There are too many things to list as to why I believe Dave would be a great Mod. True, he has had his faux pas. However, if he was placed within the Mod rank, I do believe he would approach certain situations more appropriately. I'm confident that he wouldn't disappoint you, Rich.

I would like to thank those who have nominated me and as Jim posted earlier I do accept your nominations. Nick hit the nail on the head with his post.

The following is a few parts of some pm's Rich and I had back when he was looking for mods for the various forums.

Thanks in advance,

I don't mean to put you on the spot, but I do think I need to know a bit about the people I put into moderator positions here.

This is your site and you will run it how you wish. If you were to allow me to be one of your mods I would follow your guidelines you have set forth to the letter.

Asking me to explain is not putting me on the spot. Again, this is your site, and I agree it would be foolish to just let anyone into a mod position without knowing where that person stands. I enjoy this site and if I didn't I wouldn't bother to be here nor would I encourage others to come here.

I meant it then and I mean it now.

Thanks again for the nomination ladies and gents.


I agree that Chuck should somehow be memorialized here on Fauna.

I hate to go off topic in a mod needed thread, however, Dave is right and I think the perfect place for Chuck would be his cooking forum. If y'all recall he really worked hard with Rich to get it going. That would be my choice and a great place for us who loved him to honor him.

sorry back to your nominations

Laura, I was thinking something along those lines would be GREAT. I was thinking the BOI, but the cooking thread really would be about Chuck. Something like "The Chuck Kimmel cooking thread" or "Chuck Kimmel memorial". Personally, I think if we saw his name daily, as we used to, it might ease the loss of him a little bit as well.

My .02 and sorry for being

it could be Chucks Slap Chop shop

He LIVED for the BOI

I looked back to see if anyone else had this thought, and Dean did.

Great minds thinking alike!!!

I propose that Chuck be given the title "Fauna Uber-Moderator Emeritus" for all Eternity.

I'm sure he'll be over-seeing us all anyway, and we might as well make it his official title.

I can just see him sitting on a cloud, shaking his fists at all the bad guys, and trying to throw lightning bolts at them!!

Chuck Kimmel for "Fauna Uber-Moderator Emeritus"!!!

RIP, Chuck!!!

Several members that would make a good mod around here. Hard to pick just one. LOL

True.. I think some of the older ones (longer term) have proven stamina, loyality, ability to control what they post and where they post and have proven to have the kind of intregrity that would encourage me to read their posts respectfully.

Harald is kinda a hard act to follow.

Hard Push for ya David I think you would Be THE MAN!

All the proposed mods sound good to me!!

I'm gonna have a hard time picking only one!!

We NEED a delete button, too.
