    We like having an unbalanced moderation staff.

    So; please explain what problem you see and how your suggestion would be a fix for this preconceived "balance" problem.

    Jack's actual Statement: "------>This suggestion was prompted by Dark Soul, so if you get pissed off, take it out on HIM and not ME<--------
    USF's deceitful Reply: "Even though you lied about this being an idea from Dark Soul".
    So, now that we've cleared up who the 'Liar' is, we can move on to the Topic.

    Let's just go by the facts:
    1. "Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I'm fucked," Trump said."
    2. This has doomed any chance Trump had for a second Term.
    3. In response, the American People will probably elect a more moderate and Democrat to the Presidency, like a Sanders/Kamala Harris Ticket.
    4. Thousands of newly inspired will flock to Political Sites like JPP.
    5. In anticipation of the 'newly inspired', JPP will want to have an appearance of 'Fair & Balanced'.
    6. As it is now, the Moderators: Alpha Dog Leader of Red Team (Grind), Vice Overlord (Captain Billy), and Crazy Church Lady (Phantasmal) have cultivated an 'appearance' of Far Right-Wing Religious Conservatives (naturally, this is from MY perspective as a Moderate Centrist that is Unbiased).
    7. Hence, beginning a process of debate within the 'Administration' of including a 'Blue Team' affiliated member might be in order.

    Just a suggestion in the ol' Suggestion Box, USF. No need to get your panties in a twist.

    Yes, it is cleared up; because you are and always have been a liar.

    AND / while you posted a really good word salad; could you please point out which one of your many ideas, are the ones that answer the question of:

    So; please explain what problem you see and how your suggestion would be a fix for this preconceived "balance" problem.

    If English isn't your first language, get DS to explain it to you.

    You've failed to explain how the way things are is affecting anything or how your suggestion would be for the better.

    If you're unable to explain, then get someone to help clarify it for you.

    I meant that statement psychologically. Also, I am a 4th Degree Knight of Columbus. I don't think there is such a thing as a 4th Degree Lay Catholic.

    There's a lot of 'traffic' here for three Moderators. My guess is they will need to add a Moderator at some point. There's people like Legina, Teflon Don, USF, just jumping up and down, screaming, and waving both arms around, to get the next slot. (They all may deserve it, they know the Rules pretty darn well). To the Majority of Blue Team, it looks lopsided. I'm just making a suggestion here that the next Moderator should be from the Blue Team. I have no one particular in mind. I don't know if any Blue Team has the 10 years in at JPP. I don't know if Blue Team has someone that knows the Rules as well as the 3 previously mentioned Red Team members. Cordiality. Getting along. Being able to work together would be a Prime Factor, I don't know if that exists here?
    We may have to accept that USF becomes Vice Overlord #2.

    It seems like a Amazon refugee should get a chance.

    Unless you can show this affects his MOD decisions and ability.
