    Largely to ensure a healthy field of candidates, and also because I do have the time, I'll throw my hat in. I doubt a campaign appeal would be of any use at this time.

    hmm, just a question, why does world events need three mods whilst many forums lack a single mod... unless something's happened to CC. did you kill him???

    CC has less time to spend, and has requested to drop his
    mod status in WE&P. He will remain the moderator fo SciFi.

    :m: Peace.

    Count me in, I consider my self very neutral (in that politics is nothing but corruption and chaos for me.) you can be what ever side you want but once you start disrespecting other of diffrent view points I get angry.

    The political campaigns have already started before all nominations are in...

    That should promise a good election year on sciforum.

    Undecided,

    I'm not impugning your ability to mod impartially and fairly in any way, but isn't the WE&P forums the forums in which you are most active? I know that Coffee has always tried not to post in WE&P as a regular poster, can you accept not being able to speak your mind on a daily basis? Or will you split your persona between the moderator you and the poster you?

    I wouldn't mind being the mod of the economics and history section.

    Actively posting in a forum does not preclude you from being a mod.
    A moderator can express his/her opinions as often as they would like.

    :m: Peace.

    But I've learned, in WE&P, that it helps. By not posting, the natives aren't as pissed at you. You can still be a mod and post, but it helps not to.

    No problem with me, politics and world events has me very dishearten.

    I noticed tiassa is on the ballot, no chance for any of the rest of us now, in the last 3 races the winner was always a existing moderator.

    spuriousmonkey,

    But with betting odds of 1:1 you will earn no return.
