Hi Tyke,

I added you to my friends list yesterday after looking at your website and reading about you. My first impression is a good one and I really think you have potential to become a moderator and a friend.

However, I can't honestly vouch for you (yet) simply because you haven't been among us long enough to really get to know you.(member for less than 100 days)

Boonex needs Moderators who are "Corporate Ambassadors" representing and protecting their public image and reputation. see more We need to see that you have the company's best interests at heart before approving you. You have to prove your loyalty.

You became a Pundit yesterday (literally) and today you want to be a Moderator. I recommend that you learn what it means to be a Pundit for six months or so and then I will personally nominate you for Moderator or Chief Cook and Bottle Washer, or whatever.

I also strongly advise you new guys (wesways) who want to become Moderators that you show due respect to James Tadeo and DosDawg (Moderator Leadership) by contacting them and discussing your wish to join them "first".

I have been a CEO and Corporate Executive for 40 years and I am a real stickler for business protocol and nominating yourself is a "Taboo" practice because it is seen as self-serving. I don't think that's true of you. You seem like a really cool guy!

I will remain "Neutral" and not click thumbs up or down until we hear from the Moderator Captains.
