It depends. How did this person vote?

It looks like in all the rules we ever passed on appointing mods for this forum, we never established any voter requirements.
Out of curiosity, can mods or an admin check to see if mikelovescorgies matches another forum user?
While we’re checking forum users, can we also check against non forum users like Arizona Ron?
Wtf is wrong with people?

am i missing something, or isn’t this just a play on mike loves orgies?
anyway, we have precedent for dealing with voter fraud. if the questionable votes make a difference to the outcome, then we can request the admins to review them.

Boring. Disallow it.
And this is where you pretend that I sock puppeted a gimmick account and used a proxy server fri Arizona To cast a vote that didn’t matter.
2/3 majority needed to confirm
So I am out
I believe you meant VPN, sir.
Looks like Wookie is right on the margin at exactly 2/3rds of 117 votes.
UPers love drama. Voting Wookie in will make sure we have hundreds of new About Mod posts per week.
I generally like Wookie and think he’s been a good, if imperfect like everyone, mod over the years. I appreciate his time spent volunteering and generally think we should encourage forum involvement.
That said, given the current dynamics of this forum, wookie winning on the number with keed voted down essentially on the number seems like a really bad outcome.

I haven’t voted one way or the other on SenorKeeed yet. Generally I think people who want to be mods should get a chance. However, I’m hesitating here mainly because of what happened when the forum was debating a proposal to create a sub-forum with different rules. My memory is that SK championed that idea, and I along with others put some work into creating a more concrete proposal that seemed to have interest from both sides. Then he and others who had been advocating the idea abandoned the project. It seemed counterproductive to me.

You mean the idea for the ghetto? Jeez I wonder why that got scrapped?
I encourage some vote trading amongst the yes/no’s for Wookie/keed and the no/yes’s for Wookie keed so they both pass.

I started championing that idea when JT and microbet and a few other I value a lot took a two week ban on the way to a permaban. I thought moving that idea forward would help convince them to stay, which I really wanted because I thought further subdividing of this forum isn’t sustainable (I still do). When they came off their temp bans the support for the proposal I made in their absence was lukewarm in “our” camp and then we abandoned it. I appreciate your effort, understand why you might have negative feelings towards me about that project, and apologize for wasting your time.

Keeed was lost, and is found.

I thought that was pretty funny, even if nobody else did.
