LEGO Message Boards Wiki:Requests for Rights/Chat Moderator

This is LMBW's requests for chat moderator page. If you wish to request moderator rights, please read this page first, and make sure you fulfill the requirements listed here. Moderators have the ability to kick and ban users from chat when they are being disruptive.

To file a request, place the following code under the "current requests" header, above any existing requests.

replace this with your username
replace this with a brief paragraph about why you want to be nominated. ~

Comments


Requests made on this page are a vote, meaning that if they achieve at least 20 supporting votes and 75% support out of the total supports and opposes, then their request will be closed as successful. Users voting on a request must give a valid reason for their support or oppose. Most requests last for around a week, unless there is clear consensus either way after a short period of time. At least 96 hours must pass before a request can be closed.

If a user has been nominated for chat moderator before, add  to the end of the topic header. If a request for moderator fails, the user who requested the rights must wait 4 weeks before requesting them again. For users with multiple requests, add the respective number of the request. It is also considered good practice to link to previous requests for rights when nominating a user.

Archived requests can be found here.

Why do I want CM? Well...I care for LMBW. It's a place that means a lot to me. I've spent years of my life here, and I wish to help keep the place fun and safe for everyone else. But what could I add to the current CM team? Yes, it's true. We've got a lot of capable CMs already. Sometimes, the chat has more CMs than regular users. However, at night, when I'm most active, there are generally few CMs, especially active ones (even as I type this, there are none on). I believe I'd be a valuable addition to the CM team. I've got a lot of previous CM experience and I'm very familiar with our policy. I'm also on chat for long periods of time, especially at night where things can get a bit wild. I'm not afraid to use my rights when necessary, and I'm always very ready to help any users who need it. I'm also very willing to take advice from users on how to improve as a CM. And yes, previously, I was demoted from my CM status, this is true. I had used a term that had unfortunately offended a few users. I apologize for the hurt feelings, and I hope you'll be willing to reconsider your feelings for me regarding me being a CM. I try especially hard to get along with everyone now. In conclusion, I wish to be able to help this Wiki be a more calm and civil place. Thanks for considering me! Nehpets7000 (talk) 05:04, October 11, 2015 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Point was literally just proven on chat...no CMs on, and I believe that Neh as a CM would be a very positive impact on the community. My Page! ♥ Where you can talk to me! :3 05:25, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) No Night Chat CMs, as my law holds again. Neh has restored his reputation in my eyes and I think he can make a capable and competent CM. —May the Force be with you, and may Darkness follow you. Oh. I'm the Doctor, by the way.
 * 3) Per above ~Psycho ~
 * 4) He may be quiet, but as long as he watches chat from time to time, he's good enough. I'd rather have a quiet mod who does his job properly than a too-outspoken one who gets himself into trouble. Alemas2005: Mostly Harmless(Talk to me) 10:03, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 5) **Do you remember why he was demoted in the first place...?
 * 6) ***Uh, yes? People change, and I've noticed him keeping himself out of discussions that might cause trouble. Quiet mods aren't any worse than the more talkative ones. If he can keep his views to himself and not affect his decision-making, then why not? Just because he did something wrong in the past doesn't mean he's cursed forever.

 * 7) Kep's comment cemented my moved to Support.
 * 8) Bioniclefanone intended to support but his editor was being funny. —May the Force be with you, and may Darkness follow you. Oh. I'm the Doctor, by the way.

Neutral

 * Hmm, I'm not sure about this. While you do follow policy, I don't feel that you have much of a presence on chat. We already have enough CMs who can handle night chat, and I don't feel strongly enough to support or oppose. -~π~ (talk) 05:13, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) I think it's just too soon slizerguy
 * 2) I dont pay attention to your behavior in chat soooo ~ KiraNotKirac
 * 3) Don't really know him. Dark Yada (talk) 07:45, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 4) Like the others said, I really just don't know you that well.  And per the below. Michaelyoda (talk)
 * 5) Per slice. -AP
 * 6) I agree with the Supports, and am leaning that way. And I believe he won't make the same mistakes again, but I desire to mull over this a bit longer.  Moved to Support.
 * 7) I don't know you well enough to say. LegoWebby101
 * 8) I simply haven't seen you participate in chat whenever I've been on. I can't accurately judge your behavior on chat aside from seeing the comments here, and I won't go off those to oppose, but I also am not inclined to support. †hę Djøkøvïϛ Fån

Oppose

 * 1) Though I haven't seen any bad behavior since your demotion. I'm just not 100 percent sure if I can trust you still. you have seemed to improved a lot, but I haven't really seen anything from you since my return that makes me want you as a moderator, even though I haven't seen any bad behavior either, and because of the past I am very hesitant. Sorry.   Colonel Roy Mustang    (talk) 05:17, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) You were demoted for a reason, and maybe it's my inactivity, but since you came back you've done nothing to show you've changed. You're just quiet now, which isn't a good characteristic for a mod. ~ Fort
 * 3) Per everyone else, plus he's recently tried too hard to enforce the policy and caused more trouble than necessary.
 * 4) No. And not because you were demoted before. Since you've come back to chat, at least what I saw before I left, you have done nothing deserving of rights. In fact, it seemed like you wouldn't say anything in main except for a random comment or a jab at the current mods. So no.  The Double Devil (talk) 09:35, October 11, 2015 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose. You were demoted for a reason, and even if that weren't the case, Izzy said it best: you don't do anything in chat except remain afk and occasionally insult the current state of the wiki. ~Drace Nines, the trash who still can't figure out how to set a signature~
 * 6) Strong oppose, you were demoted for good reason and you have not shown any signs that you've improved, in fact you hardly say anything at all on chat. Also, per above.

Comments

 * "You were demoted for a reason and have shown no signs you've improved"/"You hardly say anything on chat." — I was blocked for a total of what, between six to eight months for inappropriate behavior, and banned God knows how many times, but you'd still consider me a better candidate than him? He was demoted for some offensive comments, and so far, I haven't sen him repeat those comments. In fact, he's been pretty quiet, not troublesome at all. I'd say it's a large improvement. To add on to that, I've seen lots of mods who rarely say anything on main. Does this mean they aren't good at their job? They don't display mod-like behavior? Clearly not. —May the Force be with you, and may Darkness follow you. Oh. I'm the Doctor, by the way.
 * "I was blocked for a total of what, between six to eight months for inappropriate behavior, and banned God knows how many times, but you'd still consider me a better candidate than him?" Where was this implied?? And FTR I currently see neither of you as suitable for CM.
 * Maybe you don't now, but at other times you did, and other people who oppose may still. —May the Force be with you, and may Darkness follow you. Oh. I'm the Doctor, by the way.
