Griff
Bluelighter
As I'm sure many of you have noticed, I've been noticeably absent in here for the last week or so. You might even say that I've been delinquent in my duties/role as a amateur councilor and moderator in TDS.
'twas an experiment of work VS. Bluelight, preceeding yet another "Get your shit done, or you're fired" talk from yet another of my bosses.
I stopped using bluelight at work for the last week, and amazingly, I've acomplished more work in the last 5 days, then I have in the last 5 months (honest assessment).
I'd like to continue this present spurt of work, yet I don't want TDS to suffer for it. So... I'm resigning my spots in here and in the FAQ forum. I'd like my spot (in here) to go to a bluelighter who hasn't had the chance to be a mod before.
This is a semi-permanent removal. The mod who replaces me is free to keep his/her spot as long as he/she wishes to hold it. However, there may come a day when I can once again resume my duties as a TDS mod. At that point, I'll wait until another mod decides that they can't fulfill their duties in here. (The mods in TDS should be the most active repliers) Any way, once someone voluntarily ops out of their spot, and I feel like I can adiquately jump back into my previous prolific posting habbits, I'd like first stab at the spot. (ie someone gives up a spot, I ask for it, I get it)
I know this is a bit much to ask for, and when (and if) the time comes, I leave the final decision up to the current 3 mods, the overseeing admin (currently skydancer) and the departing mod.
Anyway, on to the selection process...
Please nominate the TDS bluelighter whom you most like, trust, respect, and who gives the best advice (not much to ask for is it?) Self nomination is encouraged, if you think that you are best qualified.
Once the nominations are in, please chime in with reasons why you think that you/your candidate would be the best person for the job.
If you're nominated, and do not wish the responsiblity, please opt out of the process as soon as possible.
Finale decision on my replacement lies in the hands of the other 3 moderators, and skydancer. I'll of course, throw my opinion out there once we get a good slew of candidates.
TDS was my brainchild, and I still consider it my baby, but it would be irresponsible for me to be a lazy mod, as I have previously been. I'll still be a part of this forum, as much as possible, but I need time for myself as well.
Thanks for the memories,
Craig.
