'''PLEASE READ THE WHOLE THREAD BEFORE COMMENTING. Voting on promotion threads blindly is just awful.'''

Hey there! ...um, I didn't think this intro through. I suppose if you're here, though, you likely have a (vague) understanding of who I am, and what I'm doing. (If that isn't obvious, it's running for content moderator.

''' "Why are you running?" ''' Remember that staff reboot a few months ago or so? Ever since, we've had a severe lack of content moderators. And while there are quite a few administrators to back that up, the lack of positions that are sheer content moderators is, suffice it to say, lacking.

To add to this, there's also a bunch of discussion moderators just below it. I feel that discussion mods should try and help fill the gap between them and administrators by joining the content moderation forces, and if nobody else but me will, well, who will?

''' "Why should I vote you?" (pros) '''
 * I've already helped improve mainspace greatly by adding the Unused template.
 * More importantly, in the span of almost 10 or so months, I've accumulated, count them, 1,521 mainspace edits! That's, like, 5.0 6 edits a day or so! And while I have slowed down due to school, I have zero plans of stopping.
 * I have helped lead movements to obtain more information about certain topics that need them, such as PvZ:AS.
 * I moderate other things, so I have good experience in running stuff. You should know by now I moderate /r/fnafcringe and am the founder of /r/OsamuSato, but I've also begun moderating /r/inanimateinsanity, which is the official subreddit for a webseries that has tons of fans! (granted, the subreddit is still in its infancy since it's not been officially announced on the official II channel yet, but hopefully soon!)
 * I have good experience in editing wikis. In addition to here, I've also made edits on the DROD Wikia, and the Homestar Runner Wiki in the past.
 * ...and, of course, we're lacking in Content Moderators. If nobody else is gonna step up to the job, I might as well try.

 "Anything I should know? (cons) 
 * I feel as though to remind people that due to anxiety, some people might not even see these as cons, and I generally am harsh on myself. So... yeah.
 * Note that I'm not gonna be repeating the details to everything I said those last two times. I've said those enough times by now. But, I will repeat the basics.'''
 * Social anxiety is a pain. Makes communicating 5 times more difficult, and the fact that it's anxiety makes me 10 times more likely to put myself down as horrible for minute things.
 * Having autism (aspergers) is also a pain. Makes communicating 5 times more difficult, on top of the x5 multiplier from social anxiety.
 * I have been given warnings in the past. They were 1 week long at the longest IIRC, and no bans occured as a result of them, but I can see some people might be turned off.
 * As a wee 10 year old or so, I actually used to have an old account on wikia that was globally blocked. I was dumb, immature, and didn't know how serious wikis were, but I know lots of people would be on my case if they didn't know this. And for reference, I'm 15 years old.
 * The main issue, and the sub-issues within them, are my decreased ability to edit mainspace currently. Because:
 * School - Specifically, classes. While I go to an online school, and my workload is rather light, there's a lot of classes. Like, a LOT of them. So it does get in the way.
 * Personal Matters - I've got a lot of stuff going on personally (read: off-wiki) too. It's not anything MAJOR, but I still have stuff to do off the wiki, which might get in the way. And that includes video games, moderating other stuff, you get the picture.
 * To illustrate the idea: I have a variation of a draw I have to make for a friend/canadian, I have to roleplay off-site with close friends, I have school again, I've been watching let's plays I follow, and I've also been playing Splatoon and DROD (latter is SUPER FUN BTW PLS TRY IT IT HAS A FREE DEMO). Point is that my day is spent doing what might seem like nothing, but I'm busy doing nothing. It's just perspective, really.
 * Budget Cuts

''' Anything else? ''' Um... Not really off the top of my head. If you have questions, please direct them to my face. Unless it's related to personal stuff.
