I know it wasn't stipulated here, but I don't think we should be nominating others for the position of Mod.
As for applications being read - all are given equal opportunity, and the Staff have lengthy discusions on the possible nominations.

Marc, the reason why I brought this up is because of what I have observed in one individual in particular-
Excalibur. Since he has applied for the position of a mod, I for one would like to give my preference to him, based on how he has conducted himself on the forum. I think he would be a great addition to the administrative board.
I realize that my recommendation probably has no value as I am not considered very highly here on the forum. I suppose I am not worthy enough to wash other people's cars, let alone nominate someone. To this I would say that I am probably the most hated person in the region I belong to, at least to a couple of individuals. To some, I am 8th Generation's version of the Antichrist.
I appreciate your willingness to discuss this. I only have the best interests of the site at heart. No matter how others see me, I have complete and total allegiance and loyalty to Webby. I respect him for his leadership, his commentary and for his being just an overall nice guy.
I have said my piece. The last thing I want to do is create controversy or trouble here. I love the site too much for that to happen. I do endeavor to be a peacemaker and to be as helpful as I can to others, regardless to how others see me.
