Selecting a Despot for the Autism Thunderdome

[Lurker]

Simple answer. Anyone who posts in A&H has their avatar locked as a funny image. A randomly selected Soyjack maybe. Any rule breaking outside of their containment results in permanent ban. Any janny found to not be containing their ear-marked cattle will be punished accordingly.

Any who enter and post must be branded. Any political sperging is death.

no not my nullie!

Null said he wasn't going to rush the decision, I think, so they're probably still deliberating.

Dear leader's doing some much-needed maintenance and will give me feedback on my plan this weekend, most like. Then we pick junior jannies.

If you do get elected as a mod, be ready for people to actively hate you for it.

tbh more people have acted like I just announced my intent to sudoku than have hated me for it.
Except @Dyn, he flamed me pretty good.

I can see that, yeah.

I mean I would like to be unbanned from AT but I kinda deserved it so I dunno I don’t really think mods should have to research every sperg to see if they are worth unbanning but that’s the only way I can prove my ability to good post.

I post in and rather enjoy the Thunderdome boards so maybe that says something horrible about my character but my experience has been overall positive. I'm not a long-tenured member of the forums but I like it and I'll put my hat in the ring to help keep it going if it'll be useful.

The reason I like it is that even as the shitshow it is, it's still the best place I've ever found online to discuss happenings-related topics. The people here are spergs, but at least everyone seems mostly literate. Try discussing anything at all on Reddit or any other place and the first reply will be "yeah, but have you considered [literally the first thing you said in the post I'm replying to]?" or something like that. It's just nauseating. My affinity towards the board probably shows I'm far too green to have my thoughts about it taken seriously though lol.

Wait there's actually going to be junior jannies?

Same amount of pay, half the powertripping, twice the mockery. A great deal!

They will also be anonymous so they don’t get harassed

You made up that rumor and you know it!

yeah but it was funny

I hope AT can be preserved. I know I fall into the more extreme side of politics and that I enjoy that subforum the most. I guess best we can hope for is an unbiased group of jannies, because the sad truth is this really is one of the last few places left where you can freely speak.

As long as you put effort into posting I would think you would be okay. If you just spaz out anytime someone doesn’t call for RaHoWa then it would be a problem. Defend your idea with sourced info then imo no one should ban you.

Aren’t we already hated just for being here?

 

[RealMuthaForYa]

But…but If you express an interest in being a jannie, it immediately disqualifies you from being one.
Shove it up your arse, I’ve got no interest whatsoever.

 

[Irrational Exuberance]

The ideal mod is one who possesses a great love for the forums in which they are elected to serve, and little for themselves.

They must become like Death itself; severing their ties to those around them, lest they may be persuaded to stay their hand at a crucial moment.
The scythe they wield must never become familiar to them - it is a tool to separate the wheat from the chaff, meant to be used at a particular time and for a particular purpose - not otherwise.

However, when the Reaper hangs up his grim cloak and scythe and sits at table with you, welcome him as a companion - but never a friend.

They should be tagged with these:

If it’s gotten bad enough you need to hire a “director” to deal with the mess maybe it’s just time to shut it down.
