Right.
I'm just going to step in to the conversation here now

"And I thought we already had a few valid and dignified candidates... (chenliangchen, eekkelund, pichlo, abranson, mosen)" ?

I would guess by the omission of my name I do not fit your criteria of valid and dignified.

win7mac..
You may not approve of my style of writing,
and you may not like my sense of humour
Or my general nature to make light of either dry material (downright wrist-cutting-ly boring at times ..in fact...)
or my methods to defuse very tense and angry dialogues.

But push comes to shove..
Though I have been an official member here only a few years..
I have been here faaaar longer as a silent non-member.
I am no slouch nor have I just let others help or put in the time here.
I have done plenty to make this a better place and I have the track record here any can look up to prove to that.
I have nothing but the utmost respect, admiration and great fondness for everyone of my peers and friends here and that includes you too win7mac.

Endsormeans not valid or dignified enough for you?
At the moment I am mightily mightily pissed off.
If you PAID me to help with council right now...
If you set a briefcase full to the brim with money...
I'd freakin' set it on fire in front of you
you prig.

I am perpetually humbled whenever anyone has even considered me for nomination ...
really guys...

But not a one of you ever DARE nominate me again.

I have no desire to talk further on this topic
It will simply make me livid
I am so furious right now...
I have a great desire at the moment to destroy some irreplaceable carvings

Sounds like someone's very grumpy because he has not been nominated. Grow up!

That's it.
You can shove that statement right where it hurts most.

you fire-flaming confrontational illiterate.


TRY READING THE LAST FEW DAYS OF POSTS

I WAS NOMINATED.

I take win7mac's statement as a very personal affront and insult...
to my intelligence,
to the validity of my work here,
the value of me as member here,
and to my dignity

You ....
Mr. Smug...with your complete lack of understanding of the situation, propriety, etiquette, conversational discourse, and moral compass
can get off my back.
Before I get mightily pissed off.

It is said many wise things in jest, but it's nothing compared to the nonsense that is said seriously.

endsormeans, I am very sorry.
Nobody seriously questions your dignity including me.
I'll comment on that soon™.

I've no issue with endsormeans; none at all. I doubt many people here do. And if they do; they don't count!

I relished my short time I was active on the board but my work schedule got in the way very early on - I inherited 26 people under me as a director - meant that I was incredibly too busy. Yet... Win7Mac, Wikiwide and all of the others did just great in my stead.

Being nominated is not a small thing. The actions affect us all. Good luck to all that are nominated; no need to be upset when it goes one way or the other. It's rarefied air that you enter once you join the ranks of the TMO board.

Again, I am very sorry if I hurt anybodys feeling by not nominating or putting anybody in the row of my 'mentionees'.
But you know, thankfully I'm not the one to decide who's valid and dignified...

Did you realize this was probably your first post where you were being almost straight objective? - Usually you have a strong tendency to pull your readers into your mindset and what to think of your findings.
But now that you mentioned it, where exactly did you confirm your candidacy in your post, which sentence?

And while I agree or thank you for some posts, I personally and generally find your posts tedious to read and hard to grasp what you're trying to say for different reasons and I'm sure I'm not alone since I'm not the only non-native. Here's why:
- Your posts are way too long
- You rarely write complete sentences
- Way too many uhs, ohs and punctuation marks (you know...... what I mean???!!!)
- Way too many slang (U no wad ima talkin'bout, dontcha?)
- You're using many effigies, likenesses, allegories that are only known to natives and insiders of whatever kind (chanooks probably?)
- You're using many and also uncommon adverbs and adjectives (to give your comments a certain tint?)
- It feels like you're always hypothesizing your readers agree 100% (what if they don't)?
- and it sucks if all the above already manifests in your thread titles...

Now that's just me. But I felt it from the point you surfaced here. I always waited for someone else to mention that somewhere but that either didn't happen or I didn't notice. I'm sorry this 'sort of a topic' (which again is my very personal one and shouldn't be yours really) condenses in this thread...

With all that said, rest assured that you are, even in my eyes still, a very dignified candidate. Good will is key for that and I guess it's safe to say you have plenty of that.
You now officially have my vote!
