If anyone else feels this way, I'm very happy volunteering to moderate, though I don't have the time to do justice to an admin role - not that it looks like we need any more of those :)

You're my first choice, topazg. If you need a campaign manager, let me know. We'll crush the opposition into tiny bits :twisted:

You're nominating me? I got thrown off the KGS admin team. By the guy I chose to manage my system. Trust me, I'm not good at this kind of stuff.

I also want to throw my weight behind kirkmc's nomination as a mod, I also think that Sol.ch would make a good mod as well.

I support topazg for the nomination. From what I recall he remained civil even during the dreaded Jasiek-Csaba debate.
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

As someone who has known wossname for a while, both online and off, I can vouch that he will keep this campaign promise. wossname 2010!

In the spirit of a more democratic forum, I'd like to suggest that we have a vote after the nominations are in.
Patience, grasshopper.

A vote is the plan. So far all the nominations for admins have been pretty unanimous between about 5 names. So the vote may only be necessary for moderators.

But, if people say differently, we will vote on both. The goal of this site is to be "by the community, for the community" (yes i just quoted abe lincoln...in a way)

I'll configure a poll soon for moderators. But, first, we need to decide how many moderators we want to have out there. After that the poll goes up and every name mentioned.
I'm thinking...
