    If a voter supports a certain nominee, then the voter should support the nominee's choices, whatever those may be. Politicians often use this method when they know they'll not win and transfer their support to another candidate.

    Perhaps this question can be put to poll?

    (Q),

    This is multi-choice vote; the voters for that nominee should have made a second choice as well. I voted for Persol and Skinwalker, persol jumped out, my vote was not wasted.

    goofyfish,

    but some of the other mods can see Ip addresses.

    Goofyfish, what do you want me too reply too, because I edited my post and added a few thoughts I forgot to add before? You think that is a crime or something?

    This is completely possible... but to claim that is is likely requires some reasoning.
    Yeah, he has the several times completely changed the topic of his post AFTER I've responded. It got to the point where I had to quote what he said just so it wouldn't change.

    You know what, at this point I could care less who wins. Both stryder and skin will probably do a good job anyhow.

    just perhaps we could have both of them as moderator?

    Don't think that's needed... and honestly don't think it would work. I voted for skinny, but if stryder wins only stryder should be a mod.

    stryder is already a mod, let him share the love to the runner up.

    Don't you remember nusery school... sharing never works quite right. There doesn't seem to be a need for two mods in this forum... but goofy probably knows the level of modding needed more than we do. I know I only rarely notice when stuff is deleted (even when it was my stuff that is deleted).

    I notice it a lot and a lot of closed threads as well, beside politcs/events has two mods and you don't see them complaining. Perhaps we could make it cover both Pseudoscience and Parapsychology subforums... as they are both the same crap (though Parapsychology is more benign.)

    But politics/events is a damn mess. We have 2 fairly well defined groups in psuedo on a limited number of topics. Politics/events has a less limited number of topics that come up, but different people in different topics. Those sub-forums have demonstrated a need for 2 mods.

    Eh, we'll see. I just don't want two mods just itching for stuff to moderate. There is plenty for one mod, but I'm not sure about two.

    Also, why is it that several people have been complaining that they are 'not represented', yet they haven't really participated in this thread except to moan about 'THEM' moderating stuff in a biased manner? Just goes to show that they don't want any actual discussion and would rather resort to innuedno.

    Persol, you forgot to mention that the World Events section is the biggest sub-forum here.

    Oh, and also, the World Events section is the biggest sub-forum here.

    and so why don't we include Parapsychology in the job position? I don't see able to stryder moderating all three.

    I think if you're going to add a 2nd moderator, you should vote on it. Just like this one.

    I agree with VRob on this one. You can't just guess that the people who want Stryder or skin for this forum also want them for parapsy... or want both.
