Brickipedia:Requests for Chat Moderator

Requests: Chat Moderator - Administrator - Bureaucrat - Rollback and Patroller

This is Brickipedia's requests for chat moderator page, on which any user may request chat moderator rights. Chat moderators have the ability to kick and ban users from chat who are being disruptive.

If you are considering nominating yourself for chat moderator, please read through the checklist to make sure that you meet the criteria.

To file a request, place the following code under the "current requests" header, above any existing requests.

===replace this with your username===
{{Rfr/1|replace this with your username}}
replace this with a brief paragraph about why you want to be nominated. ~~~~

Requests made on this page are a vote, meaning that if they achieve at least 80% support then they will be closed as successful. Opposers must provide reasons for opposing. Most requests last for around a week, unless there is clear consensus either way after a short period of time.

If a user has been nominated for chat moderator before, add 2 to the end of the topic header. For users with multiple requests, add the respective number of the request. It is also considered good practice to link to previous requests for rights when nominating a user.

I am very mature on chat, have made 100+ Mainspace edits, and know what goes on around here (Maybe a little TOO much :P). There is nothing much else to say. So I am going to end it here. Thorin, At your service! 04:23, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

Support

He is on chat a lot, and he has been there without any moderators when there has been a vandal. I think that these rights would be very useful for him. Full Support. –Agent Charge Are you in? 06:11, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
The fact that he reads the logs makes me feel he is ready for any situation that could appear on chat. Per charge, Full Support -LazerzSoH --- Destroy, Destroy, Exterminate!
If you aren't trying to hide anything, then him reading the logs is fine

Neutral

I don't know. On one hand, he seems mature and has encountered spammers before. But on the other, he seems to want the position of Chat Mod very, very badly, more than most users. When told he had to make 100 mainspace edits before requesting again, he went around making one word edits that, while not bad, weren't that good either. He made the edits solely for the purpose of achieving Chat mod, it seems, as he previously stated that he "probably won't edit the wiki for a long time". There's also something else that makes me uneasy. I don't know what it is and I could be completely wrong, but it's just a gut feeling. So...yeah.

I don't want mod rights THAT bad, but I think I deserve them. If I wanted to have them bad I would probably request them daily. Thorin, At your service! 16:38, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
I'm not sure on how to conflict and cross my previous support but Per Jeyo. If anyone can help show me the special thing that does that, please do. I'd like to talk to this user more.-LazerzSoH --- Destroy, Destroy, Exterminate!

Oppose

I already feel stalked when he reads every log of chat, which he says he's reading them all the time. For a MODERATOR to read the log every day, that just freaks the crap out of me.

Aldendan Knight Forever Knight Time! the question is: is or is not

Why should it? There isn't anything wrong with it, technically.

~~Jeyo~~ Lord Vladek Talk The Forge 04:28, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, he can read them, but for him to shout it out loud is kind of making me feel stalked.

Aldendan Knight Forever Knight Time! the question is: is or is not

So a non-mod can read the logs every day, but as soon as they become a moderator, that is just wrong. ~ CJC 11:30, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
No, he can read it, but he doesn't need to shout it out loud in chat.

Aldendan Knight Forever Knight Time! the question is: is or is not

I really think the user needs more time here. I know there isn't anything wrong with it - but it is really odd that he reads logs and enjoys them, I just don't like him reading stuff from before he joined. A month or two, and I'd probably support. --Czech 06:41, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
No. Just no. especially after he stalked me. Irnakk Talk And the Empire will be defeated by Ewoks!
Per Czech. -Legoboy 09:28, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
No Because when i see him he is on the Chat for maybe 30 - 60 minutes a day, and most Chat Mods are on 2 - 15 hours a day RaceLord talk, Lord of Nothing

I'm not. It's more like a half hour for me...

Darth henry The Dojo Turtles! 16:14, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

If mods really were on 15 hours a day, That would be sad. Thorin, At your service! 16:45, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

He seems like a kind of nice user but the way he reads the logs and likes to tell us stuff that he shouldn't even know that he's learnt from reading them makes me think that he's not mature enough to be a chat mod, if he were to read the logs and not be creepy about it I might support.

I might have voted support had I not read Jeyo's neutral vote. -N B P 14:40, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

Comments

Really, I don't know whether to scold or laugh at this "stalking" business. He was not stalking you. I read the chat logs often as well, actually. Was he asking for your name or personal info? Because that's what I call stalking, not reading the logs and telling everyone about it.

~~Jeyo~~ Lord Vladek Talk The Forge 07:13, December 27, 2012 (UTC)

I'm laughing because of how terrible these opposes are. Reading chat logs =/= stalking? You all know that whatever you post on chat will end up in the logs, and that anyone can read them. The fact someone is reading them doesn't make them the one at fault. If you are worried about what he might read in the logs, then be more careful about what you post on chat... ~ CJC 11:29, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
NBP actually had a good reason to oppose. Thorin, At your service! 16:39, December 27, 2012 (UTC)
Per Jeyo and CJC. If he specifically went after you and then asked for personal info, that's stalking. -LazerzSoH --- Destroy, Destroy, Exterminate!
