A very good choice, you're one of the best Ralph regulars for sure. Well done mate. 🏆

Now clean it up...
 
popular vote tally post.
Sweet. I was wanting to do something similar, I'm glad someone had the same idea.
Now not only did I want to tally the votes so far but also declare the status of their acceptance so you bastards don't need to ping them from here on out if their answer was already given.

@BOLDYSPICY! Current Status: Personally declined, but will do so if they must.
I appreciate the vote of confidence, but please sweet baby Christ no.

I vote @Sam Losco , personally. He knows his shit.

EDIT: I'll step up if I have to, but I'd rather not. I don't play politics well.
@PhoBingas Current Status: *Updated* Personally declined @Haru Okumura Current Status: *Updated* Null seems satisfied with the current amount of mods.
@Sriracha Current Status: Personally declined
I'm really happy that people mentioned me, but:
  1. My account is literally like a month old.
  2. I am not above being completely retarded at all times and have/will engage in dumb as fuck internet slapfights that shit up threads.
I'm more than happy to recap shit and keep doing walls of schizo posting, but I'm not jannying until I've at least been around the site for a couple of years.

I don't think the mods need to be impartial or anything like that, we just need someone who is well organised, archives, keeps things succinct and is active and keeps up with Ralph. @Haru Okumura and @Gustav Schuchardt are all of those things. @BOLDYSPICY! although would be my personal pick, has had Ralph chimp out at her, so having her as a mod makes her an even bigger target for Ralph and makes him more likely to engage in the farms. @Sam Losco would also be a great pick because he is the most active, knows the most about Ralph and does good work finding information, but with this recent infighting, I know that people will flip out if he is modded. @PhoBingas is probably the person who has done the most work streamsniping Ralph, but I think having him streamsnipe and mod the forums would be fucked.

Again, I think the focus should be on the ability to janny, not some arbitrary judge-like figure - leave that to Null.
@Gustav Schuchardt Current Status: Accepted nomination of moderation status; Current Board Mod
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any site which I have been a poster; that I will support and defend the Community Guidelines and rules of the Kiwi Farms against all enemies, Iranian foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear the fasces and banhammer on behalf of the Kiwi Farms when required by the rules; that I will perform noncombatant janny service in the Mod Force when required by the rules; that I will perform work of national importance under non mod direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.
@AltisticRight Current Status: *Updated* Null's Post Current Board Mod
@Crystal Golem Current Status: Personally declined
I will recuse myself as I have been involved in PM faggotry. I would say @Gustav Schuchardt or @Freedom Fries would be good choices.
@death of chans Current Status: Accepted nomination of moderation status; Null seems satisfied with the current amount of mods.
thanks for the vote of confidence, I'd do it, especially since I just want to edit my op's.
whatever needs to be tended to will be addressed, my first act would be edit my op and create a proper gunt general discussion thread.
@Vetti Current Status: *updated* Null's Post Current Board Mod
@Perspicacity Current Status: Null seems satisfied with the current amount of mods.

Personally I think @ElAbominacion seems level headed enough and has a healthy dose of skepticism in his posts. @TwoDollarPeePeePooPoo is my second choice. My final Wild Card vote would go to @Mundane Ralph.

Thanks for all the nominations, but I've said before I don't want to mod / janny the forum. I like my comfy snipes and archiving the tweets, plus I do have one of those j-o-b things, so there would be times when I just wasn't available to move shit or delete shit at the drop of a hat. If I get that involved with the gunt, who knows? Ethan all day, 'ery day might turn me into a guntguard.
@Gustav Schuchardt Is one of the best choices to be honest. I for one look forward to a new era of their iron-fisted even-handed rule.

Citizens of Kiwi! The cruelty of the old mods is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land!

And finally, remember, you do it for free.
 
I was doing some thinking (dangerous, I know), & here's how I would hypothetically organize things.

In other subforums, major events are usually titled in a date - title format. Like so:
20201221_112109.jpg
20201221_112030.jpg

The CWC subforum, for all its autism, has some pretty well-organized containment megathreads.
20201221_112053.jpg
All the random shit that doesn't warrant its own update thread goes there. I think it's a pretty good system.

Now looking at the threads here:
20201221_111140.jpg
:disagree: Needs a date.

20201221_111154.jpg
:disagree: Good, but needs a date in the title.

20201221_111208.jpg
:disagree: Doesn't need its own thread. These can go in Random Updates or whatever.

20201221_111334.jpg
:agree: I'd autistically prefer date - title, but good.

20201221_111220.jpg
:disagree: There's already a Questions thread. These can be merged/condensed.

20201221_111304.jpg
:disagree: Good, but there's already a Killstream Discussion thread. Having a separate one for guests seems superfluous.

I also think since the sub is young, moderation should be a somewhat collaborative effort. I'd recommend a Feedback/Suggestion thread pinned so everyone can discuss what seems to work & what doesn't. The powers that be get the final say, but I like getting people's input.

Just my two & a half yen.
 
Nool said something about a discord group in the top post, and I've also read shitty autism pieces by the noted few on apparently "people from the thread collaborating in a discord group" and "why is that when someone question the leak's validity they are met with whatever whatever", sort of self-validation wank that's honestly fucking irritating; as if they are allowed to spew their autistic bullshit that was addressed weeks back, but whoever counters their bullshit suddenly belongs to some kind of shadowy collective. This is sort of like a persecution complex. I still don't really understand the point or the group they were trying so desperately to allude to.

Didn't have much to do with you, I would assume. Just something in general.
Got it, thanks for clarifying.

I think the biggest hit the forum has taken is locking both the main thread (which was helpful at the start) and the legal thread (which was acting like a general thread). That caused some excesses threads to be made (I am guilty of making one) and if people could actually stick to one thread that would help.
I think it's time to unlock the original thread. All the key people have their own thread now.
 
Some threads deserved to be merged if possible to decrease redundancy, sure. That said, was there ever a final verdict on leaving certain people like Warski left in IF? I just want to know so it can be put to rest.
He could probably go in the Gunt subforum, since he's inexorably linked to Ralph, but he also does his own, non-Ralph-related things. That's up to the discretion of actual moderators that can move shit, though.
