I'd like to nominate therealbug ~ if you're interested, of course. You've been such a diplomatic and grounded member of this community since I joined, and you jumped whole heartedly into the rebuilding effort over here.

Just an idea - I know we voted one mod, but if there are a clear 2 ladies (which there seem to be), and they both want to do it, I wonder if we could re-think the election a bit to include an option for both of them?

I like this. Especially since we've had a huge influx of new users here since the initial vote, maybe we can switch? We've got a lot more content rolling through now.

I am trying to think of cons for having 2 mods and I can't really think of any except if they feel differently on how this community should be run. From what I have seen these two ladies want the same thing for all of us ladies here.
I think it would help for there to be two so everything isn't dependent on just one person.

Accepted, humbly.
I would very much like to see a revote on how many mods. I voted for 2, because of the sensitivity of issues that arise here, and even mods have to sleep. On TTCAL, I always had Wicked to back me, even though she was never listed as a TTCAL mod. That being said, I would like to nominate bug as well. It was always my plan to ask bug to take over as mod on TTCAL, if and when it was time for me to step down. Over the years, as the 'next generation' of TTCALers (to me), she has proven herself to be logical, compassionate, and a great protector of our community. While we have not always seen 100% eye to eye, we have always talked it out and found a common way to go.

I think the final decision on this rests with you ladies here and NariaDreaming. *****************QBF************* Wait, you are telling me that we have say in the final decision for what is good for our community??? What a novel idea!!

I think two mods is a great idea and Petra hit many of the ideas of why I voted for two also.
And can I bring you with me to my interview tomorrow? Thank you so much!

@wickedcandy - I had your name typed out, but then I thought I had read somewhere that you didn't want to mod this board. Maybe I read that wrong? I did think of you!

Can I say I'm a little peeved that no one has bothered to nominate me ?? Wow...
I apologize completely. I could have sworn I read something where you said you weren't going to, because you were in a differeng headspace. I must have misread it, and I absolutely nominate you! You were my rock on TTCAL!

@wickedcandy ~ (((Hugs))), love. I can't speak for everyone, but when I read your update the other day I took it that you didn't want to mod here after the temporary period was over. I can only guess that ladies may have shied away from nominating you because of that, as that certainly was the case for me.
