    I'm with MOA on this. If someone sent in my name, I wouldn't want to do it. I think people should first express interest. I don't care how the vote happens- whether it be via clicky poll or PM.
    How about his... if you do NOT want to be in the running as a mod PM me that detail and if your name is voted for I will know that you do not want to be in the running.

    PM me if you have any other questions about this

    thanks
    WTF
    It's clear that a few of you do not want to be a mod and if that's the case then you can just tell me; just like if you would like to nominate yourself -- you can include either detail in a PM.

    I will note everything that everyone sends me. I'm flexible and ready to make sure that you guys get the best mod possible.

    Greatly appreciate everyone who follows up via PM!

    I'm not sending a PM to let you know I don't want to do it...  I'm a rebel, yo.  Just note that I don't want to do it.  :)

    While it's definitely easier to vote through a clicky poll, it actually makes sense to me for it to be done through PM. People "nominated" won't be able to see how many votes they get (or don't get), which could lead to hurt feelings if someone who gets a ton of votes doesn't get asked to be a mod for whatever reason, or if someone who wants to be a mod doesn't get many votes from the board.
    I knew you were against clicky polls, too! If someone is going to get butt hurt over not having a lot of votes they probably don't have the emotional capacity to moderate an Internet forum. I'm not saying a clicky poll would be the end all be all of it because obviously you can't have a mod that isn't capable of doing the job, but people should be able to volunteer themselves because it is a commitment.
    I have a problem making single choices! I need ALL the options, and clicky polls restrict me freedom of expression! 

    That doesn't mean I don't want the rest of you to have them though. :)

    I will not be voting for you because of your anti-clicky poll stance. I take clicky polls very seriously. ;-)

    How about everyone PM everyone and then we'll combine the PMs and PM everyone so that it's simple? Or we could just PM everyone except the ones we PM'd.
    Just PM me and I'll take care of it

    Again, apologies for the bolded text the other day, it was unintentional

    So my takeaways from is are 1. NestCayla's "thanks for understanding" is the new ban proof way of saying "fuck off" and 2. Secret PM voting is her way to tell us all 'thanks for understanding' cause she is picking the mod and it won't be a Bitter Betty 3ter damnit or someone that actually calls people out for rude, insensitive, and /or dumb or cruel comments and actions. She wants puppies and rainbows ya'll
    Fixed that for ya.
    I loled for real.

    So who's going to create the clicky poll anyway, just to see if the results match up?

    Do we have to pay shipping on these babies? if so, I need a light one.

    Shipping to Canada is not cheap.

    I also need you to write "gift" on the box so I don't pay duty.

    Well, I don't know if you know this, but I happen to have an in with a shipping company, so free shipping is a bonus- but only if you cast your vote today.  Go ahead and order that chunky baby, I won't tell anybody. 

    And of course it will be marked gift, the greatest gift a vagina can give.
