To N_S:
I thought it ( the technical mod offer over: I can try..

On Mondays and Wednesdays, I go to college so Tuesdays are busy with college work.

2. Don't expect me to fix all the problems , I have much to learn.

Give me two weeks to get used to software and then i will report my findings.

3. I want mod lounge access.

4. I report directly to you and Kijin.

5. I need to know a month in advance when the transfer to new domain is.

6. A tag
To the members/ fellow mods:

1.I can read all your PMS , so please avoid sensitive material/illegal material in your pms.

2. I want to be introduced on skype to my colleagues so I can associate faces and voices.

3. All gimmicks must be closed unless approved by admins.

I think he is assuming he will automatically have access to them, he is not reuqesting access. He is just warning people ahead of time to watch their PM's.

Onar, Sorry for the delay.

Before we move too hastily, I'd like to tell you more about what we are proposing:

- As a technician, you would help us with some cool things like programming with javascript to improve the card and deck tags for MTG, and also adapting it for the Vs. system (in which you'd work with checkbox. These are things which I think could be of good use also for magecraft in the future when you can move the site to a personal server of yours. You could then use the same code you'd develop here with us on your site.

- Anothr thing is that you would work with me in moving the site to the new diestoremoval domain. This would imply helping me with BIND protocols, DNS stuff, etc... Again, I think it could be an enriching experience for you too, because you would gain knowledge to assist you in later moving your site elsewhere (I am assuming you will not be staying in yourg33k forever right?

- obviously
you'd have mod lounge access and admin access

As for your other requests, I'd have two caveats to present you with:

1) We don't interact with the SQL tables, the software does it by itself and there is really no reason for needing backend access, and no reason to read PM's. Everyone on this site is personally responsible for using this forum for only legal ventures and its on the terms of service you sign when you register. So no need to be searching PM's really. This won't be happening.

2) As for the gimmicks, it is my opinion that they are part of the game. It is unreasonable to think that we can police the internet and find out the identity of every single person on this forum. I think we have seen how damaging these obsessional delusions of stalking/uncovering identities on the internet can become (see the spying on many of our members by iridium) and I do not wish to take the same path than the iridium, and you can understand why. So unless you can explain me exactly why someone
browsing with TOR is going to compromise the site's safety, that's not a thing we are willing to do.

All in all, we are a very nice bunch, and I think we would have much to learn with each other regarding website construction and management. Again if this goes forward, I'm happy to be a vintage mod on your site in return although I must warn you I've never played a single game of Vintage in my whole life despite owning some Black Lotus et al.

Btw we never met by skype, we just hang around here

4. I report directly to you and Kijin.

6. A tag
.
#4 We have other admins, you will probably have to talk to them at times
#6 none of us have titles here, so it will be the same for you. Feel free to make your custom title "Tech of MTGC" or something.

Otherwise I think N_S addressed the rest, hope to see you around as a tech!

I am partially joking. Do not abuse the power of your station. This is not a joke.

You have to understand that between MTGNews and MTGS, various staff at all levels and stations have done exceedingly inappropriate things with their stations. Saying before you even have the job that you will immediately do all of the things that got people on those other sites into trouble and drummed up controversy is incredibly unscrupulous even in jest, given the sensitive nature of your position. I would vote against hiring you on that merit alone. I alone have exchanged password information with N_S via PM here, which is a sensitive and trust-based exchange between us, not you, not other staff or members.

No we don't have them because we don't want them. We are all equal here I don't need some title to separate me because I'm a mod. Same goes for you.

kijin : I have never abused my powers like MTGS does regularly.

Pinkfloyd: tag won't happen , it was my wording that was wrong.
