...by your logic, JRV, Emanuel shouldn't be an admin since he wasn't here in 2009. And he's the best admin we've ever had; you said so yourself.
Well, that ^ just sounds rude. I may not have joined until recently, but I have read the new and old forums thoroughly, so I am no completely ignorant... and since I plan to stay a member of the forum, I think that I ought to have some input on a decision such as this. Assuming that the higher-ups @ Algoryx pay attention to the opinions of the forum members when choosing mods.
And the thread that I was referencing was Chronos for president.
Emanuel WORKS at Algoryx. He's a paid employee. All employees that frequent the forums are automatically admins. The only people who have ever been appointed who weren't admins, however, were long time community members.
And how long is long enough? Okay, I've never looked at more than a few topics on the old forums... And does this mean that non-Algoryx-people can't be admins? Or re you just confusing my brain with multiple meanings of the word "admin"?
The only people who have ever been promoted joined the old forums early 2008. I'm not exactly sure what their parameters are, but historically that's how it's been. The only legit MODERATOR(who wasn't an admin) that was ever made was Link0007, and he was promoted soon afterward. So technically, we've never really had any legit moderators, only admins.

Sounds like we have a serious deficiency of mods!

Indeed, my friend. Indeed.
Ah, finally! An agreement!
Now, if only Emanuel, Tatt, or Emil would pick up on this... (in decreasing order of probability)

I'd say Emil has a much better chance of showing up. He's been here a lot (for an admin anyway) lately.

Re: Moderators Needed(By the Community's Request)
Ah, but previous to the recent spike of Emil activity, Emanuel was considerately more active than Tatt or Emil. As JrvUnleashed might've pointed out in the first post in this topic.

True enough.
And as I've said several times before, if anyone approaches me about it, I WILL play Cincinnattus.

Re: Moderators Needed(By the Community's Request)
Well I know that when I sent my petition to Emil is when we got Emanuel, and that took about two weeks. Since this is a bit harder than actually hiring someone (for all they know, we could all go power-hungry or pull a Zuriki, and they would only be able to ban us, which we can avoid), I expect it to take a bit longer.
I've noticed the spam has gone down though, so that may be why, too.

Re: Moderators Needed(By the Community's Request)
What do you mean when you say...
I've actually wondered about Zuriki for quite some time now.
I guess they made somebody on the old Phun forum a mod/admin, and he went nuts?
And are you also trying to say that it usually takes about two weeks for the admins to respond?
And what are you trying to imply about a drop in spam?

He horribly screwed with the forum, basically deleting most of it and changing the rest to simply "Off Topic." I wasn't there for it but I joined shortly afterwards. He/she hasn't been seen since.

Ah, thank you. That clears up so many things...

Probably because he knew what happened and was fully ready and willing to answer.
And I've been thinking...
I would thank that the Admin Department would at least tell us it they are working on something, such as selecting new mods. This, I think, is considerably more important than many other Admin Projects.
And I also randomly thought that we, the Normal Users, should hold an election amongst ourselves to recommend who might make a good mod.

No...
But then again, a quick-ish search tells me that it's because I never go to the Living Room.
And if it's Jrv, Chronos, or TheWonkits, I vote Chronos.
Not Jrv because his chronic spazzing makes me nervous,
And not TheWonkits because I have no idea who he is.

I'm pretty sure Chronos is simply a spazzier version of JRV. I also don't think that is a word.

Poor Jrv.
Millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. Something terrible has happened.
