    Seamus, DAdakopf and 80p have volunteered already.

    This is an official call for people to throw their hats in the ring.

    Rules:

    1. You must be in 3rd level education of some description.
    2. You must have been on Boards at least a while so you know the culture here.
    3. You must not be Digi_Tilmitt, SMAK or RichinDub. (:p)
    4. You must be somewhat sane.
    5. You must be willing to log in to your board at least once a day.

    Then the admins will pick probably 4 people for the two boards in an alarmingly random fashion with seemingly no thought behind it at all.

    80p is a worthy opponent, so I'm not going to bitch and moan when he gets it :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,731 ✭✭✭DadaKopf


    Uh,

    I don't really wanna go on an ego trip but I'msure most people can vouch I'm in college and and will be still for quite a while and I log in every day at least 20 million times. Other people can tell you if I'm sane or not. Last time I checked, I didn't have a stamp on my hand.

    I wouldn't mind lending a hand here at boards.ie... I also think my heavy doses of sarcasm could come in handy here.

    Sane enough, I think. I assume that sitting upside down on a half-full train carriage isn't an automatic disqualification?

    I may as well throw my hat in the ring too.

    1) I'm a 4th year in TCD.
    2) I've been around boards a good while.
    3) I'm not any of those muppets. :D
    4) I think so.
    5) Always do.

    i pass all of the above as u know tom... although i am a bit of a muppet.. but that would stop.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭Kairo


    I qualify for all the above. (Althought my sanity is somewhat questionable)

    Put me down also. :)


  • Subscribers Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭Draco


    What about those of us that work in a college? ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,501 ✭✭✭✭Slydice


    I'll offer my services, if ye want.

    it's rare that i don't check boards 5 times a day


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    I suppose I could throw my hat in, but tbh theres so many requests from ppl better than me that I really can't see a point.

    I'm torn between backing DadaKopf, or fighting da power and nominating SMAK.


    A point, what about a mod for each main uni, UCC, TCD, UCD etc, or for each main uni city, Cork, Dublin, and Galway? I know I'm ignoring IT's but it's not personal.

    Since the system from college to college varies widely, would this not make more sense?

    You just lost any hope of getting it had you been looking for it.

    Us ex-IT types are quite militant and much better at putting phyical items to practical use (like hitting people) than those theoretical "If I punch him in the forest and nobody sees me, will I get arrested" ex-uni types.

    or something :)

    Ahh yes, but who will be hiring yee to do the punching...

    The vicious circle continues!!


    Nah mate, twasn't a slight against IT's its just that there are only 3 college town's cities (excluding maynooth) while we'd have 10+ mods if we put one for every IT town/city.


    Plus I'm a UCC student, you should know I'll only target abouse at CIT and TCD. Dodgy Maths degree in TCD eh DeV? ;)

    Oh I'm in for a good smacking methinks....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,670 ✭✭✭Doc


    Id like to put my name forward for the Mod job. ;)

    I think I should be considered because…

    I normally look up boards every day and have been a member longer then most.

    My post count might not be the highest but that’s because I tend only to start topics I think a good lot of people will reply to or reply to posts I feel strongly about.

    I post a lot about University life and work when I do post.

Don't pick me coz i won't do anything for you, i won't do ******** anything for this board and i won't ****** give a ******** ***** cos im a lazy uni bum. ********** ********* i say. ******* ******* ****. ***** :p

    I withdraw my former statement supporting Dadakopf. I now suggest mod'ing Digi Tilmitt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Ahh but kaids, surely he's far too mature and elderly to mod such ruffians as us student types?




    (In case you couldn't tell, I'm being very very sarcastic :rolleyes: )

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,079 ✭✭✭Mr.Applepie


    Why with my charm and dashing good looks i'd be the perfect choice for a mod.
    1. You must be in 3rd level education of some description.
    Thats an afirmative!
    2. You must have been on Boards at least a while so you know the culture here.
    Yes Sir! Afirmative Sir!
    3. You must not be Digi_Tilmitt, SMAK or RichinDub. ()
    I wasnt any of these last time i checked but who knows for sure....
    4. You must be somewhat sane.
    Im sure that rule can be bent a little for me :D
    5. You must be willing to log in to your board at least once a day.
    I log on about 10 times a day

    Wait a second on second thoughts i dont want the job

    Responsibliity:(
    POWA TRIP:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    I would like to throw my hat into the ring. I know that I have not been too active on the boards of late, but now that I am settled into college (first year) I check the boards at least once a day, and as far as I know I make a sane contribution to any descussion that I find some what intresting. I have been a member of the boards for 2 years I think most people should know me...... bla bla bla......
