Well I think Karson is going to be a great admin :/ I'm sure he'd be great with all the technical stuff, so congrats if I didn't say that before (cause apparently I don't think I did). But I don't think Linus wanted to be sounding mad or against anybody. I don't like this mood at all either, but I know where he is coming from. And yes, this is definitely not a good way to go if we are reaching for a level 4 tribe. Bree, you finally explained why you guys chose him, and that's what we were looking for I guess. You didn't answer it like that before, and I guess that's why people kept asking. I never thought he bribed his way in or anything, Linus said, I guess we thought it was something deeper than that but I'm not sure about that anymore. With the secrecy thing, that's what I was kinda thinking about too. I think they're talking about how for some reason, the admins have been very secretive about the future of the Pogotribe. They're very secretive about everything now. Why they choose administrators, and even the smallest changes. Openness and community involvement should be a priority, and it was in the early days. But now the admins have become a sort of exclusive club, moving the tribe along without telling any of us. Not that the admins are doing a bad job or anything. In fact, i've never seen a forum so large that has barely any spam on it. BUT I don't want to turn this thread into a tense arguement since... like you guys said... THIS IS FOR KARSON! So once again, CONGRATS KARSON! I know you'll do a WONDERFUL job as an admin, and I'm sure you deserved it.

You've apparently never been to my relatives weedings.
Aside from that, I hope this thread didn't make you feel bad Karson. We know you will be a great admin, and I apologize if I have said anything to make you upset. Good Luck and Have Fun!

As was said this is not a good way to get to a level 4 tribe and if you are going to act like that then just don't post... Hahahahahahahahahaha! I'm sorry, this line is just way too funny to go overlooked.

I'm sorry, this line is just way too funny to go overlooked. Srsly Zak. Stop trolling plz? Listen, it's none of our business why he was chosen, all that matters is he was chosen and he is a good choice. If they'd made a bad choice, then maybe all the questions and negativity would be a tad more (but not a lot more) acceptable, but everyone here to my understanding thinks Karson is a great choice of admin. If I'm wrong please step up and tell me. He's a great choice, and it's none of our business why they chose him. Butt out people. Show some love for Karson.

NB: I am in no way displeased by the way the admins are running the site, I just gave the situation some thought and came up with a solution. From what I read, some members are annoyed at the fact that the selection process was held in secret. While the bree has stated that the selection process was held in secret purposely. Admins pulling one way, users pulling the other.
If the admins wanted the selection process to be held secretly, they got what they wanted. It has already been held and that is that. but why is the material used for the selection process being kept secret? After all the applications filled in were filled by the users, so there is no harm in it going back to the users.
To fix this situation, I would post ALL the applications.. Karson included and everyone can mix, match and compare. The decision has ALREADY been made, so nothing can change that but at least the users who didn't like the choice could see how the competition was, and maybe understand better the choice.
The admins get to keep the selection process secret, the users get to formulate the answer they want. Both parties are happy.
