I say Wylted claim to be president of DART, and partially out of spite, partially cuz' it'd be cool - I wanted to see if anyone is actually interested in nominating themselves for an election to be president of the website... what would it entail? I have literally no idea, bragging points? Some weird mod position? Ask Debate.Art, I don't know. 

Reply if you're interested

Wylted bucks aren't an accepted form of currency here.

I feel bad for you. 5 wylted bucks just got deposited to your account. Now you can stop saying hippy stuff like "money doesn't exist" and buy yourself something nice

I nominate Wylted, but also object to the entire process. Wylted is the legitimate president

I want you to be my running mate, Wylted. I have no interest in power or, ya know, doing stuff. I haven't your Machiavellian wiles, either. But I was never inducted into the DDO Hall of Fame, and that is an injustice that we can right here and now.

Be my Dick Cheney, Wylted.

As I recall  this position as established on DDO and particularly the regular elections for that position quickly devolved into vicious popularity contests, the primary purpose of which was to manufacture contention and gossip within the ranks and added not one ounce of value to content or increased order or improved functionality.  Quite the opposite, seemingly.

DDO called it an election for president but the exercise would have been more accurately described a gladiatorial match from which the winner was rewarded with an increased measure of hate.

I oppose any such contest and promise to totally ignore the authority and advice of any jerkwad so elected.

You will still be given money when I implement a UBI, so it's not really a system you can escape 

We are all in this together

What about the shadow hand of DART? Even banning won't stop you. I'll be a happy puppet.

We'll have to do something about this origami guy, though.

I am thinking false flag, we blame on him. Like the group who false flagged 9/11 to get the united states to attack muslims. 

I'll need cooperation from the mods and the community, but enemies of the state will need to be labeled somehow. I am thinking they should have some sort of forced picture as a profile pic. Maybe a pink asterisk, to quickly identify and group dissenters together. If an asterisk is too difficult, perhaps a star of some sort or a circle.

I was thinking I'll seduce him in some Russian hotel and pee on him while you record it. Probably should take this to PM though.

Yes, I'll have the mods delete these messages so they aren't used against us at some later date

I actually do think it is a good idea to have the president be involved in reporting to moderators about the site and checking in on things. I think they should actively work with a moderation team
