Round 3 Part 2 - Team 2 (Team Awesome)

[ljkkjlcm9]

Another valid point. Let's say candidate 5 posts an event idea in the staff area. Majority of the staff disprove of this idea. They just don't see the point. Is this the type of guy to argue and prove his point to the rest of the group, or to just crawl away and accept defeat without fighting?

Candidate 5 would just be someone we could all boss around.

Your blowing "shies from confrontations" way out of proportion.

A big confrontation would be VTG's "Social Test". I feel its very easy to understand someone not wanting to get involved in that, but closing a thread, deleting something for someone, merging posts. This is something that someone who doesn't want confrontations can still do. And I don't think you could say the person wouldn't say anything, they might not present a totally different opinion, thats more of 1's territory, but I could see someone who likes to go with the flow adding opinions.

5 does have a weakness, but I feel that he has serious strengths, viewing all the forums, and working on events.

*sit back and watches this argument and says nothing, in the end, siding with the popular opinion*

Just kidding.

My vote still goes to 3 and 1, in that order, for reasons specified in my first post in this thread that I don't want to rewrite because I currently have a migraine the size of Australia and just can't focus at the moment.

I agree with boko that you are pushing his "shyness" to its extreams, but I think I made some good points, if we have two different members, each with a focus on polor opposites of the site, but still venture into the other areas, then we have the whole area covered. We can still do events on our own, and we have to smart, respectable new members in our ranks.

"Shies from confrontation and goes with the flow."

If enough people are against this person, they will never stand up and fight back. That's exactly what that description says. If I were candidate 5 right now, I would've given up long ago.

plus, we have 10 people on staff, currently in an event right now. I don't think that strength is enough.

Goes with the flow doesn't mean they are never passionate about something. Again, I feel shooting someone down only because they aren't confrontational isn't a good choice.

and I feel event planning isn't a good enough reason to promote someone.

What about viewing the entire forum a rare quality?

Candidate 3 also views the whole forum, just posts in the gaming areas more often.

plus candidate 5 is really active at times, and really inactive at other times. We need someone who will be constant, even if it's constantly moderate.

... Is no one even listing to my suggestions?

Viewing the entire forum isn’t a huge deal if we have two people that focus on two different aspects of the site, and still look at the rest of the site. 1 and 3 BOTH look at the whole site, they just have an area they focus on, so they have an area they could focus there moderating abilities on.

Now I am not hell bent on keeping 5 out of the staff by any means, I just think we should hold off on promoting him. And if you two keep arguing like this then we are not going to come to our decision in time! Neither of you are going to change your views so how about you look at the other aspects that could make someone a good CK?

[Goldenboko]

It says, "Much less in general". We need to take that at face value that he doesn't post much in general. He also doesn't help with events.

I feel that 5 would make a great moderator and a behind the scenes person

But 1 would be a bad moderator and a good behind the scenes person.

EDIT: Dolen, calm down, spirited debate bud, spirited debate

I completely agree with promoting candidate 1 and 3. I'm against promoting candidate 1 and 5.

[qwertysaur]

So, are we in agreement on the promotion of 1, and either 3 or 5?
