      I know this is meant to be in good fun, but I'm not sure how it can't come off like a popularity contest.

      The "best" mod based on votes may plausibly end up being someone who jokes around on the forum, but doesn't actually do any work that benefits the website. That mod may also try to be extra friendly and never penalize anyone.

      As a contrast, there may be a mod who rarely posts, but does a lot of dirty work to clean up the threads. That person may also punish/ban people when required, which for the most part isn't appreciated on the receiving end.

      Hopefully the mod who ends up winning is based on doing a good job, but if the recent Canadian election proves anything, it's that being popular wins more votes than being better.

              Well blacksmithden helped me out with information a couple of times when nobody else would respond to my thread, so I voted for him. Just like I voted CPC because my MP always answered my questions within a day over email. Makes sense in my mind

                None of the above. These guys are all jerks. They only became mods so they could go toSHOT show.

                    I still think at least half of them are alternate personalities of Jwire....

                    I'm almost positive that Candychikita is one!

                            Tough to pick one. Seems like the mods are all solid members of the community here and I've yet to see any abuses of power.

                            So I picked one at almost random.
