But to put this shortly and not be as blunt as I was before, I think it's incorrect to chose a mod based on their local activity in the local scene. It is AND it isn't. Not to drag this out BUT this is an internet forum and if ones activity on the forum is not active then such responsibility should not be given to the person. It's only common sense. Now from a personal standpoint Porky's personal preference is relatively clear and I respect that; but as I indicated to him in private convos I have seen mods assigned to forums for "random" or unobjective reasons which made these forums turn dead due to inactivity from people in charge. Sorry if you want to call me a post whore ( which I clearly am not, I wouldn't think so because most of the posts I make are polite and well intended ) but I've been on forums ( not just TA ) for years and mod in many different ones and well ... if you make decision based on external facts well it's bound to lead to a 'situation'.

john, i am assuming you are in disagreement with my personal choice of tom/dj2kta, for which you are entitled to your opinions but once again i have to disagree with you.
take a look at the nyc mod election. who's the top candidate? Brian/kidynce. outside of the ny boards he rarely posts elsewhere, and even within the nyc boards he doesn't post as much as other posters.
with this in mind, the reason why he is the top candidate is b/c of his local involvement. he has organized local meetups and local ta bbq's which is what in essence what the local boards are about. the boards are not about how much 'online' involvement you have. for all i can care, you could be a bedroom post machine but never attend events. how good of a mod would you be if you never attend shows and actually meetup with ppl, which is the next logical step after chatting with others online?
i think john, you are unfairly attacking Tom b/c in all honesty you have never a part of the local chicago TA meetups that have been going on the past year. i'm sure you are an active member of TA, but this has more to do with the local boards, with chicago being the biggest metro. in tom's defense, even though he will probably not post much, i do believe that he will make the extra effort to meetup with people like he has done in the past 7 or 8 shows i've been to with, and to me, that's the most important thing b/c i actually want ppl to meetup not just online but in person.
i agree with bobby that active posting is an important factor, to which i strongly believe that he would do a good job as a mod.
it's a combination of factors, not just online posting but also how socialble you are in person.. with these factors in mind i have narrowed the choices to tom and bobby and think they are the most capable in handling the modship.
