We Need A Board Rep

if elected, I promise to give zero (0) fucks about any of this and ignore any purported responsibilities, because it sounds completely asinine

>>15271173
now isn't that just pleasant

>>15271159
5 minute mark! Run soon or risk being left behind in the vote!

>>15271176
My friend I'm just here to ensure that the silent majority of /m/, who I'd be willing to guess also give zero (0) fucks, is properly represented in this election

I have been on /m/ for 5 years and have been to various anime and tokusatsu communities. I have seen the entirety of Gundam, the entirety of Ultraman (including the Ultra Q spinoffs), the entirety of Kamen Rider, three quarters of all Super Sentai, the entirety of Macross (minus Delta), the entirety of VOTOMS, the entirety of Patlabor, the entirety of the Braves, most of Mazinger, most of Getter Robo, and I have seen over 400 mecha anime including many which only had a few episodes subtitled and nearly one hundred tokusatsu. I am also a builder of high grade gunpla and Warhammer miniatures. I am on /m/ daily and am extremely familiar with mecha otaku culture.

>>15271187
you do understand that you'll still have to make a confirmation, correct? there is nothing stopping you from running as a pacifist, just know that re-elections will occur if you don't follow protocol.

This is stupid. OP is stupid. All of you are stupid. And now I'M stupid because I had to look at this fucking thread.

>>15271190

1 minute mark! 2 candidates as of now.

>>15271191
Understood and acknowledged.

Interesting ruse, Duel, but at least you have a trip now.

poll will be first to 10 votes or 30 minutes, whichever occurs first. CONTINUE VOTING

in a turn of events, Dr Faggotmunchkins has gained a vote! Archivist still leading 1 point over orochi

>>15271242

>>15271240

Orochi making a steady comeback at 4 votes with Archivist at 6. Doctor still at 1, but there is still time for a 180, anything can happen!

>>15271277
if the winner does not make their post to /qa/ or /m/ within the 10 minute mark there will be a relection, in which case you will be added to the poll, so if there is, don't worry.

Archivist 2 votes away from victory with no change on other candidates. It appears likely that /m/ will be a pacifist board. Make sure to continue voting!

>>15271289
Archivist has reached the 10 vote mark. He will be required to confirm by 21:55 est.

Polls are now closing. I hereby accept that I am board representative of /m/, and in concurrence with my campaign promises, I will hereby do fuckall with it.

remember to hide and report bait, and keep enjoying /m/ as it has been lads

>>15271493
man you /m/ people are weird

have you not had board elections before? you can't randomly make a poll like that. The whole thread was done pretty shitty but it did follow (or manipulated?) the rules.

Stop being crybabies and realize this is actually good for your board.

>>15271507
I wouldn't say I _want_ it, but I want to represent the people who don't care about this shit. (Shitposting every once in a while can be cathartic, though.)

I won the earlier one and think it's a bit silly that OP goes to such lengths to force this thing. So if you're offering, I'll take it.

You seem like an alright guy m8, I just don't want this kind of drama to be a regular thing.

>>15271522
And while I'm at it, even /I'm/ not sure if you can 'pass on' a job like that. Isn't fair to the voters. In all honesty, it would call for a revote which seems really fucking retarded.

Never that I've seen, and I've been here since like 2007 (not to play the "muh oldfags" card).

>you can't randomly make a poll like that.
What lets OP "randomly make a poll" and that anon not? All 4channers are created equal, that's kind of the basic premise of this entire site's culture.

>Stop being crybabies and realize this is actually good for your board.
Is there any actual evidence of mods viewing this as legitimate? Are there commuications between "board reps" and mods that have been recorded? Until such evidence is provided, it's pretty clearly a mindless dramu circlejerk.

This is a whole thread of stupid arguing about tripfags that could be a whole thread of stupid arguing about giant robots, as nature intended.

>>15271533
I'm gonna go with him on this. /m/'s pretty democratic and also slow. So, I'll concede the job to Archivist here, in the hopes of civility returning to /m/.

Oh, I know what the _point_ is:
>a representative to go to /qa/ and essentially speak in a clusterfuck about what the board's wants/needs are.
What I _need_ is proof that such a position is _effective_. I've asked for proof of mods interacting with reps and changing policy. None has been provided.

Without any evidence, this is less something for the good of the board and more an empty title used to stoke someone's ego. I care enough about my board to not want it to be used for that.

If I am so ignorant, you are welcome to enlighten me. To mock ignorance instead of correcting it is one of the ultimate failings in a debate.

Until then,
