Back to Everything Unix

Moving on soon; searching for replacement

Oluseyi Sonaiya · 2003-08-23T22:35:18

My interests are shifting and I''ve decided that it''s time for me to move on. I may still occasionally visit GameDev once I do move on, but not frequently enough to warrant remaining a moderator of any sort. As a result, I want to canvass opinions for a replacement moderator for this forum from the people who frequent it the most. I''d like to say that moderating this forum has been an extremely enjoyable experience, completely lacking the problems and difficulties of other boards on this site. Discussion is relevant, on-topic and very courteous and I often have to do no more than scan thread titles once every few days. I appreciate it, especially given the contentious nature of many other Unix-related boards across the ''net. So, the floor is open. Please state whom you wish to nominate along with one or two justifications. At week''s end I will close this thread, sift through the nominations and forward the top 3, in my estimation, to Dave (who is not aware I''m doing this, actually; he is aware I want to move on, though). Thanks.

I doubt my "vote" will matter much as I''ve always posted anonymously, but if you''re going to leave, then I''d like to see Null and Void as the new moderator. If that''s ok with him, of course.

I''d like to take this opportunity to congratulate you. You are one of the most civic moderators on this site, and I think this forum greatly benefited from it.

Hope this helps.

I''d do it in the absence of any other takers, but there seem to be some, so nevermind.

although come to think of it, I should update the email in my profile to something that isnt insanely outdated. (I don''t even think I HAVE that hotmail account anymore)

not sure why I just thought of that

or why I''m telling you people. or why I''m hitting the reply button now.

I believe that I would make an excellent moderator for this forum.

Seems like a lot of people for Null and Void, so I will probably vote for that, although I am surprised nobody voted for tuxx, since he is only one letter more than the linux mascot, and has created those great cooking tutorials.

You didn''t even check that

Consoles, PDAs, and Cell Phones, Scripting Languages and Game Mods, Software Engineering, Article Proposals and Requests, Hands-On Interactive Game Development, GameDev: Arena, Cone3D, NeXe, Real Soon Now. Not to mention any *ahem* other forums.

Music and Sound Rox0rZ j0ur Box0rz, sir!

BTW (gotta add something useful): Null and Void is a champ on other forums as well, so yeah - give him my vote.
