Title: I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 28, 2007, 02:14:15 PM
Well, I'm quiting, if you don't already know that from the past two days. Because I'm quiting, I feel I should be the one who chooses my replacement, not Jack, because I'm leaving at my own free will, not being fired.

Congradulations MagmarFire, you're a mod now.

Well, that was fairly obvious...

Actually, I almost chose Shikamaru, but I decided they were both equal and did the only thing that could decide in a days limit: I put them on a piece of papar, dropped them in a hat without looking, and, still not looking, chose.

Hmm, well, that works then.
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 28, 2007, 02:29:22 PM
Yes, it actually wouldn't matter which I chose they'd both be very good mods.

Well he isn't an acutal mod until Jack gets back.
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 28, 2007, 02:32:23 PM
Correct, but he WILL be my replacement, or else...

*sigh* I swear I have the worst luck in the world... 8)

Honestly though, remember the video contest? We got it all done, I did all the editing, and we couldn't  upload it to Youtube. It was the wrong format, and in order to get a thing to reformat it we would have had to shell out $80.

I'm sure you'll get another chance.  ;)

Wait a second, why aren't you being a mod anymore? :o
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 28, 2007, 03:30:19 PM
*SIGH* Man, I'm getting tired of explaining to everyone.

Basically:
A) It would get very old to keep deleting posts and giving warnings all the time and eventually I wouldn't do it like I meant it.
B) I'm tired of arguing with everyone over my modship.
C) Other members deserve to be mods and this will give them the chance.
D) Eventually, I would have quit in about 3 or 4 months, I only wanted to be a mod for a year.

i understand your point, but it really isnt up to you, magmar would be a great mod in fact my opinion on new mods is this

1.Shika
2.Magmar
3.Me or JQ

if jack decides to make magmar a mod or if the new second admin decides to make him a mod, its their choice

This was very random and very sudden. I suppose magmar could be a od, and a good one at that. But he'll need to:

a) want to be a mod and
b) JACK WILL NEED TO APPROVE IT!

Don't make all these final decisions and whatnot about the Forum. It's Jack's, he gets to decied the mod who takes your place, not you.

Post by: DW on April 28, 2007, 07:58:55 PM
It's also his choice about the forum admin, but I really don't think he'll complain about Gamefreak...

Post by: MagmarFire on April 28, 2007, 08:08:00 PM
Whoa. The stuff that I miss after being absent for about a day and a half. ;)

Anyway, I'd be very happy to receive the honor of modship, and I gratefully accept it. Still, we do have to wait for Jack to make the final decision. He does call the shots, after all.

you probably will get it though seeing as you have recomendation from a mod

I know the feeling.

However, I think you might be jumping the gun just a bit.  While recommending a mod would be good.  Coming right out and saying that MagmarFire is a mod now is a little naive.  A lot can happen, and what if(in the worst case scenario) MagmarFire doesn't become a mod?  Then he's let down, and you look foolish for outright saying that he's a mod.  Kind of like the "Dewey defeats Truman" thing, never assume.

Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 29, 2007, 07:13:27 AM
He'd probably would, I'm sure of it. And there are other ways to make him one.... *Begins Evil Laugh*
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: DW on April 29, 2007, 07:55:19 AM
...Actually, there reallly aren't. I'd like to see you try and force Jack to make him one.
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 29, 2007, 08:12:19 AM
Who said anything about forcing him. *cough* Blackmail *cough*
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: DW on April 29, 2007, 08:12:50 AM
Right, and how could you possibly blackmail Jack?
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 29, 2007, 08:14:05 AM
I'm very good friends with Ezlo, you see... and Ezlo's been working with Jack for years, he knows things.
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: MasterKeyX on April 29, 2007, 08:59:46 AM
 :P It won't work. Don't even bother trying.

Listen, I dont think Jack'll have a problem... just know that he might.

Then you = banned.

Seriously, did your parents tell you that the Tooth Fairy is also real, and to this day, you STILL believe them?

You = not getting jokes.

Anyway, to avoid a possible argument, how about we get back on topic, hmmm? ;)
Title: Re:I've decided my replacement
Post by: Mysterious F. on April 30, 2007, 12:04:22 PM
JQ, that was, rather obviously after I posted the Ezlo part, a joke. And the tooth fairy isn't real.

There's actualy little to discuss about anymore. I've decided my replacement. That's pretty muich it.
