This is the official moderator nomination thread for Highly Technical.

We will compile a list of nominees through Monday night. Voting on nominees will take place in this thread Tuesday through Thursday. The candidate with the most votes will have the opportunity to become a moderator for this and one other secondary non-social forum of their choosing.

Either before or after the vote, a candidate can withdraw his or her name from consideration. In the event that the candidate with the most votes withdraws his or her name, the candidate with the next most votes will be extended the opportunity, and so on.

AnandTech resevers the right to veto nominations at our discretion. We will do our best to allow you to pick the candidates you feel best suit the needs of your forum, but we won't allow members who can't follow guidelines to be put in a position to enforce them on others.

We will keep a list of nominees in this thread. If a nominee has been vetoed or has withdrawn their name from consideration, a note will be made next to their name. This will be done to prevent multiple posts nominating the same member. If the member you want to moderate this forum is already on the list, please don't post.

Please only post the name of the nominee in your replies. Please make sure it is spelled correctly before posting.

NOMINEES:

CycloWizard
PolymerTim
Rubycon
CTho9305
f95toli
silverpig
BrownTown

redarmy
peter (is Peter, Nanostuff? because he declined)

There's at least half a dozen people I'd nominate. I'm just not sure if it's appropriate that a mod nominates people, so I'll abstain for now.

It's more then appropriate, merit should take the place of silly ideas about 'unbiasedness' No one is truly unbiased, plus this is the net, it's an imperfect measure anyway. Can't hurt to suggest those you feel most qualified.
