Archon and T2K for Moderator !!!

Both Archon and T2K are actual playing musicians

They are both responsive and make many posts on many diverse topics

Both have hands on experience in authoring patches

They are both strong enough to call a spade a spade, even in the face of great oppositon.

They are both human, have admitted readily to any mistakes and moved on as wiser men

They are both always learning and each month, their posts are more mature than the month before

I would say either or both would make a good choice for a new moderator alongside Iliace

In case you feel that I missed out on another suitable candidate, please elaborate on this thread

  • My guess is...it doesn't work this way. I'm sure G3456 will have his recommendations and iliace will have a say. Knowing G3456...this wasn't done on any spur of the moment, decision.

    I will welcome they're choice, and have confidence in their ability.
    I don't think the baby get to choose the babysitter.

    I hope they call in several of the troops...for iliace's sake. Even as it was....just 2 guy's Moderating...has to be tough. This membership is still small in comparrison to other Forums....but the content is much more complex and ....well....we're Artists....heheheehhheeeeeee....nuf said. :D

    Depends upon whether DT like to hear the voice of the forum or not. If they want to listen, this is our way of informing them whom we would like for the next Moderator(s).

    If they totally want to discard the forum's voice, then they can make any choice they like and inform us.
  • DT decides the moderators in the end. As the the voice of the forum, no one hears the voice of this forum other than its members!
  • groovy, I think I know what you are getting at. Who may best be qualified (around our community) to fill G3456's position. Am I to assume you have discussed with Archon and T2K and they both have no objection to accepting this role? I didn't see that part mentioned. Be a waste of energy...if you gather support for someone...although flattering...has no interest in the job. I'm only curious.

    Please don't get me wrong...I think the sentiment is cool...and I would like to see the job/jobs filled by \"active members\" and not someone new...as was hinted by G3456. We do have some members who have the requirements....but how many are actually in a position to accept the job...and stick with it?

    Again...I don't think this is an easy proposition, and anyway...it's all above my paygrade. You made a very good point. If we don't speak up...and we have something to add...now is the time.

    groovy...you my friend also...would be an excellent choice. Seems I remember you saying you are a sound engineer...and you have a \"sound\" (I crack myself up) understanding of this technology.

    Meanwhile...I'm moderating myself...and I hate this job. I hate behaving. I must go now...I feel something ignorant coming on. I (muffle muffle) :P
  • erm - i dont want to be a moderator

    tantrum should NEVER have power over other humans - the world would look like a heronimous bosch painting if he was in charge.

    i think we should clone iliace - or get Mike C back :twisted:

    hey what about Mike B!! i vote Mike B!! he's always here and he is the nicest guy - yeh him and Tal, and Odannyboy - these guys are easy going level headed people who know their stuff and they've been around for years.
  • Guys, let's try to stay on topic.

    If the forum wants to nominate moderators, there's nothing wrong with that.
    If certain folks wish to put forth their candidacy as moderators, that's fine too. As I said before, I have no idea what will happen with this - but DigiTech has listen to the forum in the past for input on other issues, so there's no harm in having your voices heard.
  • 8) can we have a moderator that doesnt edit people's posts??

    - although i can see why you edited my last one - i just want an end to it so i submit to your editing mania in this instance.

    To be censored really stings dude - you'd not like it i wager.
  • but seeing as you could make me say that i like wearing womens underwear anytime you felt like it id better shut up eh? :?
  • Because quite frankly I'm sick and tired of this nonsense and that's not what this forum is for. I've been pretty conservative editing/deleting posts, and I certainly don't misrepresent what people are trying to say.
  • I like wearing women's underwear
  • seriously though - the argument got over heated but the argument was an important one about the forum i think - becuase the forum was being used for something that it was not designed for in my opinion.

    digitech could have stepped in anytime and i have pm'd connie to slap me down if necessary...
  • Thanks Archon for mentioning me. 8)
    But I can tell you right now..
    I'm not even a Midiot...
    More like a MidMoron.. :lol::lol::lol: .

    I just like to play the axe.. 8)
    Am just now getting into Patches, Midi stuff, etc...
    As much as I like to play and compose stuff, and I really dig you guys taking time to listen to my meagre efforts. 8)
    But, bottom line this is a Digitech forum.

    IMHO the moderator, should not only have an appreciation of music but be EXTREMELY familiar with all the nuances of the Digitech product lines represented on this site..

    There are tons of Digitech products out there besides the GNX4.
    I believe the individual, whoever it may be, should have great familiarity with all the nuances, software and hardware wise, of all the Digitech product line.. :)

    G3456, AA, Illace, and several other guys, do fall into that category.. 8)

    My own thoughts on the subject, is that it would be cool to have a moderator from the Digitech staff, that is very familiar with software and hardware issues, of the products, that all of us enjoy here. Possibly someone from their internal design, software, or hardware teams.

