I'm not sure about these rumors floating around about me, haha. I've never heard any of them...

I've never met Wade in real life. I did start talking to him before I was modded though. I would talk with some of the mods from time to time on AIM, and I guess they didn't find me all that annoying, or they probably would have blocked me instantly. After that I began talking to Wade. Then DarkArchon referred me to Wade for modship. Then the mods discussed it secretly. Then finally, I was just modded. So yeah, I basically got modded because I knew people who knew people and I became friends with people of power... But I don't know what's wrong with that.

People are saying it's unfair that people are modded because they have connections. What's so unfair about it? This isn't a minimum wage job, where you get hired because they need help. You get hired here because you seem loyal, you're respected, and you are responsible enough to handle the authority given to you. Why would Wade want to go around modding people he doesn't know, how could he trust them? When someone says "Well, he should mod good posters, not his friends." How does he KNOW who the good posters are? He doesn't watch the forums like a hawk and stalk everybody who browses the BBS... He mods the people he gets to know, that way he can trust them, and he knows them on a first-hand basis, so he can find out what their character is, and if they are good enough for the modship... Though sometimes people are modded that Wade doesn't know, but that's usually because so many mods recommended that person.

Saying Wade shouldn't mod his friends is a ridiculous statement... If I ran a business I would only give people I knew, respected, and trusted, power to help me run my business.

And just to add something more. If I'm not mistaken, Dobio also nominated me for modship (or when I was nominated he agreed I should be modded.) And anybody Dobio nominates should definitely be modded, because he's a genius... Or at least a genius for saying I was worthy enough of becoming a mod ;)

I think they're saying it happened because you guys play Xbox Live together. But it's all just jealousy, I remember before being modded DS was all over the BBS. Every other topic was about his hair or some other faggy thing. Damn I wanted to lock/ban so much during that time. :)

How I got moded:

DarkArchon got moded, and people we pissed, so Wade moded some other people to appease the anger, first one being ME, the angry loudmouth guy who's still always right about everything EVER.

so

if you want to be a mod

BE RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING EVER ALL THE TIME.

just like me.

That's true, but I started talking to the mods before I ever played Xbox Live with Wade. So I went through the mods to get the chance to even converse with him. Then after that, I would play some Halo2 with him and we would make fun of DarkArchon together, while he sat around the whole time saying how he fucked my mother after he pushed her down some stairs and then raped a mexican... Or whatever.

Intestinal worms, of inteligence and delight! :D They are the most friendly people in there, and the most fun you can have, unlike here where everyone has about a 1/4 pound of dry sand in their vaginas.

And where is how to is just the part where the geeks on NG go. GEEKS ON NG. That's hard to do .Its pretty boring and its basicaly just a bunch of people lougning around waiting to be "helpful" by pasting some info from a page.

Actually, it was about stats for a long time, untill Wade said ' No more scripts ' and the lists were canceled. : ( I'm still waiting, hoping that those lists will be incorperated into NG some how. And why is it boring? Helping out people is another thing mods do, or say one of the things a model moderator does. You don't like helping people? Seeing ' Thankyou so much!' or ' How can I thankyou for finding this ' flash/thread/stat/etc.'? It's such a wonderful feeling to help out someone in need, don't you think? And sir, I wouldn't be talking about geeks, seeing how you look oh so much like one yourself. :o

But I don't know what's wrong with that.

You are a general good person before you were modded, and you still are now. Alot of people know who you are because you used to hang out in the C&C, and you do post in here for the most part.

Saying Wade shouldn't mod his friends is a ridiculous statement... If I ran a business I would only give people I knew, respected, and trusted, power to help me run my business.

What if they knew nothing about that business? I'd rather take the time to get to know someone who knew all about it before setting my friends up with a job they have no clue about.

Knowing the business goes hand-in-hand with getting to know people, respecting them, and trusting them... Especially the trusting part, because he is trusting them with HIS business, which means they must know a little bit about what's going on.

And honestly, that's just the way of the world. You get places by knowing people... This is why socialites make it places and hermits don't. Being able to interact with people, via the internet or the real world, is a very valuable skill to have, because it's a fact that you'll get further in life if you possess the ability to socialize. I've always been a good people-person.

I don't get the point to all your arguing. Are you trying to say the mods are not doing a good job? Aside from the few people get pissed off from a ban I almost never hear anyone make an arguement that the mods are doing anything wrong and if they do say anything their arguements more or less boil down to "The mods spam too much" or "I like the way the forum was before mods." If the mods are doing a good job of moderating the forums then who cares how they got the job.

And of course, like Wade will point out from time to time the forums are only a very small part of Newgrounds. They're not gonna put all of their efforts into trying to find mods so why not go with the people they know.

ew no way.

It's such a wonderful feeling to help out someone in need, don't you think?

99% of the time I see people asking for help on this site its things they could have figured out by themselves in 5 fucking minutes. Ihate those tards.
I'll help people on occasion, but its really rare that they NEED and DESERVE to be helped. I won't stay in some forum all day telling people how to deposit, no way.

damn. What do you think I am? Batman?

but all bullshit aside, I understand why you like to hang around in the same places over and over with the same people. Its a nice feeling to return to the same blokes day after day, its just that if the forum was just the CCC for me, it would suck ass. The CCC was a nice complement while it lasted, but it wasn't everything to me.
