I am requesting for low-level again, if I already didn't have them removed, because my last operatorship was only a trial for my RfA. Since I cancelled my RfA, I'm pretty sure that my trial is up, I would like to "renew" it. I have been on the IRC for nearly a year, had three months of experience of moderating #halopedia, and I am very fluent around the channel. I am very well aware of the changes in IRC policies and I frequent the IRC every single day I find a computer. Please take this into consideration.

:{{Support}} I definitely support this. Even though I don't think he's ready to be an admin, he suits as an op.

I am requesting to be a low-level Op on #Halopeida, I am normally on at times that there is not any Ops on, and I am a constant user on the IRC. I also believe that some of the stuff that happens while an Op is away is outrageous, or just the stuff that some Ops let go is amazing.

I've been talking about this for a while, and I'm finally doing it. I'm requesting operator status on #halopedia. I have experience with the operator commands on the channels #gruntcorner and my personal channel, ##deltahangar. I'm on IRC most of the day on most days, I'll only not be on if I go on a trip, or if my computer explodes (unlikely).

::Just because GruntCorner doesn't have any formal rules about kicking doesn't mean that there isn't a limit to what is considered appropriate nor does that mean that actions within GC shouldn't be counted against you.  In truth, one of the largest problems we've had is attitude from our ops and admins in the past.  A place like GruntCorner shows us what sort of attitude you bring to those kinds of powers.  CR, who owns the channel, rarely (if ever) plays with the kick button - it is very rare that you are kicked and unable to figure out why.  Hearing the word "barely" sets off plenty of alarm bells and makes me wonder just how many of those kicks are justified....and how many of them are just you either goofing off or letting a temper get to you. --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 07:16, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

:::::My point is: while there might be things on GC that aren't ok on HP, it is concerning to see someone use that as a justification.  No, I would never test a user on his ability to moderate on GC, but someone who acts like a dick on GC I would be fairly hesitant to support for ops on HP.  That said, I don't vote unless I see clear evidence of either a person having good moderation skills or poor member of the community - rather I raise questions about arguments and reasoning made. --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 14:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

:Ahem....I only kicked you because you ''were'' flooding. In fact, you filled the whole channel with some joke. I (and the others on the channel at the time) warned you several times before I kicked you the first time. Then, you continued and I kicked you again. And that repeated several times. The last time I kicked you was because of lag. Even though you stopped, my computer kept spouting things several minutes late (because of it being on mibbit). Therefore, I kicked you. Even I explained what happened, though, you banned me. BTW, to others, that was on #gruntcorner.

:::If how he acts on GC is going to affect the possibility of his op status in #halopedia, then you might as well take away my ops and James' ops too, cos you've seen how both me and him act in the channel. James with his crimping/animal camouflage (XD) stuff. Then you have me going on about whatever, like calling the Easter Bunny a bastard for not giving me chocolate on Easter. Yet both of us can control ourselves in certain channels and what not and act how we should, and it seems like Delta can control himself too, we just have our moments.

{{Oppose}} - Entire joke category is considered to be questionably funny based upon how comfortable individuals are with the subject matter.  Add on that half of those jokes were pedophilia in nature.... I don't think there's a way you can claim you didn't know that they easily could've been offensive to a good segment of the community.  That's just plain common sense - a trait I'd hope any moderator to have.  However, at the very baseline, we expect moderators to know the rules, uphold the rules, and LEAD BY EXAMPLE in following the rules and those jokes are technically against the rules - Inappropriate Content, subitems 4, 5, 6, and 10. --[[User:Forgottenlord|forgottenlord]] 03:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

==[[User:ImperatorExercitus|ImperatorExercits]] for low-level op==

I, ImperatorExercitus, am making a request for low level op. During my time on #Halopedia, I have ''never'' gotten banned and kicked only a few times (the majority of which were simple misunderstanding). In addition, I have warned spammers, flamers, and "hit-and-run" vandals (that is, they say something offensive, and then leave). I am quite experienced with operator skills, as I have experimented and learned them on #gruntcorner. As for lag, I have recently gotten a new internet which is '''much''' faster, thus nulling the incident on Gruntcorner, which I now freely admit was due to my laggy internet. I often contribute to discussion civily on #halopedia, and am on good books (for the most part) with everyone. I've been on the IRC for several months (every day except on when my computer crashes/I'm away), for over 5 hours each day. So, I believe that I fit the standards and would make a decent operator! Cheers. Sincerely, {{User:ImperatorExercitus/sig}}
