Question

What if OS had some election thing for regular users choosing new ambis and other things such as the US elections ?

Answer 1

I already supposed that idea but people said that people will make fake account and vote for themselfs

Answer 2

i thought that a good idea but people didn't liked it

Answer 3

All the popular people would be voted for, and lesser known people that may be awesome for the position wouldn't get it.

Answer 4

Well, you could tell if people make a fake account, so there has to be a certain limit to a certain smartscore you need to vote.

Answer 5

i really want this to happen!!!

Answer 6

people could vote from ip adress

Very true. Position for Ambi needs to be earn, not my popularity

Answer 8

@sleepyjess

Well, all the popular people became ambassadors in the recent cohort.

Answer 9

yes i wanted that too but people refused

Answer 10

because they were the best 9 that fit the bill

Answer 11

well we could just search u the ip adress of that account and see if it matches with the fake account :)

Answer 12

Ambassadors should be chosen wisely by their actions, not by popularity

Answer 13

Also, there could be a popular user on the chats that gets voted for, but may not seem fit to be an ambi.

Answer 14

wait what if moderators select who can be elected.....

Answer 15

what if moderators choose who you can choose from

Answer 16

It's an awful idea. Friends would vote friends cause they are their friends, not because their actions are Ambassador Worthy

Answer 17

The arrows were meant for Star's comment

Answer 18

And many, and I meany MANY trolls sign up for Ambassador

Answer 19

And then there is the people who hate other people, so they will vote someone else that might not be worthy of becoming an Ambassador so just the person you do hate doesn't become an Ambassador, but that person you hate could be Ambassador worthy

Note that all 99ers are popular.

Answer 21

This is why moderators choose and not other users

Answer 22

so the idea about moderators choosing who can be elected is a bad idea?

Answer 23

Not all 99ers are popular

Answer 24

That's a true fact. Most people only know the 99ers hat are popular, but there is still lots of 99ers who aren't

Answer 25

no what if moderators choose 2 99ers that's very helpful and that can be elected

Answer 26

It's just a bad idea all together.

Moderators are the ones that choose ambis in the first place, I don't see the difference... :3

Answer 28

i have no chance of being an ambi in that case :/

Answer 29

It's better to be a Helper than to be an Ambi.

Answer 30

Other people don't know your record as well as mods either. Trust me if this was a thing, most great AMbassadors now won't even be here
