Title: Need A Moderator For This Forum
Post by: HSDEMONZ on June 11, 2005, 11:43:00 AM
I need at least one moderator for this forum.

If there is someone you feel deserving, please post their name here, and a few sentances why.

Do Not Vote for Yourself!

Submissions from accounts less than a month old will be summarily dismissed and ignored.

I may add and accept more than one name from the submission.. or none at all at my descretion.

Since I don't frequent this forum, someone should PM me in a weeks time so I can look at the results.

Thanks.

I'll second brienj if he's up for it. I know him mostly from ninjahacker, but he is also very active in a variety of threads here, and seems like a decent guy. My two cents.

Thanks for the votes, but I would have to decline on that.  I have enough work being a moderator at the other sites that I am a moderator.  I vote for yardguy or cypher.  smile.gif

I nominate MrJKwik.  He runs an excellent site at www.recon2mods.com and he is contributing to the mod scene here everyday.  He seems to have the interest needed in the subject matter to be a good mod and doesn't limit himself to one game/format.  I think he is your best choice.

My Nominees:  tongue.gif

BrienJ: This guy is one of the greats of gamesave hacking. This guy has been 1 of (3-4) people with the knowledge to calculate Auth Key's required to save games which is a great feat. He also has put a great effort into helping with forum moderation and research at the XBOX-Saves.com forum.. Definately a good choice even though he passed on the opportunity.

Roofus: Again, another with the sacred knowledge of finding Auth Keys. A very talented programmer and has done his rounds of the Game Hacking scene. I'm sure everyone's heard of him by now.  biggrin.gif

SniperKil: All around good guy and knows how to get shit taken care of. If someone's getting out of hand, He'll take care of it.  laugh.gif Very knowledgable as well.

it's not about the quantity of votes. It's the details.

not sure that hs was incinuating that either one wasn't fit.  seems he was more or less saying that the numbers didnt matter.  just what was said about them, or what he knows of them.

personally, i dont think a mod needs to be the "most helpful" guy, though thats always a plus.  pretty much a mods job is to police the forum, make sure everything is legal and good, everyone remains on topic, and no one gets out of line. and a good attitude about it is always a plus.

with that, remember, my vote went to roofus.  i'm just saying being "helpful" isn't part of the "duties".  they do a good job at being helpful already.

Well, with the latest problems erupting on the scene with Ninjahacker, Halo 2, and the now infamous "Hot Coffee" mod plus all the "worrying" about LIVE hacking for cheating, this forum needs to be policed or other game developers will get pissed off.  It's not all about who can hack what and how fast they can release it.  The point of having a forum moderator is not to help the scene hack and release mods.  It is to make sure that the forum stays on subject and to keep unneccessary posts off of the board.

MrJkwik has more times than not helped someone with problems they have had and kept topics on subject without trying to gain credit for anything.  This is why I nominated him and he has re-inforced my thoughts as to why he would be good for this forum.  He seems to be mainly interested in the health of the forum while helping people at the same time.

My vote remains with MrJKwik because he seems very knowledgeable.  He is literate and legible with his posts and can keep things on subject while filtering out the discrepancies.  This seems like a strange push for a forum moderator, but I do not want to lose this forum because someone is more interested in releasing a "controversial" mod than keeping this place sacred.  We need someone that will be more interested in monitoring the forum than gaining credit for releases and that's why I believe we need MrJKwik here.

This is too important to gamble our chances of losing this forum on the choice of "hacking" intelligence over forum rules.
