AdminJar has administrator status, which makes him a forum wide moderator.
I am impressed by Jar's theological strengths and his calm nature (or am I misguided?).
Anyhow, I have hopes that AdminJar will especially be an admin asset in the theologically oriented topics/forums. Of course, this will be a balancing act, as his non-admin mode is quite active in those topics/forums.
We shall see how it works out.

AdminHambre and now AdminJar, we are in the End Times after all
Both are excellent choices.

Remember the imbalanceness between the overpopulation of evo admins and the total lack of creo admins in this forum that we were discussing a long time ago? Although I do not agree with buzsaw on a lot of topics, I do think that he is coherent and know his theological stuff, at least as far as the pure and unadulterated christian perspective goes anyway, enough to be an admin in this field.
You could say that this is a nomination post. Does anyone else see the same thing I'm seeing?
Afterall, who would want an orangetan to be an admin?

Hi Lam. Though you and I don't agree on a lot of things, I do appreciate your fair and balanced attitude towards me. Thanks very much. I've stated in the past that I simply don't have the time to give for the reading it takes to moderate. I would like to do it if I had the time. I do offer opinions on threads I participate in as to how some post in order to bring attention to some of the stuff counterparts who are the majority are getting by with.
As for jar moderating the religious forums, I don't see him as a bonafide religionist seeing how he takes the secularist side in most debates, but we'll see how he does in moderating.

Wow, I leave for five minutes, I come back and everyone's a f****** admin! (Slightly amended Faculty quote ).
Well, rather than bump up all the topics, I'll just post a quick congrats right here to Hambre, Jar ('bout bloody time ), and Eta. Well done, guys!

Sorry, I cannot support buz as a moderator.
I do agree he is quite familiar with the bible, but I really don't think, in the several years he and I have been on this forum together, that he has gotten much better at understanding what it means to debate with evidence rather than opinion. He also is expert at obsfucating and avoiding points raised in debate, which is very frustrating to deal with as a poster.
Since both of those are major forum guidelines, and moderators are meant to uphold the forum guidelines, I have serious doubts about his ability to do that.
Still, he is very even tempered, which is something he has up on both of us.
On balance, I think that he is WAY too blind to his own debate weaknesses to judge others fairly on the same issues.

Speak for yourself. Who in town is more even tempered or fair and balanced towards other members, regardless of ideology than Lam?

I am pretty sure Lam has gotten spoken to by admin several times for being too aggressive and personal. Maybe you haven't been in the right threads with him to see it.

Heh, I don't know if that line was meant to be funny but it always cracks me up.
Zeke: Sniff it!
Casey: You're out of your f****** mind!
Zeke: I'm not taking any chances. I leave for five minutes, I come back and everyone's a f****** alien. Now if I have to men-in-black your ass, you're gonna f****** sniff it!
I love that part!

Me? A creationist Mod? Well, thank you, I'm very flattered but I'm not sure I "qualify." In any case, I don't think I am anywhere near strong enough, emotionally, to be a Mod. I am far too sensitive, and I hate hurting others as much as I hate being hurt, myself. I just wouldn't have it in me to "lay down the law" as is sometimes necessary for a Mod. Nor could I handle the onslaught that often results from their having done so.
Thanks for the endorsement, though, Mike (even if you were just kidding ).
