The 2016 GH Presidential Election
Ladies and Gentleman of the GH.
Along time ago, back in 2007 I ran the first GH Election series contested between the Lime Green Party and One Notion Party, with the One Notion Party sweeping to power.
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=7413&sid=74695c0d8 ... 9311eb2c1d
Today I call a new Election, If there is enough interest on the weekend of 29th April- 1st May 2016. GH members will have the chance to elect a leadership team to run the GH. The choice will be yours, Will you vote in a benevolent leadership team who listen to the people or a Tyrannical Dictatorship to run the GH with a iron fist?
Nominations are now open and will close 8th April. After that the campaign and more importantly smear campaign begins.
Essentially with these nominations you will need to run as a team of President and Vice President.
Let the nominations begin!!!!

Re: The 2016 GH Presidential Election
Schifty will just launch a social media based coup whoever wins. Seems pointless even bothering with a vote.
Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Funny how they pretty much all switched teams when Stuart took over from Furner except for a few of us that just call it like we see itLenny Leonard wrote:I think it used to be posos and negos back in the day

Puh-lease, it was all doom and gloom with you when we signed Stuart.

Thankfully Pigman will be running for President as the representative of the Clique, I'll just be his right-hand man (and spell-checker).

I just started watching house of cards last night. Knocked over the first three episodes. Is there anyone in here I can talk about how good it is with?

Re: The 2016 GH Presidential Election
So after having a conversation with my grandad on the weekend and being informed that his uncle freds coffin was carried by the great ricky stuart (amongst others) i feel i need to form some kind of political movement.
Anyone care to run with me in an anti clique party? We are pro women and racial equality unlike all the other parties
