No way, he's also implicated in the doxxing scandal, not to mention being an accessory and associate of that ex-mod of ours

We need someone untouched by all this. There's some idiot whining in QCS about becoming our mod, how about him?

It doesn't matter who it is, doxxing is against the rules on SA.

Maybe link me some profiles or give full names or something, because I do not know any of the SC forum regulars.

It was a giant post with Facebook profile links and so forth, which is, again, against the rules. Very much so.

I'd be a horrible mod. I would promise to make a lot of unfair rulings. Like probating Moma, just because.

We should probably have a mod who's life expectancy can't be measured using an egg timer.

Honestly, most of the regulars here would make bad mods. Pgabz would be alright, but they don't seem that active and probably wouldn't want to do it. Beer is probably the only other one that follows along but doesn't engage the drama too much. I would probably fall in the same boat too, but I know better than to want to mod this nightmare.

What if we get a really low-quality egg timer? One that looks fancy? That would be entirely thematically appropriate and also let us have Ben around for what short while he lasts.

Hi everyone, this is just a quick reminder that doxxing people and internet detective bullshit, including posting people's Facebook pages and making giant insane posts where you track down their internet presence, is extremely against the rules. I generally don't get involved with the SC forum, but yeah. Seriously. Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye on this place for a bit until you get a new mod.

Thank you FAU for finally recognizing what an anti-Star Citizen echochamber this place is. Perhaps now this subforum can finally start to move towards a more neutral ground where the game can be discussed in a more objective light. Derek Smart never intended to give Chris or his project a chance and as such he should not have been the mod. How can constructive discussion take place when the entire thread zeitgeist is against the very idea of Star Citizen?

It is not policing the thread which would be a problem. Just the occasional problem user, and obsessives over on /r/dereksmart who think that SA mods are the illuminate.
