deadly7

deadly7 can't be elected to office though.  He's foreign.  That's why Sidoh got the spot.

<iago> He is unarmed
<Hitmen> he has no arms?!

on AIM with a drunk mythix:
(00:50:05) Mythix: Deadly
(00:50:11) Mythix: I'm going to fuck that red dot out of your head.
(00:50:15) Mythix: with my nine

I just dropped out because I didn't see any point in running.  It was obvious who was going to win.
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

I generally like to see every member run, but some are chickens :)
Or don't have the time to commit/desire to be a leader at the moment ;)

Yeah, half the active clan ran:

    * CrAz3D
    * dark_drake
    * deadly7
    * GameSnake
    * iago
    * Joe
    * MyndFyre
    * Quik
    * Sidoh
    * Tuberload

WoW has taken away my attention from the forums :P I cannot run while this still remains a true statement.

Joe

Quote from: Camel on June 09, 2009, 04:12:23 PMI'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.


Warrior

I only run when I'm sure that in the event that I get elected I can fufill my duties. Last time I didn't do so hot when my PC got messed.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

exactly what I thought.  There is no way I could do that right now, especially when school starts :P

iago

You guys make it seem like running the clan is this big time-consuming job.  I have news for you: it's not (usually).

The things I actually do:

- Try to help members resolve disputes
- Consider new members
- Ban problematic people (Usually somebody beats me to it)
- Create boards for people (I usually make Sidoh do that)
- Make fun of people on the secret leaders-only board (kidding)
- Updates for the server (that's more because I run the server than because I'm a leader -- even if I wasn't leader I'd still do it)

As you can see, there isn't much to it, really.  Disputes are rare, new members are rare, problems are rare, and new boards are rare.  All I'm really needed for is to have a presence. 


Newby

Replace "make fun of people" with "massive eOrgies" and that's basically what the leader forum is like.

What iago said. Plus handling voting, which, when multiple members are attempting to join, can be a pain in the ass more than anything.

That's what being a figurehead is like. >:D

Though I am glad that warrior/towelie would not run if they knew they couldn't be active; I'd like leaders to be active enough to at least hop on once or twice a day. That way, if a member has a problem and PMs a leader, the leader can respond at least within 24 hours.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.
