2017 Moderator Election

Hello Everyone :)

I would like to nominate myself for this position.

To be honest, I am just learning my way through bitcoin, but still want to help those who are just starting their steps in this.

I came to know about Bitcoin before 2013 and it was on 2013 I had my first Bitcoin Transaction.

From that time, I was really fascinated about this, and was an avid user of this technology.

I don't have high reputation, but I have been trying my best to spend quality time for this StackExchange each day.

If I will be given this opportunity, I will try my best with my knowledge to help this forum and it's users.

Have a great day!

I would like to enter myself as a candidate.

I've been active on Bitcoin SE since 2013 and have been a pro-tem moderator since March 2014. Besides being a top contributor to the site both in maintenance tasks and content, I've initiated projects such as:

• Weeding out bad tags initiative 2014
• Retag of [mining]
• Weekly Topic Challenge

While I have a little less time compared to when I was studying, I'm still committed to Bitcoin.SE and would love to continue growing and maintaining the site after graduation. I'd be especially excited to collaborate with two new enthusiastic moderator colleagues.

As previously disclosed I've been a software engineer at BitGo, Inc. since April 2017. Living in California, I'm in UTC-7.

Please also see my answers to the Moderator Questionnaire, and my previous application to become a pro-tem moderator.

Thank you, for your interest in the election.

I would like to put myself forward for consideration.

I've been a member of this site for 4 months now, and in that time I've reached top 7 (nearly 6 ;) ) reputation-gained leaderboard for the year, and top 50 of all time. I have and will continue to dedicate a lot of time to the site, as my Fanatic gold badge shows. In that time I've had my share of difficult members, but actively ensure I'm polite and professional.

I contribute to Bitcoin Core and have a reasonable understanding of a number of aspects of bitcoin, so while a moderator may not need such technical knowledge to moderate effectively, I would consider it a definite bonus. And I'm not afraid to ask for help if I'm out of my depth.

My time zone is NZT (UTC+12) which means I'm sometimes awake while other moderators may be asleep, giving good timezone coverage.

I would like to be a moderator because I'm already active in the review queues, and see this as a natural progression to helping keep the site clean, healthy and growing. I regularly visit the meta site and the mempool chat for bitcoin.SE so feel free to find me there and have a chat :)

I would like to nominate myself for Moderator.

Although I have only been an active member of the Bitcoin StackExchange for 5 months, I have fairly consistently maintained the top spot in the reputation leagues (with occasional dips in weekly rankings) since I became active.

I am a Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Armory developer so I have a strong understanding of Bitcoin's internal workings. While this is not necessarily a requirement for being a moderator, it can certainly be useful in determining whether something is spam and nonsensical or not.

As a moderator of the Bitcointalk.org Technical Support and Development and Technical Discussion sub-forums, I have experience with moderating. Although moderating a forum and moderating this StackExchange are different, many of the same things done on Bitcointalk can be applied here.

Lastly, I have also been fairly active in the review queues to help with cleaning up and maintaining the site so having a moderator position feels like the next step forward in helping Bitcoin SE.

Thank you for your consideration.
