It looks like I have to film out THIS. What the heck should I say? What could my resume possibly tell them about why I'd make a good moderator, I have a lot of things to be on it but nothing related to moderating fan-tribute-sites-created-by-the-subject!
So does anyone know why I'd make a good moderator? I'm mainly submitting because if I don't that'd automatically give that skeever twjaniak a free oportunity to finally get rid of me. At least by submitting this ridiculous resume he'll need to give me an excuse to my face when he most likely lets me go.
Phorum post-
Twjaniak: "The LG15 production team is now accepting applications for forum and chatroom moderators. Potential and current moderators should send a resume and a brief summary of why they feel they would make a good moderator to miles@lonelygirl15.com.
Thank you cooperation and participation.
-- The Lonelygirl15 Production Team"

as the dauntless dean, you offer a fair and honest perspective to the whole lg15 entity. Loving dissent is essential to a strong and thoughtful project.

Hye,
I would address any issues of being critical, at times, head on. In the "real world", this would be the technique to use for a real life job application. Hit them up front, in your own language, with this facet of your fandom and diffuse the issue. Segue to the more positive points, and these are many.
This does reek of gerrymandering, but not surprising given the history of these folks.

call me a wimp, but i would public avoid references to twjaniak as a "skeever" during the hiring process. but actually, that is a large part of your charm. you love to engage, never truly mean harm, and are one of bree's most enthusiastic fans. you just don't fan wank and try to turn what is crap into gold.
---
on the nuts and bolts level, you have an encyclopedic knowledge of lg15. that is important in moderating a subject specific board.

might help to refrain from referring to Miles' contributions as "filth"

Is this a really high paying position or does it mean you get to have the cool blue stars? Because if it means you get to have the realy cool blue stras, well, then you better try really really hard to keep your job. What in the world would posses them (whoever them) is to boot you? Your "resume" is on every page of this site and it is indeed impressive. Indulge me here for a minute? I grew up in a large blue collar Irish Catholic family. Attendence to the evening meal was mandatory and almost always the same. Mom would bring the meal from the kitchen Dad carved the meat As soon as eeveryone was served my old man would say something totally inflamatory concerning the issues of the day. (It wasn't hard to get a fire started especially during the Nixon administration). We'd argue through dinner and soemtimes longer. By the time I got to college my philosophy and symbolic logic classes were a breeze. It was great and I still hold a pretty good edge wehn it matters . My point? Marx called it the "dialectic", The truth that emerges the the big heap of detritus produced from careful examination of the facts and falsehoods. ok I'm "all hopped up on goofballs" and suffering from my DDS so I'm probably rambling incoherently. Probably the best thing is to tell them to shove it if all they want is a LG lackey. Get a job driving a cab and take the truth of LG15 to the people.  What the hell is wrong with those filthy skeevers anyway |

twjaniak is definitely a skeezer. I sense a weird sexual vibe between him and Iris2009. Please let me know if this is an inappropriate post and I will remove it, but I'm just putting that out there after I witnessed Iris2009 calling skeezer "sir" in a chatroom last night. Gives me the heebie jeebies.

I like Slainte's perspective also Hye. You are who you are and we wouldn't have you any other way!
It's really up to you to decide your fate with these people, I personally don't think it is worth compromising any of your views to satiate that crowd's idea of what a mod should be. These views have taken a long time for you to develop and are yours to own.
On a more funny note, SpacieGirl (and her key) have returned to the phorum so that she can "kill some people". Classic phorum character returns!

So does anyone know why I'd make a good moderator? I'm mainly submitting because if I don't that'd automatically give that skeever twjaniak a free oportunity to finally get rid of me. I wouldn't get rid of you, the Dauntless Dean, that would be an outrage to the LG15 community, besides I don't have that level of power on the site-- well, technically I do but I wouldn't do that to you.  Miles asked for resumes because he wants to better know, on a personal level, the people he gets to help out on the website. I got the impression from his request that all the long time forums mods would remain, he simply wanted to be more familiar with them. Skeever?  That makes baby Jesus cry.  |

Thanks for the explanation! I continued asking you what exactly this whole thing was about just today, because I was nervous, so I'm glad it's cleared up.
Haha well I wanted to use a LG-esque word, and skeever seemed good because it was a take-off on skeeter. Kind of.
I wouldn't DARE stoop to the level of calling you... dare I say... a WANKER!
Now go dry baby Jesus's tears for me RickyBobbyiak!
