Kronoz got like 6 votes randomly. No idea where that came from at all honestly. Especially since while some people were messaging me they said they really didnt trust him, but whatever. My votes were not random, rather then messaging the veterans who I know don't trust me fully yet, I messaged newer posters on Reality Skanks, and pitched my ideas to them. Gratefully, they liked my campaign the best and voted in my favor.

Raheem's campaign wasn't bad. But his intro was pretty bare. he just told us his name, not really about him.
He said this "I have worked hard to get here and plan on working even harder to push myself forward and prove myself to the community." I found that to be untruthful since he really didnt even try very much until he got eliminated.
His "Why I Should Be Your Moderator" Section was pretty accurate but it seems like it was the skeleton of an outline and not very developed.
His "What I Can Do To Push The Community Forward" Had some pretty good ideas in it aide from "Something else that I am thinking about, not quite sure how it will work, though." I didnt really see the point in adding that and it looked like he just wanted to add another bit of info, even though it was empty.
Fun and Games on his campaign looked pretty interesting, but hosting a message board game shouldnt qualify as a valid reason to be voted for a mod. Then Clay and JoshPloof would be mods by now.
The Elite Idea, however was very interesting, i'll give him that.
It seems his points pretty accurate and truthful aside from some irrelevant bits and the one lie about him working hard.

Well, I for one, didn't vote "based on popularity" I voted based on who I would feel the most comfortable with having access to private info. Contrary to what you may think. Moderators do not have access to private information. Being someone who has dealt with proboards before, I know the behind the scenes functions. The only "private information" available is your email (which you may choose to keep hidden), your ip address, your gender, and age.

This was actually very strategic. The sad part about it is they are most likely people who won't be very active and don't really care one way or another. JMHO. K...I'll shut up now.

Tara, now that your here, i'm just wondering, does it matter to you that Raheem didnt even really care about the competition until he was eliminated? I'm not attacking or anything just curious bc that really bothers me.

I do believe that JRocks campaign was honest and truthful.
However, I do not believe that it deserved a vote at all. The only thing that I believe it offered to the community was that he bought the domain for Reality Skanks. I commend him for that, but what else is he going to do in the future to help better the community? Well, I took a look at his campaign speech and saw nothing whatsoever. He claims that he would do "anything and everything" that is asked of him.
Okay, well what if the community does not ask for anything? What if the admins/mods are absent and don't leave a note for him. This just shows that he has nothing ready for the community at all, he won't do something until he is asked and he lacks ideas. There was not one idea thrown out there that made him unique in any way, shape or form.
I worry that if JRocks were to become a mod, based off of his campaign, he will sit there like a [b[]dumb duck[/b] waiting for his mother (the Admin/Mods) to give him something to do. This concludes that the guy is obviously either lazy or lacks any kind of drive for himself.
The campaign was colorful, but it lacked showmanship and creativity. It lacked determination, drive, self-motivation. Once
In fact, the only reason why JRocks has probably made it this far was because he was asked to (the challenges that were given to him). This is why his campaign sucked, imo.
Sorry, just gotta be real.

For someone who speaks of drive, and being lazy its funny how you didnt even give a damn about this comp until after you went home. not to mention you were late to more than half the episodes and some you never even signed in. Were you even here? i forgot you were a contestant until you got eliminated and returned.
