6th Forum President & Vice President (Freemind & Jokers)

[hugeblack]

I'm currently a "strong candidate" for admin if that helps. There is still too much admin is responsible for, ie most of the forum work, hence I applied for jnr admin 4 years ago to try help assist with this. Ideally also pres comm will strengthen with Jokers addition, and we can work more as a focused core team there.

This would be very helpful, frankly it would be better if admin's responsibilities were limited to code development, database management, backups and technical updates.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. As president, my first decision is to impose tariffs on all boards ... Just joking.

It's an honor to be president again. I hope to have more time to do more at the forum and continue improving in all aspects.

Congratulations Jokers!

Congratulations mate  You work very hard. And also Joker is a very active member monitoring the forum

All the best to you both

Freemind and Jokers deserve the positions in the forum. As the name implies, he really has a free mind in the forum. The unbiased dealing with everyone. I also join other meaningful members in the forum to congratulats the two in their victory. With this reelection, they will achieve greater things here in the forum.

Including the forum funds and forum tokens. I doubt there's any Forum treasurer here..

The new admin also need to have basic programming knowledge- could be useful at the backend with the main admin..

Congratulations to both of them, this is a great achievement. They have a lot of potential for the forum, which is why they were elected with a high vote count. I think it was fair. I congratulate them again.

+1 to the Admin, for making such an important post by declaring the results of the vote.

Very good suggestions actually, but I am wondering, if admin responsibilities will be limited to all of this that you mentioned, who then takes over the ads and the revenue being generated from the forum ads?

Are there or is there any user amongst the elected parties who admin trust well enough to handle and manage the forum ads negotiations and placements on this forum and also ensure safe keeping and judicious use of the fund generated without embezzlement? Asking this because I know this currently the responsibility, or one of the responsibilities of the admin..

+1 anyway..

That's another story that ironically was partly explained in the forum president topic, but was recently removed as deemed redundant.

I thought this might come up so should have been included, so I'll leave that one to admin explain 

The new admin also need to have basic programming knowledge- could be useful at the backend with the main admin..

Ideally a dev would come though mod route to get there to assist with coding on test sites, that would be helpful I imagine. There are currently three listed candidates atm imo.

Ideally there would be more active Ambassadors that could be taking more key roles in negotiating ads etc, as has been the case in the past, but overall finance/revenue remains admins responsibilities (even though 25% can still be earnt by mods of the section they bring ads to, last I checked). I wouldn't say it's the bulk of the admin work though, even though it consumes enough time. Most of the workload is in the backend fixing problems and always trying to improve and update the forum, more specifically testing out new code on the test sties which is very time consuming.

[Jokers]

Thank you all for your kind words related to this election. Hope we'll make the forum even more great than ever!

200% support!

I am not leaving anytime soon,
if i get too busy to manage, will assign an admin to replace me.

treasury: not of the concerns of users, because the forum only distributes altt and alts tokens nothing else (in the past, i did distribute few times eth, but that will no longer be the case), i do however use the funds to support liquidity everytime i do general token distributions.

token policy: distributed based on points and special ranks including moderators etc , nothing more to say.
Small amounts of tokens are given to president for different contests and community engagements, and that will be frequently the case, amount given in small quantities to avoid too much sell pressure on the small liquidity the token has.

Elected Senators by majority vote,  have renewed for the sitting president : Freemind (hence becoming the 5th and 6th president)
Meanwhile Jokers took the vice president position.

Congrats to both you deserve it, for the hard work you put for this community.

Congratulations @Freemind & @Jokers. I think Both person are deserve this position. I also think they will more contribute on our Forum from now. Voters are confident on them so they elected them.

Not getting you into early retirement though, just that life is not promised and whether you're here or not, we still want the forum to keep existing and not disappeared with you. Are future plans keep in place to make sure the forum continues to exist without you?

  I don't know what to say about this

let's say, in an ideal outcome, i'll manage to have an entire solution that require no central authority, done.
middle outcome, someone else becomes admin
worst outcome (highly likely), the forum dies out with time, like the 2-3 dozen other crypto forums that have existed (with the exception of btt)

Didn't want to put you in this situation, but we must all think ahead - this forum is climbing up there with BTT and needs to exist beyond you and me. There's no better time to start making out "after me " plan for the forum. Put your end users into consideration first..

Donations can be replaced but if the forum power is not equally shared with someone else, it will be gone for ever should the head be cut off..

[dragononcrypto]

middle outcome, someone else becomes admin

Why you and not you and? There's zero chance the forum would do well without you at present, even if someone else did have admin access. I assume it'd take 1+ years to mentor someone into becoming competent realistically, a handover would likely be an awful outcome should it occur in the future rather than having a transition period.

man ... this is just a forum
btt is more about bitcoin and satoshi, bitcoin is 1.5 trillion dollar asset.
forums like this pop up and disappear all the time.
i have run forums for more than 18 years, this is the first time i hear something like this
