Board Thread:Requests for User Rights/@comment-30211527-20160901004536

I was originally going to do this in a week, but I feel confident and ready enough to run.


 * -|Requirements=
 * 100 mainspace edits. I have around 750 at the time of this writing.
 * You must have been on the wiki for at least two months. Check!
 * You must have not been blocked or banned from chat for more than one week for the past six months. I have never been kicked, banned, or even warned, on the entire wiki.
 * More than 50% of the votes must be supportive. Your choice.
 * -|Pros/Cons=

Pros

 * Very active on chat. On for almost 3-5 hours a day!
 * I am a very nice user. I try to help out new users, and try to make sure everyone is having a good day. I act well with other users.
 * Chat dies around 2-7 PM in my timezone. Many mods are afk or simply offline during this time, meaning it is primetime for socks and raiders to approach. Generally, there will be around 1-2 mods, so I would be able to fill this gap.
 * I have encountered this a couple of times, mainly once when the only mod, Leo, was afk, and two socks were attacking chat. I could have prevented the situation if I had the rights at the time. I can prevent future attacks like this during this time period, as many mods are not on at this time.

Cons
These rights would allow me to make quick work of sockpuppets and vandals in on chat. Due to my timezone, I can cover when many mods will be offline. I have looked through the user creation log and block log, to be aware of new accounts and similarities to banned users, respectively. This means socks can be identified by me. This means more protection in this time with a small amount of mods. These rights will help me contribute more to the wiki and allow me to help it out even more. This will show that I am capable of having rights. True, I am a fairly new user on this wiki, but I believe I act responsible enough to become a chat mod. This is exactly why I waited an 3 and a half weeks from when I could run for these rights. I wanted to increase my chat activity, be more nice and friendly to users, as well as not giving of a powerhungry vibe. That is most likely because of timezones. If you lived in my timezone, the USA EST timezone, then you would see how active I am. If you think I am lying from saying this, you can consult another user in that timezone if you want to, or check the chat logs, however, they might not be entirely accurate as I might just be afk and not chatting. I don't want to sound like a very boring person, right? I want to be enthusiastic and be interactive, not a boring guy. Thank you for reading my reasons to become a chat moderator. If you haven chosen to support, I would like to thank you. If you are opposing, please list reasons how I can improve for these rights, and I would still like to thank you for considering and reading m I hope I can contribute to this wiki in bigger and better ways!
 * I might be editing an article and not be talking on chat.
 * -|How would these rights benefit the wiki, me, and why do I want these rights?=
 * -|Addressing some opposition reasons=
 * You are too new.
 * You are powerhungry!
 * I never see you on chat.
 * You joke around to much/are not serious enough.
