Good day, everyone! I am JohnP, and I would like to offer up my candidacy for the moderator election.

I've been active on the site for quite some time, mostly in a learning capacity as my knowledge is mainly in older editions of D&D. One of the things that I like is that in an area of potential contentiousness (i.e. human interaction games) the site has always maintained very high standards and enforced them in an even handed manner.

I do not think my rep score is reflective of my potential contributions as a moderator. I am on SE in general on fairly close to a daily basis, and I have moderator status on three other sites, including one from private beta to now, which also included a major scope change.

One of the most important aspects of the moderation position is listening to the constituency. While there is an occasional need for the mod hammer, quite a bit of the position is merely enforcing the rules that the community agrees upon. This is done through the voting process and discussions on the meta site.

I believe that I would be a good (and in time excellent) moderator for RPG.SE, and I look forward to the chance to serve the community!
