When I ask my fellow tranceaddicts to vote for me, I am not just asking them to vote for me as an individual. I'm asking them to vote for a change of direction, for new standards and new values - or, I should say, for the old standards and old values we once enjoyed here in this forum. Will voting for me erase our problems or magically cause us to revert to our former glory? Certainly not. But it will send a powerful message that there is still a strong desire out there in this community to raise standards - because that is the true message of my campaign. |
While I recognize that there are relatively more, or at least more vocal, trolls and other undesirables in the c0r I think that you have taken the wrong view of things. What makes the c0r great is the randomness of this place. It is an area where anything is fair game. At any one time there can be thoughtful discussions on Platonic virtues along side a collection of entertaining stories from the clubbing world, women being catty about which of them has the most questionable morality, and some drunk or stoned person posting the ill-conceived notions flooding their minds while the rest of us mock them relentlessly. This is the magic of the c0r! There is something for everyone at all times. There is a such an unstructured, free form, chaotic collection of people, opinions, and expression here. This is the glory of this place, yet you see it as the downfall? Yes, there will be those that we'd rather not listen to but shutting them down would take away a little bit of the joy we all find here. We don't need new standards and values, we need to simply embrace what we already have. We don't need a leader who will sit in a lofty ivory tower and tell us what we're doing wrong, we need one who will embody the best of all aspects of the c0r. Someone who shows it is possible to have all the chaos we love about this place while still maintaining a level of decorum that shows respect for all our members. That is what I can provide, someone who is equally well equiped for the intellectual threads, drunk threads, party threads, and random stupidity threads. A reflection of what the c0r means and what we love about it.
