I should be given administrative status, of some sort or another, the highest authoritative possible over the forums of ILP.
Why, my massively sigged friend?
I would first wish to adjust the registration-system, to help filter out more of the endless porno-spammers.
Next, I would like a complete review of all of the staff, especially their learnedness in all philosophical sorts of fields [a list of all books they read through, a general IQ test record, and the age, for example, should all be considered].
Persons like yourself have [most likely] spent allot of time learning, so I would consider you staff-worthy, and also worthy of a higher authoritative position.
Banning should be based upon votes from older members whom have been here for a long enough time, as regards whom should stay and whom should be removed.
This forum should have a certian set of goals and objectives.
The meaning and style of a debate is far different than an educational resource accumulation. For example, “what’s your favorite philosopher” sorts of threads should have been replaced by a large list of URLs, translations and manuscripts of all of those most interesting philosopher’s works.
There would be many other things too, if the staff pooled their concepts of change, and also if the staff so happened to be expanded/refined.
Yeah me too. I could be the tyrannical overlord of the hall of questions.
Surely, I would not mind having an excess of staff.
If you were learned enough [I’m guessing you’ve studied allot?], and if you actually wanted some sort of rank/responsabilities, I think it would be good for you to gain modship.
Thanks for your suggestions Dan~, just put $10,000 into the ILP paypal account and we’ll get you sorted out with admin access.
I just wanted highest authoritative status, for a certain time period, not actual ownership, therefor this has nothing to do with finance. ![]()
Oh right…silly me, if that’s all you want then no problem! If I just push this button…
Oh come on…
He didn’t push the button yet.
He’s probably just imagining the beauty and freedom of such an improvement in administration and moderation.
Fantastic thoughts slow actions.
I would like to be known as the resident asshole at this website by all administrators so that my fury as a accomplished ILP philosopher may be known to all guests who come here.

Can I get special asshole status please?
Joker if I was a mod I would hook you right up.
I’m thinking a small picture of an ass/donkey, at the bottom of each person’s sig, who’s a certified and qualified official asshole.
I think if I had that asshole status I’d probably get out of hand trying to make sure I lived up to it.
(Smacks his gavel hammer down.) Hear, Hear I concur!
I completely agree. However, (Notice how I smoothly incorporated the introductionary word however and added the comma), I think that it will be funny when one of the “big shots” reads this and says, “I am going to delete all of the people”. We would never see each other again! Oh well, you guys are on your own…
You, sir, are a wikiphilosopher.
