Well here is the thing, we have been giving the same people staff positions and Graal Kingdoms is not looking to good as far as role-playing goes. We have these GK staff folks making bogus items such as the “Mail of Might.” If we allow someone out of this circle of people then there is a good chance for somebody to improve the role-playing atmosphere. Chris is a staff member already but they still want to nominate him for another staff position. Let him focus on forest, while another person who doesn’t have any other staff obligations to focus on the role-playing. There can possibly be a real good administrator out there that we won’t find out unless we allow some other folks who have never had the opportunity.

Your not, you are mostly arguing with me about my reasons for becoming a Role-playing Administrator rather then listing other prospective RP Administrators and listing the reasons why they would be a good role-playing administrator. I really don’t know why you are so concerned when you don’t role-playing in Kingdoms. (I don’t care about your reasons for not role-playing)

In an indirect fashion, yes. But such a claim doesn't help your case until you show that the someone is you.
It’s not about popularity contest; I was using those two to show my evidence as a good role-player. Of course you wouldn’t know that I’m a good role-player because you’re not currently in the role-playing community. If you ever did role-play then it must have been something you did every once in awhile. My evidence is not sufficient for you because you don’t role-play in Graal Kingdoms and I really don’t remember seeing you role-play in Graal2001. I don’t need to provide any more extensive evidence for my qualification besides my reputation in the role-playing community. You see, those who are involved in role-playing know me. As a result, my reputation is sufficient enough to provide evidence of a qualified person to be a role-playing administrator.

I’m not you; I don’t know why you picked me or picked any other person from other threads to argue with.

Ha-ha, real funny, I’m laughing my ass off too.

It’s just my natural reaction in response to someone who wishes to contend with me. However, I don’t enjoy prolonging an argument because they are very time consuming. I know for you it’s something of a mental sport which you take part in pleasure. However, since you want to drag it on so be it.

Why, because the majority of people make good roleplaying admin candidates? You're assuming that we have some means for evaluating a person's competence and reliability, and if do then we can already eliminate the bad apples. If we don't, how do we know that the new person won't be a hundred times worse?

So now you're saying it's impossible to know how good somebody will be until they've been given the "goodies"?

Of the eight paragraphs in my previous post:

3 discussed the general principles of staff selection without any reference to you
2 challenged your claims of suitability
3 addressed the attacks you made on my character

Two out of eight doesn't seem to qualify as "mostly".

In any case, if your self-nomination was on-topic then so are my comments thereon.

I may not play Kingdoms, but I do want to see Graal prosper. Weak administrators don't much help that goal.

So the only reason somebody could vote for you is that you're a good roleplayer? And if somebody else got more votes, it would be logical to assume that they're better?

My personal experience is pretty much irrelevant here. I merely asked if you could present any substantial evidence for your claim, and it seems that you cannot.

And yet you seem perfectly comfortable in telling me my reasons for posting here. One moment you can read my mind, the next you can't?

Congratulations on your lack of self-control. It must be a fantastic trait for an administrator to possess.
