Suggest a New Mod!

STANDARD DISCLAIMER:This does not mean we are looking for new moderators or that anyone who receives a nomination has an actual chance at being asked to be a moderator. Self-nominations will not even be looked at!

So, we get peppered regularly with questions to the effect of "How do I become a moderator?" and "So-and-so would make a great mod, don't you think?"

So, here's your chance to submit an opinion that won't be met with an annoyed moderator checking off your telegram and hitting the "Delete Telegrams" button. The rules are simple.

Don't nominate yourself. That's just like asking about how one becomes a mod. We want to know who else you think might be mod material. We won't even look at self-nominations. And we will check to make sure you aren't nominating yourself using a puppet!
Send an email to NominateANationStatesMod(at)gmail(dot)com that contains all of the information listed below.
Serious opinions only, please!

In your email, be sure to include the following information: (Note that fields marked with a * are required if you want us to look at your nomination!)

*Your nation's name
*Your email address
Your IRC nickname (if applicable)
*Your nomination's name. (Or primary nation, if the player has more than one)
Your nomination's IRC nickname (if applicable)
*Reasons why you think your nomination would make a good moderator.
*Reasons why you think your nomination may not make a good moderator (Remember, folks, nobody's perfect!)
****List of links to threads/posts by your nomination that you think supports your reasons****
Any other assorted information you feel should be mentioned regarding the nomination

Thank you, and good luck!

Don't forget the links, folks! That's important! You must post links to sources that back up your opinion.

In response to an email question:

Yes, you may suggest more than one candidate. Please make each additional nomination in a separate email, and follow the other rules listed above. Don't email us more than once about any given favorite, though - this isn't a popularity contest.

The nominations so far have been rather predictable. Why not think outside the lines and nominate someone that we might have missed? The worst that can happen is that we'll ignore your suggestion, and the best might be a "hmm, why not!" response.

OK, the worst that can happen is that we'll laugh about you behind the closed doors of the Mod Cave, but you'll never know, so go for it.
