Nunsense Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Let's let it die, shall we folks? At least I have never received a death threat, which CatherineM posted once that she did! Please don't let's make this thread about me. There will always be unhappy people in the world, that's the old 'haters gonna hate' quote that I didn't understand for the longest time. I used to think it was a negative quote, but really, it just means that we can't change the behavior of others, we can only try to set an example whenever possible, and to apologize when we go off the rails ourselves. Obviously some of the things that I have posted in the past have offended people, so I won't be casting stones at others when I am living in a glass house myself. Please let this thread be about who wants to be mod and other positive things. Ok? Good. Back on track again..... :) :clap:
Perigrina Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 dUSt, I would like to withdraw my offer to act as mod for VS. I have had some nasty emails about this personally, which in themselves don't bother me, but I do think if some people feel so strongly about NOT wanting me to be a mod here, then it would be potentially divisive for VS if the choice was me. What we want here on VS is peace, not disharmony, so in the interests of VS, I have no problem stepping back. I heartily recommend Matermisericordae because she has been on phatmass since 2009, has spent most of her time here in VS, and has even set up two websites to help discerners, one for mature age and one to help potential postulants find items and clothing for entrance. I have no objection to anyone else who has been nominated either and will fully support whomever you appoint. :) PAX CHRISTI. While I did not feel strongly enough about it to email anyone, I did wonder if someone whom some people might experience as abrasive would be the best choice. I agree with nunsense that a person who does not elicit such reactions is a better option.

Catherine Therese Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 It's interesting that this is one of the more famous pictures doing the rounds online from the conclave. Anyone who has ever prayed the penitential psalms would be familiar with that line "I lie awake, like a lonely bird on the roof...."
Credo in Deum Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) rotfl Aren't there any guys in here? Looking to appoint a VS Patriarch, you sly dog you? Edited July 31, 2014 by Credo in Deum
Nunsense Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 credo in deum is a guy, make him do it It might be good to have a male influence around here. Hmmmm
Nihil Obstat Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Aren't there any guys in here? ....... Fine, fine, you twisted my arm; I nominate myself. I am the best choice because I do not currently know about 2/3 to 3/4 of the regular VSers, and since I am not discerning I have no emotional investment in any of the common arguments. That means few, if any regulars on VS actively dislike me, which is better than I can say for the rest of the site. I have lots of spare time because I am currently working full time at a poor excuse for a store which averages well under $1000 per day in sales, so about five of the eight hours I work are spent trying to find something to do. Mostly that means re-reading threads I have already read. Instead I can be productive and read VS threads. Aha........ is he joking, is he serious? Who knows? What a strange and obnoxious person that Nihil Obstat is. :disguise:

Well, for my part, I actively like you. :blowkiss: So, if you get the ball, run with it! :)
