Nard for GM

[Nard]

I would have to vote no, my reasoning is he does not understand english as a GM should.
But other then that hes a fair player.

Yubaba, I can understand that you vote no, but not for that reason. Most of my misunderstandings with other players don't come from english, but from the way ideas are expressed. It can happen even in my own language.
I may lack about some everyday expressions, but when I have a doubt I have always said to my interlocutor that I didn't understand. Thus it can happen to every people whose native language is not English. And, now I think you cannot ask to any person even a GM to know about all English country-dependent particularities.

Now if you can quote here any case where my "limited" English practice has caused any harm to somebody, I will ask immediately to close this poll.

cordially;

My vote will depend on this. Would you ban me if I said something in caps? Would you ban me without warning if I insulted you? Would you ban me for spamming if the server's automated system didn't catch it? Would you give a global announcement if I asked for one? Would you spawn reapers and kill everyone in town? Do you want to be a GM? Are you an active developer? Would you care about others opinions when enforcing the game rules? Will you be a gm that punishes both parties of a conflict if evidence that both are antagonistic against each-other. Would you find it acceptable that you first seek out another gm's attention when a conflict directly effects you instead of acting irrationally? How do you think you will do as a gm? Did you fill out crush's questionnaire? What would you do differently from our current GM if anything at all?

Meway, I have already answered to some of you questions upper in this thread. (insults, questionnaire...) but I can make it more precise.
Actually GM have two roles:
They are game moderators, rules are made to keep nice playing conditions. They discuss and decide the behaviour to have to face various situations. I would stick as closely as possible to their collective decisions as to GHP's ones.
Now, I would not ban anybody for insulting without trying to have a calm discussion first (I don't do it even for my friends). As I already said, if I have doubt I can ask for other GMs mediation, but in obvious cases i will not hesitate to apply rule. Caps use is just a shout and is not an insult, it can be worth an observation. There are GM rules concerning spamming, just as with non English speaking in public chat. I finally think that any case that is not explicitly described in the rules and causes problem should be discussed between GMs first and larger if needed (Admins or GHP).
They act as event organizers:
I would do my best to have events, at least as nice as the ones we're accustomed to, and also try to imagine new ones
Being a GM is not a fun thing: It is not a reward to me (except the trust testimonies from my friends). I would loose some freedom of speech, or game time for example. If I accept, it is to help this game in some way (the best I can).

I've known Nard in the game for maybe a year now. We chat regularly.
I'm a native English speaker and have never noticed language problems when talking with him. Like many non-native speakers, he sometimes uses less common but excellent English words like "interlocutor."

That's not to say he and I always agree; his opinions about cheese border on the heretical. Sadly, they're also well expressed.

Not posting.
Due to whispers on tmw.

I regret that you are obliged to suppress your post consecutively to excessive pressure.
I can't agree with whispers pressure to have somebody remove his opinion, whatever it is.
The subject was on different interpretations of the sentence:

I would guessing sockpuppeting nard.

Please do

I do not want anymore problems to any player about this poll. Please lock this topic.

I will not accept to be a GM unless some members of the GHP ask me and reopen this poll.

Thank you to all contributors who told their opinion whether it is positive or negative.
Thank you to all players who trust me.
The good for you is that you will not have me on your back
The good for me is that I can keep my freedom of speech.
