Shrek for Room Owner about culture HOT 27 CLOSED

I'm kind of an outside observer, but this Vap0r guy is doing good things for the community, maybe look into him for Room Owner?

EDIT: you guys realize that Emoji's hurt right? Who ever this Vap0r guy is he might be crying right now

from culture.

Added as RO, it's pretty clear what the outcome is. I know the procedure is 72 hours but this has been open a while and nobody has any problems.

Also can someone close this, because I don't have permission to :)

from culture.

I was under the impression Shrek stopped being RO just due to inactivity. Was there something I missed?

from culture.

@luggage66 when we had room meetings to discuss this a long while ago we decided to let anyone nominate themselves. That policy isn't set in stone and we can vote on it.

In case whoever nominated the RO is an issue - I would like to nominate @darkyen for room owner so he has someone "on the inside" as a nominator.

from culture.

I'd be okay with Shrek as an RO again. I think perhaps a probationary period of say...one month would suffice. Provided that he remains active.

from culture.

Stop trying to take advantage of my removal, you bully 😢

from culture.

I am active, I just don't talk much 😄, I keep an eye on the chat though.

from culture.

I have no objection but his active period, according to SO, is inline with most of us and we have that time period pretty well covered. That may not be accurate if the other time zones just aren't well represented. Is this a vote or a conversation?

from culture.

I do work in US Timezones, yes. But I thought there wasn't a top-limit on ROs?

from culture.

There isn't a strict limit, but we don't want all ROs. It's never good for chat rooms and makes getting a majority vote difficult.

from culture.

There doesn't seem to be much support for this. No action needed.

@kendfrey by our rules - he won:

Changes to room ownership shall be proposed via an issue on this repository. RO proposals will have 72 hours for voting, after which the proposal will be acted on if 50% or more of standing votes are in favour.

However, it wasn't pinned. Would you be fine with voting on this after pinning in the room for 3 days @kendfrey ?

hi

from culture.

I thought votes were started when one of us nominated, not when someone nominates themselves, we talk about maybe starting a vote for a while, then count the votes later when we didn't even know it was a vote.

To quote myself: Is this a vote or a conversation?

from culture.

In other words, we have enough thumbs up to consider it a nomination, then we should start an actual vote.

from culture.

Definitely more active now, what was the reason for dropping RO before?

from culture.

He wasn't around. Busy with other stuff at the time.

from culture.

Also echoing what @ssube said, how many is too many?

from culture.

According to #14 there is no hard limit. Wether your vote based on that is up to you, of course.

from culture.

+1 vote

from culture.

Oh, Darkyen! +1 for sure.

from culture.

+1

from culture.

+1 because Darkyen is my homie.

from culture.

+1 aye

I thought we had already voted, so this is all very surprising. 😲

from culture.

+1
