Anyone your suprised hasn't been modded
 
Disclaimer-This thread is in no way affiliated with the staff of Pokecommunity, and shall serve no purpose of suggestion, it is merely to drum up some conversation.

So if there's someone you're suprised hasn't been modded yet (If you think they should be a mod then keep it to yourself) the post it here.
Good day.

/screams

I'm not as active as I was way back when I knew EVERYONE (years ago...)
There were a few people who weren't modded who I thought deserved it. But it's not like just because they deserve it, they're going to get modded. There's got to be a need for it.

So there were people who I thought deserved it, but I understood why they weren't.

Timbjerr September 28th, 2010 11:24 AM

Most of the people that are coming to my mind are either former mods (as in, they've actually been modded before and quit despite being the perfect candidate) or people who are a lot less active than they used to be in the olden days of PC, again despite being perfect candidates otherwise. XD

Donovannj does come to mind for how active and helpful he is in the PTCG forum (I lurk there occasionally), but the forum itself is far too inactive to really merit a moderator. D:

IKR! Donnavanj has been here for a while, she's friendly AND helpful, a supporter, and iirc the TCG section doesn't have a mod, I mean she fits the mod cookie cutter perfectly

alisaie September 28th, 2010 12:17 PM

Before agreeing that Dondon is good to be a mod for that section, perhaps you should get his gender correct? And being a Supporters doesn't have anything to do whether you're qualified to be a Mod or not, BTW.

But I don't disagree that if the TCG ever got active enough, that he should become the Mod. There are several others that I can see becoming a Mod one day as well.

jigglyppuff8 September 28th, 2010 12:22 PM

I've never expected anyone in this forum to become a mod. If anything, it's the people I don't expect who become moderators. Every. Single. Time. Then again, I've only posted in DPPt, HGSS, Japanese Entertainment, and Other Trivia. Also, the people I did expect actually have them right now.

Forever getting modded was almost blatant to me, yuoaman seriously suprised me though.

Charizard★ September 28th, 2010 1:28 PM

Donnie would be a good mod, since he is always around OT and abides by the rules :D IMO

Melody September 28th, 2010 3:53 PM

Well, more often than not when the promotions do happen I'm often pleasantly surprised. A lot of the people I know on PC end up being moderators for some reason. @[email protected]
Sometimes I swear some perverse imp is trying to tease me with all of that, but I'm beyond caring about that to be honest. I'm usually too happy for my newly modded friend to feel any jealousy.

More often than not, the people I see get modded deserve it a hundred thousand times more than I ever deserve it anyways. Just knowing that a friend has made it that far does make me happy enough.

Generally there aren't any current people who haven't been modded that deserve it on such a grand scale that I'm surprised they haven't been modded yet.

However there are a few people who took a long time to be modded, Forever is one of them. I honestly expected her to be modded back in 2008, and she really and truly deserved it. Her capricious personality (at that time) would have been a perfect fit for several sections in need of a moderator at that time. Though I have no issue with the mods appointed for those sections at that time, I did feel as if the obvious candidate was overlooked just because she might have been overqualified in some way. XD

poopnoodle September 28th, 2010 3:58 PM

i've been thinking donovannj for awhile now, too. rational, intelligent, friendly to all- i have no doubt he'd make a well-contributing and competent moderator, and i've felt that way for a long time.

Kevin September 28th, 2010 4:17 PM

Shivi... You know who I'm thinking about don't you? Fuyuhiko!! For real, he needs to get modded soon -_- Nice, good quality posts, and looks staff material. =3 xDD

PlatinumDude September 28th, 2010 4:44 PM

I'm thinking that Charizard (star) should be deserving of mod status. I see him/her in the Japanese Entertainment section and he/she seems to know a lot about anime/manga.

Ho-Oh September 28th, 2010 4:53 PM

Donavannj. I even dreamed he got modded in TCG last night. XD

[ let's just ignore the fact that I've dreamed people got modded for the last three nights... ]

Planetes. September 28th, 2010 4:53 PM

nice to see we got off the subject of one particular person, very good choices everyone.
I really think Myyrhman should be modded in the challenge section as well.

Captain Hobo. September 28th, 2010 5:22 PM

I have said this before I think Charizard sould get modded.

He loves this forum so much. XD

Tribal Ebony September 28th, 2010 5:41 PM

You get a lot of people these days complaining about mods, saying they think they are the best. Mods are here at the pokecommunity to ensure it is safe and people arent mean to others. Even so, people want to become mods because they think its cool, not because they want to help pokecommunity. But there are some people who I think should be modded, yes.

Amaruuk September 28th, 2010 5:45 PM

I never thought about mods much till maybe a couple months ago. That was when I began to think things like "I bet the main Art Gallery wouldn't be as dead if it had a mod" and "if it did get a mod I bet Ana would be the perfect one for the job." Then, only a few weeks ago both of those thoughts came true :3

The aren't complaining thier complimenting. However, some times they do go over the top. XD

I think Dovannj wshould be modded, as well as Charizard -star, since they are both really helpful, good quality posting members. If you read the FAQ it mentions nothing about only supporters becoming mods or members with a high post counts. I have seen some moderators who aren't supporters nor have even up to 1000 posts/ It just goes to show, how here everyone is respected and valued not matter what tier, donator/non-donator, moderator, Admin ect. Also Forever took quite awhile to be modded but everyone knew she was one day going to be. And can't forget about Tara! :D

Nick September 28th, 2010 6:09 PM

I think there are a lot of people who deserve to be modded - and a lot of people who stand out for various forums to do so - but there's more to getting modded than deserving a position. There needs to be a position available for him or her for anything to happen.

esperance September 28th, 2010 6:16 PM


Myself!


