Interesting. I didn't know that. Is reporting spam, to benefit everyone in the board not different than reporting tax activity or other things that screw a person over thoughr?

In fact it's different of course. But you won't be able to prove that you're making reports to benefit everyone rather than trying to achieve own goals. That's why this happening.

Anyway, based on report history, I'd say Xandry is indeed a good candidate, however I don't know how active they are in the Russian section, nor if they want the job, etc.

Unfortunately, I have many examples of how good reporter became an absolutely authoritarian moderator and committed multiple abuses of power. Last one was becool at the btc-e.com and that was my fault. I've checked a lot of his reports and recommended him as moderator... I'll never do such mistake again. I regretted it many times and supported the cancellation of his appointment a bit later. Roll Eyes

Balthazar has banned more more than a few times from the BTC-E chat, but you said you didn't want the position anyway, so a semi vouch is there if you want it.

Yep, I'm a mod at btc-e since 2012.

It's unfortunately but I can't guarantee that I'll have enough time for full moderation because I'm already moderator of three resources. That's why I won't participate in these polls but I wouldn't mind to bring some order in the technical subsections in case if theymos will make such decision. Technical subsections only, without this "politics" trash can.
