  1. mayor is a community elected representative/position. i started the thread for bestfreinds election with no staff approval or involvement and it was run by the community. term length of the community representative is not a staff decision. whether we elect a new guy or not is not staffs business. if the community agrees with the 2 year term then great but we should actually think about it and make a decision and not let one guy make the decision for us just because he made a cool game and has good taste in lab coats.

    Staff is part of the community. And ultimately they are the ones who give the Mayor title on forums, so their involvement is necessary anyway.

    democracy is based on everyone being equal and having a equal say. staff control the forums and game. if staff step in and take control and say 40% of the community and staff want to thing a and 60% want thing b staff can and might just decide to "make the right decision" for us.

    Talk about being presumptuous there Senile. Unless I'm forgetting something (and I might be, in which case, my sincerest apologies), I don't remember you being elected to this position or BF appointing you to such. While I have the utmost respect for you for writing the PokeMMO Gospel, I cannot recognize you as a member of the PokeMMO Supreme Court. Church and State must be kept separate.

     

    That being said, I do not disagree with you concerning Dusty, I think he is qualified in holding the election and it being held in the near future is fine, we do not need to wait until 2020.

    separation of church and state is a very american concept. is this america?

    So you would rather have the poll elsewhere where it's much easier to be manipulated through VPNs instead?

    The VPN I am using and also all of it's biggest competitors have well over a thousand, so this is factually untrue. Also, in no way would this even itself out, rather couple people abusing it would skyrocket above the rest.

    their is no perfect option. but one gives someone a unbeatable cheat and one gives everyone a more limited cheat. there are only so many vpns with so many addresses. pia which is one of the biggest has 52 locations with a total of a little over 3000 ip's divided among them. you can choose a node and get one ip from that node. to get a new ip you have to disconnect and reconnect to get a random ip which may be the same or one already used. while there are many ip's it will take hours to get a few hundred votes, and this is with one the biggest and most expensive vpns that i KNOW many people on these forums uses. the more people using it the more often you will try to vote and find the ip already used.

     

    tl;dr lots of people will have lots of votes vs everyone has one vote except one person with hundreds or thousands

    Assuming that the re-elections would be held seriously, I doubt banned players would be eligible to participate as candidates. If it turns into a meme fest, then so be it. I would still rather have that as long as it's not rigged and other people get a fair chance.

    first election riga got on other peoples accounts and voted. second election the same. i dont see any reason to doubt it happening a third time. with one vote per ip, you need a vpn which cost money and most vpns only have a few dozen or hundred ip addresses. as we saw last election everyone with a vpn voted and it canceled eachother out. 

  5. black clover has the naruto problem. they try to stretch the source material too much and things like "guy goes to guild" take up the entire episode when it should only be a short scene. i read enough of the manga to know its a good story, but the effort in patience is just too much. in another anime forums im on 1 guy didnt drop it and nearly everyone gave it a try. also mc's voice actor shouts everything for some reason? 

     

    i feel like fma 1. the creator made a good story and the anime team fucked up. maybe we'll get a good one some day, but probably not =/

    When managers choose dubs, they want to get a win in a RNG-heavy format, so it implies they don't believe in their players capabilities and rather just leave the outcome of the match up to chance. The only thing that got fucked here is PSL.

    or they believe in their doubles players and trust their skilled players in the best tier to get the wins.

    Well considering he still needs to write the last 2 books he could change his mind on anything at any time. It could've been what he wanted at this time, but it could be different once he's in the process of everything. He hasn't finished Winds of Winter yet and hasn't even begun a Dream of Spring. Not the mention all the changes the many, many drafts are to bring since a first draft always sucks.They could also change it up out of fear sales might drop by the fact the results won't change and therefore the story is "spoiled". Especially with all the backlash to the entire season it would be bad to look too similar to it.

     

    "I’ve been so slow with these books," Martin told the Rolling Stone. "The major points of the ending will be things I told [Benioff and Weiss] five or six years ago. But there may also be changes, and there’ll be a lot added."

     

    He told them these things five or six years ago, by the time he's editing the last book it'll be about 10+ years since he made his outline for the ending. That's an awful long time to still execute your creative ideas as you first intended them.

    i dont think he will make a lot of changes on his original ideas. i think its a mistake to think we KNOW what those ideas are for sure since they writers of the show could do anything with it and we are assuming they followed martins ideas.
