Riiight. Keep thinking highly of yourself b/c you are maybe the only one around here with this line of thought, maybe you don't realize that. [censored] trolls...Hornacek, you are wrong here, we need another mod or Cola needs to step in and or fix is troll detector and do some clean up.

EDIT: Hornacek FOR THE WIN!

I changed my list. If all we need to do is get rid of trolls, then I'm all for [censored] coming in here and cleaning house. As long as he's not dictator-like in any other way.

Frankly, I'd be against most of the posters on this particular forum. Why not Jim Kuhn since he's quiet, restrained, and already a mod?

I like this. That's the challenge of finding a good mod - someone who cares enough to read the posts but doesn't get so emotionally invested that they get into arguments. Nolanfans aren't exactly growing on trees.

Once to prove a point to him about his trollishness, I looked through a bunch of JoA's posts. Honestly, I couldn't find anything, then I realize he probably makes 40+ posts/day in Sports, so inevitably one or two of those are going to be confrontational. I do get something of a smug tone, if that's worth something. Which he may deserve because he does know an assload about sports.

As I don't read too much baseball, I can't help much with nominations, but if Aloysius or tdarko are baseball fans, I'd vote for them. Both are level-headed and can withstand a long debate without making it personal.

JoA would be a terrible mod. He already projects moddery-like attributes. I can only imagine how the extra power would go to his 19-year-old head, and ruin this forum.

The Sports mod. should be AT LEAST 25 years of age. And being a subscriber to baseballprospectus.com should not be a prerequisite. The mod. should be level-headed, fair, and accessible, and not act unilaterally (as I can guarantee JoA would).

Jim Kuhn is the only one I can think of who seems adult enough and able to follow the rules set forth by 2+2 and not act unilaterally. And I'm not a big fan of JK, so that should say a lot.

lol, if tdarko is a baseball fan. if this were a play it'd be dramatic irony [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think it is hilarious how much trouble you guys are having with this. There are 10-15 posters who could do an equally good job, what is the holdup?

you know if cola just banned 3-4 people we wouldn't really need a new mod.

Those are the only two that i can think of who are on and in the baseball threads every day.

They also happen to be two of the biggest trolls on this forum, hence, intrinsically bad choices for modship.

im glad someone else realizes how worthless JoA and Sublime are! Leave things how they are, no more mods, especially not ones with opinions who post often.
