You're saying that facetiously and it's really funny, but I'm going to make a serious tryhard post right now. My usual strategy is just to be jackass so maybe I'll try making a real argument for once:

The system for picking mods has been broken from the beginning. I think at first the various admins were competitive players and the competitive players wanted to keep the current system so that we could maintain the power, but the admin is no longer a competitive player. The mod team is filled with people who are not competitive players, and a good portion of them have cheated in competitive games, account shared with users who are banned from the site, or do not even venture into competitive games. The competitive aspect of the site will not last without a drastic change to the current moderation system whether you want to admit it or not. This isn't even the first time that the mod team has been all screwed up, not even close. If we do not find a way to get good competitive players onto the mod team to moderate the competitive games, we are not going to have competitive games forever. I like to screw around on the forums while I'm on the internet, but I am largely just a member of this site for the competitive mafia. I don't give a dang about any of the rest of it really. Whether you agree with how I conduct myself most of the time or not, I really hope that people begin to recognize that there is a real problem with cheaters and sandbox players being mods if you actively play competitive mafia and want to see it thrive.

Don't get too worked up. Mods are great.
Mods are wonderful. HAHAhA. We're having such happy times.
THIS IS WONDERFUL. I LOVE THE MODS.
WHY WOULD ANYONE NOT BE PLEASED WITH THE MODS LEADERSHIP?
Just the thought, is hard to comprehend.

not really, a lot of people disliked me as a mod for no good reason (see: caroline, justrec, etc.). sometimes the correct opinions such as ours get outweighed by a sheer numbers game.

i for one just think admins shoudl be more free form with their mod teams. by that i mean be willing to kill mods.

No good reason. That's a good one.

I drank cider. it was nasty.

IQ isnt much of the issue here as other things is it now

i like it being that the admin considers the opinions of the more important em poeple such as ourselves.

I've suggested IQ test before, and I was told that I was being rude.

How about an IQ test

Okay, an impeachment button is a horrible idea. I bet there is a good way to implement the same concept though.

also, people are just going to vote for the mod that gives them violations (i.e. cheaters voting to impeach mods that give them cheating vios)

I will admit it, I want some say in the matter. I think it's ridiculous that an admin who has played mostly classic mafia and fool training 3 is in charge of picking the competitive mods. I think the competitive players should be able to shape the mod team, in some way. Aside from arguably genneh (who I've never played with) and goodbar, there are no strong competitive players on the mod team, and the competitive aspect of the site will not live forever without mods that care about it.

It could be implemented in another way. I think it's downright necessary to keep the site going past a certain point.

i think we should just have sharia law and instead of impeaching mods we just stone them to death.

better solution imo

Why would an admin who doesn't play competitive mafia think he's the best person to pick competitive mafia mods in the first place

abc would go wild with it

Why can't we have a mod impeachment button? It would be simple for Lucid to implement. It could just be a button you can click once you have a certain amount of points, and if a certain number of users vote to impeach the mod their mod keys are removed automatically. Let the admin be in charge of picking mods sure, but the admin isn't always around. The community should be able to fire its moderators in my opinion, and if that idea is implemented I think the competitive aspect of this website will be able to sustain itself longer.
