Another Full Mod?
Do you think that we need another "Ming" on Poly? Or is just one Ming enough?

Making a second try for Modhood?

Seriously, IMO, Rah, MtG, and Solver would all be good candidates.

Wow, has it been that long since we had a "I wanna be mod" thread?

And if I remember correctly, the main mods answer was that the best mods are those who don't ask to be mods

How many times do I need to say this. I am NOT asking to be a mod. And I am tired of people putting words in my mouth.

A little sensitive are we NM?

/me wonders when NM last said he didn't want to be a mod, he has a very short memory.

I'm sure if the admin felt that another full-time mod was needed, Rah's workload would be increased.

I'm sure if Ming wants workload redistributed he would tell the owners, especially now he could give some of it to his brother.

So we can curse and insult them, post nasty pics and link to warez sites as much as we want in this thread with no repercussions?

Just because they won't take anything doesn't mean they won't give things... like bans, PCRs, all-expenses-paid trips to Minagpulco...

But think of rah's wife...
Seriously, I agree with the ones claiming that Ming will tell. He isn't directly dumb either as I've understood it. Althought he does non-humanly much work after what I can understand.

Agreed. He must spend an insane amount of time at Apolyton.

That + his dayjob. I'm sure Mrs. Ming feels rather lonely at times

I haven't seen many places at all that a mod was needed where he wasn't there. If Ming wants more time off, then that is a different story. I haven't seen him complain about his duties anywhere. When Dan and Mark decide we need another mod, then I'm sure they will have plenty of competent people to choose from.

Got it in one, HT. Quite frankly this is a crappy thread. Dan and Markos will appoint someone if they feel the need to. Quite frankly, NM, your wasting your time even asking to be a mod.

Besides of which, Ming has time to post on quite a few other forums. He can't be that busy here.

Eh, ban Panag, and you could probably cut back a mod.

Just try to post a spam thread, and see the moderator response. I think they have excellent coverage.

Gee, must be a stupid staff member who brings up the issue in the public and not with the site owners or in the staff room. As Frozzy and HT said, IMHO there's already enough mods. I'm sure Ming and the rest will voice their opinions to Markos and Dan, if they think more is needed.

Sorry, looks like your second attempt is wasted.
