Still no. I love the fact that she decided to dump the old topic, claiming it was sock puppet, which could have happened. What she is really doing is trying start a clean topic with out bring up the problems with her assorted past.

I would request that the old topic be reopen, the vote zero out, because the arguments in the old thread still apply to the new poll.

Someone should not be able to spam the GM voting section until they "get it right". To allow someone to just completely and randomly start new topics over and over again until they get what they want is not you do a good job at electing anything.

For those that do not know, Chicka has a very checkered past with almost anyone here. There is a reason that her old poll went so far south that she had to "engineer" a new topic.

Well I guess this makes Chicka-maria a true GM candidate! Darkwater never wastes her time on the "has beens"!

I voted yes, I think Chica-Maria would be a great, fun, fair/honest GM.
We currently have at least one inactive GM ...Tiana? away for sometime... and I see Narus infrequently also.
We need 5 Active GM's IMO.

I'll point out that questioning a new rule's purpose, and having some sentiment or personal opinion about it, does not mean someone is terribly unfit to be a GM. Honestly, I would vote no for anybody who would not be willing to question something they don't believe is right, even if put out there by an authority figure. Yes, respecting the rules is necessary, but using critical thinking is important in my opinion. This does not mean I think she was always in the right in how she did so, but I do appreciate when people ask "why" about an issue/rule/change, rather than pointing a finger at any group they can think of and claiming it was done for the wrong reasons. Logic > Assumption, every time.

DarkWater: You did agree her other poll could have indeed been sockpuppeted, and we all know that's far from an uncommon thing in these polls lol. In other cases people got to open a new poll, so how is she spamming GM topics with this one?

I have to say, you still post here despite not playing (that I know of), so why not ever visit and discuss your thoughts in game on occasion?

@Chicka: You are a funny and helpful player but in this case I will say no. If you get elected I will gladly work with you as GM, but my personal opinion is that, sorry.

Everyones entitled to a vote and an opinion, for players as narus or anyone for that matter decide to vote no that is their choice and right as a player. I do not wish hateful words to people who speak what they think about in this poll.

As Chicka said everyone has his own opinion, personal I think that she will be a good GM, I know for her a while and I know for sure that she's very gentle and down to earth also I was satisfied and how she takes other people's constructives critics or not... second thing is that she's a very active player, I don't know how much time other GMs spend invisible but as far as I know chicka is there all the time.

I will simply vote YES because she will be an excellent GM. So chicka you got my back ! :wink:

Syz got a very good point, some peoples like Chicka are well know from the player community from their presence in game but also from their knowledge of the game.
This last is also an other good point that I did not seen said previously.

I don't agree with first point. Having maybe 2 more GMs would only make the load of actual ones lighter. And actual GMs are strictly respectful about roleplay.
On the second point I am sure that a lot of GHP members didn't agree with the "follow rule", simply because they used auto follow as most players did or because they used bots; having an opinion that differs from the rule doesn't mean that you don't follow it.
I vote no because I think Mom is sometimes too fast on her judgments and definitive in her opinions (about people), and thus can make some big mistakes. I don't want to see her making such one as a GM.
I vote no because if wee need extra GMs, they should be now chosen among european, asian, or australian players. 5 on american continent is far enough.
