Since the Big Guy JPham jumped in here and said that these new "promotions" were news to him, is this some sort of Palace Coup organized by Ironman? Gad! The thirst for power extending into the sacred corridors of IE.

If true, I would like to state that I am the King's Man and am loyal to the Throne! And I will use my 2500 pound Red Bombs in his service.

Not that he'd need any help merely extermination any insect infestation by the flash of a keyboard.....

Seniority isn't a requirement but with seniority often comes an understanding of the sort of discourse we hope to have around here and the exacting standards to which we hope to hold posters. It also often comes with the respect of others and an investment in the community. Finally, we look for posters who can balance continuing to engage in vigorous and candid debate while also practicing professional, tempered judgment. It's not an exact formula, but those are the general guidelines on our minds when these things come up.

Also, you have to absolutely loathe yourself.

Based on these criteria, had the deer stuck around he was on the short list.

You must be a male U.S. citizen, age 18 to 28, a high school graduate, have 20/20 vision or vision that can be corrected to 20/20, have a minimum ASVAB score of 165 for GS-MC-EI or 220 for VE-MK-MC-CS. You must also pass the PST or physical screening test, which is designed to test physical readiness.

We also look at ACT and SAT scores, extra-curricular activities, service projects, grades, special awards (Eagle Scout), and recommendations.

I lied about my SAT score.

You forgot to mention "Need to know at least 3 presidents, living or dead. Be able to paint yourself in water color, be a member of at least 2 secret societies and applying for a 3rd. Be able to recite Pi to the 1024th decimal."

These are implicit in the "exacting standards" requirement.

If NDinL.A. left us wanting of any particular of the mentioned criteria, I think we can all agree with what he's had to put up with there must be no lack of self-loathing in him to have agreed to do it for as long as he has.

But in all seriousness and in his defense (I know your comment was aspiring for jest, but I know NDinL.A. has his detractors somewhere out there), this place is not the place that it is except for the time he put into helping us clean it up. Back when I was handed the reins, the site was pretty rough around the edges and while I had an idea about what sort of tone and direction I wanted us to take, it could not have been accomplished without a guy like NDinL.A. I hope we can all appreciate that much.

A little off topic, but what the hell, this made me think of it...

I had a dream the other night that my hair had grown long. When I woke up I couldn't think of a good way to describe to my wife how it looked. Then I thought, it looked just like He-Man's hair style...I have weird dreams.

So Hollywood's rant was pretty wild, ay? Can't we all just get along?

JPham - if possible, could this be the impetus that allows the creation of an "ignore" option on IE? I know its been discussed in the past, but at least it might avoid the public blood-letting if folks who don't particularly care for each other bump heads.

I remember those heady days of yesteryear...people posting by stone tablets fax into a central office... (cue Flintstones flashback)...

Just kidding big guy...no, really....I am.....
