    We have some really funny people on this forum :L .
    But yes some very good candidates for admin would be jonwayne, christot and eternitywarrior. All ew2 regulars as well and the first few to complete ew3 when it came out, contributing much to the forum community with relevant and extremely helpful posts and threads.

    also would be good to have admins from each device os (android, ios, mac, kindle users.)

    Not really, EternityWarrior started a petition against Glu's hackers.......his history is now dirty.

    Its a place where you nominate genuine forums users for admin roles.

    You don't nominate yourself first of all >.>

    And yeah it helps people behave, seen it work on other forums, though it wont have much effect with the amount of hackers at the moment.

    And saabot, you gotta have a clean history. Very few players have that.

    Also gluadmin, thank you for cracking down on the threads.

    Lol demonic
    Clean up your own backyard it was condemend a long time ago
    This changes nothing
    Dont need a title to help someone
    Dont have to ever like you lol
    I've done way more than monitor a playground at recess

    Post script, no offense to the admins this is solely directed at demonic who couldn't keep his mouth shut if it was duchy taped

    Let's get some community nominations started! Ideal person will have/can do the following:

    - A clean history of no flaming, trolling, Glu-bashing, etc.
    - Supportive of other players, helpful and patient with new folks
    - Been a member for over a month and has over 50 posts
    - Will be able to be impartial (no Guild cronyism)
    - Will uphold and act on all forum rules (http://ggnbb.glu.com/showthread.php?110-Glu-Forum-Rules)

    Remember- with great power comes great responsibility.

    Lol, No Glu Bashing!

    Truthfully, if you chose someone that didnt bash glu at least one, I doubt that person would be respected by anyone. Glu has failed the community on multiple occasions and almost everyone who bashes glu is justified in doing so. I understand promoting someone who isnt "out to get glu" and I also understand that once a person becomes a mod, they shouldn't bash glu because they are working under their authority. But promoting someone who has never bashed glu basically means promoting who kisses glu's butt. AKA someone who just wants power.

    I'm not trying to become a mod, nor do I want to, just want to point out that I would not trust any mod that fit that catagory

    Don't know if I would say funny, per se.

    Bottom line, the game has seen some rough patches, and that has shown the true colors of some of those community players that have been nominated or self-nominated.

    The characteristic of a leader isn't that they need to be a disconnected from the issues, but they sure don't need to feed the emotional storms of those issues. A true leader keeps their composure, and exhibits high emotional intelligence (google if you don't know what that means). That is lacking in this community, because in the end, people are taking the issues too personal.

    Arguing and name calling and urging or cussing at Glu to take action, that's not constructive. Gathering the ideas of others, making sure that it puts the game on the right course for everyone--other than themselves--requires the type of selfless character needed.

    If you wouldn't trust someone because they don't take to this forum and bash Glu...that shows a serious lack a maturity. That is this community's biggest challenge.

    Usually, the more replies you have, the more active you are on forums. I'm on all the time, and even do this when im at school if i don't get caught. Of course, since my history is a train wreck, i can't become an admin, but it's people who are as active as me they want to look for.

    And Ultra, I feel obligated to urge you to focus on your school studies. As someone that would be a future generation, unless you want to be making my lunches for a living, take your studies seriously. You don't get to redo this part of your life. Plus, some of your posts aren't helping... :P

    How cool would this be, I would pride myself on being the dirtiest admin to ever administrate a game.
    • Direct line into the programmers (who can probably be bought)
    • Being able to kick Sabbot at any given time for her annoying woman ramblings
    • Banning Moolch… just because… 
    • Spreading false update rumors
    • Instigating forum riots

    Yeah, I’m throwing my name on the ballot, sign me up….

    You started using your powers for good and actually helping people; that means the hate quotient goes down. :)

    Based on some of your n00b rage posts, I'm sure you still have enemies. There just may be fewer of them. :D

    I don't complain.

    And i only swear if someone attacks me or my friends. I have a strong sense of loyalty to them.

    I stopped cussing out Glu for a while though. It gets old, and nothing is being done. And my ring finger is still sore from holding the "shift" button when i did caps spam.

    So shut up.

    If you can recall I am an active EW2 member before I lost my appetite of answering repetitive EW2 questions. And kush snipes already message me about being a moderator when I was an active EW2 member.

    Btw will moderators will get paid? Is being a moderator is like working and getting paid as freelancer?

    Community moderators are entirely volunteers. It works best for those who are already answering lots of questions and want the title/acknowledgement.
