every once in awhile, and runs a few behind the scenes organizations, or at least did at some time.

Becoming Boltz at the prospect of gaining power is literally frightening though.

its these people that come out of nowhere to become mods that fuck everything up.

Hey, I remember Boltz too.

Not sure there could possibly be another Boltz out there. The universe would implode or something. At the very least they'd have to enact a "there can be only one" style duel to the death.

We don't do this stuff anymore. We've retired from the trolling game.
