I just hope that if you do become a mod you won't encourage the trouble makers like some of the other mods do.
A forum for discussion about topics and information found on Absolute Anime.

Well I believe I'm ready for anything.º-Tenshi_Karasu-º wrote:In my opinion, it's about time you applied.
I believe you will become an exelent moderator, you're app is very well writtena nd well structured, your attitude and behavior are a great example to follow and you have already provided the current mods some precious help.
All in all I think you have what it takes to be a good mod as long as you're prepared for the adversities that come with it.
If we made mods based only on their applications, then you would definitely get it.Athos wrote:I, Athos, am running for a position as a Moderator because it has come to my attention that Absolute Anime is in need of a different kind of Moderator, one that can provide leadership and help maintain order throughout the forums and threads.
I have been a member of this site for approximately two years. Since joining, I have never spammed, nor have I ever been banned or suspended from this site. I will admit that I have argued back with some users in the past, and simply, there is nothing I can really say to justify my reactions.
I also want to make it clear that if I were to become a Moderator, that it is a serious and delicate task. To me, being a Moderator means being the Webmaster's assistant in enforcing the rules of this site, and to warn members of their conducts. In addition, in becoming a Moderator, I understand that it will mean to choose to do the right thing in any given situation, even if it means making some friends angry.
Furthermore, I also understand that I were to become a Moderator, that I would loose the so-called 'privilege' of spamming, arguing, etc...In my eyes, these are not privileged. No where in the rules does it say that a user is entitled to do such actions, rather, they are prohibited.
Finally, I am also able to work with people in a consistent and professional matter. I know that some of you might disagree to the above statement. However, in my defense, no one here has seen me in a professional capacity. I work with a variety of personalities in the past few years, as being an public servant, a cadet commander, and a customer service clerk.
I hope that you will find me fit to become a Moderator. If you have any questions, please post your questions here, or feel free to PM me, and I will answer your questions as soon as I can.

But I can't say I know you well enough to say yes, despite the fact that you have a million more post than me, I rarely see you around doing any sort of posting, and I don't really know you beyond a few words exchanged here and there.
So I'm going to reserve judgement, I'll enjoy speaking with you in the future though.

At last you finally applied for being a mod! I know you'll be a great mod. You're disciplined and you make wise judgments in decisions you make.
Although you get support here, there will always be a minority that simply don't like you cause you are a mod.Athos wrote:divinephoenix wrote:A YES from me!

Well, if people would have told me sooner, I probably would have done it XD. I didn't think I would have gained this much support.
I think so too. When I was promoted to C/First Lieutenant a small faction of my unit didn't like me because I was an officer. However, over time, some got past that difference, and others didn't like me because I was an officer...Sure didn't stop me from performing my duties, and from there on, I only went up.+:D.Ř.Ę.Ŧ.Ļ.Ĭ .N:+ wrote:Although you get support here, there will always be a minority that simply don't like you cause you are a mod.Athos wrote:divinephoenix wrote:A YES from me!

I think you can handle that.

However, I have one quick note; you need to become more active if you wish to succeed in becoming a great Moderator. Also I heard that you were going to leave the forum and only be part of the Chat. What does this comply?

No opinion yet. You're a decent person, but I'm not sure you're fit for the job. I'll stop by later.
STOP LYING YOU FOOL!!!Hallow Ichigo wrote:I just hope that if you do become a mod you won't encourage the trouble makers like some of the other mods do.