Haha, just kidding, but I feel there are quite a few people who should be modded, but aren't.

I have to agree. Charizard☆ is very active and is kind and helpful. Fits the postiton perfectly.

I'm honestly surprised that there are actually a few people that haven't been modded. Magmaruby and Aquasapphire is super active in the Black/White and Heart Gold/Soul Silver boards. He could be a mod for those, but I haven't seen his habits yet. Another few I thought of is Hackmew. He is very knowledgeable in Rom Hacking. Even though he isn't always active, he has made good things happen, like the Script Help thread, the multitude of Tools he makes and the research he does for all of us. He should definately be a candidate.

One thing I hate is when mods loose the position, or quit, or temporarily leave it. Like Spherical Ice not being a mod anymore? I never realized it until a month ago. And when Hiroshi Sotomura wasn't red? I thought that was absolutely insasne! He is by far the most helpful and kind person here. He helps with problems you have, and makes sure the site is safe. When he wasn't red for those few days, that was not funny.

spherical ice was a mod?
lol, I haven't heard of hackmew though.

Woah, you haven't heard of Hackmew? Do you ROM hack? He made the tools such as XSE and A-Ptch!

I dunno who this Donavannj is! But I know Hackmew. Yay for me.

インフェルノの津波 September 29th, 2010 7:24 PM

I WOULD say that I would become a Mod of this site, because I stalk this topic I have a lot of good ideas and I think that I can shoot down ones that aren't.

But then again, I know 1 of 2 things that can go wrong:

SOMEONE ELSE WILL TAKE MY PLACE

OR

I GO CRAZY BECAUSE THERE IS SO MANY THREADS IN HERE /JK JK. Not really, OVP is reaaaly easy to Mod, I can tell.

I don't mean to minimod, or make stupid puns like the aforementioned, but there's already a thread for answers like that called "I asked to be a mod", js.

Also, I think Timbjerr would make a pretty good mod.

Hiche.. September 30th, 2010 11:27 AM

Me. Really.

I used to wonder why some people in the ROM hacking section did not get modded, yet. Hackmew is one. I don't know if he/she were a moderator before or asked not to be one, but I always thought he deserved it the most in that section.

I believe that section has 3 mods, more than most of the other topics, so that would be why.

Hiche.. September 30th, 2010 11:38 AM

Two years ago, there were only 2 moderators, and one of them always changed, in a way. Hackmew was active a lot back then and he made tools, helped people a lot.. but now he isn't. So, yeah, I was talking about during 2008, not now.

インフェルノの津波 October 10th, 2010 2:26 AM

People you think should be Mods
 
This isn't a Mod judging thread, trust me. Just want to see who you think should be Mod, or Mod again.

I think I should be Moderator of this section of course, I'll do my little part around here and make sure nothing goes wrong, which never happens here. I'll obviously do a good job, so why aren't I Mod yet, huh? ANSWER THAT, YOU- AdvancedK47 should be Mod of Pokemon Anime, (unless he already is) cause he knows a lot about that section and would do a good job.

Another guy would be Pachy for maybe Other Chat, I don't know. All I know is he gives good responses, then again there are other guys...

So yeah you?

Charizard★ October 10th, 2010 4:21 AM

Donnie (for OT)- He spends a LOT of time there and abides by the rules :D

And thats all I can think of for now.

Captain Fabio October 10th, 2010 5:22 AM

I am nearly sure this is going to be closed...

Vendak. Because he is a bro and would be decent.

PlatinumDude October 10th, 2010 6:36 AM

Charizard (star) in the Japanese Entertainment section; he/she knows a lot about anime/manga. Also, Verkinova for Pokemon anime.

Surigamaru October 10th, 2010 6:39 AM

I'm pretty sure I saw this a couple or so pages back..Oh well.

From what I saw so far, Jordan or jigglyppuff8 would make good moderators in the JE section. Also, the one that made this thread; he/she posts a lot and has many threads here. And THAT WONDERFUL PIXY GUY, well, everywhere, lol. I see him in a lot of places.

Aquacorde October 10th, 2010 7:42 AM

I think that just because someone posts everywhere does not mean they would do well as a mod. Just sayin'.

I really believe Pachy would do well to mod CQ&F (if a mod were ever needed there) or OC, but he has stated that he does not want to mod. Dondon I could see in OT or OC, Jordan or Jiggly in JE, AdvancedK47 in Pokemon Anime, and TheSmartOne in NU/W.

Angelique October 10th, 2010 8:09 AM

Some of these nominations make me cringe. The only few I would support would be... Jordan or jigglypuff8, from what I have sporadically seen. I would enjoy seeing Wolflare as S&M mod, if that section needed the help. However, I am content with the current staff members.
