New moderator candidate

Post by *white » 2012-04-02, 07:44 UTC

Dear users of this forum.

I would like to become moderator of the English forums. Christian Ghisler has given me his approval and asked me to write a short note here to announce my candidacy and ask whether there are any objections.

So if you disapprove of my candidacy in any way, please raise your voice.

Best regards,
White

That is great! Cheers.

White,

+1, because

- You're around for a long time and have extensive TC knowledge
- You're Dutch so you know the 'poldermodel', which is very suitable for moderation issues

Regards, EricB

No objections here.

An honest "Welcome" to you, even though I'm not Dutch

Hello, white.

You have been a forum member for the past 9 years. You have looked after the English Total Commander WIKI for quite a while. So definitely no objections from my side.

Cheers,
Karl

Ok, but what the hell is a "poldermodel"?
Just for the benefit of us non-Netherlandish people...

No objections.
Everyone who does this job (and i guess you will do a good job) has my respect.

It has been 1 week now since you posted your application, and there have been no objections - to the contrary.

Therefore I'm happy to give you moderator status in all TC forums now. Thanks very much for your help!
