These were the first two that came to my mind, too!



I haven't been a member here for a long time, and don't know all the "Master's", the "Guru's", the "Drama Wars", the history between guys, or even the guys that can spend the time it must take to do a thorough job.



I think if you had one or more of these guys:



Accumulator (well spoken, easy to get along with, very nice, digs detailing chat, not a know-it-all but almost does)



Akimel (detailing hobbyist, intelligent debater, very active on the sites, knows a lot of and uses a lot of products)



David Fermani (analytical, interested, seems to dig the new autopia, doesn't shy from a heated debate)



Tim Lingor aka 2hotford (previously a Mod on MOL, knows products and detailing, holds the line, keeps great control of a forum)



PorscheGuy997 (detailing hobbyist, great researcher, very nice, knows products like crazy)



You would be doing your site a great service to get any one of these guys. :high5:

If anyone is saying, "Hey- what about me?!" Sorry... didn't know you wanted it!

Any of those would be a good choice except for that Yakky guy, he's outta control. David F to the list too. I'd actually love to do it, but I have more hobbies/projects and responsibilities than I can handle.
 
I nominate the always irenic Accumulator. He has the right personality to be a moderator, and he knows his stuff.
 
Thanks for the referral David,



I just dont have the time. I maybe have 20 min of free time for emails and forums anymore.



David, Accum, scottwax, would be a few people I recommend
 
I feel honored to have my name thrown in there, but my association with DI and the Ask-A-Pro Blog would make me an inappropriate candidate for this position I believe.



Being a mixed, left-handed male from the mid-west, I can almost understand why I got mentioned; a guy like me is currently America's President, which goes to show my potential ;)





Joking aside, I don't think there's a better candidate for this slot than Accumulater. Very knowledgeable source that everyone has a lot of respect for, and I'm sure everyone has learned something from. Any thread he partakes in becomes a better thread.



Other people that could be mentioned as being great potential candidates based off the information provided (IMO & I'm sure to leave a few good names out no doubt):



David Fermani, Jason from Deep Gloss (used to go by motor city, but I believe he changed his name), Akimel, BigAl, David Saunders of Street Dreams (dsms here I think), Good 'ol Bryan AKA GMBlack3a, Bob Willis, Richie Carbone, SuperBee, and there's one more candidate I can't believe noone mentioned...



Holden!
 
You were my first choice as well. :(



I'd vote for someone who is not a pro, simply because of time commitment.



BigAl

SuperBee



PS: My pro selection would be SCOTTWAX - there isn't a better guy for the job.

Thanks for all the nice comments folks, but at this time I'm not going to be serving as a Moderator.

I would actually like to see who is interested rather than posting who we think fits the role.





That being said I think Akimel would be perfect for a lot of the reasons Kevin listed above. He's very well spoken and has good judgment for those heated debates....pretty sure he's given me some excellent advice in the past on that subject too. ;)



My association with DI and the Ask-A-Pro Blog would also make me an inappropriate candidate. Nor do I feel I'm good for that sort of role.





Just my $.02

Slightly off topic, but with all the new smilies, it took me forever to find that one!

Agreed... well, for the most part. That 'bee guys is kind of a trouble maker...



And David, you need to be on that list, too.



I'd also throw Greg Nichols name into the hat as well, along with tdkennay (spelling?), Eliot Ness, Apollo_Auto and Barry Theal
 
Thanks for the mention David, I'd consider doing it. I've probably made more than my share of opps over the years and could relate to what you shouldn't do.
