too bad most politicians are still in the belief that roundabout trumps a traffic light

at least in my jurisdiction

ArtOfCode

Here the politicians seem to leave the transport design to the transport engineers, fortunately.

Trevor Clarke

hey thanks @trichoplax I didnt see that I have been with family

I did it now tho

A: Who should moderate this site?

My name is Trevor Clarke, I live in Toronto. I have been a part of the Stack Exchange community for over 2 years. Throughout my years I have spent time doing front and back end web development along with licensing and other open source projects. I have been with Open source from when it...

ratchet freak

We keep telling them that the extra setup lanes should be longer but they keep them too short to do their jobs properly.

ArtOfCode

Silly governments :)

@TrevorClarke nice :)

ratchet freak

9:28 PM

@ArtOfCode penny pinching more likely

it's less road to lay

ArtOfCode

And that too :)

Trevor Clarke

@ArtOfCode wow look at that! One downvote already!

lol

nm they retracted it whoever it was

ArtOfCode

Ouch...

Trevor Clarke

yup

ArtOfCode

@TrevorClarke They did? I'm still seeing it...

Trevor Clarke

9:36 PM

they did but its back again

ArtOfCode

-_-

Trevor Clarke

yup

art of code +1 for u tho

ArtOfCode

Ta :)

And good luck to you too :)

Trevor Clarke

how long do the temp mods stay?

@ArtOfCode any idea??

ArtOfCode

@TrevorClarke Until the end of public beta, so variable

Anywhere from about 9 months to several years

Trevor Clarke

9:39 PM

wow

ArtOfCode

I think we'll be pretty average - 2 years, maybe

ratchet freak

@ArtOfCode unless reelected

ArtOfCode

@ratchetfreak of course, but there's no guarantee of that

If you do a good pro-tem job then you've got a brilliant reference, but it's not certain

Trevor Clarke

how many people do you think will nominate themselfs?

ArtOfCode

It varies... 5 seems to be fairly average. We had about that many on Worldbuilding

@TrevorClarke ^

Trevor Clarke

9:47 PM

thanks

was i too late?

do you think i have a chance?

@ArtOfCode ^?

ArtOfCode

@TrevorClarke It's only just been posted, 3 hours ago... I think you probably do

Trevor Clarke

and its the top 3 right

or does se choose

ratchet freak

CM picks

ArtOfCode

They use the post as advice on who the community want, but it's not binding

Trevor Clarke

@ratchetfreak are you not going to run?

ratchet freak

9:52 PM

no I don't have the commitment

I rarely touch the review queues on the sites I have the rep for them

let alone dealing with the comment flags I hear so much about

Trevor Clarke

guys do you think im too young? should i remove my age from my post

ArtOfCode

You might like it, you never know

ratchet freak

and I don't feel comfortable making those decisions

ArtOfCode

@TrevorClarke Don't worry about your age. We went over that with Ziz earlier, age doesn't matter

Trevor Clarke

ArtOfCode

9:54 PM

You'll be judged on your actions not your age

ratchet freak

@ArtOfCode I choose skip half the time I'm in the review queue

ArtOfCode

Hey at least actions are reversible :)

Trevor Clarke

has anyone seen ziz

do you know where he is

ArtOfCode

He was around earlier

ratchet freak

@Zizouz212 your presence has been requested

ArtOfCode

9:56 PM

@Ziz you around now?

Zizouz212

Where?

Trevor Clarke

btw @ziz i added my nomination

cant believe i missed it

Zizouz212

@ratchetfreak Where would you like me?

ratchet freak

here, trevor was wanting to talk to you

Zizouz212

What's up?

Trevor Clarke

10:03 PM

ArtOfCode

@Mnementh Mod nominations are up. I'm tempted to nominate you...

Zizouz212

I'm here now...

Trevor Clarke

cool

not much

kjust wondering if you were there

Zizouz212

Did you guys all get followers for me? OMG, I'm like...

ArtOfCode

@Zizouz212 not particularly... people are just interested it seems

ratchet freak

10:22 PM

you could drop a line over on engineers.SE's chatroom see if it can get you some more

Zizouz212

10:49 PM

Really, last time I did this I didn't get any followers... It's you guys...

Trevor Clarke

11:09 PM

well @Zizouz212 your doing well compared to me

ArtOfCode

11:24 PM

@TrevorClarke Ziz is talking about an A51 proposal he made, not the nominations

Trevor Clarke

@ArtOfCode are you good at html / css

Zizouz212

lol, check it out!

Urban Planning

Proposed Q&A site for officials and experts involved with urban environments, including the planning and structure of cities and towns, transport networks, green spaces and infrastructure.

Currently in definition.

Trevor Clarke

cant figure out why the padding isnt working on this page

trevorc.ca/photography.php

inbetween the pics

guys

when the site goes into public beta can we expect more upvotes on the questions already asked?

Zizouz212

Most likely, a fresh addition to a community :)

And I'm confident that we'll get a bit since most big sites here are on the technology side, and open source relates to that