    Just my 2 cents,
    Tal...
  • Yeah, if DigiTech posted a job advertisement for a forum moderator, I think the response would be considerably more overwhelming. I just don't think that's in their budget, unfortunately :lol:

    Figured they operated like my company.. :lol:

    (Typical meeting at Tal's place of employment)

    \"Gentlemen...We have a need...Which one of you guys is going to step up to the plate and fill it\"
    \"Hmmm.... NO Volunteers.....Thanks Tal for VOLUNTEERING your services\"
    \"Way to take one for the TEAM\"... :lol::lol::lol:
  • Those boys at DT tech support are really a fantastic talent pool. It would be nice of DT to have Tal's meeting with them. They are the BEST tech support team I have ever experianced.

    In conversations with them...(one in particular)...they watch this board and are already fimiliar with some of its members. So...even though they might seem \"new\" to us...we are not new to them.

    The techs have this equipment, and use it, and solve peoples problems everyday...and are probably responsible for many of the innovations. We would be so lucky.

    The ongoing active members are not going to suffer. We have some knowledge and experiance...but more importantly, we have each other. We know we can come to iliace with a problem, and we've networked here enough...that our problems will not go unsolved for long. Many times someone comes here seeking help...and it's the members here who step up regularly to offer support and encouragement. This is the strength of this community. It never falls on any one set of shoulders.

    We could moderate ourselves...and each other.41.giftease.gifargue.gif45-1.gif38.gif
  • I mean, I have a full-time job during which I moderate here. They'd be paying a dead body an hourly rate to be a moderator. Although, I wish the tech support folks would answer some ongoing/recurring issues we have here. But we'll do the best we can.
  • Manitou is right, My aim is to try and see if we can reach a concensus and propose a respected and willing member of the forum to DT as a moderator.

    and yes, I didnt wait to ask Archon and T2K first :cry:



    Unfortunately this board cannot handle a \"show of hands\" vote and only implements \"secret ballot\"

    So far we have 16 votes but posts from only six individuals.

    Would the remaining 10 please explain their choices ?

    Oops, many of my posts are missing altogether.

    In respect of the recently departed, I will submit to these mass deletions this time.

    However, it would be nice of the Moderators to lay down transparent rules for all to see up front.
    You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented or any other material that may violate any applicable laws.


    My last posts were not abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening or sexually-oriented and I think do not violate any laws.

    Why have they been deleted ?
  • Yeah! Where have my posts gone too? Also, I voted for \"Other\" as I believe it shouldn't be the forum members decision but Digitechs.

    shando
  • All,
    Since were on the subject. My post was removed as well. I spoke only how I felt from my heart. My post I feel violated no guidlines?? I did not vote for anyone because I don't know it's my place to pick the new moderators?? Maybee it is?? only time will tell??

    God Bless!!
    Partch
  • Would the remaining 10 please explain their choices ?

    Ok, because I like the other guy better!

    Am I the Other guy? :lol: No.....nuts! I was gonna make a Whine and Cheese forum where anything goes!!
    And a Joker forum....he heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

    ...oh well....I'm not Mod anyway.whip.gifchew.gif
    ...but I also voted The Other Guy too...once I knew archon wasn't interested...still don't know if T2K is or not. Better yet....
    Who is interested ?
  • I was gonna make a Whine and Cheese forum where anything goes!!

    Now that could be interesting!
  • Would the remaining 10 please explain their choices ?

    Why I voted for other...

    I'm relatively new but it was easy to see how helpful Mike was. People who throw tantrums in the forum to get their way are not worthy of Moderator status. Digitech should pick the replacement.
  • HAHAHAHAHAHA, well said jat.
  • :P :P :P :P

    aww stop - please stop youre really hurting my feelings and i think im going to cry because the opinions of a few people ive never met and only communicate with in forums really matters to me and affects my self esteem because i, like you, am an idiot.

    :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

    i think i get what you meant by your last pm connie - clever 8)

    but im gonna stick around out of spite and because it amuses me immensley to do so, its the only real punk reaction to be made - i have no choice otherwise 1977 will have meant nothing!! :twisted:

    i guess you could all save up the $60 you were gonna give mike and get a plane ticket for the biggest one of you to fly over and sort me out.


    he'd go home crying with his teeth in a jar but you could always give it a go :P :P :P

    oooooh go and give him your bleeding money then - i dont care - el grando stupidos
  • Stop it now, I'm shaking with fear.
  • so you should girly boy 8)
  • what's the matter, you run out of anything decent to say so you start hurling insults to the forum indiscriminately? Further, who exactly has asked you to go anywhere? Certainly not me, though if I was the type of person who might say \"go (censored) yourself\" I would, but alas, I'm not so I wont.
  • Threats of bodily injury???? :?

    Yes ladies and gentlemen.
    We have indeed sunk to a new LOW.... :lol::lol::lol:
    I guess with the tone this board is taking it should be painfully obvious why a moderator is needed.. :lol::lol: .

    I would have never have thought it of this group.. :( .

    \"And now Ladies and Gentlemen\"
    \"I present\"
    \"Digitech WWF\"
    \"SMACKDOWN\"... :shock:

    JR...
    \"Vince, What did you think of the visious figure four Nelson that Shando just applied to Archon?\" :shock:

    King....
    \"Just what he deserved... Ooooops... Archons gotten out of it and just delivered a vicious drop kick to Shando.. :shock: .

    Stay
    Tuned.. :roll:

    See Ya,
    Tal.. 8)
