Now, I'll start off by saying that I don't expect any moderators to do this, but I'm wondering if we will have any way to prevent this should the unthinkable happen.

Now, Mods have the power to edit polls, right?

Now, hypotheticlly, let's say a moderator stands for president, and desperately wants to win. What if the said Mod decides to edit the poll in his favour, so he wins?

Do we have some way to stop this happening?


P.S. I trust that the mods are trustworthy, but I'm just wondering.

i trust my mods to ,so no need wondering :rolleyes:
i know what you mean 6chan ,but we can't really win something debating over this.
Everybody knows the answers to youre thread ,but there is no way changing that ,so we all have to continue trusting our mods.

I expect no trouble's.

That said ,i think this discussion is better buried.

Not criticizing you 6Chan ,i admire youre vigilance in preserving the democracy. ;)

:king: Everybody ,hear my words:
Don't panic ,President ducky I ensures the trustworthyness of our mod's ,just have trust in my words.

Hmm, trust the president?

"I am not a crook." -US President Nixon
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman." -US President Clinton
etc.

I think I'll pass ;)

CM, I know what you mean. When I realized that, I laughed my mass off.
(btw, I just made a translation to my long time sign, is it nice now?...)

I'd trust clinton and nixon with my life...
*sinker*
:lol: :lol: :lol:

but seriousley, I dont think Mods will do this. even I am not so power hungry as to try something like that, and when you say "even I am not so power hungry" realating to Pellaken, you KNOW it means something

Due to the circumstances ,there is really nothing that you can get as resolve to this issue.As i said ,what 6chan stated was a known fact ,but we all no that this fact's (nomather what) won't change because we bring the issue up.

The only think that can come out such a thread ,is endless bickering ,leading nowhere.It wouldn't be constructive for the atmosphere.

so what's the value of this thread ,i'm sorry to say it's none ,because it's bring up a 0-trust atmosphere's.

So why waist more valuable debating words on this? :)

Tomorow i'm starting the game :D

Don't worry, the muckraking press will be here to dish the dirt on any foul play.

Do I detect the beginnings of a media mogul and his newspaper - "The Daily Muckraker". ;)

You can go home.
