Here you go -

Discuss potential hirings here. Please, feel free to express what your honest opinions are, but let's keep it civil. Please refrain from bashing, needless name calling and do your best to keep it relevant.

I would like to limit the hiring thread to nominations/interest (with reasons, please, if you could. xD).

Thomas, I don't understand why you think previously having held the title of staff member makes someone qualified to again hold that title. They obviously left for a reason. You don't only say this about yourself, but you just said it about Anastasia up there ("she knows what she's doing, she can do the job, mostly becuase she's done it alrady"). Why do you think just because they've done it once they can do it again, when they left because something was wrong?

I was a staff member way the hell longer than you were, and I am in no way qualified to be one again right now. I'm not at all committed to this site and I only come around when I have nothing better to do. I really don't care at all and would probably step down within a month due to the apathy and constant rolling of eyes over Backstage nonsense. So, clearly, not a reason to hire someone.

I feel a bit awkward here stepping into this topic due to my slight couple-week-long inactivity-ness but after reading through these posts I'm just going to state that I agree a thousand percent with what Ersatz stated up there. If my memory retracts correctly, this isn't the first time you've stepped out an opinion almost exactly like this, Thomas. And uh, since I don't want to ramble on and on here, I'm just going to say that it's not that I/we don't hate you but it's just that I think you need to neutralize your opinion to the furthest extent. Sorry, but I just don't think your words are cutting it through people's minds. shrug.gif That's all.
