In my case, it is not a task I _want_. It is just one I will _accept_. Sort of a responsibility everyone here has, actually. If you want a forum where personal attacks are limited, SPAM is limited, etc., then you have to "pay the piper". I've been moderator several times. I would be perfectly happy to never be a moderator again. But I am willing to do it from time to time since we all have a responsibility to keep CCC alive and functional... If I don't get a single vote, it won't hurt my feelings whatsoever. And I won't be disappointed in any way. If I win, I'll simply do whatever it takes to make things run smoothly until the next election, where I will most likely not accept any nomination, since "variety is the spice of life" and that holds for moderators as well...
