Michigan, USAThe primary issue I had with the election process was that it genuinely comes down to a popularity contest of who has the larger friend group. This issue could have been slightly mitigated by limiting people to only voting for one person instead of three. Either way it only matters if the newer mods fix previous issues so we'll see how much this election mattered in the coming weeks.
Alright I had intended to let this run its course but the train has seemed to have derailed near the end. My personal opinions are mixed on the subject as people who know me know that I've mostly been doing non-recorded offline runs in races and such with friends due to terrible and nearly nonexistent upload rates at my University. However this post isn't to voice my side of the topic. I'm no mod of the server or major name in the community but I want people to read this and actually get what I'm saying so here goes:
This is a discussion board, not an argument board. We're all here reading through lines and lines of text to come to a decision about our community as a whole. When that decision was made a few pages in, let it go. Give an opinion and let it be considered. This board shouldn't look like a shouting match over whose side is better or worse but that is what it started to become near the end.
TL;DR: Opinions are welcome, save the arguments for text between each other. It looks really silly seeing 20 posts from 2 people going back and forth.
