Does it have to be for the role as editor?

Freek:

Yes, we have plenty a moderator and they only enforce the status quo anyway.

Yams In a can:

Yams In a can:

Remember? I was part of CoU? We had that whole back-and-forth thing as i tried to express my love for you through spamming WoA forums?
Oh, what times.

Yams In a can:

What's WoA, I have never seen you post. :-/

Mithrandir7:

nostalgia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lolol was it CoU that I joined and got my whole clan to join and then left? Haha... BoM = best clan on earth though. Those were great times though.

Fraik has gone power crazy since the last time you were here, sadly.

Angarah:

I remember BoM... I think.
As for you, Yams in a can, I'm old... I was here for what i guess we could call MEC's heyday. Before BFME's release.
Before all it got all stuffy in here.

Yams In a can:

Freek:

I have already contacted a number of candidates for a final "test" before we decide who to promote. If you have not been contacted I'm afraid you didnt make the cut :(

Yams In a can:

ok ;-(...

Nazzie:

At first I was like all excited cause I thought this thread was directed at me, I mean we are talking about me here I am awesome. Then as I got further and further through the thread I became more and more disappointed. Lamest thread ever.

Krv:

Don't worry Nazzie, you're still the best modspammer SWT ever had :P

Nazzie:

YES! My title shall never be usurped since that site has gone down into a bubbly internet grave.

Krv:

Actually, Zoli's been trying to get it back up again :P He's got all the data, just nowhere to host.

Nazzie:

geocities!

Freek:

He could go for one of those $30/y hosts since he's not going to get any traffic anyway...
