Yes, you can. Bsh1 will be the best person to contact if you want a thread locked.

Yes, but it is harder for us to lock a thread on request, because they serve as communicative platforms.

I think bsh1 knows how much you want to be a moderator. I don't think more comments would improve your stances unless you have a software engineering degree (unlikely) or have worked on another site. More than likely bsh1 would resort to maturely (If RM: Immaturely) asking you to stop.

My advice:

  • Bribe bsh1
  • Wait 10 years so that you have a software engineering degree
  • Keeping spamming if you think bsh1 would have a change in heart to pick you
  • There are others but I can't think of it right now

All these posts were just jokes lol, I think bsh knows I would never purposefully spam or annoy anyone, it's not like I'm actively campaigning or anything xD   

It's really not that deep

That's understandable. I suppose it is a bit of a compliment to be asked. The responsibility was not something I eagerly leaped at, though.

Mine is really short. Yours just shows how dumb it can get. It was funny though.

I mean eventually at your current rate I would say he would've said that. I was simply state what would occur if you kept on the same course.

Don't really like it anymore. Joke doesn't work when it is so similar to the one I just listened too.

In seriousness, I am a moderator who is only called in when the acting moderators must recuse themselves from a case.

Castin is a moderator that is brought out in moments of special need. Like Steven Hibberts character in Pulp Fiction.
